Despite not having a lot of social skills--or may be because of this--Elspeth is actually quite easily to get along with. She doesn't make close friends easily, but she's very good at having acquaintances. She rarely initiates outings but can usually be convinced to do something. Basically, if you give her some food and aren't a complete jerk, she will very likely enjoy your company. She prefers people who rebel, question the status quo, subvert the dominant paradigm, etc. But she doesn't begrudge individuals who just want to live their lives quietly.
The easiest way to make Elspeth an enemy is to be a bully or defend/support the Thalmor. Saying something shitty about Evangeline Sigeweald will also garner you enemy status although she might just grit her teeth and despise you quietly so as not to raise suspicion. Explicit prejudice against mages, mer, or the animal races won't get you very far with her.
Elspeth doesn't have any frenemies, I don't think. At some point, she's probably going to have to forge strategic relationships with people she doesn't like very much. That will be fun for her, I am certain.

Tagged?
I still don't understand tagging things, but I've got a couple of these questionares in my messages. And I love answering questions so here goes.
1. Who inspired you the most in your life or maybe in arts?
I really don't know how to answer this question because "the most" is just impossible me to comprehend. Also, I don't really do arts. But I feel compelled to say that anyone who has ever left a comment or sent an email or found some way of informing me that they enjoy my writing is 90% responsible for the fact that my writing exists in its current state. I write things because I have to. I post/share/bother making it decent because
28DCD Day Twenty Eight: Relationships (Creator)
How do you feel about your character? What do you like? Dislike? Imagine how your character feels about you.
When I was writing this story with no intention of sharing it, Elspeth wasn't particularly interesting. It was just fun picking up from my Oblivion story and putting Elspeth into all these situations and letting her be all heroic and sassy. As I have mentioned before, it was an immensely satisfying way to write but there was no development. When I decided to sit down and develop her for internet consumption, I thought about how I wanted to make her more compelling.
Rather than a typical individual who gets suddenly thrown into
28DCD Day Twenty Seven: Party
This prompt has been immensely difficult for me because I keep confusing the dinner guests I would invite with those Elspeth would invite.
The thought of having an actual party stresses Elspeth out because she would not invite Olfrid, but she would invite Fralia and that probably wouldn't go over well. I think, for that reason, Elspeth would like to stick to hypothetical parties involving historical figures and various Aedra and Daedra.
I think Elspeth would prefer a smaller, more intimate gathering and would choose the hero of the Oblivion crisis, Maeve Sigeweald seeing as that is her ancestor and also Martin Septim because why not? She
28DCD Day Twenty Six: Ch...ch...changes
(If your character would change one thing about his/herself, what would it be?)
Elspeth is a Mary Sue didn't you know? Why would she want to stray from perfection?
I think right now Elspeth would like to change some of her factual book knowledge for wisdom. She has no idea what to make of everything she's learned since arriving in Skyrim between what Savos Aren told her about the Psijic Order, the Thalmor, and Arcane University, and now being Dragonborn and meeting one of the last Blades. She's overwhelmed and she can only focus on the individual tasks for so long.
