Do like the proud Nords do and store your gold, in 20-50 piece bags, on every surface of your houses.  Then local churches.  Then crypts to respect the dead.  Any leftovers just throw into the wild to be eaten and redistributed by wildlife.  It's a beautiful economic system based around generosity and theft.

If a game gives weight to currency, I think it should at least have multiple denominations with no auto-conversion between them (I have 99 copper. I pick up one copper. I now have one silver.). Want to collect hundreds of copper pieces from every bedside table and crypt you come across? Be my guest, but you're going to have to deal with all of your weight units being taken up by nearly-worthless currency.

I'm a Khajiit. And also a werewolf. And I have like 700k bounty total.

And this is my "house":


It's homey. And more importantly, portable.

Well, technically the room itself is always there. But I can carry the entrance around with me; I set it down and it becomes a trapdoor going into it.

It comes with item auto-sort too, it's kinda THE mod for hoarders.

I like my fighting a little more... hands on.

Sadly, Skyrim has a distinct lack of proper strangulation animations.


That said, the unarmed killmoves are pretty great. Bash their face in, uppercut and then choke slam them.... reverse suplex them off cliffs.

(This is a video I did to test how well my laptop could run Fraps at 60fps while playing Skyrim. The answer is... not particularly well. Level 48 Khajiit or something, cheat-leveled up so I could quickly test unarmed damage. As you can see, mere bandits can shrug off Unarmed pretty heartily in vanilla-ish.)

I usually don't bother with elk, these were killed by the lions in the plains and I just took the carcasses for butchering.

The lion carcass pile is even bigger.
