Name: Yachak
Race: Nord
Class: Shaman (custom)
Birthsign: The Mage
Attributes: Intelligence and Willpower
Spells & Abilities: Destruction magic with a special focus on shock damage and paralyzation with a side order of transmutation and illusion.
Factions: None

Think I'm going with something like this:

Name: Skaar Runegaard
Race: Nord
Birthsign: Warrior
Specialization: Combat
Major skills: Armor (light for fur and leather), 1H Sword, 1H Axe, Shield and Bow or possibly Throwing Spear if they're in.
Minor skills: Athletic/Acrobatic, Smithing.
Class: Huscarl
Personality will be towards the 'strong loner' type with a high sense of moral and ethics (protector of the weak).

Goldskin
High Elf (If they make 'em cool as back in Morrowind)
The Steed
Will use onehanded (Preferring goldbrand)
Goldskin has always been faster, better with a longblade and spear, and allot more fearless than his weak cowardly kind...
'He worships Peryte dragon of change, Clavicus Vile lord of souls, and boethiah god of betrayal!
He ended up in prison after the damn guards infiltrated his moonsugar smuggling ring...

And if the High Elves are lame... (Like Oblivions...)

I'll make a Redguard sorceror!!!

Race: Khajit
Class: Assassin variant.
Skills: One-hand weapon, athletics/acrobatics, alchemy, enchanting, sneak, security, illusion.

DW-Daggers sneak-attacker with enchants and poisons running on both. Illusion for quick re-sneaks and night-eye.

Name: Grimdeath
Race: Argonian
Class: Necromancer
Birthsign: The Atronach
Major skills: Spears if possible (otherwise staves + daggers), Destruction, Conjuration, Alchemy, some form of Armor (probably light if available)
Minor skills: Smithing, Security, Sneak, ???, ???

This may change depending on skills available but I will play as evil. The stealth minor skills are due to the fact I typically have sticky fingers I will join any magic based faction possible. Eventually I will have a deep, dark lair full of skulls and candles to practice my rituals muahaha!

I do want to try a stealth/bow based class eventually as well though.

I will of course play as

Techno Viking
Nord Male
Born under the Warrior
And of course I will focus on large axes, no armor skills and if the implement it - I will choose the dance skill!


But my main character will probably be a male Breton battlemage as it was my first choice in both Morrowind and Oblivion

Einarr, Nord for my first play through, focusing on blade and shields with some destruction magic thrown in for a bit of fun. Followed by Lonely Fisher, Argonian, whose been around since Morrowind, so it's safe to say he'll be pretty old this time.

Name; Holmlund (IRL Name XD)

Race: Nord (Has always played as Nord, both morrowind and oblivion)

Birthsign: Warrior

Attributes: Agilty, Strenght (if warrior, Endurance, strenght.)

Skills: Marksman,Blunt(or rather axe), blade, light armor, armorer, athletics, sneak ( I call this a "Hunter" class)

or

Skills: Blunt(or rather axe), blade, Light armor, athletics, armorer, heavy armor, block. (I call this my "Warrior" class

RP: fight for nord idependance and a nice dude, BEARD of course...

I'm going to carry on a tradition I started during Morrowind- make a nord called Patrick who wears no shoes. I don't know why, it was my little brother's idea

My Argonian character will be

Name:Hides The Bacon
He needs his stealthy Argonian style to hide all that bacon, how do you think he got the name?

Name: Isabeau Draconis
Race: Breton
Sign: The Mage
Class: Witch (custom)

A dual weapons expert
Master of disguise
Powerful Mage

She will reside in a lush forest near a stream with a waterfall, in the south lands just north of Cyrodill in a secluded fortress hidden by trees and mist. She is a collector of ancient artifacts and a lover of elven culture. She is also a very skilled blacksmith and her enchanted armour is known through all of Skyrim.

Khajiit thief named Dar'Randri

Yet-to-be-named nord

Fire in one hand, axe in the other

wears light-medium armor

dodges a lot


has a goatee.

A breton mage with a staff and longsword (remaking gandalf)
wood elf marksman with dual daggers and bow (remaking legolas, which will be awesome because bows do much more damage in skyrim)
Nord or imperial ranger with longsword specialization (remaking aragorn)
And if there is a new dwarf race, stay out of my way cuz im gona lay a path of destruction. Huge lotr fan. And by the way todd howard said he was thinking of lotr while making skyrim wooo!
And of course a nord dragonslayer! gona play the part baby!

btw love how you guys are so into this i would lay out all my info but not sure what im gona choose yet

I think I will be a male Dunmer, A little unusual for Skyrim maybe, but it will work.

Usually I would take the class of a sword mage, but since classes are gone I have to develop my Avatar this way. Born under the sign of the atronach. Fight wil be primarely with melee weapons and a shield. Secondary combat is either with a strong destruction spell or a bow.

A highly sceptical, smack-talkin', fast-shootin' "Ranger". Not sure of race yet.

In fact, I have yet to learn much about the game's workings in general. So, that's all I got for now.


edit: Female.

I imagine I'll play yet another Nord, probably using Swidhelm, (though that's a Saxon name) or maybe Sigurd or something. Born under the Steed, for a boost to speed, either that or the Warrior. Probably be custom class, but geared towards a barbarian--nothing new there, heh. Probably major in either blade or blunt. Block will be in. Hand to hand, etc. I'll play a loner, will help others, and will bring death to vampires and other baddies swiftly.

I will be an assassin/ninja/thief/hunter...that mould.
With finishing moves assassins should be epic,but we'll see.
Thieves guild,i would hope for an assassins guild ( not just evil,not all assassin's are evil or have an evil course )
Maybe even a rangers/hunters guild...who knows.
Hopefully crossbows,throwing spears,throwing knives etc will be in again.
Also i think traps for assassin.
I like other classes,but you cant beat the assassin role:)
Not sure on the name....but i would like to play a good assassin rather than just evil.
He will probably duel wield daggers,short swords,use alchemy,all manner of throwing things ( if in the game ).
Obviously ,agile,fast,intelligent....you know the score.

Fernin Mal Vanche aka Fernin the Vermin

Race: Nord
Birth Sign: The Lady

Skills:
2 handed: Spears?
Marksmen: bows
Alchemy
Armoror
Sneak
Security
-magic skill of some sort, haven't decided. Or 1 handed with a nice pointy dagger

Race: Nord
Class: Scout
Weapon Skills: Marksman , long blades , daggers.
Armor:Light/Medium
other attributes: alteration/illusion , athletics/acrobatics , sneak.

I'm still undecided between playing a Nord or an Orc as my first character. I'm leaning more towards the Nord, as I've played a Nord in every Elder Scrolls game (except Redguard of course) as my main.

For the Nord, I haven't decided on a name yet. Essentially, I'm going to make him old (gray hair, beard) and a drunk. A drunken brawl is how he ended up a prisoner in the first place. I'm going to make this guy like the sauce - at first. We'll see if the story of the main quest can convince him he should give it up. Warrior and fights with great axes and mauls. I'll probably veer away from the swords.

For the orc, his background is probably that he was abandoned in a toddler in the Nordic highlands. The whelp made his way to an orc town and lived a rotten life into advlthood, struggling to survive. He's probably a prisoner because he murdered someone for some petty reason. This orc will be a barbarian/fighter style warrior and will duel wield axes or fight with a polearm (?) - still undecided.

My ideal first character would pretty much be the same one I play in Oblivion. I'm rather set in what I like


A male Bosmer named either 'Anders', 'Samael' or 'Koh'.

Skills all based around stealth and archery.

Joins factions involving stealth, murder, thievery, etc....


Basically a cute elven archer-ninja

If I can't have my oblivion-style character build in Skyrim i'll figure it out later

Name: Emilor
Race: Altmer
Birthsign: The Atnorach
Class: Myasmic (custom) - Block, Marksman, Restorian, Armorer, Light Armor, Sneak, Destruction

I play as a noble all-around player. I prefer to use ranged combat (-marksman,-magic). I usually get 100% spell absorbation, cuz Altmers are weak against magic.

Name: Sigur Drakedrepar (Drakedrepar is old norwegian and roughly translates to Dragonslayer).

Skills: One handed (dual wielding), Light armor (fur/leather/mail), Strength, Agility/acrobatics, Endurance and maybe Two handed for spears. No magic what so ever.
Weapons: Axe/Axe, Axe/Shield, Axe/Short sword, Short sword/Short sword and maybe a spear...
