Face should be E7 because I rolled a random number between 1 and 69 for it. He should have a blonde mullet because how else will he acquire all of the women on Vvardenfell? Yook is a Nord, and needs pesky small arms to stop bothering him like mosquito, so he must wear tank armour into battle, taverns and bed. As a master of combat, he needs portable yet effective solutions to keep his many enemies at bay while he kills them with his axe. The market is unable to supply these at the low, low prices that he needs - because his disposable income goes towards alcohol and prostitutes - so he is forced to be his own armourer. Fortunately, a hammer is an effective weapon for smashing, something of a speciality for Yook. As a child, Yook was teased for his looks, his uncharming personality, his dim wits and his bad luck. Growing up, he found his strengths in his strength and endurance, and set about smashing his childhood tormentors. This being accomplished, he was deported from his homeland by popular request. Learning from criminals arts of security, he sets out on his quest to smash everything on Vvardenfell.

P.S. Magic is for weaklings.

Part 0: Almost There

Face A4 got two votes, E7 got one. We will go with A4.

No hairstyle got more than one vote, though two people voted for longer hair and one person wanted to be bald. I tossed a coin between Goldilocks and Mullet, arriving at Mullet. We shall have a blonde mullet.

Combat specialization was picked. Stealth and Magic both got two votes, though more people said no magic, so we shall have Stealth as our runner-up.

Strength and Endurance are our Favorite Attributes.



We have our hero. Now to continue from where we left off.



This is our build. Combat specialization, strength and endurance as our attributes. Major Skills were decided as so: two combat specialization skills (Axe and Heavy Armor), one skill that fits our favorite attribute strength (Armorer), one magic skill (Restoration) and one stealth skill (Security). Thanks to Restoration, we will start out with a healing spell, Hearth Heal.

Minor Skills: two stealth specialization skills (Sneak and Speechcraft), and... Well, our second favorite attribute was Endurance, but there are only three endurance governing skills and we already have one of them. The rest weren't exactly useful for us (Medium Armor and Spear), so instead I looked at out other suggestions Agility and Willpower. Willpower is like mental endurance, so I took Mysticism. Continuing, one magic skill (Alchemy) and one combat skill (Athletics). We are rather balanced, though we are definitely strong physically. And as all true men, we can brew our own drinks.

Our class is still lacking a name. Please give us a class name, and if you would like, a description for our class. I would appreciate it if it's short. The game doesn't recognize copy pasting, so I am going to have to type it myself.






Yet another decision for us to make. Our birthsign will affect us in many ways and help us as we start out. The choice, as usual, is yours. Please pick us a birthsign.


Birthsigns



The Warrior
The Mage
The Thief
The Serpent
The Lady
The Steed
The Lord
The Apprentice
The Atronach
The Ritual
The Lover
The Shadow
The Tower
Once we get that done, we will get our papers that will allow us to leave this area.





Our class name of course is not permanent in this case.



Now, the door we will have to go through is over there, but I felt like we could end this update with something a bit more fun.



Over to the right, there is this platter. Please note the value.



Comparing it to the second most valuable item on the shelf, it becomes quite apparent that it is worth a lot of money. Worth taking, maybe.



There are so many eyes watching us, but maybe we can just...



Oh. Well, all hope is not lost! If we act before the guard reaches us, we can go to our inventory and drop the item on the floor.







We do not get a bounty in this area. The guard will just tell us not to do it again. But watch what happens when we pick the platter up from the floor.



Can you see it? It's understandable if you don't. Nothing happens. We are allowed to take the platter now and no one will bother us. We now have something worth 650 gold in our inventory. We can sell it later.



There are many books in this game. The room we're in has these history books for optional reading. Enjoy the Brief History of the Empire part 1, part 2, Part 3 and part 4.

We are allowed to read things even if others are watching, but actually taking the books would be stealing.



Only one thing to do now. We'll see what is on the other side of this door next time, where we will finish the tutorial and learn more about our mission.

I vote for the Atronach as sign. It allows for interesting gameplay with strong, short bursts of magic that don't come entirely free. Tuppermancer should be our class, seeing as all these different voices in our head combine to make us do dumb things. We will give Fargoth his ring back, before stealing it from him ourselves, honorably! Afterwards, we shall explore this town to see if any maidens need saving, wink wink.

Give Fargoth that ring for a discount and explore Seyda Neen. Also get the atronach sign to bork the game.

The Lady seems like a sensible birthsign. Give Fargoth the ring, you've already stolen enough items. Who leaves a battleaxe just lying around in the marshes? Someone must have misplaced it. We should explore a bit first, perhaps find some enemies to smash.

Hey. Remember how we have better bodies mod and everything? Here's how Fargoth would look like unmodded.


Sweet dreams.
