I'm not writing like this to scare you off. If you can't zoom in, please return on another device. If it bothers everyone so much, then I will change the size. Now that that's aside, let's turn our attention to the roleplay.
Stories of a dragon across Skyrim have begun to circulate, raising the undead in its wake. Helgen lies smoldering in ruin. Our story begins in Riften, a small eastern city under Stormcloak control. Riften used to be a proud city, popular and bustling with foreigners and trade, but history has left its mark. Now, poverty and crime rule the streets. Merchants fear the Thieves Guild that make the Rayway underground their home. The Jarl remains ignorant and Maven Black-Briar, protected by the Dark Brotherhood and Thieves Guild, pulls the strings.
Riften is currently on edge. A wealthy couple were murdered in their home and the noblewoman's amulet was stolen. The blame is set on a male Nord that came here with his mother more than a dozen years ago. Guards found their house abandoned. The city reeks with fear of the killer striking again. AESGIR, the Thief in question, is holed up in the Cistern. Since the murder, the Thieves Guild has begun to tremble at the roots as the merchants they once bullied refuse to deal.
Despite the tension, Riften remains open to business. The Bee and Barb welcomes patrons and travelers. The marketplace is safer than ever. Thieves are caught every day in desperate acts. This is where stories meet to create history. Lock your doors and stay inside come nightfall. Welcome to Riften.
GUIDELINES
• Keep irreverent conversation out of the OOC. That's what the group PM is for.
• There will be blood, violence, gore, and mature scenes. It's an 18+ roleplay, what would you expect?
• Link to your CC in your signature or in your first post. Since this is an advanced roleplay, I expect you to make #1 proud. If I think we'll have a problem with your character or a plot, we'll talk about it in the group PM. Beware, for I will criticize shamelessly and without mercy.
