I like to play as the Thalmor, so I obviously chose a Thalmor NPC. But that is not the point. Skyrim has many, many interesting NPCs I'd love to play as. Like Paarthurnax. Or Cicero.
Of course, with the mod "alternate Actors" we can actually play as any NPC of your choice, like in here:
Playing Skyrim as an NPC
However, even if you play as him/her, little changes regarding the plot happen. You can kill the original player character and play the rest of the game as the NPC you are controlling. But the game will then start recognizing this NPC as the new player character and treat him/her as if they are the new Dragonborn, with a few exceptions (for example, I can enter and leave the Thalmor embassy without being harassed while controlling my Thalmor NPC; even if I attack a thalmor Justiciar, the others will help me kill the one I'm attacking).
So, my question is: which NPC would you choose?
Also, does anyone know of any mod that allows a deeper immersion regarding playing the game from a NPC's point of view?
