I don't really role-play but I always lean toward two-handed weapons because I LOVE the ebony blade.
If that counts.
I have a level 54 Dual Wielder that happened to find Okin and Eduj at level 6.
The enchants are not very good, Elemental Fury will not work, but My character still uses them.
I used the same Hunting bow on my Stealth archer character for 180 hours.
I do something like this as well. But I would try to max out that weapon with Smithing as well as Enchanting as much as possible. And if that weapon served me well then before I switch it out, I would put it in a nicely lit corner of my house as commemorate to its service as well as my progress in the game. Only a few weapons such as the Skyforge Steel Sword/Elven Sword combination, as well as the Nordic Bow had served me that well, that long.
Yes actually. On one of my favorite RPs my Nord kept her trusty Nordic Carved War Axe since the day she forged it. Never enchanted it though, just didn't feel right.
Anything that is Dwarf....Im the old school 'dwarf' rp person, so when i hear that come up i form a bond, even though in this game it does not mean the same thing.
