[Authors Note]

This branch will be an inversion of the usual dungeon-building. Nisrixes truly is simply a confused NPC who does not realize he has gained sentience, so bear with him while he stumbles through his world no longer 'resetting' each night. While there may be adventurous action at a later date, Nix will be more focused on the harsh economic reality of actually running a Mercantile Concession (his dungeon he will claim), having to deal with Heroes/NPCS, and (of course) draining his fat, scaled nuts into as many snatches and holes he can. Besides, Nix is a pampered princeling whose only fights were when he was a rambunctious teenager or if you count slipping poison into one of his elder cousins tea. I am very excited to write about the rippling cascade of events where one of your MMORPG's cities starts slowly collapsing in on itself because one corner of it's economic foundation suddenly has supply and logistical issues. I am eager to revel in the chaos as players flood the forums, NPC schedules start glitching out, and the carefully curated in-game stock market starts to crash!<3

While this story is not true to his actual Elder Scrolls character, Nix is someone who I dreamed up many years ago for my Akaviri Potentate/Empire fanfiction. I am happy to share more things about him or the fanfic if you are so inclined!

Tsaesci Purebloods get bigger and fatter when they age due to their use of Tsaescence. Nix's great-grandmother is many, many centuries old, pushing the boundaries of her mortal coil. Her lower half is probably 70-100 feet long and looks like she swallowed a conga line of wine barrels. At her venerable age, it is easier to calculate when she is awake as opposed to when she is in hibernation, haha.

Younger Tsaesci

Middle-Aged Tsaesci

Older Tsaesci

The Tsaesci of old were highly matriarchal, but as of modern times they only have vestiges of said tradition. Nix's grandfather is the first Crown Prince in Akaviri history, so there is a lot of weight riding on his scaley shoulders.
