The Lady of Uvirith (Better Together)

This is an admittedly bizarre idea that was cracking me up for a while. So even though it is incredibly surreal and meta, I drew it anyway.
Basically, I was wondering who was the Lord/Lady of Uvirith when you don’t join House Telvanni. Turns out Reynel Uvirith is the Lady of Uvirith. But I died laughing when I saw the picture because Reynel Uvirith has the exact same face and robes and hair color/texture etc as my Steen did. So as a joke I decided that Reynel Uvirith was Steen and that Steen was Reynel Uvirith. Reynel “Steen” Uvirith, I guess.
So this hypothetical bizarro-Steen, let’s call her Neets, never joined House Telvanni and wishes to go see who ended up becoming Aryon’s protege and building Tel Uvirith anyway.

Congratulations Aryon, now you have two of them! (Steen is known to be a challenging protege)


A Killer Personality

A Killer Personality

I was in a goofy mood, so I drew this.

I guess it is a good thing that Steen doesn’t have any problems fulfilling her duties, then! Although honestly, as a low-born nightblade, I’m sure Steen is no stranger to “quiet work.” Indeed, I’m pretty sure that particular work experience is why Master Aryon hired her in the firstplace. And boy does Aryon put it to use. A lot.

Can’t be squeamish in Steen’s line of work!

Telvanni Outfits

Master Aryon’s Traveling Kit

I tried to imagine Master Aryon dressed casual and practical for traveling.
The inspiration was the note in his Dwemer Museum, recommending the visitor come back often as he is always acquiring new artifacts on his travels. This suggests that he is not above a bit of adventuring and wandering around in random holes in the ground (similar to what Steen does in her free time). Of course, he would not be all decked out in his full Telvanni raiment whilst doing so. Hence this drab and rugged little number: ready to weather the most violent ash storm, yet comfortable and flexible for mobility.

Archmagistress of House Telvanni

Inversely, I always draw Steen in her worn old traveling clothes, without much finery (and I’m uncreative with outfits), so I tried to imagine what Archmagistress Steen would like like in full-on Telvanni finery. I wanted it to be super ostentatious and extravagant. I’m still playing around with the ideas, clearly, but at least she doesn’t look like she just came back from a week-long mountaineering expedition. Maybe Aryon pleaded with her to try to not wear something covered in dirt to a big important function, so she threw this together. I mean, she was a low-born nightblade, so… something something new money. I don’t know.
