There are no right or wrong answers here. This would be how I would do it. I want your input to see if you have any new ideas for me.


So basically, the "force" in Skyrim in my mind would be magic. *MY* Jedi in particular is going to balance magic/force abilities and shouts, especially defensive ones, and a "lightsaber" or a sword.


I'm aware you can get pretty creative with this, but I wanted my Jedi to have 1-handed weapons and magic abilities in his hands. I didn't want to dual wield or go 2-handed while possibly excusing magic entirely, which are both viable options.

Oh, my Sith would be the same except for adding in Destruction magic as well and using lightning spells. I wouldn't bother with Conjuration because I just don't see that happening, but I'm open-minded!

Looks good to me, I'd add conjuration (although you wouldn't really need to perk it much) so you can have a bound sword as your lightsaber. That probably removes the need for smithing too.

@Redfox707 - If you're on PC and want to go beyond the stock game, this would be your ticket to the Jedi look and feel:

You might want two handed, actually. The only style that uses a single hand regularly is Makashi and Jar'Kai (Dual Wielding) most of the lightsaber styles utilize a two handed approach. The great thing is there was a point in history (especially amongst the sith) where they actually utilized Vibro blades over Lightsabers. These functioned as two handed swords. They would then use Sith Alchemy/The force in order to further enhance their blades. So enchanting works really well here.
