Your name in Skyrim.

Snorri. Anyone who remembers who that was, here's a cookie :cookie: Plus you'll know what I'll do in my game too. Makes me wonder if they'll bring a place like that back..hmm :touched:
SNORRI THE SLAYER?!

I always make a Nord named Halgar. It's always a new character but I just love the name and it's tradition for me so I change the last name.

1: Halgar
2: Redras Raveneye
3: Vorkgar the Blunt

Possibilities:
1st playthrough? - Erwan Gael, Breton, Battlemage/Nightblade, Atronach Sign
1st or 3rd playthrough? - Severian, Nord, Warrior/Spellscout, Lady/Warrior Sign
2nd playthrough? - Rasha, Dunmer, Ranged Assassin/Thief/Witchhunter, Thief Sign

I am worried Atronach won't work with a Breton. Does the spell absorption kick in enough to give you enough magicka, and is the magicka boost effectively halved by the 50% resistance? I am worrying about not being able to cast enough spells even though I am planning to play as a Nightblade/Battlemage type. Or is it just redundant to try to get to 100% spell absorption when I start the game off with 50% resistance?

A lot will be transplants from other ES Titles Ive played. Shadow-Comes-Inside, my Argonian Witch-doctor from Morrowind and Oblivion. Gozar gro-Galag, my Orc Crusader from Daggerfall and Oblivion, Baron Ilero, my beguiling Imperial Vampire from Morrowind and Oblivion, Hanging Moss, my female Bosmer druid from Oblivion, Celador, my male Bosmer Ranger/Illusionist from Oblivion, Fortunado, my Altmer Necromancer from Oblivion, Gilliam Moorford, my Breton Scholar/Mage from Daggerfall and Oblivion, Master Khanj, Goutfang and Rawlith Khaj Master from Morrowind and Oblivion, Sveld the Trap-Setter, my Nord Hunter/Trapper from Oblivion... and a bunch more too long to list. I usually make around a dozen or so characters/builds in an ES Title.

I usually play a male thief first to get the lay of the land, a female mage second to blast away all people who piss me off, and then a male knight to play the main quest. I change the races up, but the names I keep fairly similar. Gherik, Christine, and El Cid respectively.

Elevorn

Since the Dunedain are blessed with long life he will still be alive from when the gates of Oblivion opened. Ranger type character who is probably going to show some more age than he had before. (As long as the age sliders don't mess up the faces again.)

My character will be called Todd the Howard. He'll be a small breton man who packs a hell of a punch.

typically Kaji, as I play a cat

Or

Number1

Number2 because Number1 fell off a cliff

Number3 because Number2's player just couldn't handle all of the fancy button mashing

Number4 because , well, Number3 tried his player's fast travel dragon shout thingy.....and missed

Number5 because, I put the game on the shelf for a few months wheil the house got a new roof and .....

Well, you get the picture ;)

ALTHOUGH

If I try somethign new (gasp) and go with a Nord, he'd be modled after Hagar the Horrible :)

As always, norse paganism names at the first play through. This time around it will probably be:
Gremnir - Nord Male (word play with one of Oden's aliases)
Sindre - ? Woman (a bit of irony, I think is has a nice female ring to it but it in the norse paganism it is the name of one of the dwarfs that crafts the chain to hold Fenrisulven)
If not Sindre then Skuld (one of the norns, and literary means guilt/debt).

After that I'll probably revert to my regular "ridiculous names of pet cats".
Sir CuddlesWorth or Kaiser von LowlKat are always big contenders.

My name instills fear in all who hear it, and in many regions across the globe, to even utter the name under one's breath is taboo. My name is . . . Jack.

Probably a Breton or Dark Elf named E'el Rolyat or Rolyat E'el. It's just a variation of my name backwards.

My first run is gonna be a Morrowind outlaw Nordic Barbarian named John, great grandson of John the Barbarian.. In Morrowind when Fargoth spoke to Grandpa John he went on a murderous rampage. Of course, John couldn't evade the law forever. The Legion eventually caught up with him and sent him first by carriage, then by boat to the Imperial City prison. Where he spent the rest of his life, fighting daedra etc.. He eventually grew tired of fighting and had the son of a beautiful man-like Nord from Khull (i think). Grandpa John's son was forgotten in Skyrim when Mr. and Ms. John went on their honeymoon there. Baby John was left on the doorstep of Grandpa John's best friend's house (Baby John also had a J-shaped scar on his forehead...idk)

Many years later, Baby John grew up to be Daddy John. Now, in Daddy John's lifetime he literally did nothing except bake bread. His son, John, however, was a lot more adventures that his father, much like his great grandpa, Grandpa John, he set out on adventures that are still yet to be told... dun dun duuuuuun.
