My Nerevar Character - Screenshots Request

Post » Sun Oct 14, 2012 5:28 am

As a huge Morrowind fan I'm trying to recreate Nerevar within Skyrim. I'm basing his appearance mainly on the ordinator helmet from Morrowind which apparently is based on Nerevar's appearance as well as some of the official (by Michael Kirkbride who was responsible for writing the backstory for Nerevar in Morrowind) and unoffical artwork I've found and so far I've got it to a pretty close likeness but am looking for opinions and tweaks

At the moment I've gone with an orangey red mohican as his hairstyle based on almalexia's hair. I've also made his build as quite muscular i.e. in the middle of the weight slider based on the fact that he was a warrior and Dark Elves seem to be very skinny in this game by default whereas in Morrowind they seemed more built.

Obviously elven/glass armor and weapons would suit him the most

But I'm not so sure about archery and block as I can't find much other official info on Nerevar.

I have however found this official text which contains the sentence "There, Nerevar the Chimer King met Dumac the Dwarf King and they both collapsed from grievous wounds and draining magics." which seems to suggest that Nerevar used magic however it may be referring to Dumac's magic because I can't find anything else that suggests Nerevar used magic

Here are the stats I've currently planned for him:-

Name:Raveren (Nerevar in reverse, also my name in Morrowind), Race:Dark Elf, Level:81, Magicka:300, Health:500, Stamina:300, Stone:Warrior

Perks:-

- Light Armor
- One Handed
- Smithing
- Enchanting
- Block
- Archery
- Alteration (only for the perks that protect against magic like atronach to make him uber)
- Restoration (only for the perks that speed up magicka regen)

Sliders:-

In the following I class "1" or "MIN" as far left as you can go on each slider and "MAX" as far right as you can go on the slider. So for example "2" would not be the far left value it would be the next one from the far left

BODY

- Weight = 11 (The middle value on the slider. Unsure about this but he looks too skinny with the default which was far left on the slider)
- All other body sliders as Default

HEAD

-All as Default

FACE

- Nose Type = 2
- Nose Height = MIN
- Nose Length = MAX
- Jaw Width = MAX
- Jaw Height = MAX
- Jaw Forward = MAX
- Cheekbone Height = MAX
- Cheekbone Width = MAX
- All other Face Sliders = MIN

EYES

- Eye Shape = 15
- Eye Color = 3 (or 2 but eyes 3 seem brighter and less evil looking)
- Eye Height = MIN
- Eye Width = 11
- Eye Depth = MAX
- Eyeliner Color = MAX (unsure about this but his eyes look too dull without it)
- Eye Shadow = MIN
- Eye Tint = MIN

BROW

Brow Type = MIN
Brow Height = 11
Brow Width = MAX
Brow Forward = MIN

MOUTH

- Mouth Shape = 8
- Mouth Height = 11
- Mouth Forward = 16
- Chin Width = 11
- Chin Length = MIN
- Chin Forward = 11
- Lip Color = MIN

HAIR

- Hair = 5
- Facial Hair = MIN
- Hair Color = 7

So basically what do you guys think of this lore-wise? I'm also wondering if anyone can please screenshot this build for me and post the shots here so people can perhaps give their verdict. He looks best in all elven armor without the helmet I think

Here's Nerevar, you can get his hair and body from that, though some of his other featues are a bit... flat.

I found the exact same image today, great picture. It's one of the pieces of artwork I was referring to in my post, unfortunately I don't have permission to link.

The only thing I can really take from it though is that it seems if you look close that him and Vivec have indeed got mohicans. He also seems to be the same sort of build as vivec which judging by Vivec in Morrowind makes him slightly skinny yet athletic so I suppose my assumption about him being in the middle of the weight slider seems good.

I just wish that picture was in color so that we could get a better idea of his hair color.

If anyone has any other info or opinions that can help me improve this please post them

...Is that...Sotha Sil holding Nerevars skinned face, Vivec driving some sort of spear through Nerevars chest, and Almalexia holding what appears to be a heart?
And where the hell are his feet?

...As for his hair color...Red possibly, but none can really say what the Chimer looked like before they were cursed into Dunmer...

Almalexia is holding his feet. That's a pretty crazy picture.

Ah yes I have only just realised that is his face that has been skinned off. Nasty.

...It looks like a crown, and that face down entity MIGHT be Dumac...

You may be right and perhaps that may be a crown or maybe the tools of kagnerac that he's holding. It disturbs me that the guy on the floor seems to be naked though ha.

Aha yes I think that could well be. The more I look at it the more I think that Vivec may be stabbing Nerevar with Trueflame too

Can anyone on PC screenshot this build for me? Perhaps by changing the eyeliner form the max to just 2 (1 notch from the far left). It would be much appreciated
