Bruma's such a lovely town, and the Pale Pass quest will be good training for the possible Akaviri killing in TES V. :P

As exciting and nail biting as that sounds, I'll pass. Oblivions world map was small enough without restricting me to one segment of it.

That, and I dont really like Bruma that much.

Ugh! Bruma's such a terrible place. It's cold and snows all year round. The Nords are simply barbaric! And the neighborhood of the only place up for sale isn't the nicest (considering the next-door neighbor is a Speaker of the Black Hand). :P

Bruma? BRUMA? Live there?!....

... that actually sounds like a nice challenge. Try to reach level twenty just by staying in Bruma as soon as you escape the prison.

I really like your noble stance and all, what with 11-11-11 just around the corner. Unfortunately my Dark Elf will have to pass.
He doesnt cope well at all in those conditions, his nose runs, the fur coat makes him sneeze and the only way to get the blood going is to hit a Nord. Very hard.

No wonder Skyrim and Vvardenfell have a troublesome history. :verymad:

This is what I have done the last four years every winter :tongue:

Nah, I'd say that the Jerall Mountains are really not big enough to keep me interested for that long. I'd rather have all of Cyrodiil, and Shivering Isles, and part of Elsweyr, for that matter (Since I'm using the Anequina mod now.) open for exploration, why restrict myself to such a small portion of the map? Besides, I'm sure we'll see plenty of Nords and snow in Skyrim, so I see no reason to go out of my way to see more than necessary now.

I have nothing against Bruma, but I think I'll pass on this suggestion.

Heh, getting my elf to take direction, even from me, is rather akin to herding cats, so I am certain that saying: 'this is what you must do' will elicit the following type of response:

I lifted my chin defiantly, planted both hands on my hips and firmly stated, "Like I told that Jauffre fellow, you're not the boss of me!"


When the time comes, I'm sure she will enchant some rings with resist frost and venture north to Skyrim. In the meantime, with her preference for warmer climes, I expect she would consider living in Bruma in the same vein that she would look upon the concept of practicing bleeding. :dance:

I love this. I managed to spray tea all over the monitor and keyboard. Off to get a cloth, it would seem.


But in keeping with the thread, my characters will venture to Bruma, but none of them will confine themselves to the Jerall Mountains. Wanderlust is too great.

Getting an Argonain to go and live in Bruma?!
Haa-Rei says no because: 1.It's very, very cold. 2. There are lots of bears.

How about Leyawiin...or Anvil! Lovely, warm Anvil...
