Even the Roaches are Dead

“It’s like the Gods were really pissed at everything on the planet…. and this time, even the roaches are dead…”

A post apocalyptic character I came up with off the top of my head and with which I fell in love.

Expect more of her to appear here in the future.

Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun

The death of the material/physical/profane, a step on the path to enlightenment.

“Witness the man who raves at the wall
Making the shape of his question to Heaven
Whether the sun will fall in the evening.

Will he remember the lesson of giving?

Set the controls for the heart of the sun…
the heart of the sun
the heart of the sun
the heart of the sun”
-Pink Floyd, “Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun”

Niddhoga, Dovahkiin | Argonian

Obligatory Elder Scrolls Skyrim Argonian character piece. How can one resist? ;}

Bio
Niddhoga is a vexing specimen at first glance. Stoic, observant, and often appearing very cold on the outside, like the lands around her. She buries her emotions the same way that the mountains are concealed by the heavy snows. Being a long-distance archer and thieving assassin, it is a by-product of her lifestyle.
Born to an immigrant Argonian working on the docks in Windhelm, she seemed destined for her role since birth, being a shadowscale and all, it was only natural that she’d end up assassinating Emperor Titus Mede II 27 years later and consequently fighting for the Stormcloaks to liberate Skyrim from the Empire.
She sees through the facade of propaganda labeling the Stormcloaks as respecting only Nords and strives to prove herself as being both a proud individual that loves her birth-land as well as a quiet protector of its dignity; she will always be lurking in the shadows, stalking those holding power whose actions may seek to take the very breath from the legendary throat of the world.

She’s Sporting:
-Some slightly modified Nightingale Armor
-Ancient Dark Brotherhood Gauntlets, Boots, Hood
-An (Exquisite) Fire-Enchanted Daedric Bow
-Ebony Arrows
-Blade of Woe

Birth and death’s cycle.

Sometimes the beginning is not so different from the end.
