He is essentially a dual wielding mage-warrior, an expert in using blades/axes in both hands as well as his fists and also a bow though he will mostly be using bound weapons and destruction magic because as an Altmer it would be sacrilege not to. I didn't bother with two handed and block, although I would have liked to, but I needed the perks elsewhere, plus most of the most interesting weapons and unique storyline related items seem to be either one handed or bows. I gave him some skills in both armor types though and the Fists of Steel perk to emulate his hand to hand skill. This seemed like a cool thing to do as I've never tried combat with fists only on any playthrough and his size makes it look realistic.
I always give my characters all the same skills in smithing, enchanting and alchemy as I have done here in case I ever get bored and want to create uber weapons/armor.
As for the magic I wanted to get across the fact that he is more or less immune to it so I've spent enough perks to get all the magic resistance and antronach perks in the alteration tree. I've got him to mystic binding in the conjuration tree for the bound weapon power, he isn't a summoner so that's all I thought was required. For destruction I just put him at expert level and invested in dual cast and the general perks which increase damage for the different magic types. The other perks which require enemies health to be low seem like more luxury than necessity to me.
For restoration I only spent perks on recovery, regenration and respite to keep his magicka, health and stamina up.
One question I have is - I eventually want him to start using Thalmor as thralls so I was wondering do I need to invest any more perks elsewhere to ensure I can thrall high level npcs?
Here's how he looks close up (poor picture sorry):-

and here's the gear I will usually have him wearing (shirtless fur armor with elven/daedric/thalmor matching boots and gloves, sometimes with an adept mage hood or not):-

His ratio at level 81 will be (Altmer magic bonus included) - Magicka: 450, Health: 400, Stamina: 300 and here's the build itself:-

What does everyone think of this build? Should I move any perks elsewhere? Have I wasted any? Any suggestions are appreciated
