Hi everyone, I'm about to start a new character that I want to beat all main quests with, and maybe some guilds and houses, but I can't decide what to play. I've never played a Nord, don't like pure warriors (or any pure characters for that matter). I like hybrids. And something that doesn't level too fast or is too easy but not over the top challenging. Anyone have any good ideas for a character I might like? Thanks


(Oh, and I don't like using Blades and heavy armor because I've used them so much. Preferably I'd like maybe a monk character or a medium armor blunt/axe weilder. And I don't use mods).

Check the http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/507083-character-database/ for lots of good ideas.

Have lots of characters running so you can just choose which one your in the mood to play with

Dont think anything is more cool than a Dunmer Necromancer and/or Vampire Lord. Gee Gee :celebration:

For the medium armor axe wiedler, it sounds like you want a Nord.
You could make him a thief/warrior hunter class, and grab some bear armor, a bow, and a nordic silver axe from solstheim.

For the Monk, go with a Khajiit, they make great monks.
I think there's even a book in Morrowind that talks about a group of monk Khajiit, from Elsewyr, who specialised in handtohand techniques.
It talks about how a dumner beat them in a tournament because he knew the importance of basic techniques, I think.

Several basic types spring to mind. I'll mention a few standard pre-set Classes so you have an idea what to base a custom class on.


- Skirmisher type. Fast and light on their feet, uses a bow or crossbow at distance and a melee weapon for infighting (Spears are ideal), has some minor magic and/or stealth skills. Scouts and Archers are good examples.

- Warrior-Mage. Exactly what it says on the tin, they mix melee and magic. Spellswords and Battlemages are balanced hybrids. The Sorcerer is mostly Mage with a bit of Warrior. The Crusader and Knight are mostly Warrior with a bit of Mage.

- Stealth-Mage. The Nightblade is the best example but there are several different ways of doing this.

- Monk type. Monks obviously, but also Healers.
