I don't have much interesting personally but my sister is a khajiit and very early on tried taking on the giants outside of whiterun. When she realized she wasn't going to win she booked it back to town, but the giants followed and proceeded to rock the shit out of all the town guard, and then own the khajiit caravan that was posted out there. Now she actively hunts down and slays every giant she comes across. even actively kiting dragons into the camps to help kill them quicker.

Reginald Von Hammercock has an obsession with gold, if there is a coin 5 coins on the table of an inn he will do everything it takes to get them. a single coin in a chest? he will pick the lock even if there is a dragon hot on his heels. (literally)

My character has a bad habit of monologuing. Like a really bad habit of monologuing. It's gotten him severely injured (read: killed) on several occasions. Got a flair for the dramatic, I suppose.

Also, he's chaotic good. That's not so much odd for him as it is for me, since I've never played a chaotic character.

My character has kleptomania O_O I can't do anything with stuff around me. I take EVERYTHING of value. 1 gold to 1 million gold. Skulls, bowls, embalming tools, plants, gold, hell my character would steal people if it was possible.

once and elgant and fine man with a great understanding of the arcane he was a noble warrior mage slashing here and burning there. Saddly after he took one to many arrows and ice bolts to the head. Now he is stupid and brutish he no longer has a skill for magic(i wont/dont use magic)but he also takes a bit longer to realise he is being hurt. Now too stupid to realise what a trap is he has to set off every trap he comes by( if it instant kills him he does not have to set it off again)My character now has 0 magicka as i used console command to convert all his magic points in to health points.

If you want help, strange people, you come to Thassas Mirkwater. Thassas can sort problems for you. Customer need something, ah, retrieved, shall we say? They speak with Thassas. Customer need neighbour go missing? Speak with Thassas. Thassas can solve all problems. Be it shortage of Hist or clearing of crypts, Thassas can solve. For a price.
Of course, keep in mind Customer is -not- always right. If Thassas have problem with your request, Thassas might well feel that -you- must be solved. Is because Thassas have code; code he follows especially since the, ah, incident at Helgen. Nearly being executed does strange things to an Argonian, it must be said. But my code keeps me sane, 'decent' and alive. Of course by decent, Thassas means decent by -his- standards. Remember, there are some things that just aren't done. So, while Thassas may well be robbing you blind one moment, never for an instant doubt the sincerity of his offer to help you. Thassas works well like this.

My main quirk is that I'm enormously polite to people, despite the fact that I'm often going to steal a -lot- of their stuff, or have them killed. I do things by a rather twisted sense of propriety. It works enormously well I think. It's certainly enjoyable enough.

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.

Wow, I'm pretty surprised at the number of people who only play as themselves. I'm even more surprised at the people who call it abnormal. It's a RPG guys. It is, in fact, perfectly normal to RP. It's fun! Honestly, you should try it one time. You might even find you like it. ;) You tend to find yourself playing a certain style, and you find the character developing in your head. It's more like writing a book from a massive amount of templates rather than putting -you- into Skyrim, or wherever you're RPing. It's not the third person; your character most definitely -isn't- you. I'm not really much like my characters. Any of them. I'd like to think I'm nicer than they are, but I don't know. Anyway. As I said, you should give letting your character develop in your head a go. It's a lot of fun. :D

...
so you're saying you want a slavery mod?

EDIT: my character also has the dream of punching every single Jarl.

My skyrim character just seems to have kleptomania. Was the first skill i lvled to 100 and i still steal a ton of stuff whenever there are any valuables around.

And my sister which also plays the game just seems to hoard stuff.. o_O Seems like a lot of people become hoarders in skyrim.

I have a habit of putting away my battleaxe after dropping an enemy to the ground, raising my bare fists, and finishing them off with a first-person pummeling or ye-olde choke-slam.

Other than that, I've managed to keep RPG kleptomania to a minimum, so the only other odd perk I have is taking feint swings at little children who run close by me and say something stupid...which is every time I go into a town with children. Grrrrrrrr...

My Dark Elf scours the land for Imperial camps and joyfully slaughters all of the soldiers there. She'll return to see if they've come back and kill them all. She is obsessed with driving the Empire out of Skyrim.

She also prefers at all times to use magic although her sword is more useful. And she refuses to use Orcish weapons.

My character keeps a list of everyone who has wronged him and once he's completed most of the quests and become quite powerful, he will destroy everyone on the ever growing list.
He also usually only travels at night because he constantly sneaks around.

Two things.

1: Avian loots every corpse. He is a compulsive corpse looter, but normally only takes the gold. I've collected like 300k gold from corpses.

2: KILL THE DRAGONS!!! I can't pass a dragon without killing it. At my level all dragons are really easy.

3: My character loves hoarding powerfull items, I've got a house full of them, but I won't bother if they aren't enchanted.

4: OPEN THE LOCKS; my character lock picks every lock there is to be picked - just to see if there is anything new to be found.

5: Dragon Walls plz; my character searches high and low to find all the dragon walls he possibly can.

The only unusual facet of either of my character that comes to mind(Other then the fact that one of them is a Wood Elf and a close range warrior), is that they act like human beings.

After a long fight, I eat and drink, and I feel the need to take supplies with me on dungeon crawls.

When I'm not out in the wild, I change into comfortable clothing.

I try to sleep regularly.

I don't know anyone else who does this, I guess they're content with coming off as psychotic high functioning autistics.

This is almost too shameful to admit...

My kajiit character is a thief and a member of the Dark Brotherhood... but as much killing and shadow-walking he does... you throw a Magelight around or other such light-based effect and he runs around, chasing them like a kitten on speed and catnip (at the same time)

I was at a friend's house and he had skyrim. I wanted to play it a little bit because my computer isn't usable at the moment. Eventually we decided for a joke to create a female argonian, inspired by Runs-in-Circles. We shouted NI NI NI NI NI NI NI NI NI NI whenever we were sprinting and proceeded to make the game unwinnable by going on a psychotic rampage, and then jumping off a cliff where her tail got caught by the rock and stretched tenfold.

My dark elf is a thief who will steal from basically everyone...except those who trigger her conscience attacks, like beggars, people in debt trouble (who she always finds ways to help), and just people she generally likes. She also plots the downfall of the Thieves' Guild in Riften, even while working for them out of necessity. In fact, half of Riften is on her hit list, at the moment.

Also, because her armor collection is somewhat slapdash and and unfamiliar and she knows it, she tends to avoid fights where possible, or win them through deception (favored tactic: stealing peoples' weapons and armor off them before engaging; hooray for Pickpocket 100). If all that fails though, she pulls out a warhammer and goes apeshit with power attacks.

As well, because she generally dislikes people in the two towns she's been in, she just went full-on Lina Inverse on a bandit camp near Whiterun and then claimed it as her own. Sure, there's bodies everywhere, and a giant dead mammoth in the middle of the floor, but it's got a bed, smithing and tanning equipment, shelves and food stores, earth-tone ambiance...everything she needs except a nearby fence.

Or, my favorite: If he asks me if someone stole my sweet roll, I pickpocket him, leave a sweet roll in his pocket and club him to death because HE STOLE MY SWEET ROLL!
I gotta try that sometime. If one annoys me, currently I just steal all his stuff (all his stuff) and leave him half-naked in the street, none the wiser.
