Well I've decided to start Skyrim again from the beginning - the fact my character wasn't quite right bugged me far too much. However now I am faced with a new choice;

Should I play as;
A) Conan (and likeness thereof)
Leonidas (and likeness thereof)
or
C) One Eye (i.e. Mads Mikkelson from Valhalla Rising)

also as an addon question - does anyone know the settings to make your character look like One Eye?

Cheers

That should be your own choice. Go for who ever would look best.

Why not Mel Gibson from Braveheart?

But seriously, that choice is up to you.

I would personally go as king Edward Longshanks, but since he's not on your list, Conan

lol aw hell, I can't make this choice lol - I love conan - but I guess I'll make the character more my own by having the likeness of Leonidas but putting my own spin on it.

Make sure you deck him out with imperial armor and give him the closed imperial hoplite helm.

Conan - muscle boy simpleton from chilly region, best choice
Leonidas - traitor and weakling who got what he deserved
One Eye - pathetic image of a warrior who got mauled for the sake of boy

unlike others I say: your gameplay is my decision: go for Conan
