Skaal roleplay help

Post » Sun Dec 15, 2013 9:32 am

Red's dead and so is Durza so I want to do a Skaal roleplay but not as a Nord.

I have no idea what to do or what other race would be good for a Skaal roleplay (Not imperial or Breton).

I do know that the character will marry Morwen and live in her house. My character will have to be the Dragonborn to do some things but I won't do more of the MQ after killing the 1st Dragon and I will only do Dragonborn MQ up to
Spoiler
destroying the stone near Skaal village. I will destroy the other stones so the NPCs can do what they so best.
but I have no idea how to roleplay a Skaal.

Why stop now? All the more reason to keep going. I dont really see how you can do a Skaal RP as a non nord.

Wants to roleplay a tribe of Nords, but doesn't want to play as a Nord.

Makes perfect sense.

One of the human like races will work better, so Imperial, Breton, Redguard, you ended up cutting your choices by saying no to Imperials or Bretons.

I guess a Dunmer will also work, will be pretty simple actually, they were adopted as newborns into the tribe/village, done and done, just have to use a little imagination and think outside of the box and stereotypes, and it will work.

You can ignore the Dragonborn part and do that part out of character.

How it could work- Male Nord Skaal Married Female *race*. Female dies which leaves Nord father to raise the kid on his own but since he doesn't know much about the way of life for *kid's race* he then raises it as a Skaal. Later the Playerborn's father dies which is why he isn't in the game.

Based on the location, and the history of MW-Bloodmoon, and what happened to MW prior to Skyrim, I would say an Imperial makes a lot of sense since they did have a fort there at one time. Also obviously Dunmer (just wish they weren't so ugly in Skyrim).

I've made a female Altmer. Why? Because I'm crazy.

I've put more thought into it and I know to only kill what I must kill to survive (got to eat and stuff).

You're going for the Eskimo look aswell with Skaal armour? I personally love that set, it just looks perfect for a survivor in the cold. :smile:

Anyway, hope you'll enjoy her.

Here is a better picture of http://i.imgur.com/ivYntWz.jpg

I have decided that she will use Nordic carved weapons and armour and/or Stalhrim weapons and armour. She will wear Skaal clothes when not wearing her armour.


I think her skills will be
1H
Archery (hunting)
Sneak (hunting and sneaking past animals that are not to be harmed)
Smithing (Only when Baldur Iron-thingy is near the forge to pretend he is making and improving her stuff)
Light and Heavy armour (Light Stalhrim armour, Skaal clothes and Nordic Carved armour)

I might use Alchemy to make paralysis poisons so my character can run away instead of killing.
