Predator
Race: Argonian (ugly motherhumper). The uglier the better. If he gets laughed at in a show us your character thread, you know you have succeeded.
Description: upon hearing of the return of the dragons, the predator traveled from Black Marsh to Skyrim, in search of a worthy opponent. He will consume the corpse of anyone whom he considered challenging, in an attempt to absorb their power.
Major Skills: Archery, Light Armor, Alchemy, Alteration, Illusion
Minor Skills: Smithing (optional*)
Shout: Aura Whisper until you get detect life in alteration, then whatever you want.
Stone: Shadow until you get invisibility, then Lord.
Gameplay: cast detect life to find your prey. Cast your mage armor, then invisibility (shadow stone or potions until you get the spell), and scout out the area to find the best vantage point and a kiting path. Imbibe an arrow with slowing poison. Kill your hapless prey.
Illusion is really only used for invisibility (level it with clairvoyance), but go ahead and use the other spells if you enjoy that sort of gameplay.
* Optional: as is customary with my characters, I like to use the crappiest weapons, ammo and armor available, then upgrade them a bit with smithing. In this case, a long bow, iron arrows, and hide armor. This makes the game more challenging and fun as it forces you to use everything at your disposal to survive (on master). You will need to use and abuse poisons, so get ready for some heavy duty pickin' and brewin'.
