» Wed Oct 17, 2012 7:59 pm I created a stealthy agent-type Khajiit named Ra'jhoro, chose the Steed as my birthsign so I didn't have to worry about encumbrance, choose Health as my favored attributes since Khajiit males start with very little health in my mod, then created a custom class with Sneak, Archery, and One-Handed as my major skills and Alchemy, Illusion, and Pickpocket as my minor skills. Then I choose my starting kit (the Agent kit) and braced myself for where I would start the game.
http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=103085323. In the dead of night with a beautiful aurora in front of an old imperial fort. All I started with was a single dagger, a couple potions, five lockpicks and barely any armor. With my (work in progress) permadeath mod activated and at level 1, I should have turned around and trekked to the nearest town, but that wouldn't have been any fun so I decided to proceed into the fort with caution. Upon entering I spotted a woman in a hooded robe with an aura around her. Looked like a tough fight so I tried sneaking past her up the stairs, but before I could get there she spotted me..
She didn't attack, but instead told me how she had been an initiate in a cult. They had wanted her to capture a human for sacrifice and when she refused they turned on her so she defended herself and killed her attacker. Now her mother was upstairs, about to turn herself into a hagraven, and she needed help putting an end to all the vile sorcery ...So naturally I volunteered my services.
Before we began fighting our way up the tower, I noticed locked door. It was a difficult lock and I only had five picks on my person, but perhaps there was some valuable equipment behind that door so I tried my luck. Low and behold there was an enchanted battleaxe and some potions and poisons. My two-handed skill was only at level 5 but I figured it still beat the iron dagger I had.
We cleared floor by floor, the witch in front with her spells and me following cautiously behind with my axe. We made it a good ways up the tower until we reached a locked door that couldn't be picked. The witch requested I clear out the next room and find the key to open the lock while she stood guard. Timidly I went, unsure in my combat skills, but confident in my sneaking ability. There was a hagraven on the floor above who I thought I could sneak past, but boy was I wrong. I must have made some noise because soon her and another witch were searching for me. In my panic I hid against a nook in the wall, trapped. They didn't turn back, they just kept approaching. Fight or flight time. I popped out of the crevice to attack the witch, but not two seconds later I got one-shotted by the hagraven's gigantic fireball. My body flew across the room and hit the opposite wall before falling to the floor, lifeless...
Time to re-roll
