Places your character(s) has not been yet., just curious Options

[Lady Saga]

The way I tend to game, my characters have different exploring ratios. Some of them like to explore randomly, others tend to go places only if they're told to go there, or only if they've heard things about them.

It's been since Thor a'Zaene (my second character out of a dozen) that I've been to Markath, for instance. I remember that town fondly, but it's been about a year since I've actually been there! I think Thor only went there because he was drugged by that lying idiot in the black cloak, the one who shows up randomly in bars, and asks us to have a drink with him.

My current Crusader spends a lot of time in Falkreath and Whiterun with Riften and Dawnstar running second most-visited. Rorikstead a couple times. He's only been to Winterhold once, to update his spellbook. And (assuming no more quests send him that way) he will probably only go there once or twice more; again, because they have the best spells.

But Lord Haaf-Mersey has never been to Markath, Solitude, Windhelm, Karthwasten, Ivarstead, or Morthal. He plans on going to each of these (when things die perhaps with Dawnguard) because he's got a curiosity with religious places, but otherwise I kinda doubt he would ever visit even these villages & towns.

bla bla bla....what about you all?.

Where have they not been? That’s an interesting question. I had no idea off the top of my head, so I checked my characters who have more than 50 hours.

Duralekh gro-Bulsakh (presently on an extended fishing trip with Erik the Slayer) has no guild affiliations and is not Dragonborn, though he lives in a world with dragons. Most of his questing involves keeping the Rift safe for his lovely wife Sylgja. He has never been to Falkreath or Dawnstar. I was surprised to see that he had been to Winterhold, though the College was not discovered on his map. That must have been during his wandering days before he met Sylgja. Back then he would often accept favor quests in the hope of getting laid.

Denelle has never been to Falkreath or Morthal. She does work for the CoW, so she has been into some places that would otherwise not tempt her. Most of her contract work comes from the Jarl in her home city of Markarth, so the Reach is pretty well covered in her game.

Jerric has never been to Falkreath. He and Darnand (Marcurio) are on vacation, so they go wherever they feel like going. Jerric likes big sky country. It does not surprise me that he stays out of the forest.

My big surprise was Rowan Varrus, my first character. She has never been to Falkreath in 193 hours of play. (Frankly I’m also surprised that she has survived all of the updates, since she lives on the PS3.)

My Imperial characters have all visited Solitude if only to see the center of Imperial culture in Skyrim. Rowan made her home there, and DovahKen would have retired there if he had not been taken out by an update.

All my characters so far have merely watched the execution, but have not gotten directly involved. I know LHM will get involved OTOH, I'm just not sure how, yet.

That was a big moment for my Nord barbarian Jensa. She remembered how it felt to have her neck on the block and the scene she made trying to kick her way free. She walked to the front so that Roggvir would have someone to look at in the crowd who wasn’t weeping or yelling at him.
