Obviously, you would have sneak with a stealth character and destruction with a mage character... but are there any other skills you mix and match with your different types of characters? For example, I always use illusion and alteration with my stealth characters, and restoration with my heavy armour dudes, and blade with a mage... what skills will you be using the most in skyrim?

I've always been fond of creating a hunter/woodsman character because I spend a lot of gametime out wandering the countryside and living off the land, so that will probably be the type of character that will take shape during my first playthrough.

His skills would be 1 handed...more specifically, both axe and dagger 1 handed, as any good huntsman keeps a sharp knife at his belt, and a sturdy axe at hand at all times. Next would be archery and sneak, which when used in combination will not only allow him to stealthily eliminate any potential enemies before they can pose a threat to his life, but will also allow him to effectively hunt the local deer and elk from a distance so that his belly is kept quietly full. Alchemy comes next...a skill honed and mastered with patience and practice and years of living as a woodsman surviving in the wilds of the land. Smithing is of course a must in any survivalist's skillset for you never know what troubles lurk in the mist hovering beyond the next row of pine and so keeping one's gear in fine working order is of the utmost importance and being able to fashion new weapons and armor from whatever materials are at hand is a trade valued by any and all who often travel swiftly...but never fast. Finally, after years spent in the out-of-doors the man has not only sharpened his senses and become one with his surroundings --able to detect(mysticism) the presence of any life in the area before it crosses his path-- but he has also been accepted by the more savage wildlife that populate these untamed and natural lands -- so much so that he is able to command(illusion) many of them at will and is often seen travelling with a small black bear at his side, or with a sleek and silver wolf, kept as a loyal companion and friend.
