@Yrkoon, you're back! Nice to see you.

Wow, 12 Orcs? That's awesome! I've thought about making more, but I can never come up with unique enough names that I like, and that I can remember. Do you play yours as vampires or werewolves?

@Elhanan, I love Bretons too. It's always a bit of a trick to not make them look like hags with the forehead wrinkles, but the magic resistance is nice.

Do you guys ever make female characters, or do you stick to males?

My female DB was my attempt at a non-armored mage, but was changed to Light Armor as I tired of the Alteration problems. And she was the only DB to use Circlets; seemed more fitting for the female form, IMO.

Nice to see more activity in this thread again. ;) My character list:

1 Nord
1 Orc
1 Bosmer
2 Altmer
2 Dunmer
2 Khajiit
1 Imperial
2 Bretons
0 Argonians

Most are female. I only have a male Altmer and a male Imperial, but the imperial dude is only level 1 or 2. The Altmer is not that much higher, haha. Oh, I remembered that my Bosmer is male as well, but that is another low-level character I have barely played.

Ummm, let's see, my list is fairly complicated and extensive...

3 Nords.

@happy, the only female character I've ever played is Fem Shep...well, and the various assortment of stupendously overpowered fem characters in ME3 MP...but I do have two teenage daughters who play Skryim and only play female characters, both of whom have a knack for making pretty Bosmer and Altmer...

....sooooooo, the character creator wasn't totally wasted in our household.

Ok, I don't feel so bad for having so many characters. ;-) I must say, I'm thankful for the face-changer in Riften, for sure! My first character was a Breton, and she was very much like someone you'd see hanging out with Hagravens. Not anymore.

BTW, we were talking about conjuring Dremora Lords a couple of pages back. I can confirm that Atromancy does double their duration. Yay! I just finally bought the spell yesterday. My Sneak is maxed, as is Lockpicking, but I'm only at 74 for Conjuration. *sigh* Working on it.

Nice to see you all back in here.

@Barbarossa - 3 Nords? You sound like greengoron. ;)

Also, all of mine are female. My one male is a Breton. I was trying to make him look like Cutlass Jack, and failed miserably.

I have just the one bosmer, which I linked a picture of several pages ago. She's bow/dagger with magic support. Stealth assassin gameplay most times, unless she's shocking fish out of the water with chain lighting and detect life. :P

Remember the Demon Hunter build?  TZ finally made a gameplay vid of it.  Not one of his better works.

Where in the Skyrim directory are you guys able to quickly see what characters you played? I can only guess, but I'd say I've rolled:

Mostly Nords. I'm pretty sure they are supposed to be canon DBs. Plus Nords kick ass.
Some Altmer. I'm one of those people who always roll elves.
Some Bretons. At first I liked the resistance bonus. Now I liked the whole Men-Mer heritage.
One Imperial.
One Dunmer. I lack the artistic talent to make this race look good.
0 Argonians. I can't play a race with a tail.
0 Khajiit. Ditto.
0 Orcs. Generally I'm not a heavy-armor person so I don't think I can do them justice.
0 Bosmer. Nature worshipping/themed characters never appealed to me.

I know mostly because I've uploaded them to an album here...and I spent the time looking through my save files.

But I'm playing on 360, so I assume it's probably easier on pc to find that stuff (?).

Does the swaying tail creep you out? Posted Image I never noticed it too much on (dead) enemies until someone pointed it out. I thought about it again just yesterday, when I was doing The Pale Lady quest. Seeing it on an Argonian was admittedly kind of creepy.

Maybe it was just my experience, but I could have sworn that every enemy saw me whether I was in sneak or not, and it was kind of  frustrating. I eventually just threw a Dremora Lord in each room before I entered it.


Do you use invisibility as well? I maxed out sneak and use invisibility, and I'm able to stay under their radar when I'm not blasting them with Incinerate, or having my Dremora Lords mock them for their weakness. I'm likely not going to use it once Teldryn and my Riekling amigo join my aspiring Telvanni.

I bet you could work for Neloth as soon as you meet him? Not sure, but it's worth trying. P.S. I love Teldryn Sero. ;)


I finally made it to Solstheim last night, and so far, it seems only the main quest is closed off - I was able to help the people in Raven Rock so far, and I've finally met Neloth. Looks like you were right. I forgot how much I missed his Telvanni-ness. I'll be hiring Teldryn for the return trip to Skyrim, to nab a Forsworn Briarheart.

I just named my characters from memory. Which is why I forgot to mention my Redguard. I even couldn't come up with that race name at the moment.=]

I do remember, I was doing quite well with that build. ^_^ I really need to play Skyrim again, it's been a while. The video is indeed not as good as the previous one's. Kinda messy. I was a lot more impressed with the Volkihar video. Still, the build is fun. My Dunmer lady is very tough (on normal mode, haha.)

Normally I'd cast Muffle, and would take perks to make movement silent, and they'd still see me. I think I might have a better shot this time around, as my Sneak is maxed, and I can more or less just walk right in front of a Draugr, and it takes them a moment to notice me, if they do at all. The biggest thing is hanging back, and not letting my follower see them.

I finally got to Solstheim over the weekend, too. I finished up the Dawnguard questline (I still love the Forgotten Vale), and ditched Serana. Good riddance. I have a love/hate thing going on with her. She got more crossbow bolts to the back of the head than I care to recount.

You know, I feel kind of silly. I'd picked up the paragon gems in earlier runs, but never tried them out. So this time around, I got Auriel's Shield for the first time. I didn't even know it existed. /facepalm

Anyway, after all that, I ran back to Raven Rock and picked up Teldryn. Posted Image I put him in the Ancient Falmer armor, and tried to get him to wear a different helmet, but he wouldn't. Ugh, I hate that Chitin armor. Well, specifically, the helmet.

I did *everything* with my Altmer mage and Orc fighter, maybe in a couple of years I'll return to my Bosmer archer who didn't start Dawnguard yet.

^ Sweet, sounds like you're pretty busy! Posted Image

I'm curious how you're classifying your characters, though. Fearmonger? Hydra? What does that entail?

I roll up an Orc whenever I wish do do a  pure (or near pure) warrior run.    Consequently, my stable  of Dovakiins is populated with a dozen Orcs.  I suppose  Nords can fill this role, but they don't  have  the Berserker rage ability to help them against  that level scaling spike that occurs in the mid teens in this game.

With an Orc Warrior you can hold off on smithing till later and still plow through the bandits with ease.

Sounds like you're prepped. Good luck with it. I hope it works out this time.

It's not exactly easy to find, so don't feel bad. :) Still need to do Dawnguard for this run, and I've still never done the Dawnguard side of the story; I'm going to handle it with my werewolf assassin, since he wouldn't accept Harkon's offer to relinquish his lycrantrophy. I'm aiming for the Atherial Crown once I've finished up in Solstheim with my current character.

Funny, I always associate the Chitin armor with him.

Can't find the Unofficial Patch mods anymore on Steam Workshop (the English version), anyone else having the same problem?

Do not see them either currently. Perhaps they are going to update soon, and hopefully return.
