    I've never seen anything like this.

    One time, I was running around the area outside Solitude (honestly, this, the Reach, and Hjaalmarch are where I spend the vast majority of my time in this game). I shoot an arrow into the air, just messing around. Nothing happens, I think nothing of it. Anyway, I went into Wolfskull Cave, or...

    Argonian Question.

    It makes no sense at all to assume that only the caravans were banned from cities. If it was just the caravans, all the Khajiit would need to do is split up and be like 'no I'm not part of a caravan. You're silly for asking!' and just conduct their business on the down-low while doing something...

    Another Skyrim Nexus Bannee

    To be perfectly honest, I think Sean pretty much supplied the be-all, end-all of this subject. The comment about 'what a piece of s*** armor' was inappropriate and should have carried consequences (and look, we can rationalize literally anything if we want to, so let's not get on that track)...

    Argonian Question.

    That's a part of Skyrim's -- and all TES games really -- bigger problem, which is that the game steadfastly refuses, literally avoids, ever acknowledging you as a character. You are a pair of floating hands (what is this 'third-person PoV' you speak of?) that may hold some combination of...

    How can I create a tank?

    Breton, or Orc. Orc has a racial to half all damage received (and increase damage dealt, but that's not what we're focusing on, right?). Breton has the magic resistance. Heavy Armor, particularly the right side of the tree. Block. The talent to deflect arrows, the talent to half elemental...

    Who attended your wedding in Riften?

    Incidentally, Illia was my latest Skyrim marriage. No Sorex Vinius at this one though. :*( In fact, it was just some mod companion and an unnamed NPC ('Barkeep' or something). Very low turn-out. I suppose it's understandable, as the character wasn't very old. But man, stupid Riften citizens. I...

    Another Skyrim Nexus Bannee

    While I didn't find that video funny (not even close to my sense of humor), the fact that it's bannable in a setting where some of the biggest mods feature prominent pictures of penises and vaginas (both human and non-human) is darkly hilarious. Nexus is good for mods. As a community, it's...

    PS3 How does your housecarl behave after you get married?

    Jordis' behavior doesn't change at all. If you keep her in Proudspire Manor, she even continues to sleep on the mat in the basement.

    PS3 What are your thoughts about a Nord using magic

    Is there a reason she couldn't have studied with Anise? An illegitimate kid (especially one who basically comes from the Skyrim version of the Corleone family) is probably not going to be predisposed to floating in the most reputable of circles, may or may not be ostracized, and Anise is right...

    Oblivion and Skyrim

    I liked the cities in Oblivion more than Skyrim for the most part. This goes for the population, but also for the layout, and for the aesthetics. Cities in Oblivion were set up in a way that lent them personality, made them look different. I understand that all cities are essentially grown...

    Writing Help

    Every idea is inspired by something else. How loose this inspiration is varies by idea (and person), but you can always trace the origin of an idea back to some outside source. Ideally, it will be barely -- if at all -- recognizable when you're done, because by the time the idea is fleshed out...

    Does Mage Armor work while wearing morokei?

    There's mods for removing the armor on the Dragon Priest masks so it won't mess up your mage builds, though obviously that doesn't help for console players (which I assume you are).

    Who attended your wedding in Riften?

    Not really polygamy issues. :P They all married characters I thought fit the mold of what I was trying to RP (Sylgja was probably the loosest one, as that was my first major character, that I was just running everywhere with). Jordis' character was a mercenary from Cyrodiil who came up at...

    Who attended your wedding in Riften?

    My very first marriage in Skyrim, ever, ever, ever, was to Sylgja (the miner from Shor's Stone). And I had the whole Shor's Stone crew show up, a Riften Guard, Alvor, Faendel, Camilla Valerius, Lydia, that wandering bard guy, Ondolemar (wtf), some mod companion I hadn't picked up as a follower...

    Having trouble becoming Thane in Falkreath

    Have you tried dropping armor and baiting someone to ask for it?

    What is your favorite village/settlement/city?

    Village - To be honest, I don't recall any village prior to the installation of Interesting NPCs striking me as particularly memorable. I remember Riverwood, because why wouldn't you, and Ivarstead, because I had just spent like an hour squat jumping my way up the mountain to High Hrothgar --...

    Background stories for your character

    I honestly don't see where you're disagreeing with me at this point. You think a less 'traumatic' story with less tragedy and murder and betrayal and likelihood of sad Evanescence songs playing in the background would be a welcome change, and you are totally entitled to this opinion. It's...

    Background stories for your character

    Being in the same general radius means what? Being in roughly the same quadrant of Skyrim? You weren't sharing a cookfire with the Stormcloaks thinking they were just dudes chance met on the road when the Imperials swooped down on you. They got ambushed, presumably while attempting to stage an...

    Background stories for your character

    There's no reason it NEEDS to be morbid and depressing, but considering the situation Skyrim throws you into, it certainly helps with immersion. Unless you're using an alternate start mod (I do, personally, but I know a lot of people don't), are there really very many good reasons to randomly be...

    Uh...I think Ysolda found the bath salts

    Hey, tried this, and it seemed to make her hostile to me (in dialogue), but it did stop her from attacking, and there were no other victims of her 28 Days Later-esque rage rampage. setrelationshiprank again, and she seems to be okay. Here's to hoping. Thanks for the advice! Incidentally, the...
