Might make a ''Death Knight'' kind of character.

Yup. EverQuest calls them Shadow Knights. In Warhammer, they are the Blood Dragon clan of vampires. I'm sure there are tons of other fantasy lores out there that have the "Death Knight" archetype of a warrior necromancer. It's definitely not a WoW creation, and I hate whenever I talk about building those types of characters in games like Skyrim, or writing about those kinds of characters in my own fiction, and people try to correct me and say "Oh no, you mean a Death Knight"

No, I don't mean a Death Knight. I mean what I freaking said.
Yea i even have a variant in the books i have been writing for the past 6 years. But i just call it a Thrall Knight because there is only 1 and he serves the most powerful Necromancer in the realm

She will worship worship the nine divines, especially Arkay and Talos.
For Daedric princes...i don't know...Hircine maybe.
I also want her to be able to go to Sovngarde when she dies. (she is still a nord who prefers honor over power)
So unless i know a way to get her to Sovngarde as werewolf (probably impossible), i might cure her after the companions questline.

I got myself into a hard decision now. :confused:

Interesting

You chose Arkay as a deity to worship. You understand its pretty hard to reconcile necromancy with Arkay's blessed cycle right? I'm not saying it's impossible, but it seems rather contradictory for a Death Knight to revere Arkay

I thought it might have made a bit sense since my character won't be evil but good.
And since Arkay is the god of both life and death (right? Or am i mistaking?), I thought that It might make a bit sense that my character prays for the support of Arkay to lead her to the ''right'' path. Pretty much the same reason to worship Talos. To give her hope.

But I do understand your point, I will reconsider the worshipping thing. Perhaps I should only focus on Talos for this character.

I'm not sure if you are planning to do the thieves guild quest but the nightengale hood with a set of ebony armor looks killer.
