so I am playing a khajiit thief this time. only level 8.

the fight against N and his people in markath was hard. I used all my potions of heal.

after wards, I thought "What would my character do?" I decided that she would look for options to use secondarily in combat. I almost went out and got better armor, but I did not want smithing to level me up, so I thought about illusion. she is ALL ABOUT THE SNEAK. not a murderer at all.

so I was using courage on my follower, and went to an area near riverwood, that ooc I knew was easy and in game, I decided the locals told me there were bandits but not very scary ones.

so I enter cave, use couarge, kill ones near door, leave to rest.

i want to powerlevel illusion. my idea is that I am all fixated on magic now, and so I am practicing with my follower.

so anyway, the 3 thugs come for me!

now, I don't know about you, but they are in the top 5 hardest kills in game. I look at my inventory I have like 3 minor health potions. I can't survive one of these guys. I tried running back to town, and then I saw I had this high level fireball scroll. I whipped it out, used it and BOOM they are all three dead.

I just imagine faendal thinking "damn! she is getting this magic down pat!"

that is cool. how did you not kill faendal as well?

oh. I died once, and before the reload, I had put him off to a distance where I knew he would be able to kite the thugs with hisbow. when I rested.I found a single arrow in the 3 total. so thanks for nuthing, F!

Ah yes, scrolls. I once took out an entire Orc tribe with some uber fire scroll. Seriously. I was all "o_O"
