Demonbane775 Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 (edited) I've always been a fan of robot or mechanical types in any game. I have a few android and robot race mods for Fallout, but I've yet to find anything at least somewhat lore-friendly for Skyrim. Regardless of calling them Warforged or something else, it would be cool to see some artificial constructs in Skyrim. Possible racial abilities: +10 one-handed, +15 two-handed, +15 Heavy Armor, +10 Smithing, -10 Sneak (Being made of metal is not conducive to being sneaky) -10 Speechcraft (You're big and made of metal, people are gonna be intimidated) Racial power: Skin of Steel- Impervious to ranged damage and high reduction to melee damage for a 30 second duration, slightly more vulnerable to magic damage during the duration. I could probably do the stats and such for myself, but I lack the knowledge/ability/skill to actually modify the racial appearance this much. Appearance for male and female- Female- http://orig04.deviantart.net/baaa/f/2007/259/e/6/warforged_commission_by_melukilan.jpg Male- http://dungeonsmaster.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/warforged-01.jpg Modifiable parts in character creation- some sort of artificial hair, change color of metallic parts, eye color, height, weight slider, modification of face parts and different body chassis configurations if there's room for fancy stuff like that. Making them lore-friendly could be pretty easy, just have them be Dwemer constructs. the race mod could even fit in with Live Another Life by offering the player the option to start in a Dwemer ruin.

CaarosKingOfChaos Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Seems like an interesting idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WinsomeMinotaur Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 I love this idea. I could help with the new race EXCEPT for the design / 3D stuff. The other technical stuff is easy (well, depending how crazy you get with it) but I don't know anything about the art / design side of things, and in my opinion if you are going to make something as fantastic as Warforged (prolly have to call it something else for legal reasons) then it should be done well, and look like someone spent some time on it, IMO. Would love to see something like this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edsh0t Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 Just to let you know, there is a mod out there that would work great as a base for a warforged race. Its the Craftable Followers Npc's and Playable race, it includes a manaquin race that is fully wooden. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demonbane775 Posted October 18, 2015 Author Share Posted October 18, 2015 That could work as a baseline, but it would still take someone much more skilled than I to modify that mannequen model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
