For why I've been creating an OC to pair up with Mercer Frey.

(Details available on request, but the whole point is you convinced me this terribe man needs an equally terrible partner who he can inexplicably become a WORSE person for)

Altmer, older than Mercer but younger than Delvin. (Which means Mercer can snark that he goes after women born in the same decade as him, unlike a certain pretty boy second in command)

An illusion expert, her MO in any conflict is silence, blind, fear. When the inevitable results, she can deadpan "People just fall for me all the time."

She's not a Thalmor *agent* but does dabble as an informant for the cash. Previously had been the only one watching the College in Winterhold, but obviously made things look too interesting so Ancano got sent there, which fucked up that gig. He also wasn't interested in being her sugar daddy, so she left Winterhold and headed south.

Eventually, obviously, ends up with Mercer. But only after he threated her life ("No one will hear you scream") and she decided to take that as proposition. ("Are you going to make me scream, Guildmaster?") First kiss at mutual knifepoint.

Nigel Farage is the leader of Reform UK, a far right party who are currently in the process of a serious bid to become the UK government. they are just straight up evil.

Count Binface is an intergalactic space warrior with a bin on his head. he likes to run as a novelty candidate in general and mayoral elections. a big thing he likes to do is run as a candidate against the incumbent prime minister:

Anyway, in brief:

Nigel Farage is currently in the midst of a big scandal about his finances

He has decided to deal with this by 1) making a show of nobly resigning from parliament and then 2) immediately running in the resulting by-election

He has stated that he is letting 'the people' judge his actions and implied that if he wins that will prove that he has been exonerated in the court of public opinion

His goal was presumably to get a big resounding win over the other parties, proving that The People still love him.

the other parties have thus far decided that this is a 'vanity election' and, well, there is one very easy way to ensure that he will not beat any of them, and that is simply not to play.

and as a result the only person who has so far confirmed they are running against him is Count Binface. no matter the outcome this makes Nigel Farage look like, u know, a fucking clown.
