The "Older Games" Character Creation Thread Options

[Renee]

Uh.. dude-mar is being pushed aside. Can't think of anything for him to do. THIS character idea below is what's gripping my soul at the moment...


GAME (Platform): Morrowind (PC)

Name: Ana Khannda

Status: Deadly

Dead-is-Dead?:

Race: Dark Elf

Gender: Vixen

Age: Young adult.

Sign:

Alignment: Chaotic Neutral with Evil tendencies.

Home: Somewhere in Vivec

Home Country: Vvardenfull

Faction and Rank or Guilds (if none, tell us what they do for a living):

Faction Description:

Class:

Class Description:

Major Skills:

Minor Skills:

Tabletop Skills:

Magic abilities or powers:

Physical Appearance: What is it, Sera?

Eyes: red and beady.

Build:

Weapons of preference:

Clothing:

Miscellaneous: Ana Khanda was my first character in Elder Scrolls Online. She was really sort of weird and antisocial. Despite this, she was also really fun to play! Other gamers who met her did not always know what to make of her in ESO.

So this is merely the same idea, except she'll be in TES III instead.

Mental Profile/Personality:

Biography/Life History:

Welcome Snake Lady!

[macole]

A dark elf, huh? Read the name and thought Argonian for sure.

[Renee]

Snake Lady, ha! Ana likes this nickname.

Argonian makes sense, but I have no idea how to roleplay either of the beastfolk properly!

Well one of my habits with Morrowind on PC is I had three characters going at once: Miss Terri, Igodah Go^Pei, and Sir Galarad. I would switch from one character to the next every time I played. So I'm going to do the same with Morrowind, and here's my second toon er character for this game on PC.



GAME (Platform): Morrowind (PC)

Name: Hera Ticch

Status: Here and there

Dead-is-Dead?:

Race: Breton

Gender: Seldultress

Age: Young adult.

Sign: The Atronach / Aries

Alignment: Evil

Home: None. Back in Cyrodiil she had one though.

Home Country: Cyrodiil

Faction and Rank or Guilds (if none, tell us what they do for a living):

Faction Description:

Class: Sorcerer

Class Description: Though spellcasters by vocation, sorcerers rely most on summonings and enchantments. They are greedy for magic scrolls, rings, armor, and weapons, and commanding undead and Daedric servants gratifies their egos.

Class Specialization: Magic

Major Skills: Alteration, Conjuration, Enchant, Destruction, Mysticism

Minor Skills: Heavy Armor, Illusion, Marksman, Medium Armor, Short Blade

Tabletop Skills: Cooking, Literacy

Magic abilities or powers: Bound Dagger, Fire Bite, Shield, Summon Ancestral Ghost, Water Walking

Physical Appearance: What do you want?

Eyes: pretty sure they're brown.

Build: Feminine

Weapons of preference: Daggars & short blades

Clothing:

Miscellaneous: Hera shall be my first born under The Atronach, which should be a challenge for me.

Mental Profile/Personality: She seems angry. Lost. Doesn't know why she's been sent to this strange land.

Biography/Life History: Hera Ticch lives up to her name, of course. She's got some sort of a heretical background. Maybe she was thrown out of her place of worship back in Cyrodiil. We shall see over time.

Wow, an Atronach in Morrowind. I imagine that will be really challenging.

I found Hera's theme music

Nice. I've always loved Soundgarden, yet I haven't heard this song.

I actually freaked out about the Atronach thing. Magicka does not refill, even after sleeping! Should I reroll her stats? But then I realized it's not so bad. Hera can summon a ghost, attack it for awhile, and when the ghost hits her with one of its spells, voila, most of her Magicka gets filled back up. This is actually a better solution than the way Igodah had to roll, which was... she had to pretty much find a bed, or somewhere safe to rest if she was outside (and then hope her sleep didn't get interrupted). Magicka Potions are near-impossible to find or buy, and even as an Alchemist it was awhile before Igodah got good enough to make dozens of these potions.

I barely recognize this song as Soundgarden! Wow it's pretty deep. I still don't get why he had to kill himself.

That song is on the Pump Up The Volume soundtrack, which is how I know it. Back in the day I used to listen to that soundtrack a lot.

I have never had the nerve to play an Atronach in Morrowind or Oblivion. I only gave it a try in Skyrim, where it just means your magicka refills more slowly, and can be countered with enchantments that increase your magicka regeneration.
