I'll play a Nord, barbarian and thief, I'll make sure to flesh out one handed, two handed and sneak more than most skills, no magic.

Just think Conan.

would an Argonian werewolf look like a normal werewolf? Cuz, I'm thinking if one turned, that it would probably look more lizard/reptile like.

Dunmer, jack of all trades, werebear (other).

Altmer and bosmer are high elves and wood elves in the poll, and dunmer is not dark elf?! :bonk:

Well, it is a bit early, but I have started to formulate a "rough sketch" character type. As it is early, some of my concepts may change as we find out more about the game.

Generally speaking, in early concept, my character, a female, will be a nordic shaman type. It is likely that she will be Breton, culturally influenced by the Nords since early childhood.

Emphasis will be on magic, but she will use a variety of weapons, as she is a survivor.

Weapon use will especially include daggers, for the preparation and gathering of herbs, and archery, for hunting. Due to the culture in which she was raised, axes would be appropriate, and depending on circumstances, a light shield may be used. She will probably not, however, be role-played as a full fledged shield maiden. If alchemy devices are available, they will be used.

She may possibly use very light armor, depending on what is available in the game.

This http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V%C3%B6lva#Viking_society describes the "flavor" for her in-game character type.

Note: The following image is a beautiful piece of art by Luis Royo. I will try to make my in-game character as much like the image as is reasonable with the character creation tools we will be given.

CAUTION: It contains no nudity, but, discretion is advised, depending on who is looking.

Why did you use the Mer name for Dunmer, yet use the westernized names for Bosmer and Altmer? Wood Elf, and High Elf, respectively. :confused:

Anyway, my first character will be a Dunmer, stealth/magic, and I will hunt werewolves/vampires instead of becoming one. Second character will be a Orc, sword and board type guy.

As for what I'm doing to pass the time? Looking for a job, playing other games, checking the forums, listening to podcasts, going to RoosterTeeth all time, watching Mythbusters, reading books... Pretty much what I do all the time.

My first will be a nord, specifically the continuation of my Daggerfall character, Wulfrik the Bloody. Back in his day, he was the terror of Wayrest; sacking cities, temples, and towns alike. Skyrim will be his glorious return, or eternal fall should he succeed or fail Khorne's will!

As for a second, either an argonian or nord, depending on which looks cooler and roles I want to fulfill.

Argonian, if there was an option of stealth/melee/archery i would've chosen that but i just chose melee/stealth, and vampire.

Myself, I'll be duel wielding magic until I run out of mana or they get too close, then I'll switch to duel longswords. Vampire Breton.

Argonian focusing on Stealth/Archery. I never tried that combo in Oblivion, since archery and stealth were poorly done, but I'll give it a try in Skyrim.


I would say that Oblivion did stealth and archery really good, never played a sneaky character in MW. But I did try it in OB and didn't have a problem at all with it, I thought it was sell done and fun.

I chose Altmer and pure mage, maybe I will use a armor skill with that, don't know yet.
I won't willingly become a vampire or werewolf...

Nord dual wielding warrior, with the Werewolf curse in his blood, if it′s worth a damn unlike vampires in Oblivion

Otherwise I skip that and be "normal"

How can you know it was poorly done without trying it out yourself? :huh:

Until we know every little snippet I'll go for this..

Khajiit... hopefully one of the other sub species ( Ohmes Raht ) if included.

Jack'o trades, but specialising in tricks, speech, jokes and grafts.

Other... A cowardly lion in need of courage.
