Hey Neo, is the Chancellor still your character? I was thinking about giving him a name other than that, and a last name as well, but I am hesitating because I assume you still have things for him. I'm in the process of reworking Freyr's background and will soon edit the earlier post on the sign-ups with this new, accurate information so it won't confuse people later on. Best to get it out of the way now. What I said in our PM thread still holds true. I haven't worked on his background at all since then, so you can have him, so long as you keep the core elements of his backstory I've already created. You can give him whatever name you wish, providing it's within canon.

I can review over that little PM. How does... Avitus Maximus sound?

This isn't regular Avitus. This is Maximus Avitus.

This isn't regular Avitus. This is Maximus Avitus. From sources, that would translate into "Maximum ancestral" It is quite odd. Perhaps I should consider swapping out Avitus. Originally, if I took out Maximus, his father and mother's given names would mean "ancestral heaven" or, if I kept Maximus and did away with Avitus, it would transform into "Maximum heaven" How difficult.

I was s***posting though, so don't let my ramblings discourage you.

No, that was actually a good suggestion to put Maximus first. It seems like it would fit if I'm going by family values for naming. You gave me a good idea whether or not you were crap posting. Thank you.

Golurk, do you still object to Elena having the Hysteria spell? I need to know before I can post.

Sorry this post is taking me so long. For whatever reason, I'm having trouble wording it correctly. But I should have it up sometime tonight, or tomorrow morning.

I've finally got the wording right for the next post, so it will definitely be up tonight. However, it's a pretty big post, and I only have an hour before I have to leave for rehearsal. And some of that time is required for me to shower, change into clothes more appropriate for rehearsal, etc. So I don't have time to finish the post now. But I have saved the post onto my computer, and as soon as I get back from rehearsal, somewhere around 10:20-11:00 PM, I'll finish writing. So it's in the works!

Gratz Gourk, you have officially lost me.

What do you mean by that?

It was just so random and out of the blue, and I have absolutely no idea what you're referring to.

I think I'm lost in Sithis tbh. Since the world isn't my own, it's hard o establish rules, customs, and play around with certain things when it has an established canon set for it. In fact, it's quite restricting.
I'm very much interested in Aurelia and Freyr's development and role in the story, but I'm a little lost in that as well tbh. I think it's best if I pan out an arc from everyone else's characters. Freyr should be easy to write since his and Serlen's situation is identical in every respect, so I know what type of character I want him to be.
I want him to be gruff and callous by the end while also being a good strategist. Basically, he'll be recruiting the remnants of the Imperials to his cause to form an army. He'll be quite genre savvy as well, since I'm going to make him a total bookworm.
For Aurelia, I imagine her to be seeking her own goal while with him. More like his assassin than anything if I'm being honest here.
But really, it's only... What the hell is the empire called anyway? The Cyrodiil Empire? Does it even have a name, or is it simple called The Empire?

It's mainly just called the Empire, though it's also sometimes called the Cyrodiilyc(Spelling?) Empire, or the Second Empire.

Is there any else I need to know about it besides the Imperials being good merchants, have a senate(probably due to Chancellor), and other things? Without me using the UESP wiki as I've already done that, and it gave me exactly what I just posted. One day I should get this game and a console tbh. Then I wouldn't have to ask or use a wiki.

Actually, while it could help you gain some perspective on things, all these details are spread across five games (well, I guess six now with the MMO). And most of those details are from the in-game books, some of which are hard to cone across, and other things from NPC dialogue. Honestly, if you read stuff on UESP and supplement experience with the game with things like Let's Plays (make sure it's not a mod, btw) that's about as good as you can get.
