Beholden: An Elder Scrolls Story by PanzarHawk

Summary
Following the end of the Stormcloak Rebellion and the resolution of the Dragon Crisis, the province of Skyrim has settled into an uneasy peace. After a tense re-unification treaty with the Empire helmed by the Dragonborn, who disappeared soon after, the arduous process of rebuilding has begun across the territory. Old wounds to be healed, nerves to be soothed, tempers cooled. For most, some peace and quiet is all they desire. A few years without the chaos and blood. For them, now is the time to rest.
For others, however, it is the time to act. Time for dark powers to creep into the world once again with more subtle methods of conquest.
In Solitude a crippled, disgraced nobleman gleefully returns to court with a newfound silver tongue, a loyal hound, and a curious horned mask.
In Riften a beggar fights and thieves everyday to survive, sleeping in gutters and eating cast-off scraps, until she steals her first shadow.
And in Winterhold, a forbidden student at the College stalks through dark crypts and frozen tunnels in search of a book bound in darkness.
Alduin has been defeated, and the war is over. But dark powers remain in Skyrim, and their Beholden act in their name. Willingly or not.

Summary
“What do you think?” she asked.
“I think you’re an exceptional mage, but clearly any idiot could see that. I think the college would benefit from someone with a dose of humility and the good sense to come in from the rain.”
“And?”
“And do you think it’s one of those jobs where you’d have to live in Winterhold full time?”
“Absolutely not.”
“In that case I think you should take it, if you want. They’re definitely not going to find anyone better.”

Ruminations of a Thief and Assassin by FusRohDontMessWithMe
Fandoms: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Elder Scrolls

Summary
My flatmate and I decided we would both write Skyrim stories about our current Dragonborn characters and so this is basically the novelization of my Dragonborn's adventures in Skyrim as the unwilling heroine. She finds herself quickly entangled with the Dark Brotherhood and the Thieves Guild much to her initial reluctance, though she eventually finds a deeper connection to her work.
All characters and story belong to Bethesda and everyone who contributed to making the Elder Scrolls games. I own nothing except my Dovahkiin. I hope this is as enjoyable to read as it was for me to write! I'm thinking that Saturdays or Sundays will be the days I post -

Summary
Vash gro-Nul, Archmage of the College of Winterhold, has been appointed agent of Malacath in Skyrim, tasked with improving the lot of the orcs.

Riddled with doubt, the obstacles and responsibilities pile on him, until he's sure it's only a matter of time before he makes a crucial mistake and draws the ire of the God of Curses.

Summary
Tallulah Moonstep never expected to be leading some of Skyrim's most famous (or infamous) guilds. Nor did she expect to team up with a vampire. She didn't expect to be a werewolf, not to mention the fact that every Daedra can manage a claim to her soul (which will certainly make her afterlife... interesting). And she certainly didn't expect to be the mythical Dragonborn prophecized to save the world. Which, to be honest, is a bit of a scam, since she's saved the world three times, yet only one came with the deal of being Dragonborn.
She's beginning to wish she never hopped on that ship.
But Tallulah Moonstep is determined to catalog how she went from Khajiit stowaway to Dragonborn, all in her trusty diary. Be warned, however. There's lots of death. And cursing. And Tallulah has a habit of using three words where one will do.
CURRENT STATUS: I'm not dead I swear,,,,,, just really tired,,,,
(Author's note: Literally none of this is edited. I give it a quick once over before I publish. Comments and kudos are also very appreciated. This went from a goofy indulgent fic to one hell of a project.)

Summary
I come from an ancient line of Altmer elven nobility. My beautiful land is shrouded in magic, mystery and untold knowledge. My noble family holds powerful influence, and has raised me to become the finest and most eligible High Elf woman in the Summerset Isles. Do you envy me? You shouldn't. I am not what my heritage demands me to be. I am who I choose to be, who I am called to be - and it is far, far more than what they see. For I have been Called by the Wind. I am Azrielle.

Summary
Runa's just a nobody from Helgen. It's not as if her journal is going to be of the sort that future historians are interested in, but it could be fun to look back on later.
She's not counting on the College of Winterhold finding something buried beneath Saarthal, nor is she prepared for the aftermath of that discovery. Still, she's come this far and she's not about to give up now.

The Diary of Taelu Blue-Eye by FaeOfFerns

28 Feb 2021
Tags
Summary
It's Taelu's final year at the mage's College of Winterhold, but things turn chaotic when Ancano, a Thalmor advisor shows up. He's nosy, he's snooty, he's a purist and an elitist - not the kind of person usually welcomed by the college. Taelu could sense his intentions were not what he said they were, and after he takes an interest in her and her backstory, she finds herself drowning in lies, scandals and pacts she cannot back out of. Taelu soon realises that being a powerful destruction mage means nothing when entangled in sex, Thalmor affairs and dangerous ancient artefacts.

Summary
Skyrim is a large place, and the latter years of the Fourth Era an important time in History. The Dragonborn was not the only person of interest who roamed the Old Kingdom and his was not the only adventure to shake its polity or change its people.

Summary
"I swore to heal others, not kill them cause it's convenient!"
"They're already dead."
"That is NOT how dead things are supposed to act!"
The return of Alduin the World-Eater and the Dragonborn to defeat him has been prophesied thousands of years ago. Tales of the Dragonborn and his to-be battles are well known to the Nords, and why not? Talos was Dragonborn as well as a Nord, and the Thu'um is an ancient Nordic ability.
If the Dragonborn of prophecy is supposed to be a male Nord warrior, then why is a female Imperial healer, dragged into the chaos foretold by the Elder Scrolls?
