Hemming Black-Briar

"My Mother spares no expense where I'm concerned. I'm heir to the family fortune after all."

- Hemming Black-Briar

 is a Nord and the eldest son and heir of Maven Black-Briar and father to Sibbi and Ingun. He lives in Riften, in Black-Briar Manor.

Personality and traits
Hemming wears Fine Clothes and a Fine Hat, like many of the Black-Briar family. It is widely acknowledged that Hemming doesn't have the same power as Maven, and seems to live under her thumb. For instance, she becomes the Jarl of Riften after Laila Law-Giver leaves, and he is her steward.

Interactions
Hemming becomes steward of Riften if the Imperial Questline is carried out, and will then sell the Dragonborn Honeyside and the upgrades for it.

Quotes

 * "My children, Sibbi and Ingun, are being groomed to run the family business one day as well."
 * "Sibbi will prove to be a fine leader one day, but Ingun... that girl has her mind somewhere other than business."

Trivia

 * One of his lines refers to Sibbi and Ingun as his children instead of his siblings. *He is sometimes found sleeping next to Maven in her bed; he may have originally been written as her husband.
 * Hemming has apparently been seduced by Haelga before, as when the Dragonborn first visits Riften, they can witness Maven warning Haelga about "practicing her Dibellan arts" on Hemming. *This may be connected to the above theory that Hemming was once Maven's husband, or simply that Maven does not want her son's reputation ruined by being seen with Haelga.
