Your Skyrim Character

[conflictofinterests]

Kahjit cheetah, focusing archery, secondary focusing stealth, and picking up some smithing, enchanting, and alchemy as I go along making all of my own stuff, because FUCK PAYING FOR SHIT.

Also racism against Kahjit makes me sad. Glad I'm allowed within cities, though.

 

[Argtee]

A sneaky dark elf magic user.
That's what I almost ALWAYS played as in Morrowind.

[sub]Man, I love Dark Elves[/sub]

 

[Soviet Heavy]

Nord specializing in Heavy Armor, Two handed weapons, smithing and speech. Currently Thane of Whiterun. Supports the Stormcloaks for their desire for independence, but places the safety of his hold above all else. Would rather the two factions beat themselves up and spare Whiterun.

 

[walrusaurus]

I'm a nord werewolf. Heavy armor and a 2H axe, with lightning spells to take care of those pesky archers. I'm also quite handy with heals and lockpicks.

I'd join the imperial legion if i could ever focus long enough to make it to that fort the Col. Tigh sent me to.

 

[bobfish92]

lvl 32 Dunmer warrior, 100 smithing, full upgraded dragonplate, 90 1 handed (i think), 80ish heavy armour.

 

[Zetatrain]

Level 5 male Nord with a major focus on one handed swords, two handed swords, heavy armor, and block and a minor focus on archery, restoration, and destruction.

Level 2 female Nord with a major focus on archery, stealth/sneaking, light armor, and lock picking and a minor focus on one handed swords, destruction, restoration, and running.

Plan on making a Breton mage.

 

[higgs20]

i'm playing as a nord using two handed weapons, mostly battle axes, and heavy armour. and i'm also a werewolf.

 

[DracoSuave]

Khajiit Dragonpuncher.

Oh, also, archer thief with a helping of atronach summoning for tougher fights. But mainly? Punching dragons (tho that's slowed down now that I have good one-handed weapons)

Currently rolling in cash by doing dirty deeds for my theives' guildies.

 

[Braedan]

Nord who uses only (for melee) one handed axes with a shield, or a number of different magics in the left hand. I also have used bows, but that's because dragons scared me... mostly because of their tendency to on shot me at close range.

 

[TomK]

A dual-wielding Nord swordsman with heavy armor and a serious addiction to the flame breath shout. almost got killed by a thalmor wizard in a random encounter when my weapons weren't even drawn. They will soon regret their treachery.

 

[debra_ beretta]

Lv21 Nord Battlemage.

She's generally very helpful and kind to people- unless they're dark elf filth, of course, in which case she has no time for them whatsoever. A bit of a treasure junkie, she'll go out of her way for some booty or plunder but never *ever* steals or pickpockets. Major skills are one-handed, heavy armour, destruction and conjuration with a bit of sneaking around for those caves full of nasties. Lockpick is also very high, but not for anything nefarious, mmkay?

 

[Bloody Loon]

Female Wood Elf going pretty much exclusively down Sneak and Archery (Up to level 60 in both, and it FINALLY works well in combat.). I have the basic half-mana skill in Restoration so I can heal myself.

I am currently at 190 Mana 200 Health 130 Stamina.

I have 30% bow damage gloves, 80% damage from talents (my glass bow does 54 damage now, plus whatever my arrows do), my sneak attacks with bows deal 3x damage, I can move very quickly with a bow drawn, as well as roll around super-quick while stealthed with silent roll. This means that I can take down most enemies in a single shot from behind, which is incredibly satisfying (just realized I could CHANGE the difficulty, which I might do if it stops being fun to one shot dudes). However, because I wear almost exclusively light armor, but don't have any perks in light armor, I am super squishy, which makes my fights against things that get in close incredibly hectic and fun, and cause me to make tactical decisions on the fly, trying to run and kite enemies who'll kill me in 3 shots, or fighting dragons who can destroy me if I'm not careful.

The one thing I dislike is the ability to use potions. It's necessary, but I dislike that, because it feels like a copout for making a positioning mistake.

My favorite fight in the game was in the hot spring flats, when I just killed a dragon, and used ALL of my potions. Then I immediately saw another dragon come towards me and I quicksaved. That fight, I must have died 15 times, but it was AMAZINGLY rewarding when I killed it.

Still nothing on the drinking contest I got into with a priest, but that's a story for a different day.

 

[ryanxm]

I picked a male nord who uses one handed weapons, shields, heavy armor, and restorative magic. I did end up doing the dark brotherhood quests, so I ended up making him a pretty decent sneaker too. Also he's a werewolf.

 

[debra_ beretta]

Drinking contest? Involve a goat and a hagraven, by any chance-?

 

[TehMightyMidget]

Nord with vertical facepaint named William Wallace, associated with Stormcloak, warrior thief.

Or so my plan goes.

 

[PureIrony]

Level 11 Altmer mage. I can dual-wieldz my firebolts!

And, when thy're out of range for that, I tend to use a bow. I'm trying to avoid using swords and the like unless absolutely necessary, partially for roleplaying reasons and partially because I've almost exclusively upgraded my magicka.

EDIT: How is everyone turning themselves into werewolves? Because an elven werewolf mage sounds awesome.

 

[Robert Ewing]

I'm a sneaky archer mage. I'm so glad Skyrim can let me do shit like this.

 

[Smeggs]

Nord, started out using Destruction and One-Handed.

Moved on to try out the shield/sword warrior classics, but shields guarded fuck all of my health from any enemies, so I dropped that. For a while I toyed around with going Dual-Wielding, then Conjuration. I've used Archery quite a bit.

Eventually I settled on a mix of Conjuration, Destruction, and One-Handed. However it seems to take forever to level them, so I can't really use any spells over Apprentice such as Fireball and Chain Lightning because in only two seperate blasts my Magica is depleted. It literally won't even let me cast it as a Dual-Cast power attack because it costs too much mana. I need Apprentice Destruction before I can be an effective mage. Same thing with One-Handed, can't get the next tier because the skill level jump is a lot higher than the first tier of skills in the tree.

Conjuration is okay for now; Flame Atrinoch pretty much keeps everything at least distracted while I pelt them with Fire Bolt.

I'm thinking I'll start a new character and try to stick to a main grouop of two or three skill trees, I'm quite strung out across a variety right now.

 

[Seanfall]

Wood-elves dont look like total pansies in this game so I chose that for the archery boost. Mostly sneaky sneaky but I'm getting bored of how easy stealth makes this game to play.

Where'd you get the armor? it's niiiice.

 

[Guitar Gamer]

Jack Floyd: Dragonslayer.
Level 12 Orc Giant Slayer (who slays dragons in his spare time)

You're standard array of heavy armored Orc Combat skills as well as smithing and enchanting because it would appear ORcs actually have a penchant for it.
