Summary
“Ilias!” Brynjolf exclaimed, turning and throwing his arms wide—notably, he was not carrying a large, heavy crate—as he walked backwards. “Welcome to Solitude, and the biggest opportunity for, ah, profit you and I have ever had.”
“This idea was not yours,” Ilias-Tei muttered, each ‘s’ bringing forth a small snake-like hiss from her voice due to her immense irritation. “Also, it’s Ilias-Tei, for the thousandth time.”
“What’s a new nickname between friends?” Brynjolf said, his odd Bruma brogue scraping at Ilias-Tei’s last nerve. It had been a very, very long journey from Riften.
“I’ll give you a nickname,” she quipped.

Summary
Alduin has been dead for four years, or so everyone thinks. The Dragonborn has gone missing for three years, and it takes everything for his two sisters to coupe with it. At odds with each other, an unknown enemy blind-sides them while at their weakest. Will they be able to overcome their differences to save their brother? Will they be able to fight this new enemy before they tear the world apart?
(This story will be a tad slow for the first 6-ish chapters; the main, Dawnguard, and Dragonborn DLC have been altered to fit future chapters. Also take note that I have changed some lore on vampires, werebeasts, and the dragonborn. Some are minor some are major. Tag updates as I go along.)

Summary
At least three Daedra have a valid claim on the Dragonborn's soul, and several more are eager to make a deal. The odds of taking home the prize upon the Drovahkiin's demise are low, but the wager is worth the attempt.
Just when the Dragonborn thought he had escaped his past and established a place for himself with the Nightingales, Clavicus Vile, fearing for his primacy, has come to collect early. The chase - and the fight for the Dovahkiin's soul - is on.

Summary
All during the great Nordic invasion, Skyrim is attacked by all the giants in Skyrim having left their collective reservation and burning and pillaging as they go. But who will take up the sword in the Dragonborn's place when women and children are being slaughtered and even the Dragonborn's wife Ysolda is taken? This is the story that cemented Erik the slayer in his own right as a hero of Skyrim. As the protege of the Dragonborn Erik's own legend is included as the 14th part of The Storm Jubilee. Enjoy a great battle of vampires, werewolves, giants, daedra, Nightingales, and the Companions all.

Summary
This began as an exploration of Elder Scrolls lore through the eyes, and adventures, of the Last Dragonborn. It got away from me.
Act 4: The First Dragonborn is dead; his soul, his power, his knowledge, and his unfulfilled fate, added to that of the Last Dragonborn. It is time for Alexa to return to Skyrim and decide what being the Last Dragonborn means; not just for herself but for the world.

Summary
Brand, an exiled young thief from Valenwood, makes his way across Skyrim headed for Riften, where he heard there’s a Thieves Guild that will take people like him under their wing. He makes his grandest entrance yet when he stumbles into the Guild after nearly drowning in a Riften canal. Mercer proposes a test -- the infamous Goldenglow Job, but Brand is more interested in why the Guild listens to this Maven Black-Briar lady. The more he runs into her, the more he dislikes her. Can no one see how manipulative the woman is? As Brand rises through the ranks of the Guild, events come to a head. Mercer gets more secretive, the Guild’s troubled past comes out, and Maven Black-Briar just keeps popping up. So Brand sets out to do the one, or rather three, things that no one else has dared - confront Mercer, challenge Maven, and rebuild the Guild.

Summary
“I will go, if you want me to, Dragonborn,” I spoke just above a whisper, feeling the heat from her body radiate outwards, inhaling the smell of the sweat in her hair and the blood under her tunic. She only shook her head, placing the wine down on the heavy desk. Her fingers lingered for a moment, wrapped around the neck of the bottle.
“What if I want you to stay?” she asked, shy under the hard mask of a young woman who defends the soft parts of herself with tooth and claw. I’d gladly bleed and bruise to feel the delicate parts of her, body yes, perhaps soul as well.

Morwen Nox is an ambitious, doom-driven adventurer and skilled thief. Kaidan is a brooding bounty hunter with a mysterious past, and a life debt to pay. Their paths cross as the Thalmor narrow in on the Blades' presence in Skyrim, while tensions between two political powers continues to mount. As the pair grow close, whether it be by fate or something more human, the Season Unending approaches.

The Nightingales, Volume 3, by Gallus Desidenius by HopeStoryteller
Fandoms: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
14 Sep 2020
Tags
Summary
Volume 3 of the books that describe the Nightingales.
Alternate description: I attempt to write a lorebook. Perhaps it can be found ingame, if you're exceptionally lucky. Perhaps, if Karliah likes you enough, she'll let you borrow it. Perhaps, if you give it back, she finally moves on from Gallus and is available as a follower and a marriage candidate.
There is of course a perfectly functional mod for making Karliah a follower and potentially marriageable but it doesn't have this, now, does it?Series

Summary
Assassinate the man considered to be the single most powerful crime boss in all Tamriel? Well, it's a job, and it pays—quite handsomely, in fact! For one reckless warrior, that's really all it takes. It's not as if it's her most foolish endeavor yet . . . The most prominent obstacle on her path, then, seems to be one very confused Orc.

Memphius never expected to even leave the top of the mountain, let alone get himself tangled in a mess of thieves, dragons, jarl pissing contests, sex, and falling in love.
Eh. It was bound to happen, anyway.

Aeolus AUs (help me, this guy is fun to brainstorm) by CharbroilLaFlamme
Fandoms: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
26 May 2018
Tags
Summary
I made a batch of AUs for my elf! Some spoilers among them so be careful!
Disclaimers:
— Aeolus is not canonically Dragonborn, Nightingale, Thief, Listener, Werewolf, Vampire, or Companion. He’s just a Thalmor agent that thinks he’s cool.
— This stuff is mostly unedited so it’s not very pretty.
— This stuff is just for fun.
— This guy doesn’t fit in any romance AUs, I swear.And if y’all’d like to see these AUs then go ahead ‘n’ say, I need the inspiration.
