Assuming that the other masters cutting out was intentional (and not just a bug), I thought that it was a nice touch to show how Colette doesn't get any respect for her restoration magic (or that they don't like her paranoia).


I believe it's intentional that the rest walks out on poor Colette. I've seen it happen in my game too.:lol:

Dear Diary today I went into the forest to find some flowers from my wife, and killed an entire pack of wolves with my own hands.

And now that Falen is done with Dragonborn...

Ashirani is back.

Nice!  This looks like Riverwood ("The Riverwood Trader is everything you'd want in a general store" :) but I don't recognize that armor and it appears a bit fancy for the early game.

^ I can't remember if it was Riverwood or Falkreath, but you're probably right. I visited both last night.

The armor is Cultist Armor, and is new with Dragonborn. We'd just gotten accosted by them outside the city gates, and once dead, I decided to try them on. Heh. It's nice that they're more "pants"-like than mage robes, but I'm not absolutely sure I'm in love with them.

Edit: It's the same armor as this, just without the mask.

 Here is my Altmer again, this time as a vampire and with all the facial features that Dawnguard added.

The elves are supposed to resemble animals? I didn't notice that. I liked that the Dunmer aren't supposed to be pretty; they are my favorite pick to roll with as a protagonist. Speaking of the Atlmer, I wonder what happened to Queen Morgiah of Firsthold, since I know the Atlmer dislike outsiders, and the Thalmor came into power after the Oblivion Crisis. I also don't think it was ever explained what "first" she owed to the King of Worms (given their arrangement in Daggerfall). 


I know the Altmer and Dunmer are meant to have a "bird" look.  To me the Bosmer look like squirrels.  lol  Maybe deer. 


I'm never going to look at Bosmer the same way again. [smilie]http://social.bioware.com/images/forum/emoticons/tongue.png[/smilie]

I think cash is a silly racial bonus; especially in a game that's weighted towards making you rich.

Or...it is the way I play it. Even if you spend just a tiny bit of time on smithing and enchantment, and sell your creations, you will be floating in cash in no time. Or loot every burial urn like I do - sometimes I wonder why I get all OCD on opening those stupid things, especially when they typically only hold a crappy ring and a few septims. But you never know what might be in there! 


Yeah, I know what you mean. I got the "Golden Touch" achievement of having $100,000 before my character even joined the Thieves Guild, so I don't think money is really an issue if you explore Skyrim and sell the loot from your fallen foes. It helps that weapons and armor don't degrade.

I agree with that.  Nords and Imperals its very easy to make attrictive characters.  Probably the reason why my two plays so far are Nord and Imperial [smilie]http://social.bioware.com/images/forum/emoticons/tongue.png[/smilie]  [smilie]http://social.bioware.com/images/forum/emoticons/joyful.png[/smilie]


I want to replay a dunmer, but I just really dislike the new elf style [smilie]http://social.bioware.com/images/forum/emoticons/unsure.png[/smilie] 


I don't think it's all that new; I seems the Dunmer appearance (and voice) is reminiscent of the Morrowind style. I like it; both of my protagonists are Dunmer, and I think the facial options and details have improved a great deal since the early days.

You know, seeing how the south area of soustheim is covered in ashes, makes you wonder how life is possible on morrowind, and how these ashes didn't hit Skyrim in areas such as windhelm.


I think the Dunmer adapted. Athis, a Dunmer member of the Companions, makes a comment about staying away from Windhelm because it's so close to Morrowind. He also comments to my Dunmer that we "are all Ashlanders now" (given the events of the Red Year).

Yep, now that I'm thinking about it, you both are right. Alvor helped us with the Cultists. It's all coming back now. Image IPB

Two questions I am hoping someone can help me with--since Google seems to hate me atm.

1. Is there any other way to trigger the Bonemold Quest from Glover Mallory other than joining the Thieves Guild? I was hoping to avoid the guild this go round, but I would love to see that letter to Sapphire.

2. Is Glover Mallory a NPC you can marry?

Exactly, Drevis also gives a speech about  Investigating some magical anomalies.  The masters stay till the end.

All cloth right?  I just uninstalled most of my robe mods.  My character was looking too extravagant.  This looks just right.

LOL, well it's true isn't it?  Those beady eyes... I like Bosmer, they can be nice and happy-go-lucky types, but damn they are creepy.

I like Athis.  I was disappointed that he level caps at around 25 or something, so he doesn't make a very useful follower.

The Dunmers' recent history is melancholy but just proves why they are so awesome.

@blaidefiste - It's considered light armor, and is made of leather (except for the mask, which is heavy armor). So I guess technically it isn't considered robes... although I've always been confused by that. Even when I'm just wearing mage robes and get hit, it counts towards light armor, so...? Weird.

@KBomb - I'm not sure about the Bonemold thing. My first Dragonborn run was with a Guildmaster. I'd guess you probably have to be in the TG. Kinda like those hunters in the mountains that only play if you're a werewolf. But I'm totally speaking out of my arse here. Maybe someone else knows.

I highly doubt you could marry Glover. I pondered that briefly myself, but since he's got a connection to the TG, probably not.

Talking about Bosmer, I saw an very interesting article about them in the lore page. It seems they can perform an special ritual called the wild hunt, that turns them into monstruous creatures that are hostile and nearly invencible. It was used in the first era to kill the king of skyrim. But thinking about it, wouldn't this make the bosmer an very dangerous race? It's kind of strange how they can normally live in society without repercussion. I mean, people would surely be afraid to live together with an species that can turn into terrible monsters right?

Maybe they paid off the city guards, ala Thieves Guild? I mean...we can get away with paid guard/townspeople lobotomies, maybe they did the same thing. Image IPB

So has that power evolved over time into the Command Animal ability they have now? I really should read up on their lore. Bosmer are cool.

Well, here I am trying to eek back into Skyrim and explore around the modded castle I recently added on...and man, the fauna and $#!+heads of Skyrim just poor out of the woodwork to disrupt what would otherwise be a peaceful stroll. Come to think of it, I still have the Many More NPCs on, so I guess most of it's my fault. But, my new modded electromancer companion pretty much is electrocuting everything within an inch of it's life and I get to just finish most of them off. Sweet.

You can read about a Wild Hunt in the lore book A Dance In Fire.  Every race in Tamriel has their über war ability, and this is the Bosmers', but they can't use it often because it basically involves them transforming into bugs and other hideous creatures.  In A Dance in Fire, when the Hunt gets trapped, they're so frenzied that they turn on and devour each other.  So yeah.  It's not something you'd do at the drop of a hat.

^^ They are evil, but does not mean that the Player has to be. Choose questlines that are more in keeping with your vision, and when asked to take a mission outside of those guidelines; decline. So what if they give you a litlle jazz; what can they really do to you?


I wouldn't call the Thieves' Guild evil, really. They're honorable, albeit self-serving.

The only thing I disliked and is probably the reason I never do their questline anymore is the fact you have to sell your soul to a daedra.

My Dragonborn made so many deals with the Daedra in Skyrim that its pretty much guaranteed that they'll all fight over his soul once he dies.

In other words, he didn't care who he sold his soul to or who he made a deal with. He knows they'll be busy fighting each other over him so he's good.
