Ok so all of us who have wanted to marry the "best looking npc" in skyrim have looked far and wide for the best woman for our tastes. I looked in each city and noticed that all the "sixy" npcs tend to not be open for marriage. They either are involve in a quest, which results in their death, have no dialogue options, have no quests to give you, or have a vampire problem (by which i mean they won't marry you). These people are easily identified with their stock Tavern clothing. Most of the time.

(I am on a wife hunt which prompted me to take note in the women that you talk to/fight.)

Now there are a few good looking npcs left, but they tend to have war paint on that covers their face. For my character I'm using now, I didn't want a warrior wife as that means they're probably real manly and not very feminie.

That left me with even fewer choices. Ysolda, and the girl from shor's stone. One you can't change her ragged clothes, and the other is ugly to me one day and decent the next.

Now as I'm noticing this crisis with the lack of decent women to fit my character, I take some time to go find some sword or whatever and end up fighting a village of Forsworn. As I am looting the bodies, I noticed that 90% of the forsworn were women. Then I remembered previous forsworn battle from my 1st character and I remember commenting on the high ratio of women in the forsworn!

As I look at their faces to see which characters they resemble, I notice the majority of them are very good looking!!!!!!

So I came to the wild conclusion that all sixy women of skyrim are doomed to join the forsworn!

Has anyone else noticed this? What do you all think about the woman selection in skyrim? I know there are what... maybe 5 decent looking npc women in skyrim that you can marry?

I'm not considering elves, khajiit, argonians, or anything not human.

Basically the only woman who isn't a warrior and one that is decent looking and open for marriage, that I have found, is Ysolda. The girl at shor's stone will only wear miner's clothes and that bugs me so she's out unless they fix that.

any opinions?

The words "decent looking" mean nothing. "Decent looking" is in the eye of the beholder.

Hmmm, if I recall correctly Lydia is now viable for Marriage? Or at least once 1.5 is out and you purchase Breezehome, but maybe you don't find her "Decent looking". Oh and if you don't like her armor, a high enough pick-pocket skill and a few perks can change that, heh.

Buy a fifth, drink and play late into the wee hours of the night. They all look purtier at closin' time. Why do you think mead is so popular in Skyrim?

Ok fine they're buttface ugly. Sorry I didn't want to say it that way but I'm not into pixels so yeah. The best looking ones you can't marry and leaves you with subpar. Unless you're fine with marrying another manlike woman.

I don't want to marry a man. That's basically what all the woman are who take up arms in Skyrim are(imo). Too manly but i know some guys obvously don't mind that. lol

and I kinda covered this in the 1st post...

i do not drink and neither does my character.

Plus I'd rather not get diseases and even though you can't get an STD or get someone pregnant in skyrim, I don't participate in that crap since my character is way above that low level trash lol

Who's the bard girl from Dawnstar again? http://images.wikia.com/elderscrolls/images/1/1c/Karitafull.png? Yeah, she's pretty cute, for pixels anyway.

The person who does the Shor's Stone girl's voice has such a pleasant voice eh? It's like a kind-person voice or something.

Can you marry her?

I've come to the conclusion that if they wear those clothes she has then you can't marry them.

Pick a nice woman at random, approach her, and explode a bottle of Telvanni Bug Musk between her and you. Should solve your problem.

Whaaat? Ewwww.

which is why joining forsworn is the answer to your women problems!

I think the Nord women are generally pretty/cute. The men look like feet most of the time and the only ones you can marry without the console are typically wusses/unspectacular except for Farkas and Vilkas.

2+2=4? brilliant!

Pah. What a bunch of milk drinkers.

I guess, the Dev are men, and they truly understand it is impossible to get a decent woman with so easy approaching (finish their quest and wear the mara amulet), and so that's what left for such simple marriage in game...

Dev "Want decent woman, go mod it yourself..."

Yay verily. My preferences are from normal plain Jane to slightly bodybuilder muscular. Yet the Playboy look really doesnt catch my attention.

They're cartoons bro.... CARTOONS

You were probably making decisions about their faces after evaluating the rest of their bodies.

You must've not met Muiri. Otherwise this thread wouldn't exist.

I like Muiri, but that face paint turns me off. More so with Aela.

Put them in a sixy dress, and you just see how dirty & unkept they are. Notice how there is no bath tub in Skyrim.

Beauty is subjective. Some people like large fake briasts. I denounce and attraction would have had with implants. Now I don't mean if you had to get it for some medical reason if that exists...But im sure every one knows what I mean. It's like buying them tangs at Walmart or something....

SKYRIM, Yes.


I agree with Aela, but I think it makes Muiri cute.

At least you guys all have the semblance of a choice here. I only get one eligible Argonian female and she dresses like Ysolda.
