Recreating a character from a different game in Skyrim

Post » Thu Dec 15, 2011 10:21 am

Hello everyone - I have always been a big fan of the Age of Wonders series and I was wondering - for any here who are familiar with the AoW series - how would you build Meandor in the game?

I never quite thought of Meandor as a pure wizard especially since his AoW1 days as he appeared in the last campaign map. Of course in Aow2 we had no choice about it -but I always saw him as handy with a blade but focusing mostly on electricity and death magic.

I am thinking something along the lines of focusing on the following skills:

One-handed, Destruction (lightning focus), Conjuration (summon undead and storm atronachs), and Enchanting. I am undecided as to whether I would add another skill of Alteration or Light Armor.

So how would you build him within the scope of an Elder Scrolls game? Hoping that once I have a good consensus of input I can create one of my favorite characters Thanks everyone!

I'm often wary of creating characters based on those in other fantasy worlds because they often don't mesh.

A good example is a lot of famous fantasy wizards, may struggle in Nirn, because Mages tend to be very much a support class rather than frontline. I think this disappoints many people who have different expectations.

With how Sneak apparently works in this game someone should make the Blademaster from Warcraft 3....Mr OP himself. (No athletics though :( )

I carried one of my characters over from Oblivion. He was caught in a time vortex and ended up 201 years later at a border crossing between Oblivion and SKyrim, the rest is history.
