Let's Talk About Characters Options

[Grits]

Ever since I saw the first character gen video I've had my heart set on a pot-bellied Argonian mage with blue feathers called He-Knows. Or maybe Picks-His-Nose. Either way he will have narrow shoulders, ample thighs, and a mead gut. I haven't read enough about classes and whatnot to predict anything else.

What are your ideas? What characters have you already made?

hazmick, it must be just magical to visit the site of Haa Rei’s hatching after all of these years imagining it. Thanks for those crafting stats. Jerric has played around a little and made himself a non-horned Breton helmet which is as good as what he finds, but the other armor he can make is much lower. It’s great to know that with some dedication, crafting is worth it.


Jerric is spending a lot of time on battlefields lately. He’s getting pretty handy with the combat healing. I think he’s going to use his carefully hoarded skill point to get Healing Ritual. It’s tough to tell if he should morph Rushed Ceremony into Breath of Life instead, though. Thus the hoarding. He is really in his element when stuff starts blowing up all over the place. He gets focused and methodical out of nowhere but still reacts quickly when unexpected things occur. He’s always called himself a battlefield healer but until now has never been able to shine in that capacity in the actual games. Magicka is still his least available resource, so he has to use it well. Originally I didn’t think he’d do much with the Templar’s Restoring Light skill tree. It’s been a lot of fun.

In his travels he found a spot where different people were summoning some big fiery daedric creature and subsequently getting killed by it. So he stood by to heal them, since he wasn’t sure of the implications if he pitched in to directly help with the fight. One Bosmer took three of his healings to get through her battle, but in the end she prevailed.

Lots of things have been setting him on fire. He’s having fun battling clannfear at melee range, but he does not ever want to close with a scamp. Or see another one, really. Nasty little firebugs. Maybe there’s something to those armor enchantments after all. Next town he finds, he’s going to see about some anti-fire glyphs.

Jerric loves the Argonians. He has not yet met a mean one, and he trusts their wisdom (especially the women). Their sayings make him grin. One guy fondly called him “moist one.” Saxhleel love.


General question, do you think we could use a “Today In” thread, or should we just use this one for both character builds and updates? At this point they kind of blend together for me, but I’m probably talking more about Jerric and less about things that will be useful to other players down the road.
