I'd be either a Breton or Bosmer (as they both remind me of my Celtic ancestory) and i'd go straight up to Solitude and join the Bards college.
Or cut wood and walk around Whiterun saying "I work for Belathor at the General Goods store"
Or set up tall in Whiterun selling knee armor. I'd make millions.

I'd probably bench press elks to get shredded as [censored] brah. Then every merchant and bandit will be mirin.

Myself in Tamriel:


Breton
Lute Player, Possibly involved in the Bard's College then (Musician IRL)
Capable Archer
Would live in the Imperial City (simply because I loved it there in Oblivion)
Would live a very comfortable life packing out pubs around tamriel

I dunno, I think you should just open a saloon across the road from him, and have a high noon drinking hole showdown.

So let me get this straight: this thread is about "translate your live into Tamriel" so this is not to explain what you want to be but rather explain yourself in Tamriel ways.

The people of my race are definitely Nords. They love music, mead and smashing things with big hammer. They also hold prejudice for no real reason, blame other for their own mishaps or misfortune, and hold their traditions close to them.

My class right now is definitely Agent. I am an elitist who does things my own way. I sees the world differently from normal people. I can manipulate others but prefers to remain in shadows.

I won't take Vampirism, Lycantrophy or any "give your soul to me" contracts, I prefer using my own ability and knowledge.

Ha! Good idea. I wouldn't have an issue killing him, if it means saving innocents.

if i were to transfer my life from Earth to Skyrim..

I think i might be the teenager jarl of whiterun
your turn

So you really think that somebody who does something worthy of Assassination Contracting is Innocent? You do realize that the bulk of the contracts are to kill people who have wronged the client right? You kill plenty of Pirates and Bandits and whatnot. Besides i live my life by a simple code above all others: Exitus Acta Probat

Maybe. Maybe not. I don't think all of the db marks are worthy of a death sentence. Shatter shield for instance. Also the homeless one near ivarstead. We have no idea if he deserves death.

Hey, if i knew they deserved to die, I'd be right there with ya. Let's start our own assassins guild.

Shatter-Shield is an optional part of that contract as most contracts contain something optional. Narfi for one is kind of mysterious since he lives as a beggar in the middle of nowhere, which means i assume he did something very bad and is hiding with his sister to escape whatever he angered

Well, start a guild where i know the marks are guilty and I'll join.

Morag Tong?

I only vaguely remember them from Morrowind. I recall them being the more honorable guild. As long as i personally know they're guilty, im in. Guilty marks that is..

See how your opinion of guilt determines your tamrielic existence? That was the point in the 1st place

I did once, a nord Mage. As mages have the thing for knowledge over brute force ect.

I usually don't though, for me TES is a way to escape reality and effectively 'become' someone else.

I can respect that, but some people see themselves in way that encourages grander things

Well, you didnt specify your targets. I never said I disapprove of killing. I said i disapproved of assassinating innocents. As to who determines who's innocent...that's a whole other thread.

Oh I'm not questioning it, I can see the apeal

Well, from what you wrote here it does seem like you like to kill for a living or something but still, i doubt i live within a thousand miles of where you live, so

If i lived in tamriel, i would probably be something like that failed mage with a staff you might have encountered in skyrim. I would probably love magic and all that, but would probably svck at it if it involves spending 90% of your time with dusty old tomes and such.

Its either that or some sword and shield guy. Although im not strong at all, but i do like the feeling of a sharp sword on one arm and a nice shield on the other.


Egh, thinking further i'll probably be dead already if i really were what i described.

Well i am not saying that if the Night Mother said "Go kill that 2 year old just because" that i wouldnt reply "Dafuq?"

Ha! Me too

I'm not sure about giving a soul to sithis, though.

Double post.

Eh a Soul is a bargaining chip in Tamriel anyways, Lucien Lachance seems to enjoy the Void

Plenty of people have wronged me in life. I don't think it's therefore justifiable I pay someone to kill them. Or that the person being paid to kill them is somehow absolved of any moral responsibility for doing so. Even if there may in some cases be a reason for wanting someone dead it's possible to feel sympathy for, that is not what a contract killer is interested in - they're paid to kill people and the reason doesn't matter.

Bandits can be seen in a slightly different way - they attack you, so you act in self-defense or even if you're seeking them out that can be seen as because they're killers who prey on the local populace. And you don't have an option of taking them alive. Even if they yield, they get back up and attack you again.
