Class: Miner

Post » Thu Aug 30, 2012 10:49 pm

Hello guys, i am going to start a new char, that's a miner.
This are the rules:

-Go from mine to mine, (Probably the first mine you will see if you don't use the the mod Alternate Life is the Embershard mine)
-Wear miner clothes.
-Always wear a pickaxe with you.
-You may have one sword with you, nothing higher than an iron sword.
-You don't like fights, if it's too dangerous for you, runaway.
-You can play whatever race you want, i prefer the orc, because of the strongholds with the good mines.

Your main skills:

-Smithing
-Speech
-One-Handed


It is quite simple, but it is fun!
I was bored of all my other characters, so yeah, there ya go.
Hope you guys like it, and if you guys already know it, nice.

EDIT:
I forgot that there are lots of bandits in mines. So, you may craft whatever weapon you like. But it has to be a One Handed Sword.

I like the premise. "I'm not a 'Dragonborn', I'm just a worker, man!"

My only concern is that a lot of the better mines are held by hostile bandits and whatnot. While there's *plenty* of overland veins to pick away at, you'd need to bust skulls more often than an Iron Sword can muster.

It'd be fun, but I think you'll find yourself very limited and may have to switch it up a bit.

A real miner wouldn't be fighting bandits in Embershard Mine and others, he's no time for such nonsense. He'd only mine his ore in safe mines. There's an ebony ore in the Orc stronghold near Windhelm that can net you a few thousand gold each time, with absolutely no enemies at all to clear out. There's two mines in Dawnstar that are safe and an iron mine outside of Markarth.

Important information for such a purpose is that ore veins respawn after 30 days.

How about a miner "paladin" of sorts, knowing he's going in first, bandits or not, and that will make it minable for all miners of Skyrim?
