My first (Main) character since Morrowind has been a Nord Warrior, with Skyrim it will be no different.

After that? All of the above.

A magi, katana wielding, master forger.

Primarily "fights" with shadows, mind effecting, summoned creatures, telekensis, and shield spells. (no restoration or destruction)
He really doesn't fight, just causes trouble for the enemy than gets away.
When things get heavy he'll bound a dagger or two. He is fond of bound spears (but forgot the spell [blames jail, but it's probably the skooma] and no one in Skyrim knows the spell either.) When a fight is against a worthy opponent he'll use his Katana.

He doesn't like killing, but he has and knows he'll have to kill again.

Mostly he prefers forging weapons and enchanting scrolls, maybe brewing a few potions if there is time. Though your more likely to find him drinking, smoking skooma, charming women, and conning people.

Primary skills: Illusion, conjuration, alteration, enchanting, smithing, one-handed(blade)
Minor skills: alchemy, speechcraft, sneaking, *two-handed*(in his story he is quite good with a spear, but seeing as how there aren't spears he will not be working on two-handed)

Yeah, so I demand you put this on the poll, so I may vote for it :D

I will create a huge Breton mage with a big nose. His name shall be Aedrian Broady.

More seriously, my characters are usually combat mages, so sword, staff and magic, whatever is best at the moment.

An assassin, who uses wield daggers, which are enchanted with poison, and uses a bow for enemy's that are far away/long range, she's gonna be in the dark brotherhood, and kills mainly for money, in her spare time she will hunt wolves and deers etc, and cook:3

A Nord barbarian, light armour, big weapons, preferably Claymores and Axes. He will be a good guy, but when you get on his bad side, no mercy. :flame:

I heard arrows were going to be really scarce. If they keep it that way, I may have to switch from my typical archer/thief/assassin

I picked Battlemage mainly because that is how I play but I don't limit myself to one style either. I also enjoy playing as a stealth assassin.

You should add a paladin type character to the list. That has always been my favorite way to play. I typically play as a heavily armed character with fairly strong restoration for back up.

So I guess I could officially call my character a Breton Heavy Paladin?

I'm probably going to role a Sword and Board type kinda Warrior, throw in a little Destruction Magic and Restoration, but that's it.

More specifically, Nord, Heavy Armor, Big Shield, Axe/Sword, Destro/Resto Magic, along with Dragonshouts.

( If they have a weapon resemblant to Thor's Hammer, well that would be pretty interesting. ;D )

my first character will be a ranger type assassin. i'll use a bow with a combinations of daggers, short swords, and long swords depending on whats best at that moment. ill also use different spells for buff, debuff, confussion, night eye, healing, detect life, and some fire spells. ill also use poison so alchemy will be a must.

my next character will be a warrior type that will switch between sword and shield and dual long swords, depending on the enemy. hell use buffs, healing, and night eye.

my final character will be a pure mage type that will utilize all the magics. he'll use a dagger and a staff as backup but mostly he'll dual spell.

It'll be nigh-impossible to decide now, before I've seen all the races and builds.

A dagger-wielding Nightblade-esque mage-thief would be wonderful, as would a heavily armored Battlemage who wields a sword in one hand and a staff in the other.

A heavily armored warrior with spellcasting abilities, primarely in destruction and restoration. Or in other words, a Crusader.

Stealth, utility magic, alchemy/poison, short blade, bow.
Prefers fighting dirty to dying heroically, will take any advantages he can get - poison, traps, magic, superior range and/or position, etc..

I prefer an all-round with little armour, blade, shield, destruction, restoration, alteration and armorer. A self sufficient character, independent from potions or that kinda stuff will allways survive!! Probably I'll chose a nord for that or an orc, becase the orc already has a good protection against spell.
