| Welcome to Brotherhood of Sithis. We hope you enjoy your visit. You're currently viewing our forum as a guest. This means you are limited to certain aspects of the board and there are some features you cannot use. If you would like to join our Elder Scrolls based community, you must create a character within the lore of the Elder Scrolls and write them a back story. Our story began approximately a year after the Oblivion Crisis, and it ranges all over Tamriel. Each Province is represented and usable. Please take the time to read the back stories of those who are already here before you write yours, so we do not have repeats of ideas. (Great minds, after all, do think alike!) We now have a section that takes place during and after the events in Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. This section does not in any way interact with the old one. Again, you are most welcome here! Once your story is complete, join up and post it! A Speaker will contact you, and you will be able to join a Sanctuary. Or, if you would rather not be a member of the Brotherhood, you can request to play another faction. It is rather flexible and good. If you have any questions, feel free to email Shivani at anonymous_celt@yahoo.com. Please note that The Elder Scrolls, The Dark Brotherhood, Sithis, and several of the NPCs are all owned by Bethesda Softworks. Join our community!

And when she's not doing that , she chats with her big Sis-me! LOL ! I have never met a more dedicated and brave soul in my entire life. She is not telling you the depth of emotional pain and physical pain she has been in, but both have been severe. (Her birthday is on 20th, by the way! ;) ) |

Oh, Shivani, I'm so sorry to hear about that. I send all my love, hugs and prayers to you and your family! Please know that I'm here for you if you wanna talk and I'll be online on Skype today so chat with me if you're up to it! You really are such a beautiful soul and I know it's easier said than done but I hope you still have a happy birthday anyway! (It's the 20th over here so I think I may be the first to wish you.) Xxxx *Many hugs* Edited by Aundae, Mar 20 2013, 03:40 AM.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, SHIVANI!!! Many Happy Returns to the most loyal and supportive Shivani! Newer members will not know, but Shivani has been my right hand for about seven years now, through thick and thin. In that time, we have fought many ogres, dealt with many trolls and kept this site going for you all to play in. The only time she has missed posting for a day was when she was in boot camp and allowed no PC! She will smile as she reads my final word to her as it's our clarion call to each other on Skype, YIM, and on one occasion, telephone (and several occasions bawling upstairs!) POSTIED!!! |

Hello, Tigerpaw! It's always lovely to have new members in our Sanctuaries. You will have gathered by now that you have arrived in a place of madness and Elder Scrolls fanaticism! I hope you will enjoy being among us. Never be worried about making suggestions for plot lines and so on. All we ask is that it is all kept within Elder Scrolls lore as far as can be managed. Famously, Bethesda sometimes play fast and loose with their own Lore, so sometimes, decisions have to be made to iron out these problems! If you have any problems, questions or grouches -talk to the Hand-The Black Hand! We try to be as available as much as possible and will try to sort things as soon as we can. So, as Listener, may I offer you the traditional greeting.... Welcome home! |

Thank you all for the welcome, It seems my char has dropped into Windhelm and seems to be already making a.... odd appearance, I will be poping in and out though out each day due to the fact i get to my computer at random times, on top of which I also like to do other things as well..... i am a gamer down to the core and tend to... shinny.... |

it seems... although the person I was thinking of hitting the dagger into was not the friend but a npc behind, however this still works. and also makes it more interesting :3 more plot twist are abound. |

Well, honestly, I can't remember the last time I logged in to post! Its been a while! If I'm ever on, I'm usually just lurking around in the dark and making sure everything's working properly, like a ghost should be doing. I have posted since Dar'Nava joined, I just totally forgot to actually post a welcome! That's just what happens when life catches up to you, I guess! So, welcome to Dar'Nava and RellisTigerpaw! |

Rellis was a slave as said in back story, due to this his existence has been based around goals that are not truly his own. he loves magic yes, however it is his old master (the listener of the old sanctuary/The Thief guild master before that) goal to be protected from magic and they saw Tigerpaw as a shield, little more. as such the Listener used Tigerpaw to gain magic and gain a upper hand in that area and keep his secret from most of the lower ranking. All in all this is the basic jist: Tigerpaw is messed up in the head due to being owned all his life, and dose not quite know how to do things otherwise. (Listener might have tried to get him out of it but did not quite get the job done... depending on personality.) |

Hi, there, Tigerpaw. Nice to meet ya! I really wish my welcome didn't have to come with a correction, but... Dude, there is only one Listener in the entire world. One. Not one per Province, not one per Sanctuary. One in the world. Only one person that the Night Mother speaks to. And the Listener that was alive during the Great War, while all of our characters were living their back stories, was in Bravil, in Cyrodiil. That's canon lore. They died defending the Night Mother's crypt. The coffin was then taken to Cheydinhal, where she was entrusted to Cicero for Keeping. When everyone died... he took her to Skyrim. First to Dawnstar, then to Falkreath, as is outlined in his journals. There was no Listener the entire time. Anyone claiming to be the Listener without speaking the Binding Words in the Keeping Tomes... Cicero killed or had killed. Lokir is the Listener, and *pauses for effect* there can be only one....

ok my mistake, my lack of knowledge on the lore and lack of research on that part. As for Correction i can think of a few things that can do this, First: switch it to a speaker, I know there is more then one speaker... or at least i hope so, Classes take up a lot of memory right now and don't have the extra space to put new information as of yet. Second: he could just be tied to a higher ranking official that had connections to the Dark Brotherhood. Those ideas are off the top of head but i need to get a few things done, will try to come up with more if those are unsatisfactory. again sorry about that. |

Thanks, Rellis, and thank you, Jhared! My Black Hand are very reliable! Speaker would work well, as there are four required for the Hand. It may be, (Beth muddying the waters, as usual), that the four Speakers who made up the Hand in Cyrodiil (Oblivion) were the most Senior and accomplished-and therefore those comprising the inner circle with the Listener, while there may have been others in outlying Provinces as overseers, or they may have been called by other titles. However, by Skyrim's advent, all the Speakers and the Listener are long gone, so it would be purely speculation, (and therefore open to our interpretation) who they were and where they were. As Jhared says, though, there is only ever one Listener. A contributing factor to Cicero's madness is that the Night Mother will not speak to him, no matter how well he tends her corpse. She will only speak to her Listener, and she chooses those individuals herself. That aside, I am thoroughly enjoying Rellis' story and appreciate that you have him keeping up the story in spite of all the things you need to do, such as exams and duties and so on. If you, or anyone else needs lore questions sorted out, then do get a hold of one of the Hand, or myself, and we will cut out the research time for you. Good luck with your studies, and thank you for your dedication! |

Hiya everyone! Hey, good to see you Raqel! :D Just wanna say sorry I haven't been online much lately. I'm just getting over the flu and it's epically busy at work so my presence here may be very scarce. *Hugs Maiq* I'm really enjoying role-playing - please don't think I've abandoned Dawnstar! ;) I'll reply to your post soon but I have to run off to a meeting now. No rest for the wicked! |

I am thrilled to bits with him! You have created a unique character with a rounded out back story, and you are keeping the momentum going, which I appreciate. Well done. I know how very busy you are. Thank you for keeping us informed and accepting our Lore policing so gracefully. I welcomed you to the site, but you are an asset. Rellis will be an interesting one to watch! |
