Short bow with silver arrows, silver throwing knife, silver short sword
His story:
Turin "Feather Foot"Oakleaf was banished from his villege in Valenwood, for reasons untold, and was forced to robb travelers to survive at a young age. After many years of this he became a well known highwayman, for he never seriously injured anyone. preasured by angry travelers, he was arrested by an Imperial patrol. After serving hard time(14 years) he traveled to Vvardenfel in search of a quiet life in the wilderness. There he befriended some of the native nomadic hunters and some of the bartenders in Caldera, Shenk's father. the reason he chooses to use silver wepons is because he says "Nothing is impervious to silver."
Now in his old age he is an instructor at an archery range. He can offten be found in the Shovel(or any pub for that matter) enjoying a nice tall mug of Shien and a good conversation with anyone who will listen to his stories of adventure and legend(politics are his least favorite conversation topic). He is always willing to share some wisdom but will not teach outside the range, or if he knows the student has a bounty for a felony. He holds no grudges. He is also very picky about the people that he does teach( disposition at least 60). In addition he will refuse to travel as a body guard for the rich nobles but, I hear he occasionaly traveles to assist the distrested/ raded farmer and or with a traveling bard.
Note to the modder: As a young mer he got a few tattoos, the only facial tatts he got were eyes drawn on his eye lidds. He used this to visualy weird out his robbery victems.( this is optional to mention in his daialoge).
whoo thats a deep one.., thanks
more dialogue the better i guess
I had lots of time to think for the last weeek and wel it comes to my mind.. maybe i should make this an ultimate grand mod... a long storyline, possibly... and well the basics of my toughts are:
You are yet just a traveller to this city (noone cares much if you are nerevarine) and you get a chance to be a part of city guards ... well not too long after that the city gets invaded and destroyed is all, but the keep... the ruler of this city (likely named Chriss) sends you to a task to find out who the attackers are (you should gather clues) and then go and destroy them all.. i think that ui will make it hard and not just an easy play for 1 day... i could make up to 50hs of MQ + few additional quests. after you have killed the source of city's destruction you return to Chriss and he proposes to give you your own land, and estates and some extra gold and asks you for your help to restore the city .. (for that you will need not just gold, likely...) and when the cityt is restored you maybe could be able to be the lord of the city as well...
Your comments are most welcommed ...
P.s. i knoe such idea was presented here loong before. but unlike that project .. this WILL be finished, I promise, andi hope within this year.. could be a christmass present for you all maybe ...
P.s.s. if i promise something then it means i will do it by all means necassery
