If I remember correctly weren't the Snow Elves, Orcs and Forsworn in Skyrim before the Nords? I am not fond of either side in the Civil War, both are dirty, corrupt and in it only for themselves...but if I do the Civil War quest I side with the Imperials, simply for the fact that the more races united in Tamriel the stronger the opposition to the Thalmor....more strength in numbers.

Sleeping Dangers - Sands of Time (aka The Way of the Dovahkin - Ultimate Deadly Encounters)...An all in one stop Mod that completely covers your above request: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/12452/?

Two here, I don't use them myself so know little about them, but here they are for you to check out: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/20054/? http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/31389/?

If you want something really different, I ran this play through once and it completely changed Skyrim, made for a very unique experience...pure magic (I am not fond of playing Mages either) but she proved a whole lot of fun. A Pacifist, she used only Illusion, Alteration, Restoration, Sneak, Pick Pocket, Speech and Lock Pick, no Weapons of any kind, nor Armor and no companions...she never harmed another, but still managed to explore all over and complete a number of quests...My favorite moment with her, she Pick Pocketed a needed Key off a Bandit, I thought she got away clean with it, but then some Hired Thugs came after her, she Pick Pocketed them clean too... :laugh: ...I want to know how they explained that to the Bandit... :tongue: ...The game was achievable, took a lot of thought and finding new ways of doing things, but was going well, I did have to use a Mod to give her Illusion a boost, but otherwise all good until I decided to activate the Dragons, that's when the game when pear shaped, Illusion doesn't work on Dragons....But a Pacifist is a great deal of fun to try if you don't mind being Dragon free.

Have you asked 'Bronze' the maker of the 'Seasons' ENB? He is very supportive and helpful.

I love how many ways there are to play this game, the open variety it offers, so much more so with Mods...Reading your post Adipose, we choose to play our games with almost polar opposite areas of interest and priorities, I love how the game allows for that. I play a Lone Wolf Light Armored Poisons Archer (sometimes has Stenvar with him, but most generally alone)...no Enchantments/Magics/or Beneficial Potions (healing/buffers) of any kind (uses Bandages)...Two tiny abodes, a titchy Alchemist Shack in the far south and a slightly larger Mammoth Bone Shelter in the far north and all he keeps in them is Alchemy Ingredients, Dragon Claws and a few Pelts and Ingots. Doesn't loot and doesn't buy and sell (throws away what's given to him), lives purely off the land, making his own Armor and Weapons and living off meat and water (is a Werewolf...RP'ed as born Werewolf...infected while still in Helgen and so eats like a Wolf). Like you though, I do love both immersion and exploring Skyrim and tend to focus more on exploring than main quests, is so much to find and explore, so many mini stories to be found in out of the way Caves, Castles, Dungeons, etc...though I like my game challenging myself, pretty hard core thanks to some incredible Mods available...and just remain very, very careful at first until he gains some levels... :happy: ...though I often enjoy more so playing a seasoned Warrior out of the Helgen gate and so level his selected skills manually instead of the level grind, I find that a whole lot of fun... :happy:

....Also, you will need to then find Armors/Clothes that are BBP/TBBP compatible, or your breasts will only bounce when naked.

Two ways...and if you look at question three on the CBBE's description page. it tells you how it's done, though you don't really need to play around with the Body Slide. Is just a simple overwrite. Download this Mod...UNP Blessed Body...: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/37900/? then simply overwrite with CBBE's...: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/2666/? Second way...why I asked body type is because if you just want a quick and easy no fuss download, there is the CHSBHC body, but all are large breasted...: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/4888/? I use the NMM to do the overwrites, I am not sure how its done manually.

What body type do you use? CBBE, UNP, etc...?

If you look down the list of download files, you will note one of the bodies can come with default underwear. http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/2488/?

Damage Undead spells, I used the Sunlight around Serana, is definitely effective... :D ... : http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/40171/? As for the leveling, I don't know of any faster leveling Mod, but I often like to RP an already seasoned Warrior, more fun in my opinion, and so use this Mod myself...: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/33070/? I can't help you with a Restoration Mod though, I don't know of any.

Though by the same token if you don't use any restorative Potions or Magics (only slow heal bandages) and play perma death the Bow is vastly superior, allowing for both ranged and melee ability. The vanilla Crossbow is a joke, but a Heavy Bow is perfect...not only can you start weakening and whittling down enemies at range, but once you are in melee with them that Bow Bash stagger effect is a very useful blessing and avoids a great deal of damage to the Dovahkin, especially so if you use enhanced NPC AI combat Mods...plus your shouts are just as available to you as with any other weapon. It's all in how each of us best plays.

Sorry, but no... :sad: ...I would love to also, but can't.

You bring Buffy into this?!!... :blink: ...Angsty teen and her cohorts... :yucky: ... :tongue: ...But at least even she had the sense to be suspicious of the new Vamp and not immediately become 'Best Friends Forever' with it... :blink: ....can't say the same for the Dovahkin... :sad:

Jesus Christ... Nah, just fooling. Play as you wish, I don't necessarily care. But as Rennn said, this thread is rather ominous. A bit too much for my personal tastes, but whatever floats your boat, aye? I have absolutely no interest in sadism or torture, too much even for a game for me, my Dovahkin does not torture her, he kills her. I love Role Play and RP my Dovahkin heavily, he is a Werewolf and as such holds a deep aversion and ingrained revulsion towards the walking dead, especially of the Vampire variety....That he is forced to go against everything in his nature to be teamed up with a Vamp to destroy a head Vamp family, his intolerance for Serana builds up over time until such a point that his final reaction is one of deep fury, thus his choice in her execution...call it a pent up explosion.

Here's a Mod for Bandits and Forsworn, I don't know about the rest though...Chivalry: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/14116/?

Well, how about a bucket (aka Chamber Pot) and a Water Barrel (washing)...not in their own designated room, but the Water Barrel somewhere near the Kitchen, I am not sure where they would keep a toileting bucket inside though.

Here you go, it's for CBBE, I use this one myself and the effect and quality is very good. I know the Modder has replaced this Mod with a later release that also works for UNP, but he seems to have dropped the dirty skin in the replacer Mod...: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/24394/?

Sands of Time is a brilliant Mod... :dance: ...is the one I use... :happy:

Ambush Archer/Ranger: Archery...Heavy Bow and Crossbow: Heavy Bow slower to fire but hits harder....the Crossbow is the Van Helsing Mod Crossbow and so shoots 6 bolts in fast succession. Alchemy...Poisons and buffs against Fire only, doesn't make or use any other Potion. Light Armor...All the focus is on agility and speed, Mods help to achieve a realistic agility. Stealth...Using Mod to make stealth much more challenging and realistic. Two Handed Sword...secondary skill in moments of extreme need, I prefer all Battle styles using Bow only including Melee. No enchanted Weapons or Armor, no Companions...NPC combat improvement AI Mods and Boss Mods...my game is Mod designed for focus on patience, tactics and strategy (Perma-Death)..is favorite game style.... :happy:

'The Way of the Dovahkin - Ultimate Deadly Encounters'...aka...'Sleeping Dangers - Sands of Time' http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/12452/? All encounters completely tailorable to your own experience wishes in the MCM.

My Dovahkin puts Serana down after she is no longer of use to him, I use this Mod to do so, 'Heart Breaker - A Killmove Mod': http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/32598/? As far as I am aware the Mod 'Sneak Tools', the Throat Slit option also kills Serana: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/19447/? But I just personally find the Heart Breaker animation infinitely more satisfying for such a moment.... :happy: ...I am surprised you were able to get Serana to cure herself, I have never managed to do so, just can't play cozy with her. My Dovahkin Werewolfs out on her, gets her to bleed out state, then tranforms back and rips her heart out... :D

Both Hairstyles are from the same Mod....NUHairstyles...: http://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/48409/?

As a female I much prefer playing Males, I play in third person and so reason fairly obvious.... :tongue: ...I also like the concept of the strong alpha male and enjoy involving myself in his RP, I take the RP very seriously, I want a story not just some kill fest.

That's why I personally prefer the 'Paarthurnax Plus 3 Choice' Mod...it's not about keeping both sides on your team, but instead allows you to either put Delphine and Esburn in their place with a verbal reprimand or kill them and registers the quest as completed.
