    Born in a mushroom

    Shaped by magic

    My existence deemed rather tragic

    My looks were my doom

    But someone found room

    In their heart to view me as simply fantastic.

    What am I?

     

    OK, I know my reign of terror just ended, but I'm gonna go ahead and guess that one Argonian slave who became a Telvanni in ESO.

    Not quite, my lady. Please continue to wear that fetching dress ;)

    I'm sorry, Blade Dancer, that is not the answer I'm looking for.

    The Valenwood needs a new Wilder Monarch, care to mantle that role?

    I want to say it has to be with the Telvanni, but the last parts get me. *Thinking begins to become intense*

    Intensity is good. It speaks of passion!

    The Telvanni seems way to obvious for this, but then again given our track record for not guessing obvious stuff that might be the direction we should head in... I'm gonna go in a similar direction and say Crassius Curio. Big in Dunmer aristocracy where they chill in mushrooms, 'magic' and 'simply fantastic' seem like the self absorbed tyoe of language he'd use, yeah thats all I got. But I feel like Phil might be a bit of a kindred spirit to the famed author, so it'd make sense :P

    Haha, Crassius Curio is my hero. Wait, are you saying I'm self-absorbed? Edit: Not the answer I'm afraid.

    Fancy some Raz in your life? Never can get too much Raz:

    Born in a mushroom

    My existence deemed rather tragic

    My looks were my doom

    But someone found room

    In their heart to view me as simply fantastic.

    What am I?

    Let's have another clue:

     

    Now I wander

    But I make a really great pet

    My tongue is long and wet

    I have a tale

    Am covered in fur and scales

    I also come in white and jet.

    It is! I am sad that my scheme of turning everyone onsite into either Razum-dar or Ayrenn hs been thwarted :D The Dominion ends here. For now.

    Ah, now it is time for revenge! Not that I didn't enjoy my stint as an Altmeri queen, but... Time for some delicious irony, my good Paul!

    Now for my riddle!

     

    I am maker of ancient, unbreakable Laws,

    master of prosiac, and often cruel Jaws.

    I am the son of a mighty, powerful Dragon,

    So I hopped on the great God bandwagon.

    I'm gonna go with Alduin, although thats probably way to obvious. The World Eater returning is an ancient and unbreakable law (well, before TLD came), he has some hella strong jaws, he's the first son of Akatosh I think. The last line makes me think of Talos, but I'll be damned if I'm voting for him again and getting it wrong so I'll just choose to ignore it :P

    Awwwooo

    Just a quick howl to say I've been following this but if anyone thinks for one second I'm risking a vampire profile trying to answer any of these then you can forget it. keep it going, it's quite enjoyable to read.

    Nope! Seeing as how you don't know what a Vvardvark is, why not be one for a while?
