Here is my latest Skyrim character. I went for a different look than my usual character. I think she came out rather well.

Not entirely fitting Skyrim...but, my backstory (summary) is she came from a very cold, harsh land...think of north/south pole in real world terms.
She is a vampire (wasn't before arriving in Skyrim), and uses only ice magic. If need be, she'll use a one handed sword.
Looks a bit heavy on the makeup.
It's like a glittery statue.
I can't get over the armor; I mean, just thinking about polar cultures and climates, I'm pretty sure that's not exactly Chukchi. Even more than warmth, it's like a giant "stab here" sign.
Then again, I've always been a bit of a stick-in-the-mud when it comes to fantasy armor.Something that pulled at me when I visited the Alchemist's lab was that I wanted something like the FNV hardcore "eat food or die" mode.
Are there any good mods like that?
Two off the top of my head.
Realistic Needs and Diseases: Relatively straightforward, similar to the FNV model. Eat food, drink water. Penalties are granted if you eat too much or get too hungry, first to regeneration rates, then to actual skills. This is a bit more up-to-date and can be configured by the in-game mod configuration menu available in SKSE, so it's the one I use. Also increases the effects of untreated diseases, however, as indicated in the name.
Imp's More Complex Needs: This is the big momma of nutrition mods. "Fullness" is tracked, but also calories, nutrition, protein, and so forth. These are all calculated based on your character's height, weight, body fat percentage, and skeletal muscle percentage, which affect how often you need to eat and how quickly you get drunk. Also MCM-compatible. I used to use this for a while, and I've mulled over switching back every so often.
