Today In Tamriel, ESO Character Updates and Stories Options

[Grits]

Here's a place where you can post your character's adventures in whatever manner you see fit, from the briefest location report to in-character journals and stories. I'll start with a very short update.


Jerric is headed from Bal Foyen all the way back up to Bleakrock Village to check on the villagers and Captain Rana. Unusually for him he is not sure how to get there, other than north. (He blames the ash.)

During the last attack Jerric chose to defend the civilians in the hope that Captain Rana and her group could hold the docks long enough without him. It seems that they did because his position was not overrun from that direction during the fight, but he has a bad feeling just the same. By now they should have returned home. He just needs to see it before he can move on.

My latest character is also on Khenarthi’s Roost, listening to a Khajiit playing the lute and watching the Khajiit women dancing in front of him. I was testing out an Imperial character and was stunned to see how badly they dance, now I won't let her dance in public. When I make my final character, it will most def be a Nord; although not for their dancing. So far the Altmer have it going on best with the dancing.

What I've been doing is having Bubba craft whatever the girls need, and just stick it in the bank for them to take. He has also been socking gold into the bank for them to buy backpacks and feed their horses with. That way the girls can concentrate their skill points on defense.

I have also got a character in every province, just testing each out to see which I like best to make one character to play the game with (and now have tested out all four Classes and settled on Nightblade as my favorite; Templar as my second favorite).

It is really hard to pick one Alliance over the other. Ebonheart has all those crafting supplies; good quests, and a huge exploration area. So far it has remained my favorite - but I am just now beginning to explore the Aldmeri area.

One thing I love about the Aldmeri area is also one of the things I dislike about it = there is an anchor mooring right behind the main building in the first town you arrive at. Well, it is being triggered constantly, so it is very noisy there.

But that said, when it opens there are numerous people there to help you with it! So I have gotten my courage up and ventured out with my level 6 character numerous times and so far 6 times I have gained the chest at the end plus the great loot from any of the huge Daedric enemies that came out of the gate that I managed to kill.

So it has kept me loaded up in armor and weapons to wear/research/deconstruct; so actually she has been able to buy her own backpack and feed her own horse without having to resort to stealing or borrow from Bubba. I haven't seen the whole area yet, but liked what I've seen so far other than the lack of crafting supplies.

Daggerfall's quests are more fun but there aren't hardly any side or misc quests; and any that are there seem to tie into the main quest - and it storms there constantly. I live in an area that storms constantly, so my fantasy game is not going to be lightning and thunder claps around me in game all the time.

Daggerfall was relatively small too, or had less Skyshards - all I know is that in no time at all I had the Skyshard Hunter and Pathfinder achievements for it - with a very low level character, too.

I still don't have either achievement for the Ebonheart or Aldmeri mainlands; and I had help in Ebonheart to reach them, lol.

One of them in the Aldmeri is a level 15 dungeon that I'll most def need a higher level character to reach (or sneak in behind a group who is cleaning house for me).

Once I get the shard, it doesn't matter if the enemies kill me because you can choose to resurrect at the Wayshrine and it puts you at the door to the dungeon - convenient for leaving the place, lol.


** Oh, I have run across a few familiar Oblivion Altmer in the Aldmeri! That was very cool, to kind of see them at a different time in their lives!
