Samurai Character, any ideas Options

[sins_to_dark]

I had an idea of making a a charctor based on a samurai, but im a bit stuck on deciding the race and skills,

All i can think of at the moment is blade, block, maybe marksman, and heavy armour but no other ideas on the rest of the major skills and the race of the charctor any ideas would be appriciated

Thanks in advance

Wouldn't horseman count heavily in importance in a samurai life too? I don't know how you'd incorporate horsemanship ... maybe agility, atheleticsm, strength, etc. You could have special spells or abilities like calm creature, command creature ... sort of a sympatico with your horse the way Bosmers have with forest animals.

I think dual wield mod would be important to you also because of katana/dai katana. Are you making special samurai armor? Heavy armor is good I think for them.

I would make a custom Race called Akivari for Samurai's but I would choose the Dunmer pretty much with some minor tweaks ... since they are good at both sword and bow and have fire resistance. (Samurai fight dragons, eh?)

If you are going to have a pet, don't know if Samurai's had pets ... but if you are I'd suggest the Cougar of the Cheydinhal Petshop mod. It is the only one with Sneak and goes Invisible. It follows you like lightning. It is the strongest pet after the bear and eats ratmeat so it is easier to feed than the bear who eats berries.
