SKYRIM BELONGS TO THE NORDS!

[My Name is Immaterial]

I would like to defend my choice of the Imperials, because Imperial control of the Skyrim will help stimulate trade of Nordic goods throughout the Empire, hopefully spilling over to the rest of the provinces, resulting in more things for my character to steal.

[kj1225]

That's a fine point but as a counter...
Fuck the Altmer.

[My Name is Immaterial]

Oh, I completely agree.
But Elvish coin is no different than Nordic coin, except for the fact that there's more of it.

[kj1225]

But consider this, people hate the altmer so if they got kicked out they would be happier and more likely to spend money.

[My Name is Immaterial]

But would that spending spill over to Elseweyr? I think not, because if the Nords win, they focus their newly independent kingdom's resources on gearing up for a war with the Thalmor. If the Empire wins, they focus on consolidating their power in Skyrim, and possibly look to conquer new provinces, inspired by their success. They would also ramp up a diplomatic/espionage campaign to undermine the Thalmor and free themselves from the White-Gold Concordat. This would end up being better for trade, since the Nords would have to fight through the Empire to attack the Thalmor, distracting resources away from trade.

It's also important to determine if Emperor Titus Mede II was killed by the Dark Brotherhood. Since the Emperor is unconfirmed to have any descendents, and was contracted to be killed by the Elder Council, this could lead to some serious changes and disturbances in the Empire.

[kj1225]

Nah man, everyone knows we already have our new emperor in Skyrim. The dragonborn.

[My Name is Immaterial]

I thought that was implied.

[kj1225]

Dragonborn for god emperor of mankind.

[PrivateNomad]

In this game, all the major events that could have happened in skyrim are true. The emperor was assassinated, the falmer eyes were stolen, the Eye of Magnus was discovered, etc. Whether or not these were done by the dragonborn is questionable.

I can not swing useful alchemy, so I am dropping it for now.

Now a cone of healing spell might be useful...

I have like 300 points left, not sure what I need to make my character a little viable.  More varied customized healing spells?

Deadric lore to represent being a minor Azura cultist?

Ferandr, Adept Healer

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

Born in Skyrim as a servant to a minor noble family, his father Savos is a cook and his mother Tolisi was a guardswoman.  Feran was contracted at a young age to be a servant to Jofnhild, one of the lords sons of the same age.  He had a knack for magic and was given training to help serve the house.  His training was cut short however.

When Tolisi died his father revealed the truth that she was from an ashlander tribe which had not migrated.  That night Ferandr was contacted by the spirit of an ancestor from the mythic era, a powerful mystic healer who revealed where his ancestral tribe was and encouraged him to meet them and learn their ways.  He revealed this to Jofnhild who was by then a good friend and encouraged him to seek his destiny, even if leaving was betraying the house.

After a long journey Ferandr arrived at the tribe and a combination of useful healing power, earnest interest and scolding by ancestral spirits he was allowed to stay with the tribe.  In time he was inducted into the tribe and the cult of Azura.

He was glad to learn about his people but still did not like he could stay there.  Every year the life was harder on the tribe and it was only a matter of time before they fell.  Ferandr left, seeking a new home for them, powerful allies and trade partners or magic powerful enough to change the wastes.  He was also the target of those who thought he was not a true Dunmer, both from other tribes and one hateful woman in his own.

He has 2 younger twin sisters who as far as he knows are still living in Skyrim at the last time a letter went through.  Jofnhild is still considered a friend and any letter of need would be responded to, even if it meant returning to face the consequences of leaving.  Rena, the ruler of his tribe was a strong mentor who supported his decision to find a way to help the tribe.

He is an initiate in the cult of Azura, he knows the common stories and prayers and worships her as a great ancestor in Velothi tradition.

I'd personally take some traits and talents, and then use the left overs for items.

[VoidSlayer]

I'd personally take some traits and talents, and then use the left overs for items.

I made two custom spells to restore attributes, costs 70 magicka and restores 5 damaged attribute points from each one.

Also took one of the Magicka discount talents, now Ferandr can cast 100 firebolts!

[VoidSlayer]

Armor is expensive... wow.  I am 500 drakes short, time to cut back.

[PrivateNomad]

Everyone's sheets done?
