I want a character who favors in-the-face combat, stealing anything that isn't bolted down, the ability to heal himself, using soul gems, and can get out of trouble.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

thas a nice combo yous got there but dont bother with restoration unless your very magic based. i just usually make sure i have enough potions, dont want to be whipping out your spellcasting hands in the middle of a fight eh?

if yeh want to steal stuff you want SECURITY as a skill.
i dont use SNEAK that much,(i'm an assassin) i just made myself a ring of 100% chameleon for 12 seconds, this usually allows me to nick anything i find.(try and sneak while doing it tho, it doesnt take much as you are completely invisible)

so just replace restoration with security, but you got a nice charcter there.

Thanks for the reply, I forgot to mention the race issue. I don't really know the best race to pick. Dark Elf?

Well, it depends... what's his name ? :D

i'm a khajiit because its different, but bear in mind, if you are a beast race you cant wear full helms or boots. oh, and you jump stupid.
a breton or dark elf would be your best bets with those skills.

Sounds good. I'd replace Sneak with Security. Also there are some skills that are easy to raise with practice/training - for me, those are sneak, acrobatics and atheletics. I never put any of those in my major/minor skills. You can raise your athletics skill simply by toggling the Caps Lock and running everywhere.

OTOH, I always make armorer a misc. skill, because it's really inconvenient if you're in the middle of a dungeon getting the crap beaten out of your armor, and you end up fighting in your street clothes because you can't repair it. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

The other skill that's very valuable is block (if you're not using two-handed weapons).

I'd say a Breton would be your best bet.

Hm. I have just recently joined these dark forums of death so please welcome me.

That aside... I think that would be quite a nice character... but I would remove the acrobatics. You can easily increase the acrobatics as Rhea said, so the only reason should be to have an easy way to increase your strength. The atheltics is fair enough I think but could go as a secondary skill.

Welcome, Slayer!

I say don`t worry about skills and leveling and whatnot. It might be hard in the beginning of the game but about midway you can pay for alot of training and with a patched game that translates into level ups as well. Towards the end of the game it doesn`t really matter what you started out as because you`ll be an uber-player anyway. So just worry about making it through the beginning of the game for now.

Maxkillen, don't put in acrobatics, its really easy to get up. For me, in all my games by level 12 I'm at 100 acrobatics already. But I'd go with armorer in there. Welcome to IW

try changing your Acrobatic with Sneak, sneak is kinda important and you'll need high sneak to solve a few quest.

also try chaning your sign. while the lady give a huge bonus 20 points to endurance and personality at the beginning. that advantage quickly lose it when you start leveling up. try using a sign that give bonus magicka multiplier to your Intellinngece. like The Apperentice for example.
