This is the official discussion thread for the web article, "Meet the Characters - Clivia Tharn."

In our final Meet the Characters entry for the Imperial City, we learn about Empress Regent Clivia Tharn!

Somehow she looks older than I expected. I'm not sure why when I know very well she's already been through two husbands.

Edit:
Any chance of us getting the Tharn family tree?

As it stands, Euraxia Tharn is Abnur's half sister, but younger than Clivia. Javad Tharn is Euraxia's kid, but also allegedly Abnur's son and nephew? Septima Tharn is actually Abnur's daughter, but Abnur can't seem to recall how she's related to him in Heart's Grief. Though he had at least 16 daughters so I guess it's possible he could have forgotten.

Dang I'm confused.

Abnur is currently 164 years old the Tharn faminly is one of the biggest Noble families of Cyrodiil. It's messy.

Description for stolen item "Child's Ambiguous Doll"
"It isn't clear if this tiny burlap monstrosity represents a frost troll or Clivia Tharn."

Descriptions of Clivia Tharn:
"Imperious, beautiful, statuesque even, she had a dazzling smile"
"Then she stood, every lovely hair still in place, turned and marched out of the room."
'Prince Leovic didn't hesitate: he walked right up to us and said, “Your Majesty, I want the Chancellor's daughter." And though Abnur Tharn had many daughters, we knew which one he meant.'

Either Clivia hasn't aged well, or frost trolls are considered beautiful in Tamriel. Hmm...maybe this explains why your average NPC looked the way they did in Morrowind and Oblivion, with such standards of beauty.

(Hey, I don't judge--if you think frost trolls are gorgeous, well, you do you!)

I'm inclined to think she hasn't aged well--look at that scowl on her face. Though I did have a pet theory that Imperial fashion included a recent period where women drew circles on their foreheads, and someone tried to translate that into a doll. Or possibly the third 'eye' is the jewel on her crown.

I don't really like Clivia. To me, it sounds like she wants my death. That scowl on her face tells me "I'm going to kidnap you and kill your ***." It almost reminds me of my school's rival...
