Need help deciding which character to pick :/

Post » Sat May 28, 2011 9:00 am

I've had two ideas for good roleplay characters stewing in my head for a while now, but only recently did they reveal their names and stories to me. So I need help deciding which of these characters to play first, because I already have a character on the go and playing 3 at once will just confuse me D: Please, out of these 2, which do you think will be the more interesting to play.

1. Argonian Agent
Name/Class: Two-Face / Agent
Race/Gender: Argonian / Male
Birthsign: The Warrior
Specialization: Stealth
Attributes: Agility, Strength
Major Skills: Alchemy, Illusion, Sneak, Athletics,
Light Armor, Blade, Block

Please note, all of these details are subject to change.

Although he does not know his birthname, and to potential employers calls himself Two-Face, to those who may not trust him based on name he calls himself Reeh-Kah, which just means Two-Face in Hist Language. He will get to a certain point in the Dark Brotherhood where you are given a mission by Lucien, but will progress no further than that. He will also assassinate all of the Mythic Dawn Agents who are hidden, as well as taking on private contracts.


2. Breton Healer

Name/Class: Elodianne / Healer
Race/Gender: Breton / Female
Birthsign: The Apprentice
Specialization: Magic
Attributes: Intelligence, Willpower
Major Skills: Restoration, Light Armor, Blunt, Blade,
Hand to Hand, Armorer, Heavy Armor

(Yes, Restoration is the only major that will be used)

Elodianne was a simple student of her mother's as a mage when she was killed and Elodianne was blamed for the death. When she wound up in the Imperial Prison, magic came to her fingertips and killed a rat. Feeling her horror at taking another creature's life, but knowing to get through the rest of the sewers she would need to kill, after she left she vowed never to kill another living thing, so she travels with a small band of adventurers and acts as both cleric and buffer to the team.

Based on your reply i will assume you've never played the main quest, after a certain quest they will attack on sight, posing as normal citizens

Option two sounds like a more interesting challenge.

Though I'm not sure I see the moral imperative with "not taking a life" vs. "assisting those that take a life" is okie-dokie. Both ends are formed of the same mean. If it's more of an aversion to either the physical aspects of violence or the results, either way I think you'll have a better time trying to RP this build.

If I played the healer with companions I would swap Blade for Alteration. The character already has two major skills that require strength. EDIT I did not notice you had Armorer already-I might use Merchantile or Security in place of Blade.

You see, I'm not using any of my major skills except Restoration in order to limit my level and make levelling SLOOOOOOOOOOOW.

My reply to this is the same for all threads of this type....which ever one you feel like playing. Play them both at the same time on seperate saves if you want. A more proper title for this thread might be "Which of these builds woukd you like to play?", with "you" being the reader.

I <3 my Healer.

Go for that, I think. I too use Restoration as my main skill, I augment it in combat with Conjuration and Illusion (when pressed). Illusion is also good for getting in and out without being seen.

Helena, my Healer, has been the most fun character I've ever played other than my pure Mage in Morrowind.

Best. Roleplay. Ever.

In my opinion. So far, anyway. Haha.
