aint that right? I was strolling around a mountain when I saw a rich bastard being escorted by his fancy bodyguard. I tought "hey it'd be fun to use my fus-ro-dah shout to trow both of them of the very tall cliff, so I did it, and then as they both fell, I accidentally pressed the C key (auto-run key) which trew me off the cliff along with them........

I just saw a moment in the game that brought a tear to my eyes ='(
As you all know, you eventually get shadowmere while doing the dark brotherhood questchain. She's the strongest horse in the game, has more health than any other horse and regens it so fast the only way for her to die is either a very long vertical drop, or overwhelming enemy force attacking her (Like 10 enemies at once)
She also apeared in Oblivion.
Then there's the Spectral Assassin who you get the privilege of summoning once per day to aid you in battle, and this Spectral badass is none other than Lucien Lachance, (voiced by his same voice-actor to boot).
Guess what happens when you summon Lucien while standing near Shadowmere?
He aproaches her, and in a very soft voice says "Shadowmere...... my old and dear friend....... its been so long since we've rode to battle together."
='( do recall that on oblivion, Shadowmere was Lucien's horse before he gave it to the player, and he dies before they can be reunited. Now, 200 years later, not even death can keep these 2 apart T_T
really brought a tear to my eyes to see them reunite after so long.

Drelos killed me over and over when I broke into his house at like level 3, I went back 10 levels later.
Payback
, as Drelos has learned, is truly a &*!@#.

Wow... while fighting a Draugr in an archer duel, we managed an impossible feat. Our arrows hit each other mid-flight, and just stopped and fell to the ground. Dwarven and Ancient Nordic arrows lying right next to each other.
that's amazing, I wonder if in real life that's happened with bullets? (Unlikely, and they'd likely shatter each other beyond recognition) but it would had been awesome.
You watch too little Mythbusters, my friend! Yes, the bullets just shatter beyond recognition. And it was terribly hard to pull off as an experiment.

I could have sword they fused together and shot off in a random direction.

That is what they were trying to achieve, the bullets fusing into a single piece, stopping, and falling to the ground. Or at the very least fusing. I may not remember the episode perfectly, but I think they did not get them to do that.
Anyway back to Skyrim:
I completed the main quest with my Thief yesterday, and it was EPIC. I love how I could tell the gate keeper like "I am the Dragonborn and i want to enter by the right of whatever." and then "I am a Nightingale and I wish to enter cause I want to plunder this place." lol. Dialogues options are obviously not completely accurate. I picked the Nightingale option obviously! So, after finishing the game with my dear lvl 50 thief girl, I kind of laid her to rest and made a save that will probably just sit there forever. Eyes open, and walk with the shadows.
I proceeded to make a new character, a Dunmer this time! Once again I managed to make her... well, not too ugly. It is hard to make a pretty elf, their foreheads look like Clannfears... So I went mage, as I said I would.
Once I dinged lvl 3 and learned to dual cast destro spells, I became pretty powerful lol. And the bear in the first dungeon in the game? Gave me trouble when I wanted to kill him with my thief chick. I just roasted him now. As I was climbing up to Bleak Falls Barrow I had to flip the difficulty to Master, cause the combat was kinda underwhelming. That's about as far as I got though, it was 3 am. :/ Looking forward to coming home and Maging it up some more.

you're almost folowing my footsteps bro'
I also made a thief (Nord) the first time, and after completing the main campaing, I just had to make a new toon.
my new toon is a mage (Female Orc) and as you can see they are OP as hell. Wait till you level conjuration and get access to the Storm Thrall. Its even grossly OP if you get the master Restoration Spell "Circle of Protection" since that thing:
A: Repells any undead that gets in it (Casts a 20 sec fear on all of them)
B: Replenishes your health, mana and stamina for you and your followers as long as you are inside it.
C: Reduces damage taken while inside.
That is so unfair. I took a full head on ancient dragon fire blast to the face and barely touched me. That Circle of Protection has no cooldown and its very cheap (About 40 mana but even if it costed 300 mana, it replenishes your entire mana when casted, constantly O_o)
Even on skyrim mages are op :S

As a Dunmer, I believe I will take that Fire Blast into the face with great ease. :)
TBH I am not interested in Conjuration at all. I want to roll high Destro/Alter/Resto and Enchanting/Alchemy with a really minor specialisation in Speech.
So far I only really need to fry someone with my Flamethrower for like 3 seconds and they are done. What I also love a lot is that I can just jump around and wait like a second so that a tiny bit of my magicka replenishes and then torch the enemy again. The fire does a lot of front load damage, but the DoT is super powerful too.

Quick gripe, doin the Thieves Guild quests and Karliah has blue eyes. Dark Elves are all supposed to have red eyes after being cursed by Azura. Yes Im a lore wh0re but w/e
Post by

Karliah is special in more ways than just that. (I love her voice acting too.)
There are actually quite a few characters whose voices I really like. Ulfric, Karliah, Sheogorath, Brynjolf, the court wizard of the Jarl of Whiterun.

dont forget Feldir the old, one of the 3 legendary skyrim heroes who defeated alduin the first time.
That dude feldir is voiced by none other than the same actor who voices Colonel Roy Campbell on Metal Gear Solid (With the exact same voice too)
I was like....... O_o so Campbell's great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandfather was a viking legendary hero who kicked the ass of the son of a God......... Gee, no wonder he's such a badass.
Also, have I mentioned how much I love babette? =D I wish I could recruit her as a follower..... but then that'd be completely game-breaking since as a child she can't be harmed in any way =/
I could use the console command "addfac 58f633" after targeting her on the console, and that would add her to the list of recruitable followers, but I dunno, I'm kinda scared it may corrupt my savefile or cause some bug.

Imma be honest Im a bit underwhelmed by Babette. I mean it was such an awesome concept, a little vampire girl? And she had a pretty great voice actor. But they never did anything with her character. You dont get any quests from her, you dont get much dialauge with her either.
Nah Babettes cool for the little we see of her, but Scicero is my man!
