Be honest: Eveli Sharp-Arrow or Queen Ayrenn. 77 votes
When you want Eveli but ESO+ has run out and you have to take Ayrenn

There are numerous characters who we are clearly invited to view in a romantic or sexual light, starting with Jakarn and Darien, but including plenty of women as well.
And there are a lot more who are clearly meant to be attractive. Indeed that's probably true of a large fraction of the important female NPCs in the game.
I.e., it's the same sexism as in movies -- attractiveness is important for the men, but even more important (by a large margin) for the women.
E.g., which women in Game of Thrones aren't meant to be hot, at least the fairly young (but adult) ones? Brienne and who else? Maybe that septa Cersei hated -- who ironically was last seen/heard being ***.
While there's plenty of romanticism there are no kids, proof that most NPCs, especially male ones are masters of coital animation canceling

Surprised no one is thinking long term, or there are only gentlemen here. Surely if one would have been able to become the consort of the Queen for the night this might peak the interest of other ladies at the court, no? Unless the Queens verdict would not be favourable afterwards ... one might end up in the dungeon.
Thinking more about this ... it could be dangerous either way with a Queen...
Real stupidity beats artificial intelligence every time. ~ Terry Pratchett
Queen Ayrenn's a bit too posh and unavailable for me. Someone like Eveli is fun and interesting. Maybe it's the fact that I'm a woman, but I prefer my ladies to be someone I can have a relationship with, rather than someone I must admire from afar while they run an empire. XD
Living vicariously through my characters.
My Girls:
"If you were trapped in your house for, say, a year, how would you pass the time?"
Nephikah the Houseless, dunmer assassin: "I suppose I could use the break. I have a lot of business holdings now that need management." Swum-Many-Waters, elderly argonian healer: "I think that I would enjoy writing a memoir." Silh'ki, khajiit warrior-chef: "Would this one be able to go outside, to the nearby river? It's hard to fish without water!" Peregrine Huntress, bosmer hunter: "Who is forcing me to stay inside, and where can I find them?" Lorenyawe, altmer mechanist: "And why would I want to go outside in the first place? Too much to be done in the workshop." Lorelai Magpie, breton master thief: "I'd go nuts. Lucky for me, I have a little experience sneaking out!" Rasheda the Burning Heart, redguard knight: "I would continue my training to keep my skills sharp." Hex-Eye Azabi, khajiit daedric priestess: "I suppose it would be lucky, then, that I built a shrine to Mephala in my backyard." Yngva Stormhammer, nord bandit (reformed...ish): "I hate being inside even when I'm not forced to be. GET. ME. OUT." Madam Argentia, vampire dunmer aristocrat: "I suppose it would be more of the same. I have a rather... contentious relationship with the sun." Mazie gra-Bolga, orc scout: "Uh... I'd have to house train my bear..." Felicia the Wanderer, imperial witch-for-hire: "What Lorelai said." Calico Jaka-dra, retired khajiit pirate: "This one would like a rest from her grand adventures. Her jewel shop runs out of stock!" Shimmerbeam, blind altmer psijic: "Provided that I am confined to Artaeum, I do not think I will want for things to occupy my time." Shauna Blackfire, redguard necromancer: "Sounds like paradise. I hate people." Kirniel the Undying, cursed bosmer warrior: "I would feel useless, not being able to fight." Echoes-from-Dragons, argonian who thinks she's a dragon: "All the better to count my hoard!"
