One question.
Why did he have to hire thugs? If I were an invincible, four-foot powerhouse, I'd chase the [censored] that stole my stuff down and kidney-punch his ass to death.
It makes me think.... why do we need our main character. Get all the advlts to sit there training smithing & enchanting then make an army of kids with Daedric Warhammers to march up and 1hit the dragons...
