It seems like the wood elves are going to be taller than they were in say.. Oblivion. One of my favorite characters from Lord of the Rings is Legolas, so I'm excited to try and make my character as much as Legolas as possible. Dual wield some elven blades and use the bow...Awesome!

Not to mention creating an Orc that is like the beastly Uruk hai!!

So are there any characters from other books, games, or movies you will try to make your character look like for skyrim?

I could go on in this thread but ill say 2 lol !

I rlly wish nymph was a race but Sookie from true blood, Bella from twilight ( though im going for a totally different look then the actor that played her lol). Theres a lot more but yeah theirs 2 of them.

k i cant help it, I was thinking of doing Rapunzel (Altmer) beautiful long golden hair ( i will need mods x.x lol) ive alrdy thought of a good back story based off the fairytale. Shes held in a tower by a witch who stays immortal for Rapunzels magical hair ( when she sings can heal and glow (good for night time). The witch leaves for 3 days, a Bandit(ruffian, one of the human races can't decide) is hiding in the tower from gaurds and meets Rapuzel. He makes a promise with her and run away together to Skyrim. They get caught trying to cross the border and are thrown in jail. omg srry wow got excited anyway ~! <3 omg lol.

I would rather create my own character and history, but...

I will try and make a character loosely off of Steven Eriksons Books, Malazan Book of the Fallen series. The Assassin's known as the Claw, who know how to use the magic of the Warren of Shadow, small blade and stealth.

I won't create a character based on anyone in particular. However, Drizzt is kinda' interesting as a model
for a Dunmer Ranger... Kinda'.

Ha Thor would be awesome. A male nord with blond hair, give him a war hammer and some shock destruction magic and he'd be set

I'd like to be able to make a Fingolfin like character - none of the Elves look 'elfin' enough, at least not in the LOTR fashion in my opinion

Which is fair enough

I plan to make Darth Sidious. Black robed, dual wielding lightning, two handed sword.

Im sort of basing my character off of Jango Fett, just the dual wielding bounty hunter bit...not appearance or equipment.

My favourite custom spell from Oblivion was a touch-range Lightning spell that did massive damage over 3-4 seconds, which I called Bloodrocute. Nathan Explosion was already a dead-ringer for Conan in the Thunderhorse video, so Dethklok could easily find their way into Skyrim.

Bosmer aren't going to be any taller than they were before. They've always been short and they aren't going to be any taller this time around, sorry. You could try messing around with Dunmer skin tones and see where you get. :)

I usually create my own characters. I've tried recreating characters before (Samwise and Boromir in OB lol), but they just don't feel right when playing as them in the Elder Scrolls universe, and I don't find role-playing trans-dimensional affairs very rewarding. :shrug:

I was thinking how to do Conan today. I guess you go Nord with Two-handed, Block, Archery, Sneak, Light Armor, Lockpicking. However a lot will be in the perks.

Legolas uses a short bow till Lothlorien, then a long bow after that, with a dagger as backup (in the books).

Miria (My avitar here is her), also known as phantom Miria, is a claymore, lady swordsmans that work for the "organization" and hunt demons, and leader of a group called the 7 ghost, the 7 survivors that survived out of the 30 claymores sent to due the Northern Campaign to die so that the organization could make room for more claymores (only 47 can exist in each "class"). I like her because she cares and watches over the other 7 claymores after the Northern Campaign and also a born leader that, instead of getting into petty fights like some of the other claymores, she remains fair and says that they are all needed to get revenge on the organization. Also, she kicks alot of yoma/demon ass.

I always make a few of my fav characters after I'm bored with my original characters. Some characters I plan to make are Guts (from Berserk- he's my avatar), Casca (from Berserk), Vin (from Mistborn Trilogy), Captain Sojin Komamura (Bleach series- first Khajiit image released make me think of him), Kaine (from Neir), Mugen (from Samurai Champloo), and maybe Sheena or Rita (from the Tales of... series)
