One Day You Wake Up In Skyrim As Yourself!

Post » Mon Oct 03, 2011 3:36 am

To the brothel!

Go to the tavern and flirt with the bar maids. :hubbahubba:

Makes me curious to what the people's personal hygiene would really be like. :yucky:


I think I'd become famous throughout the land for stressing the importance of properly washing your bits. :lol:

I sleep nuuuude, so I imagine my first priority would be to find a fire to warm up.

Find a two-handed sword and feel a bit safer. Then I would go for magic.

I sleep in normal clothing minus shoes/socks but regardless I'd pretty much go and stay in a city/town, and try to learn magic - learning invisibility(if in Skyrim) would be my #1 priority.

To spy on the ladies? :hubbahubba:

Dude. There are children! Your first priority should be clothing! xD

As myself? Still human and everything?

What would I do?

I'd most likely die immediately. I have no idea if oxygen even exists on Nirn, or any of the other numerous things that I require to exist.

If we're assuming that I would be alive, then I'd probably just cry and be really sad, then avoid social life altogether because I'm some freak race that shouldn't exist on Nirn. I'd also probably get myself killed within the hour.

Find some clothes - or at least hope that my Chinese silk pyjamas are not seen as being too strange in a Nordic based culture. Find something to wrap round my feet. Not going to get far in my bedsocks (yes my feet are cold - I sleep in socks).

Find dinner - must be some plants that won't kill me. Maybe find a farm. If I do some work maybe they will give me dinner? Maybe I can tell stories based on my limited knowledge of the lore?

Find a settlement if the farm people think it's a good idea. Try and find a way of making a living. Maybe by somehow using the knowledge I have to invent things that are useful here - like better farm tools, steam engine etc. I also need to keep a low profile though - don't want to end up in the loony bin in my jammies.

Quickly try to find a way to stay warm and from freezing to death?? Skyrim is damn cold. I'm from Florida, so anything lower than 60F is freezing to me.

I am not sure, but I would have objectives...

1. Arrive in Skyrim via electric sphere.
2. Locate nearest tavern/brothel.
3. Find person, ask for clothes. Should they refuse I will forcibly take clothes.
4. Locate weapon, depending on era.
5. Steal a cool pair of shades (may require mod).
6. Find John Connor Find the Dovahkiin.

I don't wear PJs. If I woke up in Skyrim, I know I would pretty much be dead meat.

We are assuming that we have any of the skills that a player character would, or do we only have our own personal skills?

I mean, if I woke up in Skyrim today as ME, then I'd probably be screwed. I have some basic survival skills, but I doubt I could handle much more than a mudcrab or two in a fight. I certainly would not want to face huge orcs, redguards, or nords in a bar fight.

I doubt that Nirn would be a very nice place to live. The standard of living seems to be fairly medieval. Having nothing of value and no relevant skills... I doubt I would be much more than a peasant. I would need to find shelter and probably would end up getting stuck doing cheap labor for next to no pay.

I would have to use my 21st century knowledge to try and invent something simple, like a compass, a battery, or a combustion engine (external first, then internal). Hopefully if I play my cards right, I can get wealthy off this. I doubt I could invent something like a light bulb because I'm not sure how in the heck you get tungsten. So... materials problems would be my biggest issue. I know how to make stuff like air conditioning, but I don't know how to make the compounds like Freon that are required. I MIGHT be able to help out somewhere with chemistry, but chemistry seems to work very differently on Nirn.

Lastly, I might be able to do well in the thieves guild. I think my skill set (law school and intellectual skills, generally) are best suited to thievery. I could imagine myself doing very well in a low-tech world with even the smallest amount of training.

Realize that my chances for survival probably aren't so great since a lot of women who gave birth in medieval times didn't make it. But barring that, I'm sure the people of Riverwood would take in a poor, lost, pregnant woman... I hope.

If I'm not somewhere safe and warm: Get to a place meeting said conditions. Then adapt and extrapolate martial skills and do merc work.
In the long term: Find Dragonborn. Help save world. Dragonborn needs helping, what with being an OCD suicidal maniac.

As my self? I wouldn't be an Argonian? :(

Well the first thing I would do was try to learn magic. Unless the rules in this world don't apply to me.

Oh my... I'd probably start with terrified screaming so loud that the Greybeards would yell back to shut me up...

Which would probably also draw the attention of every hostile creature in vicinity so I guess my already minuscule chances of survival would drop even more...

But if somehow I made it to a city and by some miracle managed to survive there and settle down, I'd start making my fortune by "inventing" things from my world. Starting with hair and skin care because when I look at some of the screenshots I really think they could use something in that department... and then I'd start teaching people how to make spears, crossbows and how to increase their hand to hand skill with Aikido ^^

I think I could make it as a small time warrior or blade for hire at first, at least enough to make a living.

Do you know the recipe for any skin care products? I'm not even quite sure how to make SOAP.

... And LMAO:
Invent a spear. Oh... goodness. The irony of that is so deep. A medieval, warrior society, completely ignorant of the most ancient and basic weapon in history. Imagine how popular you would be if you could actually get a patent!


... ''This... is my BOOM STICK!''

To those of you that think you would invent a gun: Do you know a formula for gunpowder? If I dropped you in the woods right now, how long before you could hand me some?
