so aesa is my dragonborn character, she’s a nord from cyrodiil who got in a lot of trouble with the thalmor enforcers back home - she was born after the war but raised as like a low-key talos worshipper before the thalmor cracked down and arrested her bc she doesn’t know how to shut up

her narrative intersects with everyone’s but im not sure how for all of them exactly. mostly she is with mercius tho because she saved his life in helgen! 

she spends a lot of time traveling around skyrim for different reasons - she intends to join the stormcloaks when she first comes but by the time she actually gets up to windhelm she isn’t sure about it anymore. she ends up trying to stay out of the war as much as she can but ultimately she comes down on the side of the empire

there’s definitely parts where she is deliberately avoiding the responsibility of being dragonborn but she also gets distracted a lot when she’s TRYING to carry out those duties. she tries to learn as much as she can about skyrim and get the support of the people and in the process becomes thane of every hold because she’s just helping out
