I am quite amused by the idea of a lich warlord with low self esteem worried that the humans are slandering him behind his back
THAT'S LITERALLY WHAT'S HAPPENING TO MY CHARACTER.
He's not a Lich, since I'm a skrub with a Learning 40-ish char, so he's an immortal still-human-looking Nord Necromancer Warlord, but other than that, it's literally what's happening.
In fact, my impending world domination was rather abruptly halted by my character cyclically getting Stressed and, later on, Depressed traits due to being slandered ALL THE GODDAMN TIME which wouldn't go away despite my secession from Eastmarch largely stopping the slanderers and several attempts to magically cure both - it always came back, with a message that he's sad that people don't seem to be comfortable around him, and he has like 3 Personal Diplo.
So, my character wound up stabbing himself several times in suicide attempts to little effect, but finally he managed to render himself Infirm - which, annoyingly, renders you unable to use spells to fix that very issue and my Magister despite having like 20 Learning himself won't fix the damn thing.
That also prevents me from summoning no-upkeep 100% loyal event troops with magic, so Western Skyrim is as of right now a largely arctic world power ruled by a magnificently be-facial-haired forever-living ruler using a secret security force to kidnap and, occasionally, torture dissidents. Now I only need Thalmor to show up somewhere so I can have the appropriate opponent to ally and be betrayed by.
I am so amused at the idea of a lich king in Crusader Kings that I have to try the mod. I was already gonna, but that cinched it.
I wonder if Khajiit can be lich? Will try to find out.
Yep. You can also magicooly turn yourself into any race with high enough personal Learning. But the best thing about this mod's Khajiit...
