What Are Your Character(s) Doing?

Post » Tue Jun 12, 2012 4:32 am

Hello all,

Well I've created quite a few characters on Skyrim since launch and I believe only two or three of them have actually triggered the dragons and completed the Main Quest storyline. As for the other characters I've created, I literally role-play with them creating that unique character I can just put myself in their shoes and just indulge myself into their own world for an hour or two. I really enjoy it, it's a fun little treat to do. Of course this doesn't appeal to everyone so if you really detest immersing yourself into a game like this, please don't comment at all since that could most likely turn into some silly argument and get the thread blocked. Also since this is in the general discussion section; we'll have to avoid telling spoilers and such!

Now with all of my role-play characters apart from the one I designed to become a Dragon Slayer for hire, I do not trigger dragons at all for that particular character's world because I wish for them to be normal mortals and pretend they are not Dragonborn. I'll start with my character I'm enthralled in at the moment:

Aedarius

This guy is a Bosmer Archer who wears full fur armour (the variant that covers the entire body apart from part of the arms) but without the helmet. I role-played with him that he came into Riverwood a few years ago and had been trained in the ways of the bow by Faendal and once his teachings were finished, they started their own band of mercenaries and started from Riverwood to Whiterun. And once they run out of jobs to do in certain areas, they make their way to the next nearest settlement.

Currently they are in Falkreath doing the usual jobs. And as usual Faedal is constantly telling Aedarius off for being too hot-headed and cocky. Faendal may own a house, but since they're never in Riverwood anymore, they usually live in the Inn of the settlement they are currently staying it for lodging. Aedarius considers himself a freeman and does not plan to settle down and get a house anytime soon, he wants to explore and get all of the riches he can while he's young. However Faendal doesn't have the luxury of youth. He's actually thinking about retiring from the mercenary life but does not want to leave his hot-headed pupil yet because he fears the worst may happen to him since he is still young and foolish.

I eat/sleep, I even pay Faendal a cut of the shares in loot and stuff. I know Faendal may not be that old, but I am role-playing it so that he is since he is my character's master. I'm having a blast playing as my Bosmer.

I'd really like to hear about some other people's role-play characters they do where they immerse themselves fully into their world with their own unique character. I'll talk more detail about mine and maybe some other ones later.

Thank you for your time in reading, I'm really looking forward to reading yours.

Aradal the Lightbringer

After saving the world, becoming Harbringer/Archmage and champion of the Nine Divines, Aradal is traveling the wilds of Skyrim. He's constantly training his body, mind, and soul by purging the forces of darkness from the lands. This is, after all, his destiny and dream. Just as his forefather the Divine Crusader protected Cyrodiil from all manner of threats, Aradal shall use his sword, magic, and Voice to safeguard the north.

Right now, he's preparing for the inevitable war with the Thalmor. And when they meet him, the Thalmor will once again fall to a champion of the Gods.
