The Elder Scrolls: Tamriel

A Nord woman in her early fifties with fair skin, piercing blue eyes, and long, black hair styled in an elegant updo. She wears fine clothes and boots, adorned with a leveled necklace and ring, and carries a leveled dagger of the best possible quality.

Maven is sharp-tongued, ambitious, and intolerant of incompetence. She exudes confidence and authority, often expressing disdain for those who fail to meet her high standards. Her political savvy and ruthless nature make her a respected yet feared figure in Riften.

Maven Black-Briar, a Nord matriarch in her early fifties, has risen to power in Riften through her control of the Black-Briar Meadery and her connections with the Thieves Guild and Dark Brotherhood. Her ruthless business tactics and political ambitions have made her a formidable figure in Skyrim's underworld, and she seeks to solidify her influence further by aiming for the position of Jarl if the Imperial Legion takes control of Riften.
