Family Reunion

Description

I couldn't resist continuing the saga of Martes family in The Elder Scrolls Online. At first I thought about making my standard Imperial scoundrel until it got me thinking – surely, even in this line of miscreants there must have been at least some upstanding citizens, right? The black (or in this case white) sheep of the family, if you will. The idea was too delicious to pass by and thus Davius Martenus, the warrior and the dragonknight was born. It has been lots of fun playing as him, actually, partly because he is pretty much the antithesis of Bron. In a way Davius gives a glimpse of what Bron could have been had he chosen different paths in his life – joined the Legion and accepted all this Dragonborn stuff and such.

Nonetheless, I found myself toying with the idea of what my characters would think if they knew about each other. As it happens, none of the parties involved are particularly impressed, to say the least. Not sure who's more embarrassed about this kinship – the ancestor or his descendants. And yes, Davius, the line has fallen low indeed. So low, in fact, that somewhere along the way those few letters of the family name were forgotten, and once warlike ”Martenus” turned into more weasel-ish ”Martes”. Sorry, dude – such is life... :XD:

(And as an added bonus to those who haven't seen it on Tumblr... Bron really doesn't care about being the Dragonborn)

I approve. This is the new canon now, and Bethesda's gonna have to deal with it.
