Your Main character's final fate.

Hotdog_23 · February 2020

As a Dragonknight I will finally succumb to the fire inside and burn away and return to the ash and stone from winced I came only to be reborn again by the flame.

I mean I don't think we can draw an end until the last expansion is confirmed as the last.

Like the title says. If you were to write a grand story about ESO, then what would be the final fate of your main character? Would he retire somewhere nice and safe? Maybe leave to Oblivion? Or go, and start working in politics?

Let's pretend, that Tiber Septim is about to show up around 300 years after the Planemeld stopped. So even as an elf you cannot live to that day naturally.

As an elf my main character would kill the world boss and prevent the biggest threat after the Molag Bal himself - Tiber Septim. Some of my other characters in ESO are their young versions of my Skyrim or text RPG characters of the 4th era.

You are wrong about longevity of elves. Elves live long, especially high elves. Even dark elves can live as long as Divayth Fyr. We know about a simple paladin, not a mage, who lives for several thousands of years (the snow elf Gelebor).

Very few live that long unless they have very great magical knowledge. You may haven't noticed, but they do not have the usual fantasy disease immunity. Which means, that disease, and violence can both end them.

But to kill Tiber Septim before he can conquer Tamriel. Now that would seriously change the lore of Elder Scrolls. And not a predictible way. At least by the time of Skyrim. Though Alduin's return still happen. The "great war", and the Stormcloak rebellion would unlikely to be the same.

This is purely theoretical. You could say simply, that after done with lots of heroic deeds... As an MMO ESO will has a long lifespan among the games, and even when they decide, that okay guys this is the last one they won't just delete the characters, that finish the story.

Maybe when ZOS decide to shut down the servers, then we can truly call it the end of it.

My Main is a Dragon Queen, Nord Sorceress, who has mastered all Crafts to the highest degree. She is neither fearful of Ice and Cold - nor of Lightning and Fire. She even outwitted Hermaeus Mora, to gain knowledge denied to many others.

She has learnt the secrets of eternal youth and life itself through the mastery of the Crafts. Nothing and no one can keep her down.

Just like a Phoenix, she rises again from the ashes of Fire, the blade of a Swordsman or fatal, elemental attacks.

My vampire sorc started practicing necromancy and ended up forming a cult of vampires only to be killed by some rival vampire lord during the oblivion era.

My Bosmer Nightblade has retired to the Linchal Manor where he tunes up his Precursor clones, crafts gear for other adventurers, and talks to the Augur about the ways of the universe. He generally only comes out of retirement when there is a large crisis. Most recently he came out of retirement to help with the Dragons in Elsweyr and there are rumors that he might be needed in Skyrim soon, but until then he just dusts off the various trophies and sits by the fire enjoying a glass of hot spiced rotmeth.

Ah! My main is also a Nightblade. A Dunmer that was a vampire, then a werewolf and back to vampire but now a mortal. She was a PvPer, Raider and Guild leader to boot. But alas, her adventures came to an end, When morrowind lanched. It's been 2 years or more from her retirement that she back to tamerial doing some stuff.
Currently, She spents most of her time in her retirement but occasionally, when an event or an expansion drops, she participates, then goes back to retirement mode. Luckily, she is a crafter. So, she as her uses.....

Luka Creyden, my Necromancer:

Due to her body being technically Daedric (Azure Plasm) and also eventually becoming a Lich, Luka is sort of stuck with immortality. Its not a problem to her though; she can continue her research and studies from her home in Coldharbor, whilst watching over the Mundus.
Over time, Luka notices that whenever things on Nirn start to get a bit iffy, some random hero or another turns up to sort the problem out. Safe in the knowledge that Tamriel is seemingly fated to be in good hands, Luka withdraws further into her arcane studies.

As time passes, Luka begins to take on Appprentices, who study and live with her in that pocket realm within Coldharbor. It starts as just one Apprentice, then two, then three... A few years pass and that small pocket realm has become a town all of its own.

Several more years pass, the very few who knew Luka and her followers barely speak of her any more as her deeds fade from memory. However, young mages whisper rumors to one-another, of a mysterious city filled with ageless mages, drifting freely through the unknown infinity of Oblivion.

So yeah, something like that!

If she were incapable of dying she would not beable to become a Lich in the first place.

We don't really know how many. There is not a small number of mages who lived really long (high elven mages like Galerion or dark elven mages as Telvanni wizards). We also have a number of non-mages like Gelebor, Laloriaran Dynar (if it is possible to say "non-mage" about ayleid) and even Brand-Shei, who is a simple merchant, who is not old and yet he is almost 200 years old. We also know that Neloth considers Senise Thindo too young to wear a particular robe since she is only 200 years old.
High elves don't have immunity, but they have 75% resist to common diseases so it is less likely for them to become ill.

As for the changes, that is the most interesting. ESO in this case opened a can of worms by implementing a quest with time travel to the past that actually changes present. You don't even need a dragon break.

Koriths end is quite close to where his story begins. He was just a farmers son before joining the mercenary company and drawing blood in Ransers War. So its fitting that his story comes to a close there as well.

The company just signed on to fight for the Covenant after being under contract with the Pact for the last few years. After the men disembark from the ships in Northpoint they begin the long trek to the Craglorn/Cyrodiil border. It's here in the rocky tors of Rivenspire that the company is set upon by a large force of Reachmen and in the ensuing battle Korith falls while attempting to rally the men for a counter attack.

I can help extend your characters life. Just send those Master Writs my direction. That is a sacrifice I am willing to make!

My NB Dunmer Vampiress ultimate fate is to eventually retire from adventuring and try to set up a family in one or two of their homes. Meanwhile for employment opportunities they'll just take gigs for the Dark Brotherhood and Thieves Guild as they're everywhere. When trouble comes for a region, instead of taking up the mantle she'll instead get her family out of the region first and protect them at all cost.

Eventually though she'll outlive her lovers and forever have to remain in the shadows of life as after watching so many lovers die with old age, she will eventually swear off love as watching her lovers die is simply too much for her to bear. She'll continue to watch over her children as they grow old and have kids of there own (as she wont ever make them into a vampire) yet there will come a point in her life where after one of her grandchildren is killed due to a mistake, she'll eventually come to realize that its safer for her family to no longer be associated with her anymore as she's still both an outlaw and a vampire.

From then on she'll continue her life in the thieves guild and dark brotherhood as both her name and legacy is eventually forgotten to the sands of time while she becomes one who gets in grossed into the shadows of life and after she swears off talking she'll become nothing more then a nameless member of the thieves guild and dark brotherhood who's profits goes not to the guild but orphanages across Tamriel as deep down in her heart, she wishes to return to those days of raising children of her own again.

That's my headcanon ending for my character. It's not a happy one but Limiri Aruvieruce was and always will be an Assassin and a Thief and that's how she'll live her immortal years after her adventuring days are over. It's a sad yet happy ending for a character that's been through alot.
