Guys I just had a great role play idea! Instead of role playing an assassin only based character.. Play as a ninja based character. It really opens up the role play opportunities in Skyrim. A ninja can join the companions and still be in role, thieves guild and still remain in role, dark brotherhood and still be in role and if you plan on using any magic the mages college and still remain within the aspects of the characters role play
I finally found my calling in Skyrim. Ninjas can use greatsword for when the crap hits the fan or where daggers just wouldn't be suitable.

I think this would be an awesome character to role play!

A sticky on this thread would be nice if it gets as popular as I hope it will be.

Also what may add to the immersion is writing down your characters actions and such in a journal. Document their life from his/her perspective

A ninja needs to jump from roof to roof,which is not likely in the game XD More like,a ninja having tough time going over that boulder and deciding to take a tour around it.

Maybe I'll roleplay a thief that robs the local merchants only to find out he cannot sell any of it and than dumps all of them into the river? =D

Join the thieves guild if you want to sell stuff you rob:)

That would definitely be hilarious!
Idk, I know ninjas can jump from rooftop to rooftop but it isn't necessary to be a ninja
If your on PC I think I may have seen a mod that makes you jump higher but I am not sure. But it definitely isn't necessary for a ninja based character IMHO.
