Grayfell

Wasn't essential for me either. Gutted him and his goon the moment he ended dialog, wasn't with no shiny glowy runeblade either, just the rusty brand I've been lugging around the last ten levels and got an objective completion. But hell with him, I figured it was better to pay a thousand gold bounty to Velen Who I actually like and who proberbly needs a raise, than to some green skinned fetcher wi' a chip on his shoulder.

The Grayfell is currenty playing through with a sorceror style class, previous elder scrolls games a sorceror was basically a heavily armored mage that especially relies on summon and conjuration. The Grayfells's sorceror is not a bad person, but she isn't a knight in shinying armor either. She believes in doing the right thing, but she's experienced enough to know the Right thing doesn't always mean doing the Good thing. She will steal and kill (Even innocents) if the situation calls for it or if it achieves her end goals. Those that go out of the way to annoy her will likely not only be killed but violated as well, mostly being sliced up and their parts used for necromancy ( with skyre's conjuration tree). If she has to save the world she will, but she won't put up with any crap whilst she's at it. On a Mass Effect scale she'd be a renegade, not evil, but not a nice person to know either. There are some rules I always follow though. I ) As soon as I become thane of whiterun, Nazeem dies. There is possibly no character in skyrim that annoys me more than Nazeem and the sorceror despises him utterly, if she could she'd not only kill him but burn down that chillfurrow farm he's always bragging about and strike his name from every historic record. II) No Fast Travel, Anywhere, Ever. With the (very) occaisional exception of carriges and boats, I don't use fast travel methods, I rarely use horses either unless I deem it something critical. III) Find everything, Clear everything. I like having a full map, and not fast traveling means I discover a lot of locations, no matter where I'm actually heading or why, if I discover a new cave or dungeon I'll stop and clear it out. Unless it's locked for some quest ( Saarthal and Duskman's cairn for example.) IV) Vigilants of Stendar are kill on sight. The sorceror is a summoner and a necromancer, by nature her vocation means she traffics with the daedra. The vigilants would love to put me in a witche's pyre for it, and thus they are slain immediatley. Likely the Dawnguard will suffer the same. V) The Thalmor are killed on sight. With the exception of Ancano and the leader lass up in the embassy who I believe are essential flagged, the Thalmor are killed on sight. This means all Thalmor, those on patrol through the land, those that wander Markarth's throneroom, all of them. Don't waste time trying to teach an Altmer lessons they shouldn't live long enough to learn. VI) Dead people stay dead. Followers that die stay that way, something happens to a quest giver I was working for I accept the quests a failure and move on, my favorite blacksmith or vendor dies in a dragon/vampire attack I will mourn them but there will be no return. No resurrecting with console commands at all. VII) People the sorceror likes ( Not as short a list as you'd guess from all of the above) she views as under her protection. She'll go out of her way to help them if needed, or rush to their aid if there's a battle. Loyalty is important.

Hell, I'd pay fer that. Or even some kind of throwable explosive bottles maybe, like an alchemists fyre or something. Wonder if'n I can adapt Dragonborn's comical exploding spiders to it. Damn you, now the gears in my head are whirling again. :3

Iron takes one ore. Iron takes 3 ore for me... Guessing you have Skyre or something going on then, it changes the crafting system. Most ingots take three ore with it enabled, and other stuff like steel needing Iron ore & charcoal instead of Iron + Corundum.

With Skyre enabled, Stamina becomes real important real quickly. Running dry in a group battle buggers up blocking and mobility and pretty much Guarantees an instant death situation. But yeah, vannila skyrim, it's worthless and stamina potions pretty much become vendor-fodder.

Current character's a Breton squire, followed the knight she was training under into skyrim to investigate and kill dragons because, hell, that's what knights do. Except our chivalric boss has been bumped off by thalmor for been a heretical Talos worshiper and she's been bungled into a cart for execution ( or simply left for dead, if I'm usuing Live another life.) The squire's pretty much lost and useless right now, relying on light armor and sneakyness to survive, but perhaps as she performs great deeds she'll slowly fill the role her old master left behind, moving into heavy armor and two handers, gaining scars and warpaints, earning the right to own property, horses and titles and become a proper knight. Although it's quite possible she'll fall from the path entirely, join the brotherhood or the vampirics, become a Blackguard or a villain. :]

The Grayfell does not post many images ( He's not rig't good at it likes. Besides Screenarchery is hard, you ever tried to shoot a 19 inch monitor out of a longbow?) But he watches many many images, and reads many many stories. Be those images VictoriaG, the Darkling and the Tsaritsa Berseneva with impressive photo-bedazzlery, his little Willow pimping Cabal's latest fashions, the Pineapplevision showcasing yet more ENB Sorcery, or the epic sagas woven by Benbenben and company. It matters not, he enjoys them all. The Grayfell is sure his voice is worth little to this debate, but he will ask thy hallowed Nexus staffery to reconsider anyway. The Grayfell does not cherish the idea of finally having to make a Flick'r account and clogging his bookmarks folder with the multitudes that will flock there. Thy nexus will be a bleak, desolate saddening place without their prescence. He hopes for brighter things, ¬The Grayfell.

I forget the authors name. But I'm pretty sure that's the "Avatar of Grenth" armor and it's about on nexus somewhere. =]

Took a hell of a lot of digging (was a long way back that I saw it and my history folder hates me :] ) but I finally found the one I saw, Author's name is Calyps and her Blog is here http://calyps-smexus.tumblr.com/ ( again you'll have to dig through that too, the armors she works on are mixed in with all manner of other randomness ). I actually thought she had some up on nexus but it seems I saw only screenshots and the actual works are still W.i.ps and betas.

There is, or at least there was, a project aimed at doing exactly what you seek. I know a few pieces were already released but I can't for the life of me forget what it was called or who the author was. Wasn't that long ago that I saw this, I'll try dig through my history pages a little later for you and see if I can find it. 8] CTRL + Q to Enable/Disable GoPhoto.it
