So how many days between Darkfall Caves and Solitude? I've been looking on the map, but I can't estimate it by distance because I don't know how fast people travel in Skyrim.

Skyrim is only 14 square miles in the game, but by comparing the geographical size of Skyrim to the in game size of Hammerfell in Daggerfall, it's much much bigger, about the size of Canada IIRC.

Hmm... So you're saying the travel time would be off? I was planning on just going to Darkfall and walking from there to Solitude. Do you have a better idea, Golurk?

I see what you did Neo. You made Nocturnal Tsundere didn't you?

As for geography, I just based it off of an estimate using the in-game times I'm used to, since I had no access rigt now. It was something along three hours from the cave to Dragon Bridge.

I see what you did Neo. You made Nocturnal Tsundere didn't you? Kinda. But there is a legitimate reason why. When Sithis returned, his presence in Tamriel upset the balance of Aetherius and the Cosmos as a whole. Then, when he forced the Daedric Lords to submit and killed the Nine Divines, this further tipped the scales, and had unexpected consequences. Sithis was unable to absorb the power of the Divines, for reasons unknown, and their now ownerless powers went wild, corrupting the Source.The magic flowing from Aetherius began to induce side effects on anything too close to the Source. Anything without a strong will and high tolerance to magic is killed immediately. And the Daedric Lords began to feel the effects as well. Each of them felt the effects differently. The most powerful of the Princes only experienced minor effects; Mehunres Dagon is now prone to bouts of uncontrollable laughter. But Nocturnal wasn't as lucky. She began to lose control of her emotions, and her entire personality changed as a result. Now you can imagine why my character's time with her was so... Interesting. Imagine living with a bipolar goddess who wants to smite you one moment and make love to you the next. |

Just so y'all know, Lorelei wears glass armor and uses a glass bow, but they're made with blue malachite like Chillrend. I have no intentions to use Chillrend though, I was just using the coloration as something to make her armor different, and it shows that the simpler life she's living now is obviously not the one she lived originally.
Also, despite having been the Archmage, I have a reason why she doesn't currently know any expert or master rank spells. So it all makes sense in-universe, and it stays within the rules.

Ooh, the Archmage... I didn't know that.  Also, just a quick question. Do we currently have anyone with characters in the Thieves Guild? I have plans for the Guild, especially the Guildmaster, other two Nightingales, and a certain member named Kya. But I don't want any discrepancies, so I need to know if I have to plan with anyone. If you all would like, I could just post the general info on the Guild here. Spoiler free, of course. |

No. Nocturnal x Varren is not OTP. Well, Maybe. Haven't decided yet, since his relationship with Kya is star crossed. Is that even allowed though? ...Yeah. I'm questioning the rules in my own RP. |

Not the Skyrim Thieves Guild besides Avenicci being a rival, no.

Ooh, the Archmage... I didn't know that. After you said that we could have our characters be whoever, I decided to edit Lorelei's bio. I have no idea why I chose to make her the former Archmage of the College of Winterhold, I just did, and everything else has fallen into place. |

I'm going to wait for now and let Golurk post. But for now, SMEX can post in Austur, right? Please?  |

I fear what Alucard will try to do to Elia. I had a hard enough time letting it happen to a random NPC with no backstory, so you might have some idea of how it will feel to try it on a character I like. But I suppose I can push my feelings aside and write.

Considering certain details and the plans for the battle against Alucard, I can easily get Elia out of pretty much any dangerous situation right now. So as long as it doesn't go too far before I get to post, nothing will happen.

Well, that covers the two most obvious jokes about things that were in Oblivion, but removed in Skyrim.
