Your Skyrim character quirks.

[Cactoos]

No, Raj have no quirks. Pretty normal person.

Other then when on moonsugar. Or Skooma.

Ok, Raj have many bad habits. Cant help but eat everything pick up. "What giants toe taste like? BLARG! Taste like Damage Stamina!"

Raj also collects Buckets. Wife Mjoll complain. "Why you must have room full of buckets!?!?" she always ask. "What if person want to steal Raj bukkit? Must have many in case they do!" i tell her. She not understand.

Worst habit of all? Raj hate wearing helmet. To confining. So when combat start, Raj not get any armor bonus. Get butt kicked because leather hood cramp style.
Make me look like necrophiliac. Raj not want to look like necrophiliac!
Time he sleep with corpse was complete accident. Honest.

..... Should probably lay off sweetroll. They make Raj do strange things. Stick to moonsugar from now on.

I just... have no words to describe how much you rock.

I love you though. Thought you should know.

OT: My wood elf is pretty anal about saving everyone. Seriously, I'll restart that stupid quest if I lost some unimportant side-character. And I'll usually be able to save him.

But then they'll usually run off and get killed by an angry, ANGRY frost troll. At that point I'm also running for my dear life, seeing as the troll hasn't quite yet calmed its appetite, so screw the side-characters.

First time poster, long time lurker, decided to finally make an account after reading this thread. Good stuff.

Anyway, my character, Samuel L. Vas Normandy is an Imperial with a fetish for that Dunmer booty. He travels everywhere with his wife, Breylin who he uses as his pack mule. Even though he has 100,000+ gold he never passes up good loot. In fact, he will actually wait outside of a store for 3 days straight just to sell more things for more gold he doesn't need. Not only that but he will gladly take stray gold off of another person's desk and search every single Drougr corpse just for that extra 3 gold.

He gets a boner whenever he passes any alchemy laboratory stocked with alchemic ingredients, because as we all know, ingredients = potions = MORE GOLD!

He also seems to have Alzheimer's and often forgets what his wife looks like, usually blasting her with a good incinerate in the heat of a battle.

He's also a dick who does whatever he wants, often for the lulz, such as

Spoiler

killing the emperor and then immediately joining the Imperial Army afterwards.

He also dresses his house mannequins in the clothes of slain high ranking political leaders for his own amusement. He also has no problem with killing his own friends for good loot.

He's also a massive coward, letting his wife take the lead into a fight, while staying in the distance, blasting fireballs from a safe position.

 

[CruisingForBiddies]

I have made my Wood Elf is a stoic loner on his travels in Skyrim, never using the horses or pesky companions as they only get in the way. Avoids any mead or alcoholic beverages because he does not need to drink to have a good time. But take great satisfaction in killing those necromancers (and even more so Horkers)... and will often raid a Stormcloak camp because he is a cheeky one.

 

[Troublesome Lagomorph]

I don't ride horses and I only take valuable things. I NEVER steal and am not joining any "shady" groups. With that said: I'm a sneaky bastard who loves to spam his destruction magic when things get ugly.
I also use a lot of alchemy, but only harvest bugs when they're killed while I'm fighting something. I almost always calm wild animals or run into a stream and let it carry me away.

 

[Jack O'Shea]

My khajiit has an un-natural attraction to cicero's hat ever since he got it he has not removed it by choice. Loves the the books, he breaks into peoples house's to read their books. Never uses followers because his conjuration skill is his best skill and he summons all the help he needs. Doesn't carry any weapons (except some fun ones like the wabbajack) and collects all the dwarven stuff he can find cogs, bent pieces of metal stuff like that.

 

[Ninja Twinky]

my character has this weird quirk of being REALLY stubborn.
just yesterday he finished looting a chest at the end of a dungeon and was deciding which items he could afford to carry, what with his carry capacity almost full, but then he decided screw the rules. picked up everything in sight, then slowly, oh so slowly, traveled back to whiterun at a surprisingly slow pace.

 

[Gutkrusha]

My character is a descendant of my Oblivion character named Spock. He is Spock the Third, he was trained in the stealth arts by his father, who was in turn trained by his father.

Upon his coming of age he was inducted into the Crimson Scars; an ancient organization populated by the true worshipers of Sithis. Even though both his father and grandfather were listeners for the Dark Brotherhood, none knew of the Scars.

Spock III moved to Skyrim to bring the pretenders who claim to be the last of the 'Dark Brotherhood' to heel or, if necessary, perform a purge and rebuild it from the ground up. It is as Sithis demanded of his father, and in return was demanded of him.

Instead of going straight to the Brotherhood and make his presence known, Spock III makes use of his superior stealth skills by joining the Thieves Guild and using their 'missions' to familiarize himself with the landscape, political climate, and disposition of the people of Skyrim.

In doing this he has become excessively wealthy and he has acquired many useful trinkets and tools to assist in his ultimate mission.

The time is soon, 'Brotherhood', you better live up to his scrutiny, else you'll not live at all.

-Spock III


Also; I enjoy shooting people in the dick with bound arrows.

 

[Kizo18]

My character's most defining trait is his passionate hate for the undead, vampires and werewolves. He goes out of his way to kill them. He is very annoyed at not being able to kill the Companions after finding out about them.

Also stockpiling potions, because you never know when you will need that blacksmith potion, although he never even tried smithing.

 

[chinangel]

Artannis the Serpent is well known for drenching her swords in poisons. Her armor is sleek and dark, making her foes concerned that she may not be entirely human. She would have a terrifying reputation....

if she didn't hate goats so much.

She LOATHS goats. Perhaps because Morrowind has no goats, this dark elf believes that they are not of this world. For demons walk upon cloven hooves, with rams horns and heads of a goat. CLEARLY this so-called 'simple barnyard animals' are, in truth, gateways to damnation and despair.

Thus...Artannis kills goats. She will chase them down and butcher them without mercy and DAMN WHOEVER STOPS HER FROM THIS RIGHTEOUS AND NOBLE QUEST!

Thus it spoils her otherwise dread appearance when she breaks combat and goes screaming after a shell-shocked goat, intent on slaying it.

 

[Deadpool062]

So now we've had over 200 Skyrim threads already, we're now discussing made up quirks on your made up characters?

Really people, there's a fine line between what's normal and what isn't, and you guys can't even see the line.

I concur. It's kinda odd to see people referring to them in third person. Isn't it your creation, therefore a virtual you? Weird.

 

[ShindoL Shill]

my character always uses his strongest weapon currently being used in his left hand (probably because i'm a leftie).
he alse steals so much that i need to go to three different fences to get rid of the crap i have (dont have a house yet...)
and he

Also, I try my best not to kill other Khajiit, I always cast a spell on them to calm them or fear them away, I'll be running slashing an orc to death with my Nettlebane and an enemy Khajiit is running away cause I hit him with a fear spell, or is looking at me like 'wtf' cause he's been calmed.

same here actually. the only other Khajiit i've seen are the traders, one 'Khajiit' who attacked me and Varsha, who i wanted to love and keep and hug and do depraved things with.

and he kills anyone who he can with no witnesses. Riften has got literally no patrols, just the garrison, because the dumbtards solo the crime capital of the northeast.

None really, aside from making regular trips back to Blackreach because it looks so awesome, and never using companions because all they will do is get in my way.

same here. i hated the mission with Mercer Frey because he doesnt have Light Foot and i do. i kept having to roll ahead to take out all the draugr so he wouldnt wake them. i also had to snipe all the fucking deathlords using him as a distraction (not his fault, he kept sprinting in!)
and the wanksock says I'M not stealthy.

My character's most defining trait is his passionate hate for the undead, vampires and werewolves. He goes out of his way to kill them. He is very annoyed at not being able to kill the Companions after finding out about them.

so basically, you're RPing a Vigil of Stendarr?

and apparently he can see dead people. not two minutes after i kill a guard, an uninteractable guard appears nearby.

 

[searanox]

That is not "your character."

That is you.

 

[aegix drakan_v1legacy]

I don't have skyrim yet, but I am playing Morrowind. Probably going to play the same kind of character in Skyrim too.

My Morrowind khajiit (swiftheart) is a bit of a compulsive thief...but not out of greed. See, he believes that everything belongs to everyone. So he usually only takes stuff that's useful to him, or leaves the original owner some of his valuables in order to be fair. Exceptions are guilds that I belong to (I raided the hell out of one of the mage guilds once, because they should really be sharing that stuff with me in the first place!), stuff in outdoor chests (if it's outside, it's for everyone! Why else would it be outside?), if it belongs to a jerk (he probably took it to hoard for himself! Greedy jerk....), or if the thieves guild asks for it (Read a book one time that said that the thieves guild is a group of friends who help each other! Of course I'll help my friends!).

He's also a bit generous. He spends a lot on bribes to make people friendly, and one time, when a bandit came up to him on the road and asked peacefully for his money, his response was "Oh? You want some money? Ok, sure! Here you go!". He also only kills if attacked, or if the guy clearly deserves it. Swiftheart HATES slavers. And cammona tong, those guys are rude and nasty, especially to his thieves guild friends!

Lastly, he's a recovering Sugar Tooth. After spending his youth under the influence (and spending much time in prison for it), and after finally "waking up" during his early days in morrowind, he's trying to stay away from moon sugar. He's afraid to slip back into his days of dreaming and not thinking again. That said, he has a bunch of it in his house (well...the one he's "borrowing" anyway...) that he can't seem to sell, and it's very very tempting....

Is that it? ....Oh, and he has a tendency to skip everywhere (faster than walking). That's pretty much it.

 

[SidingWithTheEnemy]

My character is obsessed with money. He wants it and he wants it badly, he wants to own Tamriel - financially.
He might Dragornborn, he might already slain tons of Dragons, but he does it for the Dragonscales to make those hyperexpensive Dragonbone Armour-thingys.
He is even an accomplished Master of the Arcane arts and maybe the first Orc Archmage in the history of Tamriel. But all he wants is to swim in money...

He rather goes smithing his Ebony Bows and selling them than looting dungeons. Maybe he wants to start his privately funded War against the Thalmor with a private army of mercenaries all clad in Dragon Armor / Daedric Armor or maybe he just wants to own them and buy their silly Aldmeri Dominion off their sorry arses.

 

[CRRPGMykael]

Well, my character is part of just about every guild in the game, so I'm pretty sure he's an indicisive prick (or has schyzophrenia). OK, that's not exactly what you wanted, but that's all I can think of...oh and I also can't ever walk away from a fight. Imagine some mudcrab is following me while I'm galloping on my horse. Obviously, I'm much faster than him so I could easily just get away, but I always end up getting off and killing that nigga's ass.

 

[Thk13421]

My Orc sometimes forgets that his daily racial power lets him turn from a competent and deadly warrior to a Steel-clad, bladed, screaming murder-demon pulled from the nightmares of children. He's funny that way.

Seriously, I cured my werewolfism because it seemed redundant when Berserk Rage did the same thing, but let me keep my mace and armor.

 

[EBHughsThe1st]

My character is virtual and has no personality or free will that goes past the confines of conversational options or my personal control.

But I did design as an orc that looks quite a bit like a homeless person.

Bill the Orc can't fight anyone without pointlessly shield-basing them. Even enemies where it has no effect.

He's an honest homeless dragonborn, though. He has yet to steal or kill someone for something, so that's...something.
