i'm thinking of creating a new character, my current character is a lvl 55 nord with all round capabilities, and i was wondering if anyone could recommend some unique styles/ different races that i could try out and have more fun with!! btw this is my first TES game so i'm still a bit of a new player! haha!!!

Try some kind of a monk character. I mean your primary weapon should be unarmed and in critical situations(Dragons, high-hp bosses and etc) shouts or Conjured magic(summoning Daedra Lord or weapons).

I've been playing a stealthy Wood Elf, mainly using a bow or double daggers. Fun as hell bro.

ok yeah that sounds alright i might create a character like that!! what perks do you use?? what armour should i have + difficulty??

I'm doing a class I like to call the "Warden".

Works with mainly any race, but I like breton because of the absord magicka ability. It makes mage bosses (ie dragon priests) a lot easier.
Main skills are One handed, archery, restoration, and light armor. Also through in blacksmithing if you like it.

Its really fun. I use bows for range and Healing spell/sword for melee. Its a little bit of everything, but it never gets boring.

so sort of like a mage?? what else should i have??

You could always try a Cleric build, holy mace, heavy armour, turn undead / heal spells.

Kinda. You should focus on increasing Magicka mostly but also raise Health so you wont get one-hit-killed, in short keep it in 6:4 ratio. As for the skills your primary objective is Conjuration. Restoration shouldn't bother because you need to heal a lot, obviously. Also Smithing and Enchanting should help on your journey. I also forgot about Heavy Armour, put some attention to it too.

But I think there's a prize for all of this, you're risking being weak while having a high level character so be careful on what you do.

I just started a new character. She only uses Bound Sword and Bow (haven't got the bow yet) and using cloth, no amor. My armor will come from Alteration spells. I of course plan to be taking advantage of Alchemy and Enchanting to pull this off in Master difficulty. I'm trying to make this a mage/assassin type character. Not sure if this is something you'd like to try.

ohh yeah sounds heaps fun!!! i'll most likely do something similar to that!! thanks heaps for the idea!!!

i'm sort of looking for a character to create in which i can only use a certain weapon/armour and who goes with say light armour! can anyone suggest a race etc!!

I just posted this in another thread. Hope the links will help.
