Portable campfires? Even portable campsites. Each upgraded campsite is nicer and warmer than the last, but also more expensive and heavier. I.E. A tent with a fire made out of bear pelts would weigh ~50 with a cost of (say 1/4 of a decent house?) 2,000g. It could have a chest for goods, a cooking pot, alch. table might be too heavy to make sense, so possibly a smaller version of an alch. table just for the tent... and while I'm on alchemy, you could have potions that would warm you like resist cold or brand new ones, as well as food items like hot cocoa :wub: I think I rambled a bit too much didn't I? Oh well. Great idea :)

60 posts put in while I was gone at school today; :ohmy:

I am still waiting for the construction kit for Skyrim just like everyone else, so I wish to have most of my mod planned out before its release so I can be ahead of the game and get my mod produced in a much faster fashion. Now, onto the details. I felt inspired to make this mod after approximately thirty hours of Skyrim game play. Before playing the game, 64 spells seemed weak. After playing the game, magic was so satisfying it didn't matter. Now that I'm a master wizard, I feel slightly deprived of certain abilities/spells I think I should have. I would like to include spells from Morrowind and Oblivion (Such as mark & recall) possibly some Midas Magic spells (If I can ever contact Xilver from the plane of AFK) and add some other spells submitted to me by you, right here on this thread! Yes you, not the person looking over your shoulder about to assassinate you right now, you! So come on down (the page) and comment! If an admin sees this, do note I have posted this in the general forums before being accepted into the mod author forum. If you wish to lock or remove my other post, I will have no arguments.

Ellundil had gone ahead of the party for some days, here is a brief description of what happened in his travels, but do to storytelling reasons the details will be revealed to character dialogue: Since Ellundil sought out to figure out what this sudden surge of power meant, he went directly to the "College of Winterhold" in the northern portion of Skyrim. He had consulted with the new appointed arch-mage Lothlorias about how he felt about this new power. After two days of study in the library, they finally figured out the answers. Ellundil was indeed Dragonborn, but not in a normal sense of being able to use "The Voice" he was literally half dragon, so now they had to find out how to bring forth Ellundil's inner dragon. After mere hours of research, Ellundil learned that if he absorbed a dragon's soul he could then bring forth his inner dragon and become a true half-dragon half-Altmer, but there was a catch. He would have train his body, his soul, his runes to be able to accept the change. Between this time, and Ellundil's arrival at an abandoned fort near Redrock Cave, he had gone through vigorous training at The College of Winterhold, High Hrothgar, and the Companions in Whiterun.

There's a dragon shout that I'll have to look up the details later. I don't think I saw it in your thread.

Thank you for the point of views, as well as the welcomes into "the club" ;D

Leave your OOC stuff out of the RP, either post it here, talk to one another in chat, a private message, or a comment on someone's profile, please please please! I can't express enough how it bothers me. I have my preferences set to 30 posts per page and I get on and there's two more pages to read, it takes a lot of time for me since I have a lot of IRL stuff to juggle, and I would really appreciate if it was kept to different areas. I'm not mad at anyone and I'm not telling you what to do, I'm just stating my feelings. -Ian EDIT: Oh mah gawd, I forgot to put "not" in front of telling :facepalm:

Haha! That's quite... creative. Maybe some sort of absorption method would be easiest ;D

Destruction will have a couple effects brought back from Oblivion, however, I do agree the other schools need more focus. Making it nighttime? Or perhaps a shroud of darkness? Genius, or perhaps another spell just for mountains.. no your right. A levitation spell makes more sense ;D

Recently, Skyrim came out, and I created this game-save which starts you out right where the guy says "Who are you?" but that's not what this post is about. At the time of posting this, I'll be at 996 unique downloads. It has come to my understanding that you need 1,000 to be in the mod author group. Now, you might say, "Why would someone not want to be in the mod author group!? It's special and stuff." Well, the answer in my case would be simple really. I believe that other authors of actual mods deserve such a position more than I do, however for some strange reason people don't end up downloading their mods. I just feel that if I'm accepted into the group that I don't deserve being in it. I would rather be accepted into the group after creating an actual modification or plugin for Skyrim whenever the Construction Set comes out for the game and create a "Spell Tome Expansion Pack." which is precisely what I would like to be known for instead should it be successful as I want it to be. So what do you think? Do I deserve to be in the mod author group because I had a good idea, or should I wait til' later so I actually deserve the position.

Whoa whoa, they have a list of NPC's you can marry!? Where is this wizardry!? If I look at it, maybe I can see if there are Khajits/Wood Elves on there, maybe something you missed. Also, whenever the Skyrim Construction Set comes out I am sure someone will make an expansion for the NPC's you can marry.

For anyone who wants to try, you have to max out destruction. Type in advskill destruction 500000 into the console to get there. Make sure you get the book "Power of the Elements" from the Winterhold College destruction instructor. Then go to these locations. I have the same issue as the chap above, and I cannot seem to figure it out. It only worked on that first location for me and the second doesn't work. I recall trying to go to the third one but got distracted.

Dammit I'm a sucker for blondes. :P

Ellundil was unaware of the events that had happened behind him - and he probably wouldn't have cared anyways, for he had learned something on his ride, that he had control. For once, his powers brought him control, he was in control, and he knew that he had greater power now, but little did he know how it manifested inside of him, how it burned through his blood, how it clenched to his heart, he was indeed, Dragonborn.

I wanted to get everyone's thoughts on this one... I want to take my character, Ellundil, to the next level. Something extreme, but I wanted some feedback and permission from the fellow players first. Originally, I thought up a large story on how to become a lycan/vamp. breed, but since one of the characters (MikeRyan's) is already a half-breed I had decided to scratch the idea. So I left myself thinking, since we are heading to Skyrim, why not lead myself to the path of becoming a half-dragon. (Much like a Red Dragon Disciple for anyone who plays DND/NWN) But I did find a problem in this. Ellundil has extreme, uncontrolled power. He is afraid to release his power because of some of his past (which still remains a secret) that of which leads to it releasing itself during times when Ellundil's emotions rise to a "fever-pitch." Since Ellundil's powers derive generally from his body and soul, and becoming a half dragon would strengthen these by a tremendous amount, I wanted to see what everyone thought. I think this is a very interesting path for my character to take, and I would love to do so, but I wanted to make sure that it's OK with everyone to do it before I start writing up a huge story on how to do it/ Ellundil's past that lead to it. Okay, I thinks that's enough, but if you have any more questions post a reply on here, PM me, leave a comment, or catch me in the chatroom. Thanks for reading ^_^

And Ellundil, once more tried to get the people to leave the Inn, seeing as his efforts had become futile, he yelled one last time "LEAVE THE DAMN INN!" and with that - he was off, bound for Redrock Cave to see if he could find anything. He didn't care that he had left the others behind now, and he was travelling at an alarming rate, however, he felt calm and in control with his celestial steed. It was indeed a strange thought that such a creature would ride through the rain, on an old road, in a dark ominous forest, but actually seeing it was entirely different. The steed seemed to be camouflaged by some magical force, it took on the appearance of a white - almost blue stallion as it began to ride further along the road, it was starting to learn it's place. Ellundil felt confident on his steed, for he know he was in complete control, and unlike before on his previous ride, he wasn't prepared to get off any time soon.

Ellundil slammed down the rest of the alcohol, he wasn't as drunk as he would have wanted to be, but he made due with what toxins he had-then mounted his steed. "For the love, will we ever leave this damn inn!?" He shouted aloud, hoping the other members would hear him.

Ellundil saw that Reona was becoming more and more uncomfortable, so he bust in answering the "mysterious woman's" question; "My, as you say, runes, were formed purely off of my emotions. Being the magical entity that I am, I was beginning to lose control of my power, I saw the danger it caused. I could destroy forests, towns, castles, mountains, and one day, it just so happened I did. That's a chapter left for later times, however." Ellundil was surprisingly calm and relax, and you could tell by the way he had gone through five beers, and four decent swigs of brandy, that he was having a simply awful time.

Ellundil stood dumbfounded for a moment, "Err... right on the way, malady," and with that he was gone. Now, standing before the barkeep he ordered, "Two be- fou- make that eight beers and a bottle of brandy, I think I'm gonna need it." The barkeep put it all on a tray, then Ellundil used a bit of petty magic to float it over to the table where the "mysterious woman" sat. Ellundil, now getting back his grounds, gave her a kind glance and asked, "And what might your name be?"

Then with that Ellundil broke his silence, bursting into the inn. Ellundil strode forward to the bar grabbed his new "friend" on the arm and thrust her back from the barkeep. He then spoke, "Now, that wasn't so nice was it? How bout' we sit for a moment and have a few beers. Yes, a few more beers would be nice."

Ellundil sat on his celestial steed and fidgeted very impatiently, then he couldn't bear it any longer and blurted out to Reona: I can't wait any longer, shall we ride forth together into the South? We can set up a decent camp along the road then contact the others through Arva, or other conventional means.

Ellundil was feeling clever, so of course he began to express that in one of the only ways he knew. "Well, you took long enough princess. ;D Now all we need is 'Queen Kalin' and we are all set to go." Ellundil is not dimwitted, and not off of his toes either, he knew quite well about the figure lurking about them, and he knew it for some time. Likewise, he also knew that he was probably not the most introductory person that had ever been in the universe, so he left the pleasantries to his other companions, only one of which that seemed to have decently polished "feminine charms"

Rhaine laughed aloud, first at the now blue horse, then at Reona's predicament. "Dear, dear, Ellundil...what shall we do with you?" Satisfied that Thanatos's black, silver-studded tack was all in position, she put her foot in the stirrup and hoisted herself up, swinging her leg over his broad back and settling down in the saddle. The stallion shifted fluidly beneath her, then began slowly backing up as she flexed the reins. She turned him towards the stable doors, passing Ellundil's colorful steed, "Come on then, friend. Let's go to the inn's entrance and wait on our comrades, shall we?" "Indeed we shall," retorted Ellundil, riding forth on his colorful (but still slightly dimmer :dry: ) steed. Ellundil, obvious to his personality, would not give leeway to the fact that he was starting to enjoy travelling with others, though the short time he had been doing it. He also did not want to admit to himself that his trust was forming with them, but it still had miles to go, and many adventures and hardships to go through, before it was bonded together like perfectly forged silver.
