What race will your warrior, Mage, and assassin be? : V

» Tue Jul 19, 2011 8:48 am

Just say "my warrior will be a Nord, my Mage will be Altmer, etc." (I'm on a phone and can't make a poll).

edit: got home and made it a poll

Warrior: Redguard or Orc. I haven't decided yet.

Mage: Breton or Altmer, depending on how powergamey I want to be (In Oblivion I chose Altmer to get the most Magicka possible).

Assassin: Probably Imperial or Argonian, depending on the available guild.

Thief: Khajiit or Bosmer, depending on the overall mood of the game.

Spellsword: Most likely a Dunmer, though I may go Breton just for the Magicka boost.

I refuse to make a Nord in Skyrim, just as I refused to make an Imperial in Oblivion, a Dunmer in Morrowind, and a Breton in Daggerfall (I did make a Redguard, though).

Altmer mage, because who needs to be versatile when you can just overpower the other guy with sheer quantity of magika. Also all the cool mages are Altmer, Mannimarco, Mankar.

Warrior- Nord or Khajiit
Mage- Breton or Nord
Assassin- Argonian, Nord, Khajiit or Bosmer

As you can see I am easily confused. I will be starting the game as a Nord Assassin, don't know what after though

my warrior is always an argonian due to there disease resistance and poison immunity and there ability to breath underwater but if im going barbarian i always go orc and even though i hate them i cannot question the talent of bretons as mages and and if your gonna go stealth its always a good decision to be a bosmer.

Need to see the racial bonuses before I make up my mind.

A human, elf and beast race for each Archtype.

If Bretons still have a high resist magic racial ability I will use them as my warrior and mage, otherwise I will just use them as my mage.

The only character I've got in mind so far for Skyrim will be largely to test whether race or playstyle or anything else makes any difference at all in the long run, and in part just because it amuses me - a Breton heavy armor stealth character who'll dual wield axes.

I've actually always preferred to play against the grain in TES games anyway, and that because of, rather than in spite of, the innate disadvantages. It remains to be seen whether that will even be possible in Skyrim - if there will even be a "grain" against which to play.....

Orcs are lookin' to be pretty intimidating in Skyrim with the new faces, so that'd probably be my 'Warrior'.

Nord for my 'Mage', since I usually mix magic with my melee. The prospect of playing a mystical mountain man is too epic to ignore.

Female Dunmer for my 'Assassin/Thief', methinks. Depends on what the voices end up sounding like, since male is nearly just as likely.

Warrior: Imperial.

Mage: Breton.

Thief/STEALTH assassin: Imperial.

Just because you're an assassin, does'nt mean you have to use stealth to be an actual assassin. You can go in guns blazin' uh....Swords a swingen.

1st character Nord or Orc warrior...don't know which yet

» Tue Jul 19, 2011 4:34 pm

I'm Dunmer for all three but as a rule I'm generally an assassin

» Tue Jul 19, 2011 2:08 pm

Nord + Dunmer + Bosmer = Wal Kilmer
