I put this up because I want to know what type of fighter everyone will be in the land of Skyrim.
I myself will be taking the role of a powerful mage.
I just love the idea of taking on a dragon with a staff.
Please vote on my poll form and give your thoughts on the game so far bellow.
[EDIT 19:29PM] I have added 2 more options to choose from at the bottom of the poll

I voted Mage using both hands. However, it's not just going to be Destruction. I like to mix it up with magic, far more interesting and quite often more effective.

My first character will be a v?lva (shamaness) who will mostly use magic and alchemy. I voted the use potions option, as it was close to the way I envision playing.

Her main weapons will be staves. However, she will use other weapons, for hunting game etc. She does not want to overcook the venison roast with an overcharged fireball, lol.

Don't know truly, my first character might be a Khajiit archer (like the one in screenshot, ah love it!) but i'll definitely want an axe wielding Nord for the MQ :flamethrower:

I will defiantly have 2 mage, archer and warrior types, but my main will most likely be a mage.

Either a heavily armoured warrior with a double - handed axe or a medium armoured warrior with an a axe and a blade!

Breton Battlemage

A sneaky argonian (or maybe breton) with a dagger and magic. And lots of dragon shouts.

I'll Be The Guy That Capitalizes Every Word In My Post.

picked archer, be mr stealthy...

All I know is I would like to play as a Dunmer with whatever permanent strength I can give him/her.

First: Warrior Nord, claymores and muscles and some spells.
Second: Dummer, mix of warrior, archer and mage.
Third: Khajiit, archer with daggers and high agility. A shadow.

I dont like mages.

1. A big and heavy Argonian warrior. Swords, shield, heavy armor.
2. A sneaky Argonian assassin. Daggers, bow, light armor.
3. Somekind of mage.

Think i'll go with the ''Viking'' style.
Nord, Dual-Wield axes, helm with horn and [censored] like that :wink_smile:

Spellsword.
Sword in one hand, spell in the other.

First: Nord Battlemage. Axe, spells and medium/light armor.
Second: Fat Redguard Gladiator. Claymore, loincloth and that harness-thing seen on some screenshots.
Third: Not sure, but maybe a Khajiit with heavy armor and two axes.

I'm kind of bummed by the hands approach because I typically enjoy playing a cleric-like character with a weapon and shield, casting restoration spells when needed.

1st character will probably be a Bosmer huntress.

Will be a stealthy thief assassin character my first playthrough, bows & arrows plus a dagger for cutting throats, and a short sword for if i'm caught and it's time to fight.

my first character will probably just be experimenting with different possibilities, and i'll decide after that.

Hard to say at this moment but i have some ideas floating around.

1) Classic pure mage type. Going to be a more defensive mage so no destruction. Race will be Breton or High Elf.

2) Nightblade but instead blade he will be using either spells only or with spells and a bow. Race will be either Breton (if more magic oriented) or Argonian (if more stealth oriented).

3) Classic spellsword styled character with heavy armor and with one-handed weapon and a spell. Race will be either Breton, Nord or Orc.

EDIT: 4) Bard/Jack of Trades. Blade and shield with light/medium armor backed up by illusion, alchemy and all the available social skills. Imperial or Breton.

-Emp-

I myself would like to be a mage with several types of magic spells. But, I would like an enchanted Short Sword. Thats just me though.

I like Breton focused on magic, especially magic recall. I'm counting on some secret organization to which the necromancers could join.
I also like Khajiit, hiding in the shadows and quietly eliminate enemies from afar.
Good characters are boring as hell.

All I know is that I'm gonna play an Orc or Redguard because of Berserk and Adrenaline Rush.

I usually go with a Bosmer and turn him into a thief type of character...but the magic animations look epic in this game, so I'm torn. Well, I'm glad I can still use magic regardless of my character type. So, I'll probably be my thief Bosmer and if there are magics/potions/enchantments/perks, etc. that support my thieving skills, I'll definitely be loading up on those. I'd like to stealthily notch an arrow and ping an enemy off in the head from a distance. I wonder if there will be an animation following the arrow as it travels through the air and then lodges itself into my enemy's head. I'd also love to be able to pin someone to a tree or something, like I did with the spear gun in Bioshock 2.

I forget about my race
1). This is going to be a High Elf dressed in all white. He will be a Mage and use staffs, maybe 2 sometimes, like Saruman when he uses both his and Gandalf's staff at once.
2). I like to base my characters around films characters and my second guy will be a Ork. Trying to make it look as evil as possible wearing black rusty armor, like a Uruk hai off Lord Of The Rings. http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_mnWCOW8i3lo/SQXEbvr6G6I/AAAAAAAABjM/u7ckqqC-Xvo/s400/DSC00183.JPG or http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://cdn.okcimg.com/php/load_okc_image.php/images/0x0/0x0/0/10123577609252139355.jpeg___1_500_1_500_cb94de6a_.png&imgrefurl=http://www.helloquizzy.com/quizzy/results%3Fquizzyid%3D6335038388595329404%26resultid%3D7&usg=__7zmVAiIeCYHclu5ljf5FTJ82_U4=&h=342&w=500&sz=194&hl=en&start=39&zoom=1&tbnid=1TTGqiYD2l7uwM:&tbnh=163&tbnw=213&ei=R5i1TajKOpGLhQerqazkDw&prev=/search%3Fq%3Devil%2Bwarrior%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26safe%3Doff%26sa%3DX%26biw%3D1280%26bih%3D677%26tbm%3Disch0%2C1000&um=1&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=132&vpy=386&dur=2346&hovh=186&hovw=272&tx=193&ty=166&page=3&ndsp=17&ved=1t:429,r:6,s:39&biw=1280&bih=677
