Any Ideas

Post » Fri May 27, 2011 3:49 am

Well ive been away from the forums and Oblivion for awhile and im starting to play it again. I always end up doing the same thing as far as characters and character abilities go. I want some roleplaying ideas that will spark my intrest in the game agian. So tell me some of your character storys or propose some ideas for me if you feel like it.

I once created a crazy woodelf. His haircut was the same as that of the Adoring Fan. He basically walked around the Imperial City all day starting fights with people around him. His main weapons are his fists. His way of working out is running from the guards. As a hobby he gathers alcoholic drinks and stores them in a barrel for later use.
At night he gets drunk (I had this mod that made the screen all blurry) and he was regurarly involved in bar fights...which he always started tough.

haha thats pretty funny but i want something epic. I was thinking of a wood elf who is tired of being stereotyped as a no good bosmer and becomes a crime lord who ends up finding old tomes that help him tap into his magic abilities. He uses his weatlth of being a crime lord to train and he starts to become obsessed with power and seeks to turn himself into something of a demigod. Thats kinda my rough draft.

That sounds cool. There is mod which gives you an alternative start. It allows you to specify for example that you are a wealthy noble. The moment you start your adventure you will have > 1000 gold to start with. Maybe you can use this mod to create a better roleplaying feeling (and don't worry the mainquest isn't screwed up because you didn't meet the emperor).

A question tough: how are you going to 'find' those magic tomes. Is this a mod you have installed?

Ah yes...I just blindly assume everyone plays on the PC :brokencomputer:

But you are right. If you have some imagination you don't need mods to roleplay. The character you proposed sounds interseting and I would surely give it a try :thumbsup:

If you are always stealth character you could try pure mage or warrior. Breton mage who wants to be an archwizard? Nord Spellsword who wants to become the best blade ever?

RPing a vampire hunter or general monster hunter is always fun. You could start from a witch hunter or crusader base class and modify it to your liking. You could RP that you receive quests from Inn Keepers of Guards to go clear out certain ruins. Use your imagination - it's fun. It adds lots of replay value to the game.

Sounds good. I once had a Breton a bit like that. She wasn't allowed to cast spells because of a curse until she had completed all the daedric quests at which point the "curse" was removed. She lived by stealth for the first 20 levels and completed the TG, although not the DB - she wasn't vicious enough for them. It was a lot of fun.

Some of the books are found only as dungeon loot - you could make those your "rare tomes".
