Help me Build my Dragon Priest

Post » Tue Oct 28, 2014 4:14 pm

I am currently planning a Dragon Priest character but I am having trouble choosing between a few different themes for them so I just need some quick advice. The theme will determine their build, gear, and even how they interact with other elements of the theme (dragons, dragon priests, nords, etc).

1. Necromancer (Nahgahdinok): Focusing on Conjuration via Raise Dead spells and perhaps the Summons available in the Soul Cairn.

2. Stealthy Illusionist (Kro'lo): Manipulating enemies via Illusion magic all while never being spotted.

3. Master of Ash and Fire (Yol'bah): Pyromancer mage with added Ash Spells from Solstheim.

4. Warrior (Kendov): Melee-focused, armored (light or heavy) fighter.

Let me know your opinions i suppose. Do remember that the character will embody a Dragon Priest regardless but this will be their "aspect" much like each of the masked priests differs from the previous in some fashion.

I think #3 is a pretty original take and fits the Dragon Priest theme pretty well. I wouldn't associate #2 and #4 with them, but #1 could work as well.

Well the thing is that each is supposed to be something that none of the other Dragon Priests currently does which is why the Fire one has Ash spells added so that it isnt just like the other ones who use fire such as Ahzidal

Dragon priests that focus on raising the dead are pretty bad ass. Using the ritual stone for an undead army is sick.

A dragon priest warrior would be original, but so original it wouldn't feel like a dragon priest. Especially if they were wearing armour. To me a dragon priest has to wear a robe with a mask. Maybe a dragon priest with a bound bow or something could work but otherwise I feel they need a staff.

Just to be clear not all Dragon Priests have masks, only the strongest who received their's from Alduin. If i did choose Warrior he would most likely wear Cultist Robes with Ancient Nord Gloves and Boots
