As to fun characters, I started first time through as an Imperial warrior. Basically your typical hack-and-slash type guy, axe, shield, and heavy armor. When you get far enough with the shield and armor perks, you become fundamentally invulnerable on normal difficulty. Well, when you remember to block. I got into a fight with those two Valkynaz dremoras by that shrine, and two dragons at the same time, one ancient, one blood.
Only time that guy has died since getting daedric armor. :)

So I bought this for PC off the Steam sale and started up a new character, a Redguard two-hander. The trouble is, I want the gameplay effects of heavy armor but the looks of hide and leather. Does anyone know of any mods that add vanity items to the game?

This has ancient Nord barbarian heavy armour. Might fit your needs.

edit: This might be better for your Redguard actually:

When I run the game with the SkyRe data files checked the game closes after the Bethseda intro. Without it doesn't.

I've done that, or similar.

"You're one to talk, you look strange with an arrow in your face."

Playing a Khajit stealth archer with a minor in magics.  Trying to find anyone who will sell me a damned conjuration spell, apparently they're all hiding from me.  Getting 3x damage on bows is very nice though.

I usually go stealth melee. Stealth ranged just makes the game silly easy :P

Yeah disable all the SkyRe_Plugin_* files. (If you don't have any of those specific weapon or armor mods. Which I think you don't, with 'Vanilla FTW!' and all.)

Ah, I was wondering why there were so many damn boxes to check / uncheck.

Maybe I am just fail, but I hardly ever get to sneak up on people. Granted I am only level 7 but out in the world enemies always get the jump on me and in dungeons there are only a few to ambush and even then I can't get into backstab range.

I am looking forward to invis for sure.

Melee sneak only really becomes viable at high sneak. Plus there are some enemies that are nearly impossible to sneak even when it is pretty high.
