A Whole Lot of Questions...

Post » Tue Sep 25, 2012 11:28 am

Some rules to follow:

1. Stay on topic. Let's not turn this into a conversation. We lost the very funny Skyrim Jokes topic that way. Just cut and paste the following into your reply, then give your answers. I will wait on mine, to avoid double-posting.
2. BRIEF explanations of choices are OK, except in Question II-1. Just answer "Empire" or "Stormcloak". We have plenty of places where you can elaborate.
3. If the answers are different for different characters, pick your current or favorite character. Or say Undecided.

The third category is full of rather silly questions. Be warned. OK, here we go...


I. PERSONAL

13. Who/what won't you kill, no matter what?
14. You can carry ONLY ONE enchanted item (ring, armor, weapon), and it must be a stock item (not one you enchanted yourself). Which do you choose?
15. Which Race Power do you think is the best? The worst?
16. What animal would you like for a pet (any animal, dangerous or not)?
17. What's your favorite book in the game?

II. PEOPLE AND FACTIONS

4. Nords or Forsworn?
5. Who would you marry (any advlt character)?
6. Which child would you adopt (choose only one)?

8. Who is the creepiest character in Skyrim?
9. Your choice for High King/Queen of Skyrim?
10. Do you think Ulfric is a hero? Or power-grabber?
11. Blades restored: what three-follower combination would you go with?


III. JUST FOR FUN

1. What marriage combination of races strikes you as the creepiest?
2. What's the weirdest race/class combination?
3. Would you rather French kiss an Orc, a Khajiit, or an Agronian?
4. Would you rather have that Dunmer apprentice turn you (permanantly) into a cow, a dog, or a horse?
5. Would you rather sleep in a barracks full of unwashed, belching, flatulating Nords? Or a camp full of hairy, scratching, flea-bitten Khajiit?
6. Would you rather give Nazeem a hard wedgie? Or shove a pie in Maven Black-briar's face (choose ONLY one)?
7. Would you rather have Koyd or Braith living with you for a full week? You have to feed, shelter, and protect them. And no, you can't harm them in any way.
8. You can never go to one of the five major cities again. Ever. Which do you choose?
9. Which of the nine holds would you eliminate from the game?
10. For those who like the menfolk*: Would you rather French-kiss Ulfric or Balgruuf?
11. For those who like the ladies*: Same question, Jarl Ravencrone or Maven Black-briar?

I. PERSONAL

1. Mehrunes Razor. Wuuthrad. Zephyr.
2. Conjuration
3. Lightning
4. I don't really bother with the 20% cooler perks. What a waste, especially since smithing/alchemy/enchanting can replicate the effects much better. Lockpicking because I dont pick locks.
5. Speech. Always got to have dat speech.
6. Vampire, since Werepyre isn't an option :sadvaultboy:
7. Archmage.
8. Enchanting.
9. Again...conjuration.
10 All weapons governed by the Spear skill.
11. Animals. Their dying screams amuse me. Nords too, because they are ignorant. Their ignorance turns to fear right quick.
12. Anyone with meaningful dialogue. Sadly there's virtually nobody with such a thing so...
13. Paarthurnax.
14. Armor.
15. I think the Breton and Orc racials are the best, and the Wood Elf racial to be the worst.
16. a Guar.
17. I know it's not from this game, but I'll say it anyways:The Axeman.
18. Werebears, scribs and guars.
19. Preferably none, but if I had a choice, Morrowind. I want the newer provinces to be fresh.


II. PEOPLE AND FACTIONS

1. Empire.
2. Thalmor.
3. Companions.
4. Forsworn.(The Forsworn threat is manufactured by the Nords anyway)
5. advlt character? This question just got harder :( Haha just kidding I'll go with that one female Khajiit merchant who I found, I forget her name >_>
6. Aventus Aretino
7. Delphine.
8. No one is really creepy to me
9. Elisif the Fair
10. Misguided and manipulated hero.
11. J'Zargo,Marcurio and Farkas


III. JUST FOR FUN

1. None. They are all at the same mental capacity so it doesn't bother me.
2. A Redguard Skooma addict who only uses unarmed. :cool:
3. Argonian, for sure. :blush:
4. Horse!!
5. Khajiit.
6. Shove that pie in Maven's face. It would totally be worth having assassins sent after you!
7. . Braith.
8. Markarth.
9. The Pale.
10. Ulfric. He's soooo passionate! I'm sure he'd be just as passionate making love too! :blush: :blush: :blush:
11. Maven. Raven is just an old...crone.
12. I would sell spells and enchantments
13. The teens, for sure!

Pregnancy was a pain in those times with that level of technology and science. Infant mortality and even death of the mother in childbirth was very high then compared to now.
