Weird Things in Skyrim That You Think Only You Do

My khajiit character sneaks up on, then attacks/chases down dear, foxes, and other small animals. (with his claws, of course)

I too can not pass by any urn or jar...I just have to see if there is any coins.

Oh, and every now and then I just HAVE to jump or whirlwind sprint off a high mountain or cliff - just to watch my heavily-armoured Orc warrior fall and tumble down the mountainside like a ragdoll. Also, I sometimes jump off the College bridge just to see if I can hit water when I land and survive. I usually don't.

Remove all "clutter" from the houses I buy, clutter includes but isn't limited to:
*food items
* bottles of wine, mead
* dishes of any kind ( the ones stacked in the kitchen stay )
* wicker baskets
* book's, but they go into the book case
* tools of any kind

I do decorate my houses, Kitchen table gets a bowl with apples in it. Things like one of each helmet get put on shelf ( I roatate them ). bug's in jars go on table or dresser, claws go on mantles or dressers. Dynamo's go on tables that may be in a dark corner.

I guess I just don't like they way they have food everywere.

And they always blame the Khajiit for taking the sweet roll. Typical of the Nord.

I seem to have developed an unhealthy habit of fireballing every single harmless goat that crosses my path and to add insult to injury spending hours fireballing the corpse.

I make scarless characters, then, after a specific "epic-like" battle, I enter the showracemenu and add scars to show my character has been through some crazy S**T.
I do that, too! :biggrin:

I used to think I was the only one who held his breath when my character goes underwater.

In fact, I used to think I was the only one who did a lot of slow immersive stuff like actually walk in cities and that or who play their charcater rather than someone who does everything even if it makes no sense, but i`ve found there`s quite a lot of us. Even if a minority.

We few, we precious few...

I don't charge soul gems myself. I think it's incredibly unethical. I use only already charged gems since they can't be saved at that point anymore.

I carry around a supply of food and cooking supplies but almost never eat/use them.

with my nord dragonborn, i make sure to sit on every throne i come across in the hopes that eventually it will trigger something.

my suspicion is that it never will, but.....

My character has a thing for boiled creme treats. Steals them wherever he finds them and then goes of to a corner to savor his prize.

It is comforting to know that I'm not the only one who always saves while looking at Lydia so she's in the pic, and avoids soul trapping because my mage simply wouldn't do that, and always sits on thrones, and...etc.

Very, very slightly comforting.

I store books of interest in a wardobe at my arch-mage quarters. Example: Immortal blood, The Great War, Midden Incident Report, and The Mystery of Talara v1.

For some reason I feel the need to hide dead bodies. For example, I'll move bodies off major roads or paths in to taller grasses. If a fire is nearby I'll throw the bodies in to the fire to destroy the evidence. If a bridge or cliff is nearby I'll just toss them over the edge to "hide" them. I'm not a big roleplayer but I still like the sense that I'm covering my tracks, and leaving no evidence behind. Imagine that bandit coming back to his fort after leaving to find some food and everyone is gone, with no traces of the bodies.... just the occasional blood splatter.

I like to play Falmer sometimes, so when I run into them in Dwemer ruins, I will put on full Falmer armor and crouch down next to them in their huts for a while. I know that I sound like a stalker, and maybe I am a stalker, but I always leave a sweetroll behind as a present to, you know, let them know I was there at least.

I also experiment on them, to see their reactions.
One time I used Fus Ro Dah on a Falmer in Nchuand-Zel to push him off a ledge and into the water below, simply because I wanted to find out whether he would drown or not. He didn't drown (Falmer know how to swim), but my small experiment caused a minor bug. The Falmer kept running away from me after he'd found a way back up. He just let out that weird, strangled sounding cry whenever I came too close for comfort, and after some hissing in terror he fell down the very same ledge from before and hit solid rock that time.
It made me feel very guilty and my experiments have been less daring since.

other character builds i have will definitely do the same thing.

for me, i wonder if it's splintercell carryover, lol?

This makes me smile... I did something similar, only I used the Hysteria spell on 3 of them, it produced....similar effects
