Auriana Valoria - Dragonborn Nerevarine

It's about time I uploaded a proper portrait of my oldest PC/OC. This is Auriana Valoria, my namesake character, who originated in TES III: Morrowind and, along with Rhaine Alcinea (my Forgotten Realms D&D/Neverwinter Nights 2 character), has been one of my most beloved characters ever. Over the years, she's been my avatar in three Elder Scrolls games (Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim), and has developed her own story that is quite the deviation from ES canon.

According to my version of the world, the Nerevarine is the Aunt of my Champion of Cyrodiil (Alessandra Traianus - deceased), and the Great Aunt of five Dragonborn siblings who feature in Skyrim: Aleksander, Svanhildr, Hjordis, Astryd, and Ylva Caelestrys. She has just recently discovered her own Dovahkiin status in her encounters with Miraak, the First Dragonborn. Careful, resourceful, and cunning, this Imperial woman has survived through the end of the Third Era and into the Fourth in part due to her half-cured Corprus disease, which prevents her body from aging. She has also mostly retreated from the main events of the world, but she has recently begun to plot against the tyranny of the Thalmor...

Auriana is shown here wearing some facsimile of the Her Hands Ordinator Armor. Her symbol, the Moon-and-Star, is shown in the upper left-hand corner, which is surrounded by her name in Daedric letters.

Hope you like her!
