Skylar is Skyrim's saviour. She's defeated Alduin and now she's looking for something else to do to pass her time. That's when she came across Jorrvaskr, the home of the Companions. The type of work she does there lives up to her expectations enormously, but then she learns about a family secret...one that could threaten her position in Jorrvaskr and compromise the friendships she's made.

The only characters I own in this story are Skylar and Marco. Everything else belongs to Bethesda, including some dialogue and some plot.

"I Would Stand At Her Back, That The World Might Never Overtake Us..."
Farkas x Dragonborn fan fiction From Farkas's point of view, based on another play-through of mine. Companions quest line and part of main story quest line, mostly cannon compliant but not entirely. 'A wolf mates for life' and the other relationship troubles the beast blood causes. Farkas is not as dumb as everyone thinks. Slow-burn and "damn it, kiss her already!" Also, Vilkas x Lydia And it's a fan fiction, so the only thing I own is my specific version of the Dragonborn, everything else belongs to Bethesda. Some dialogue comes directly from gameplay as well.Complete
Realmwalker
The Dragonborn would never succeed without that gamer behind the controller... A "modern girl in Skyrim" fanfiction. Bored of her quiet life in a small town, Adelaide wishes for a real adventure... Meanwhile in Skyrim, Catia has no idea what to do with her life, but she feels called to something more than being a merchant in Cyrodiil... This is fanfiction, which means some characters, settings, and plot elements are not mine. The cover came from a free download at getwallpapers.com that I found by googling "Skyrim scenery." Marked "mature" for occasional graphic descriptions of canon typical violence, mild vulgarity, suggestive situations, and references to sex and other intimate activities, but I do not write explicit content. Also, heads up, the main character is not the Dragonborn.Complete
The Song of Deirdre Part I
Deirdre Morningsong returns to Skyrim seeking vengeance on the Nords who murdered her parents, only to be captured by Imperial soldiers who mistake her for a Stormcloak rebel. After escaping both the Imperial dungeons and the destructive return of the dragon Alduin, she resolves to discover what strange power is within her, and what the dragons have to do with it. Follows the main quest lines of the game, weaving them into a story of adventure and romance, with numerous twists on the canon. I'm hoping it's equally enjoyable for those who've played the game and those who haven't. Trigger warnings: rape is mentioned, one is attempted and prevented, but none are completed. Some other sexual assault. The first chapters are PG-13, but later ones become R-rated. (Feedback on appropriate ratings appreciated.) Skyrim is part of the Elder Scrolls series of games, copyright by Bethesda Softworks. The image for the book cover is from the game. I've only posted Part I here, but will soon post the rest (four parts total, 62 chapters). I've worked in nonfiction up to now because it's easier for me to describe places and events I can experience first-hand. I'm hoping that writing this fanfic will be a bridge to doing more of my own fiction.Complete
The Thief of Hearts (A Brynjolf Fanfic)
Two years after the Dragonborn's victory, a darkness has settled over Riften. The Thieves Guild has gone into hiding, while the Dark Brotherhood roams the streets with terror and brute force. It would seem a rival war is just begging to begin. But all of that changes when a young servant girl named Spina gets thrown into the mix. Suddenly she becomes the newest Thieves Apprentice and things in Riften will never be the same. I own none of the characters or pictures of Skyrim.Complete
Victory or Sovngarde
Book Three of the Honor and Glory Trilogy Six years after defeating Miraak and saving the entire world for the second time, Ylva Sky-Shatterer finds herself in the middle of a new kind of adventure: motherhood. Her twin children, a boy and a girl named Jergen and Embla, keep her on her toes. They've already proven their natural battle prowess and inclination towards the warrior's way, not to mention tempers that burn brighter than dragon fire and wanderlust spirits. Even with the help of her husband, Ylva wonders how she'll survive raising these two into adulthood. But her temperamental and wild children become the least of her worries when an old friend brings her important--and terrifying--news. The Aldmeri Dominion's presence in Skyrim has tightened, and the wretched Thalmor now walk through the lands with a new authority. They punish indiscriminately, and they have no mercy. Ylva will not stand for the injustice, and now has to face her biggest challenge yet. She has to unite the people of Skyrim under one common battlecry and drive those High Elves back to the lands from which they came. In order to win, Ylva must rely on those she thought she'd never trust, and forge bonds stronger than Skyforge steel. In the end, she knows that they will either win, or Sovngarde will welcome them all. NOTE: Bethesda owns all rights to the Skyrim characters in this fanfiction. I only own my original characters, dialogue, and plot line. Prequel: To Kill A DragonbornComplete
His Harbinger
Vilkas x Dragonborn fan fiction Originally titled "You Don't Have to Save The World Alone, Harbinger," but that was long and a little ridiculous. My most recent Skyrim play-through, personal character idea (female nord Dragonborn) and a few head-cannons that went with it. Dragonborn knows she's the Dragonborn and many other things about Skyrim. Companions quest-line, civil war quest-line, and main story quest-line (consider this a spoiler warning!) Mostly from Vilkas's point of view and the Dragonborn's point of view. And of course as this is a fan-fiction, the only character that is mine is my specific version of the Dragonborn, everyone else belongs to Bethesda. A portion of the dialogue comes directly from the game as well. Also, no smut, but there will be some strongly suggestive occasions so I marked it "mature". Other tag suggestions would be appreciated.Complete
Honor and Glory
Book One of the Honor and Glory Trilogy After training for over a year to fulfill her destiny as Dragonborn and defeat Alduin, Ylva knew she would need a challenge. Joining the Companions in Whiterun seemed like the only guild she could ever call home. But she still doesn't feel quite settled. None of the Companions know she's the Dragonborn, the savior of Skyrim. And she doesn't want them to know. What would they say if they knew? Would they respect her? Or would they hate her and tell her to leave? Would they scoff at the idea that a woman barely into her adulthood had been the one to save them? Maybe not all of them, but Vilkas, one of the most respected members within the Circle, and one of the most honor-bound men she has ever met, can't seem to fathom that thought. Because of this, Ylva doesn't know if she could ever tell her new family who she truly is. NOTE: I do not own Skyrim, the Companions, or any of the dialogue from this game. This is a fanfiction and a fanfiction only; I only own my original characters and dialogue. Sequel: To Kill A DragonbornComplete
Legacy of the Harbinger
Krinna's story is my first fanfic and is based on my first playthrough in VR. I'd played Skyrim so many times on other systems by then, I got the idea of 'what if the Dragonborn already knows what she's supposed to do?' A friend of mine edited and complied all of my stories of Krinna the Dragonborn into a cohesive story with a proper conclusion. So here it is. Krinna has been told in a prophesy that she is the Dragonborn who must save the world. Farkas thinks the Dragonborn is good company, but he only has eyes for a certain Housecarl. Vilkas finds the Dragonborn simply fascinating... Also, the cover is a screen shot from my actual game play.Complete
Honor of the Dragonborn
Third story to "His Harbinger," sequel to "Something to Protect." Everything makes much more sense if you at least read "His Harbinger" first. Vilkas x Dragonborn (established) Farkas x Lydia (also established and a bit background) Based on my play through of the Dragonborn DLC with my Dragonborn Krinna Dovh, a female Nord. Krinna has visions and premonitions so there are some things she just knows (continuing a headcannon established in the first two books). Mostly told from Vilkas's perspective, with occasional snippets from the Dragonborn's perspective. Also explores aspects of married life; Vilkas being hot-tempered, but sweet and loyal. Story is set after the Companions quest line, the civil war, and the main story line is complete (events of "His Harbinger") and after the Dawnguard DLC (events of "Something to Protect") Also not entirely cannon compliant. And of course this is a fanfiction, the only thing unique to me is my specific characterization of the Dragonborn, everything else belongs to Bethesda, including portions of the dialogue. And lastly, marked mature for some strongly suggestive occasions (I won't write the details, but they're married), and occasional vulgar language.Complete
Getting to Know the Harbinger
Vilkas x Dragonborn and Farkas x Aela Vilkas realizes he's attracted to their newest Circle member, and then suddenly she's their new Harbinger. To his delight, he quickly figures out the feeling is mutual... the only problem is, she's got some secrets... A relatively short fic that popped into my head while I was working on other things... based on one of my play-throughs where I married Vilkas and left Aela and Farkas alone to run Jorrvaskr. I marked it mature to a a be safe, but I think it's good for "teen and up audiences."Complete
Farkas x Dragonborn fan fiction From Farkas's point of view, based on another play-through of mine. Companions quest line and part of main story quest line, mostly cannon compliant but not entirely. 'A wolf mates for life' and the other relationship troubles the beast blood causes. Farkas is not as dumb as everyone thinks. Slow-burn and "damn it, kiss her already!" Also, Vilkas x Lydia And it's a fan fiction, so the only thing I own is my specific version of the Dragonborn, everything else belongs to Bethesda. Some dialogue comes directly from gameplay as well.
