I proposed in the othe OTHER thread like this one last month several ideas, I guess I'll repost them again for the new crowd, hahaha:
1. Lycanthropic Traps .... there is a plague of were-beasts befalling borders regions and many traps have been dug warning you of these pits. You can't see them, but you can fall into them. There are tons of them, and they are deep, filled with spikes. You fall, you die. If you get through the minefiield of traps, then a pack of werewolves get you. Game over. Hey, you were warned!
2. Hungry Giants .... they patrol the borders looking for fresh meat. They are very big. When they catch you, they pick you up and shove you into their dank, smelly mouths, there is blackness, and a crunch. Game over.
3. Border Guards ... they arrive (like 20 of them) and each one fills you full of arrows non stop until you die. Game over.
4. Terrible Storms ... they slowly explode from nowhere, raining so hard you can't see in front of your face, or in the colder areas, snowing like a blizzard. The blizzard drives all of the wild animals in the area crazy, and as one they stampede through your area, knocking you over and trampling you to death. Game over.
5. A Magical Curse ... surrounds Skyrim. Those leaving the borders without clearance from a central authority and a magical seal permitting you to do so are teleported at random back into Skyrim. If you wander too far out, you will begin to get messages about "you feel a mystical buzzing warning you to turn around and abandon this path." If it's ignored, a flash of magical energy surrounds you, and you are thrown back at some random location within Skyrim. Totally random. You could end up all the way across Skyrim .... you never know.
