    Imperials or Stormcloaks, what one?

    So there's some degree of oversight? See, I have trouble understanding this from a Doylist perspective. If your religion is banned and that ban is enforced AT ALL, you care. Several someones in another state made death threats against and then shot up the house of a woman from a religion not the...

    Spoiler Daedric Princes and the afterlife

    Well, there definitely seem to be Daedra for whom "oathbreaker" is a selling point. :) Although I'd think in that case your new patron is the one stuck with any fallout from your broken oath, so if you're going to betray one to serve another, you'd better have something pretty good to offer...

    Imperials or Stormcloaks, what one?

    IDK, I like Drunken Mage's logic here, it fits with what we know of Tullius: that he sees through the Thalmor, that he detests politics and just wants to do his part asap and get out of there, and that he puts his Emperor-given duty to end the rebellion first. Execute him, end rebellion. And...

    Spoiler Daedric Princes and the afterlife

    It's funny, I assumed the exact opposite, that the *first* patron takes precedence, not the last. Oaths tend to have quite a bit of meaning, as they did for RL Nords, so I've played on the assumption that the first oath taken is binding unless something is done to break that oath and atone for...

    Imperials or Stormcloaks, what one?

    Thanks for the reply. I think I'm "neither" by personal choice, or "conflicted". I do think Tullius is a good, honorable man, and I do think he's got more clarity of thought than Ulfric, with the PTSD he's wading through. Point of clarification, though, on the above quote: did the Thalmor...

    Battleborn or Greymane?

    Isn't the neutral answer that you don't take sides? It's an astute choice, assuming you figure out enough context to get that much. A lot of the dialogue options are cultural minefields. If you boast, some respect you more (Maven), but if you *don't* boast, others (Aela) respect you more. If you...

    Battleborn or Greymane?

    I tend to make a random choice. Unless your character is a Nord from Whiterun Hold (who therefore would have heard of them), demanding that someone who just entered the city answer "Grey-Mane or Battle-born" is equivalent to standing outside Grand Central Station and saying "pink sheep or teal...

    Who would you marry, if only it were allowed?

    I kept her a vampire. When my DG character asked her about curing it, Serana seemed to shut her down pretty quick. As this character is a werewolf who chose to stay a werewolf after curing Kodlak, she understands the idea that this is her nature, period. I rather like the idea that Auntie Serana...

    Imperials or Stormcloaks, what one?

    Never bothered them... except for the son of one of the city's most prominent residents, whose mother wails in the town square and is disrespected to an appalling degree by the rich man in league with the lad's captors. As a player, I think the civil war questline is rather brilliant because...

    So why were you captured?

    Great thread! Hope it's okay if mine is a bit long. Janu: Was living a marginal life in Hammerfell and was slowly making her way along looking for a more prosperous place for a thieving career. Should have known that the foolish Imperial guard with the jangly purse had nearby friends looking...

    Who is your favorite Daedric Prince and why?

    I adore Sheogorath. "Mortal, insufferable." Snark at me, make me laugh, and you've made a friend for life. Sanguine is a definite runner-up (even if he is hopelessly glitched for my main character, he's just a missing arrow on the floor-- guess he thought I took too long getting around to him?)...

    newb on board

    Glad to have found this place, to free my friends and husband from all the Skyrim nattering. They play, but they don't RP in it as much as I do, so it's good to have other people to talk to about this one game that I can't seem to put down, even a year and a half after I got it. I play on Xbox...

    Who would you marry, if only it were allowed?

    Ulfric, Brynjolf, Neloth, Tullius, Tolfdir... the Companions and maybe one or two of the housecarls are really the only ones on the list up to anything resembling the DB's intensity level. Drives me nutty to imagine any of my DBs marrying some random innkeeper, farmer, smith, etc. What in heck...
