What Should Saya Wear? Options

[SubRosa]

I have been thinking about playing Saya in Skyrim ever since I saw the Winged Twilights mod, which would allow her to summon Kireteki. I have been fiddling around with Saya today, and think I have her face right. Now I am looking at outfits.

ESO Altmer Armor

SPOA Silver Knight Armor

Ordinator Armor

Eisen Platte Black

The ESO Altmer is my least favorite. It is just too skimpy and thin. Saya is a battlemage. She likes to get up close and crush skulls with her mace. So she like her armor to be armor.

Screen captures do not do the SPOA armor justice. You have to actually see it in the game to appreciate how it shines and reflects your surroundings. This is my second favorite so far.

The Ordinator is my favorite. It is Morrowind-specific, and really works for a Dark Elf. Plus I have never had a character who has used it yet.

The Eisen Platte in black is perfect for her. But I have had so many other characters wear it that I'd rather not go there again.

I have not played Skyrim or looked at the mods for it lately. Are there any interesting new armor mods? Something Dunmer/Morrowind themed would be ideal.

I spent the afternoon tweaking the Winged Twilight mod more. I did make Kireteki level with the player, with a minimum level of 8 and a max of 80 (I have never had a character get that high). I gave her the starting shock, healing, and a mid-level vampire drain. I also created a Potent Twilight Race, with higher stats, and used that to create a Potent Kireteki that is summoned with the Elemental Potency perk. She also has higher level versions of the same spells. I decided not to go with weapons, but instead increased the Twilight race's unarmed damage.

I also did some final tweaks on Saya - adding modded spells like night eye, open locks, etc... I also worked a bit on her face, since her cheeks looked a little hollow to me. While I was at it, I decided to visit the hair salon...

If Saya was a movie star

Help me Obi-Wan...

I came so close to making this one permanent

Punk Saya

Another movie star look

If Saya went native

But I will be sticking with her side-parted bob, at least for now

Now I just need to decided where to start her out. Saya was last seen in Cyrodiil. But that was back in the 3rd Era. Her Ordinator armor points to a visit to Morrowind. So she might start at the Morrowind-Skyrim border, either on the road east of Windhelm, or the one east of Riften. I am toying with starting her on Solstheim. But I think the monsters there are scaled up higher than normal, which would make it a bad place for a 1st level character.

This is my favorite hair - the one she had before the wig-athon, lol. I'd have to see something a lot better than this to switch my opinion; and none of the other wigs quite made it; though the one sided one you liked came close (and I technically liked the tribal one too, but maybe not on Saya, lol)

I didn't realize Solstheim was so tough! I did go ahead and buy the DLC, but haven't actually played it yet.
