you look strong. come to jorrvaskr and be a companion.
Daewen hopped down the slight hillside, the huge towering image of Dragonsreach finally visible in the distance, and sprinted over to the path that would take her into Whiterun. Her long, dark hair fanned out behind her as she ran along the path.
She heard shouts in the distance, and a booming, garbled roar followed. A giant? Not this close to a town, surely? She ran ahead, bow at the ready and saw the beast surrounded by three people.
A woman, standing far back with a bow in her hand, shooting the giant with deadly accuracy. She was wearing very old armour. Daewen knew from books she'd read while trying to pass time in inns across Valenwood and Cyrodiil that it was the armour ancient Nords wore, but was very rarely made any more. Her face was covered in striking green war paint, a style that Nords often wore also, and surrounded by long, red hair. She was making the archery look almost effortless. Shooting arrows at the giant at great speed, grabbing another one from the quiver on her back and in seconds that one was gone too.
Another woman, smaller, with a one handed sword, jabbing at the thing nervously and then stepping back a few paces. Daewen could tell she was very scared to be fighting this thing. She was lightly armoured, only wearing a set of studded armour to protect herself. She didn't look much older than Daewen also. She had short brown hair with braids tied into it, and dark war paint that Daewen guessed she's applied to make herself look fiercer. It didn't really work.
The third was a man. A huge guy with a huge two handed sword swinging at the giant and even tanking a few hits to shield the smaller woman. He wore a mismatched set of armour, some steel armour, some imperial bracers and boots, he was not as well presented as the two women, clearly. He had very dark, very messy hair that stuck to his face as it became sweaty from moving around and swinging his sword at the giant. His war paint surrounded his eyes as if they'd been scratched by something with claws. All in all he definitely looked like a very impressive warrior.
Daewen drew her bow and held her breath. They hadn't noticed her yet. If she could snipe the giant from here she figured she'd be praised pretty highly by the time she caught up with them. She released the arrow and watched as the giant fell down, almost at the same time. She'd missed her chance, it was done.
She heard a masculine voice yell out as she shoved her bow back onto her back walked along the path towards the group. Shit. She shot him. She was just trying to help and she shot a random stranger. A random stranger who could definitely kick her ass if he turned out to be less than friendly. The arrow was only in his arm, mostly blocked by armour, but she figured he'd still be pretty pissed with her.
The group of three looked around and noticed Daewen. The older of the two women walked over to her while the younger sat with the man and tried to pull the arrow out, wincing at the small amount of blood coming out.
"Well, that's taken care of. No thanks to you." the older woman said sternly. Daewen tried to defend herself, to say that she was trying to help when the woman cut her off, "and to make things worse you shot Farkas. I thought wood elves were supposed to be good with a bow?"
"I was coming over to see if he was okay, actually. It's not my fault if you killed the thing just was I was about to help. Are you always this rude to strangers?" Daewen retorted, folding her arms across her chest and looking at the other woman angrily. Behind her, she saw the man finally stand up, barely bleeding as the armour had stopped the arrow from lodging itself too far into his arm.
"Leave her alone Aela, she was only trying to help. We're never going to get new recruits if this is the impression you're giving of us, you know." he said. He turned to face Daewen, "We're members of the companions. Kinda like the Fighters Guild, but with more honour. We live up there in Jorvasskr, come see us if you think you're good enough. I promise I'll keep this one off your back." He nods towards Aela and smirks.
Daewen felt something inside her seeing him smile. A warm feeling, something she'd never felt before. The three companions left her beside the dead giant and walked up the path towards Whiterun. She composed herself and followed a bit behind. Making her way into Whiterun she asked one of the guards where she could stay for the night and was pointed towards the Bannered Mare.
As she climbed into her rented bed her mind was swimming with thoughts of the man she'd met earlier. She realised he'd never mentioned his name. She knew she had to go to them. Firstly to meet this man again. Secondly, to show that Aela who the better archer was. Even if she did need a lot of practise first.
--------
Early the next morning Daewen hopped out of bed, dressed herself, grabbed her bow and left the Bannered Mare. It was chilly out. Daewen wasn't yet used to Skyrim's climate and was dreading having to go much further north in the future. It was always pretty warm in Valenwood, and cyrodiil wasn't too cold either, but Skyrim was something else. She rubbed her hands together to try and create some warmth, but ultimately decided that getting moving would be the best way to avoid being cold.
She wasn't familiar with Whiterun, or anywhere in Skyrim, really. She'd crossed into the country by Falkreath and was picked up by some Imperial Officers who thought she was with the Stormcloak rebels. She'd tried for hours to explain to them that she was not a Stormcloak, and that the Stormcloaks would not even let her into their army because she was of elven descent.
Eventually, she was plopped into the back of a carriage with an actual Stormcloak rebel, a simple horse thief and what turned out to be Ulfric Stormcloak himself. The carriage ended up in Helgen. And Helgen was almost the end of her life. She watched, utterly terrified as Stormcloak after Stormcloak was sent to the block and executed.
Then it was her turn. She was ordered to the block, the executioner's axe already dripping with the blood of all those who had been murdered before her. She kneeled down. There was a roar. Everyone looked at the sky. Another roar. Fire. Buildings crumbled before her. People were killed, both Imperial and Stormcloak. It was a dragon. A huge dragon, with pitch black scaled skin and enormous wings.
She barely escaped that day. She didn't really know how to feel about it, though. On one hand, she was grateful that the dragon had chosen that exact moment to attack, saving her life, but on the other hand a lot more innocent people had been killed. She shuddered just thinking about it. She was supposed to tell the Jarl of Whiterun about the attack, but it could wait. She didn't want to have to recount the whole thing to him just yet. But she would, in time.
Daewen looked toward the stairs leading up to the wind district, and then back down the path towards the town gate. If these people were was important as Aela seemed to make them sound, their Jorrvaskr, or whatever the man had called it, would probably be up the stairs.
Once up the stairs she could see a few different buildings surrounding a large, dead looking tree. Seeing the tree like this made Daewen feel quite sad. Coming from Valenwood she'd had a love of nature and plantlife drilled into her from a very young age. She thought about asking around town about the tree eventually, see if she could help it in any way. She sat on one of the benches below it for a moment to make a note in the journal she'd picked up from the Riverwood trader on her way through the town.
There were more steps behind the tree leading up to Dragonsreach. Definitely not the way to Jorvasskr. so it had to be one of the two buildings here. On her left was a small building, which looked to be some sort of temple, so that left the only other building on this level of the city. It looked like a huge overturned longboat. There were two sets of double doors on the front of the building, and the walls were adorned with shields. The whole place looked very impressive.
Daewen psyched herself up and walked to one of the doors and pushed it open. The inside was even more impressive than the outside. It was a great hall with a long fire pit running through the middle, surrounded by a table completely covered in all kinds of food and drink. Weapons and shields hung from the walls. There were a lot of people,but no one seemed to see her enter. There was a lot of noise coming from one end of the hall. Daewen noticed two people, a man and a woman, were brawling, and many of the other occupants were standing around them, watching and cheering.
She scanned the room for the man she met yesterday but she couldn't see him. She stood on her tiptoes to try and see if he was among the commotion at the end of the room but she couldn't see him there either. She was about to give up and return later in the day when a door opened directly opposite her on the other side of the room. The man walked in, followed by another much smaller man. The two sat down at the table and grabbed a tankard each.
Daewen hopped down the few steps into the middle of the room and walked around the table to where the two men were sitting. The smaller one noticed her first. His eyes were bloodshot and he smelled like old mead.
"Well hey there, pretty elf, not seen you around here before" he slurred at her, spilling his drink across the table. The other man turned to see who he was talking to.
"Hey, you came!" he smiled at Daewen, ignoring the smaller man's advances, "I was hoping you would. It's really hard for us to get new blood around here, especially if Aela is their first contact with us" He pulled a chair out beside him and motioned for her to sit down.
"She doesn't scare me," Daewen replied, perching on the edge of the chair. He grabbed a sweet roll from the middle of the table and thrust it into her hands. She nibbled at it, not wanting to make herself look too greedy. It wasn't until she had taken a bite that she realised how hungry she was, having been too excited to get breakfast at the inn when she got up.

Daewen:
When they decided they would try to make it on their own.
It's a damn cold night Trying to figure out this life
I don't know who you are But I... I'm with you
Open your eyes and look outside, find the reasons why.
You've been rejected, and now you can't find what you left behind.
Kiss that Grrrl and I will shrink up
I've got more wit, a better kiss, a hotter touch, a better fuck
You've been rejected, and now you can't find what you left behind.
Farkas/Daewen:
daewen character log
this is a super confusing character log for daewen. because i've played two different saves of the same character under different coditions, parts of her story change. for example, when i'm her on xbox she is married to farkas, a companion and a werewolf. on pc, she's married to brynjolf and never met farkas. she'll always have cicero though.
Character name: Daewen Nightwind (Previously Riverrun)
Age: 21
Birthday: 1st Sun's Dawn 4E 181
Appearance: Wood elf.
Current: Greenish brown skin. Red eyes. Scar beneath one eye. White warpaint attempting to cover it. Smallish. Partly shaved head. Dark hair. (xbox only)
Character name: Daewen Nightwind (Previously Riverrun)
Age: 21
Birthday: 1st Sun's Dawn 4E 181
Appearance: Wood elf.
Current: Greenish brown skin. Red eyes. Scar beneath one eye. White warpaint attempting to cover it. Smallish. Partly shaved head. Dark hair. (xbox only)
Previous: much longer, lighter coloured hair. Orange/yellow eyes. this is her current look if playing on pc
What do you know about this character that she doesn't know yet?
What is this character's greatest flaw?
What do you know about this character that she would never admit?
What is this character's greatest asset?
If this character could choose a different identity, who would she be?
What music does this character sing when no one is around?
The Age of Aggression. She requested it from a song list given to her by a bard in the Bannered Mare without knowing it was a pro-imperial song. Although she disagrees with the line "Down with Ulfric, the killer of kings" she finds it super catchy.
In what or whom does this character have the greatest faith?
Mjoll the Lioness: Recovering Grimsever for Mjoll was one of the best things Daewen ever did, in her opinion. After that, Mjoll agreed to accompany her on her adventures, and even looked past the fact that Daewen had joined the Thieves Guild, a group that Mjoll often spoke her hatred of.
Mjoll values good friends, and Daewen has always been one to her, and now Daewen can trust that Mjoll will always have her back. If they're out together, she knows that (once she catches up, the difference in their types of armours keeps Mjoll from moving as quickly as Daewen does) Mjoll will always be right there in the fight keeping the bandits, creatures and forsworn away.
Cicero: As the Listener for the Night Mother Cicero will obey Daewen's every word without fail. He's a little bit annoying, though.
Farkas: He's a tasty werewolf. The two bonded over their fear of frostbite spiders. The two dated for a while, but Daewen's reluctance to join the Companions/Adventuring away and Farkas' being busy with Companions things caused the two to break up, but remain very close friends.
Does this character have a favourite article of clothing? Favourite shoes?
Guildmaster Armour set. (xbox timeline)
Rogue outfit or ancient falmer armour, deathbell flower crown (pc timeline)
Name this character's favourite person. (Living or dead)
Describe this character's most embarrassing moment.
She tends to accidentally Dragonrend things instead of using Unrelenting Force?
What is this character's deepest regret?
Never getting to the vampires soon enough. She's lost a few good friends to them and wishes that she'd been more alert. Now she always checks behind her when entering a town a night just in case. She has left the Dawnguard behind, however. She only worked with them to stop Harkon and the vampire attacks, and will only go back to Fort Dawnguard to check in on Serana and Beleval.
What is this character's greatest fear?
Frostbite Spiders.
Describe this characters most devastating moment.
Once she walked into the Riften hall of the dead, it must have been after a vampire attack, and was seeing who had died and found Aerin's coffin. She had no idea that Aerin had died, or how long ago it had been. Now Mjoll walks around Riften on her own. It's pretty sad.
What is this characters greatest achievement?
Becoming Guild Master for the Thieves Guild. Yes, she's rid the world of a dragon who was going to destroy everyone and she's basically in charge of Skyrim's faction of the Dark Brotherhood, but neither of those things, or any of the other things she's done will ever feel as good as being Guild Master. It was also pretty cool getting into the tribute chest. Daewen loves shiny things.
What is this characters greatest hope?
That one day Brynjolf won't be busy.
(he's no longer busy on the pc timeline)
Does this character have an obsession. Name it.
She collects wooden plates pretty obsessively. She had a safe in her basement full of them.
What is this character's greatest disappointment?
In the xbox timeline, she's joined the Companions and is pretty disappointed whenever she gets back from a job for them and only receives 100 gold.
What is this characters worst nightmare?
Cronvangr Cave.
Whom does this character most wish to please? Why?
The Night Mother, obviously. Daewen's always tried to carry out her contracs as well as she can, and often takes Cicero on assassinations with her as a second.
Describe this character's mother.
Pengae Riverrun (Was Willowsky before marriage). Daewen's mother was a beautiful woman. Very womanly and feminine. Long hair, no warpaint. Very against crime, but loves a bad boy (Which Daewen's father was!!) Was devestated when Daewen had to leave, even though she paid her sisters a lot more attention. From a very wealthy family.
Describe this character's father.
Dirding Riverrun. Was a bad boy in his younger days. Mostly pranks, nothing harmful. Loved Pengae from the moment he met her. Very close to his daughter as she was growing up, but grew progressively more disappointed in her as she began stealing. Tried to stop her stealing but her love for shiny things was too much. Eventually asked her to leave the family, which is when she left for Skyrim, to join the Thieves Guild there.
Where does this character fall in birth order? What effect does this have?
Youngest of four children. She has three siblings, two sisters; twins, and a brother. Daewen's mother spent more time with the twins than her other children which could have lead to Daewen's troubled behaviour as she was trying to gain the attention of her mother. She still loves her sisters, however and spent a lot of time with them before she had to leave. She mostly looks up to her brother who became her best friend, he promised to follow her into Skyrim one day and meet with her again.
Describe this character's siblings or other close relatives.
Covan, Belwen and Cirwen. Belwen a few hours older than Cirwen. Both three years older than Daewen. Both very feminine, like Pengae. Belwen often wears her hair up, with a full fringe cut just above her eyes. She has a few ear piercings and loves to show them off. Mostly wears mid length dresses and boots. Sleeps in a large shirt from her Orsimer boyfriend. Her mother is slowly warming to him. At least her can look after her. Works with him at a smithy. Only good at making arrows.
Cirwen inherited her mothers lightly curled hair, and she wears it down. Unlike most Bosmer is awful with a bow. Wears quite revealing clothing. No partner. No job.
Corvan. Oldest of the four. Very close to Daewen, would protect her from anything. Very good at sneaking, loves poisons, very muscular. Always wears hair in high ponytail. Shaved underside.
List the choices (not circumstances) that have lead this character to her current predicament.
She chose to join the Dark Brotherhood rather than destroy it.
List the circumstances over which this character has no control.
She is the Dragonborn
What wakes this character in the middle of the night?
When she actually sleeps, she is occasionally woken by Cicero. Sometimes he'll be awake, talking to himself about the Night Mother, or talking to the Night Mother (Who obviously isn't there) about everything he's done with Daewen during the day. At first Daewen would tell Cicero to shush, but she became used to it after a while and actually enjoys listening to it. Although he's completely mad, he has a great memory and is says quite nice things about her. She doesn't let him know that she is awake.
Brynjolf probably wakes her a lot in the pc timeline. ;)
Who depends on this character? Why?
Pretty much everyone on Nirn, I suppose. She was the only one able to sort the Alduin problem.
Write one additional thing about your character.
From Greenheart, Valenwood. She had to leave because she had been caught stealing too many times. She was young and quite clumsy back then, she's a master at it now. It was her father who asked her to leave.
NOTES:((Elven ears are EXTREMELY sensitive to the touch, and are usually considered erogenous zones.))
What is this character's greatest flaw?
What do you know about this character that she would never admit?
What is this character's greatest asset?
If this character could choose a different identity, who would she be?
What music does this character sing when no one is around?
The Age of Aggression. She requested it from a song list given to her by a bard in the Bannered Mare without knowing it was a pro-imperial song. Although she disagrees with the line "Down with Ulfric, the killer of kings" she finds it super catchy.
In what or whom does this character have the greatest faith?
Mjoll the Lioness: Recovering Grimsever for Mjoll was one of the best things Daewen ever did, in her opinion. After that, Mjoll agreed to accompany her on her adventures, and even looked past the fact that Daewen had joined the Thieves Guild, a group that Mjoll often spoke her hatred of.
Mjoll values good friends, and Daewen has always been one to her, and now Daewen can trust that Mjoll will always have her back. If they're out together, she knows that (once she catches up, the difference in their types of armours keeps Mjoll from moving as quickly as Daewen does) Mjoll will always be right there in the fight keeping the bandits, creatures and forsworn away.
Cicero: As the Listener for the Night Mother Cicero will obey Daewen's every word without fail. He's a little bit annoying, though.
Farkas: He's a tasty werewolf. The two bonded over their fear of frostbite spiders. The two dated for a while, but Daewen's reluctance to join the Companions/Adventuring away and Farkas' being busy with Companions things caused the two to break up, but remain very close friends.
Does this character have a favourite article of clothing? Favourite shoes?
Guildmaster Armour set. (xbox timeline)
Rogue outfit or ancient falmer armour, deathbell flower crown (pc timeline)
Name this character's favourite person. (Living or dead)
Describe this character's most embarrassing moment.
She tends to accidentally Dragonrend things instead of using Unrelenting Force?
What is this character's deepest regret?
Never getting to the vampires soon enough. She's lost a few good friends to them and wishes that she'd been more alert. Now she always checks behind her when entering a town a night just in case. She has left the Dawnguard behind, however. She only worked with them to stop Harkon and the vampire attacks, and will only go back to Fort Dawnguard to check in on Serana and Beleval.
What is this character's greatest fear?
Frostbite Spiders.
Describe this characters most devastating moment.
Once she walked into the Riften hall of the dead, it must have been after a vampire attack, and was seeing who had died and found Aerin's coffin. She had no idea that Aerin had died, or how long ago it had been. Now Mjoll walks around Riften on her own. It's pretty sad.
What is this characters greatest achievement?
Becoming Guild Master for the Thieves Guild. Yes, she's rid the world of a dragon who was going to destroy everyone and she's basically in charge of Skyrim's faction of the Dark Brotherhood, but neither of those things, or any of the other things she's done will ever feel as good as being Guild Master. It was also pretty cool getting into the tribute chest. Daewen loves shiny things.
What is this characters greatest hope?
That one day Brynjolf won't be busy.
