    What is "going too far" for you?

    I don't steal unless they're a thieves guild target, or kill unless they're a DB target or attacked myself. Even as a thief and assassin one must have honour. I also don't take dogs because they have a bad habit of dying. Eating human flesh/heart is also a no-no. I also don't do Namira's, Molag...

    Imperials or Stormcloaks, what one?

    Imperial ships are allowed free naval passage as part of the white-gold concordant. Remember they are actually at peace, not just a cease fire. However it is rather uneasy, but you could say the same about the peace between the USA and Russia.

    Smithing

    Well it makes sense that the master blacksmith to the Imperial Army in Skyrim would be rich.

    The Matter of Where.

    A dingo will eat your baby though. No joke. And as long as you stay on your guard and are wielding Skyforge steel then you'll be fine

    Imperials or Stormcloaks, what one?

    I'm not quite sure that Nanalata's posts are headcanon, rather role-playing as a Thalmor and just trying to spread propaganda. I can imagine the Thalmor saying things like that in order to justify their cause, but in reality just want power.

    Your Skyrim "head canon!"

    Well I suppose being fiction they can make it however they like. I've also noticed that the line of succession doesn't go to the firstborn male but the firstborn regardless of gender, unlike almost every medieval royal family. There's no doubt Tamriel is ahead of it's time when it comes to...

    Your Skyrim "head canon!"

    > Ulfric has no children and has not married because he prefers the company of his generals, especially Galmar. > Elisif is Torygg's sister, because the royal line of succession never goes from husband to wife, it's always to children, then next sibling, children of that sibling, then cousins...

    What Happened To The Magic?

    I think (well hope) that it was a choice made to reflect the culture of Skyrim. Unlike the Dark elves and the Imperials the Nords generally do not have much respect for magic and prefer to use swords and axes. However the exception is the Thu'um, which all Nords respect and fear. But Magicka...

    Smithing

    Mining iron ore + Transmute ore spell (found for free at Halted Stream Camp, just north of Whiterun) + Whatever Jewels you come across (there are heaps) = Profit. Or you could mine other ores and hunt animals for their pelts to create high-value armors and weapons. If you have a spare soul gem...

    What God(s) / Godess(es) does your character worship?

    Drakonas (Lithuanian for Dragon) the Nord is my sort of canon Dragonborn, who worships all the nine divines and Shor, but most of his thoughts are on Kyne, who gave men the power of the voice; Talos the Hero-God of man and and Akatosh, who gives the Dragonborns their power. Draak Mordenar...

    Ysgramor, Hero or Murderous Savage?

    And I think that the fact that Ysgramor won the war makes him a hero. And if he was a murderous savage, why would his original settlement be peaceful? Until someone can come up with some in-game proof that Ysgramor went too far and tried to kill off not just the snow elves but all other...

    The Matter of Where.

    I'm surprised not one of you have even mentioned sharks, dingoes or Ivan Milat and the backpacker murderers. The list of things that want to kill you goes on, even our serial killers target unwary tourists.

    Overpowered Weapons?

    Not a weapon, but Spellbreaker is an over-powered shield. It's both a shield and a ward in one, and as strong as an Ebony shield. And the quest trigger happens early on in the game, right around the time you can only find Iron and Steel shields.

    Spoiler All Elves are Jerks.

    Well any race can be made into anything. You can have a powerful Nord mage, a sneaky orcish rouge or a mighty Altmer warrior. And even with the NPC's the Thalmor soldiers (not the mages) can hold their own against the toughest Imperial legionnaire or strongest Stormcloak warrior. And the idea...

    Ysgramor, Hero or Murderous Savage?

    And instead of helping the snow elves, they enslaved and poisoned them and turned them into the monsters they are now. That's pretty low, lower than meeting them on the battlefield, which is what Ysgramor did. And I guess the Atmorans did not trust the snow elves at all. In the case of world war...
