Inheritance
The year is 4E 218, 17 years since Alduin the world-eater was vanquished by the Last Dragonborn; and Alarne a young nord having only just reached manhood has finally discovered the last known location of his parents. And so only days before his birthday he uses the cover of night to sneak out of Solitude, the city that has been his whole world up until now; with the help of his friend the Solitude stable boy Blaise he manages to acquire a horse for his travels. Yet fearing the wrath of Katla along with Alarne's elder sisters, Blaise decides to tag along and he is grudgingly accepted.
Alarne, son of the Dragonborn
Growing up in the shadow of the Dragonborn has left Alarne seeking a way to prove himself to the world and his quest to find his parents has provided him with just that. And so just a week before his 16th birthday he sets off in search of his parents.
Blaise
An orphan living on Katla’s Farm during the events of Skyrim; while he may be several years Alarne’s senior the two share a bond of friendship that ignores this difference. Due to the beatings the two would receive from Alarne’s sisters he holds a fear of them that is most obvious when Runa is in a bad mood.
Runa Fair-Shield
One of Alarne’s adopted sisters; Runa aspired to be a warrior to prove to those around her that she can do anything better than the boys can. Although she is strict with her younger brother, she cares for him deeply to the point that she becomes furious with him and Blaise when he is placed in danger.
Sofie
Often the peace keeper between Runa and their younger brother; Sofie is more likely to simple stand and watch a conversation, only interjecting when she thinks it is necessary. After having lost two sets of parents she tends to hide her thoughts and feelings behind a mask of calm acceptance; so far Alarne has been the only one capable of breaking this mask.
Sheliah aka Black Rose
A Dunmer who to the general public is known as Thane Sheliah if Riften; amongst the citizens of Riften it is rumoured that she is the one keeping Jarl Maven Black-Briar leashed, and as such is well liked. Yet what very few known is that she is also the feared criminal Black Rose; the Listener to the Night Mother and the Master of the Thieves Guild.
This character was born from a combination of my own imagination and what I know of my proof-reader.
