Race: Khajiit
Attributes: Magicka for the first 200 points, then all three raised equally. At level 42 they are 370/170/170
Skills:
One-handed - The five "Armsman" perks. I buy training in this (then steal back the money)
Sneak - All the backstab tree plus Muffled Movement
Illusion - Everything except Dual Casting, Master Illusion and Master of the Mind (for balance reasons)
Pickpocket - The line up to Perfect Touch
Enchanting - The central line up to Extra Effect
Restoration - This is hard to level but it is worth getting to 40. Necromage is good but takes a long time to reach.
Light Armor - This also does not level fast, but Agile Defender is worthwhile
Lockpicking - No perks
I became a vampire immediately through a quest at Morthal. I also did lots of Daedric Prince quests early on, because they have lots of useful gear, especially Namira, Mehrunes Dagon, Azura. I joined the Assassins Guild for the gloves and boots and Thieves Guild for fencing jewelry. Also the College for buying spells.
The playstyle is a sneak-thief vampire cannibal backstabber. Dragons are super difficult, which is good. Basically combat is just backstabbing, plus Invisibility and Fear, Pacify and Frenzy in the left hand. You make money through stealing and enchanting.
