If you were to live in Skyrim what line of work do you think you would be best suited to? Smith maybe or bard? Fisherman? What do you think? On the other hand what line of work would you LIKE to work in? Guard? Inn owner?

Talos Preacher, Drug lord, pimp or sellsword.

I would most likely be some kind of Scribe if I lived in Skyrim.

Healer in a temple. Seems like a decent way to spend the life. Maybe a more freely practicing mage and healer. Maybe a travelling one, though then I'd have to train in some weapon and armor usage, something I wouldn't mind.

Perhaps a blacksmith or an assistant to one.

Thalmor Justicar.

Skooma Dealer.

If not that, then maybe blacksmith.

A bard, most certainly for me. A battle bard.

Intern at the temple of Dibella.

Author..

someone has to write all those books...

My luck... miner or guard. The two jobs with lowest survivability to all but... courier.

I might go hunter or such. If stuck in a city, likely be a bodyguard/housecarl

Win. Can I change mine? LOL

Probably alchemist.

Fletcher and inventor of the first Daedric 'dum-dum' arrowhead

or

Sandwich Shop Owner. Given that everyone in Skyrim seems to gnaw at huge hunks of bread in their spare time.

I would make sandwiches and sell them. My tariff would be written in Charcoal on an array of city shields above my 'shoppe' door held in place by a tasteful montage of dead Draugr Deathlords

Mammoth Snout on Rye

Wolf-in-a-bap

Skeever and pickle baton etc

I would be breaking even the first year and by Yr 3 would have a sandwich cart pulling up outside every mine and guards barracks in Skyrim each day at lunchtime.

I'd more then likely be a smith or a farm hand of some sort. I grew up on a farm and work in the automotive field currently.

Either this or a bard. Should I be worried about all of you who said drug dealer?

Work at a Stable

Stable worker or, if I have magic, healer for animals.

Realistically I would probably be in whatever line of work my father was in, and his father before him. What I would like to do would be a scholar who works in excavating ancient ruins or a sellsword, something to keep me moving and avoid falling into a tedious routine.

One of those weirdo conjurers/necromancers living in a Nordic barrow. Doing questionable stuff.

I would become Farengar.

between that and people who say "I don't like so I'll kill them" or "I don't like so I'll torture them", yes, you may have reason to be worried

Definitely a bard.

Alchemist/healer, I have a background for that. Save up enough to buy my own shop or build it and pay other people to leave town and search out rare ingredients.

Of course if I can change my age to oh around 18 to 25, I wouldn't mind being a priestess of Mara.

I would probably spend my youth as a Vigilant of Stendarr, cleansing the world from the filthy daedra.

And then, since I would be a powerful warrior after a life of fighting against all kinds of abominations, I could spend my days teaching the worthy how to fight and attending an open library for the public. If running low on money, you can always collect some flowers and butterflies to make valuable potions, although I would live a simple life.
