Funny Morrowind stories..

So, "unique" as the game system for stats and leveling up is, there's bound to be some funny stuff going on, right?

Well, my friend was playing the game last night...and at one point, his finger slipped and hit the "E" key, making the character jump. This was completely by accident...but that single jump made him level up acrobatics, which, in turn, leveled up his character.

This kind of stuff has happened to me, also, though my memorable experience was falling and landing hard on the ground, which leveled me up.

Anybody else remember something as goofy as that?

Well... I was walking around Seyda neen and I didn't see nayone... then I stepped on Fargoths head! woohoo!

I've levelled up in medium armour after being killed by a guy with an orcish hammer!

And the falling thing is directly related to your acrobatics skill. You'll level faster in acrobatics when you injure yourself than by jumping normally. But, in a weird kinda way, that makes sense.

It does make sense. If you jump on the spot and land perfectly, you learn nothing. But if you jump from a building and break both of your legs, you learn a new way to not land.

Most likely, creating a "Nuke" spell and accidently casting it at the assassin that attacks you... Let's just say I'm not part of the Mage Guild anymore [img]tongue.gif[/img]

... that, and you either appreciate the sounds coming with Morrowind even better, or detest the sickening crack you hear each time you fall off a roof.

The first time I started playing, I underestimated the sneak ability and tried to pickpocket someone in Balmora. My unarmoured went up as the guards killed me [img]tongue.gif[/img] .
