Tonight, Matthew, I'm going to be the Dovahkiin... DRAGONBORN! -- A Skyrim LP --

[The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk]

The only book you really need to keep with you is Shadowmarks.

I thought carrying capacity was just a direct product of level in Skyrim. I don't even remember there being a stamina statistic.

edit: oh wait, stamina ah. I had no idea there was a direct correlation there. Neato.

I was super excited when I accidently picked that up for my library

[Revising Ocelot]

Not gonna update this for a few days as I hate myself too much to play games without committing acts of violence upon myself.

[Revising Ocelot]

A few days turned out to a bit longer than expected. Probably will start updates again next Saturday.

[Aldurin]

That's good to hear that you're starting this up again. I've missed Mr. Dragon-who's-totally-not-a-lizard.

[CABAL49]

Me too. I totally did not make an Argonian under the same premise.

[Revising Ocelot]

It takes a -lot- of effort to fit a hood and robes around your maw. Too much effort. Feels like you've been down in this dungeon for weeks... or perhaps half an hour. Time management might be hard, but you were pretty sure that delectable guy in the shackles was alive when you started changing clothes.





'Urgh. Ate too much. Fire's coming from the wrong orifices.'





You only just sorted out your urine trouble and now you've got serious digestive problems. Dragons should only breathe lightning in trashy fiction!

The caged guys, possessing slightly more active brain cells than Blinky, argue in silence that it was actually the spell book Blinky ate.





It's pretty musty down here. Probably a high conductor of this zappy stuff. Blinky vows to try and not accidentally "breathe" too much, because getting fried in a cloud of electricity is not especially preferable to getting fried by a wall of fire.





"Hey! Sorry! Not my fault you're sitting in a water filled cavern! I've got... asthma problems!"





"Oh for the love of..."





You're having a bit of trouble keeping what "breath" you want to use stable.
'Eh, it's the same fate as that angry Fishface would have given them. Speaking of which, where is he? Must be coming down the tunnels by now. Probably chowing down on the torturer this very second. Better hurry up.'





You think there's still a few people back there. Sucks to be them.





'This doesn't look like the dungeon any more. Where the Oblivion are we going, anyway?'





'...sucks to be us.'





On the rare occasion where Blinky had a place of residence, he usually dealt with (much smaller) spiders in this same fashion. It was often the reason why Blinky didn't keep a house for very long.





"Yeah, thanks for jinxing us. You ever killed a close relative? It's heart-wrenching."
"I've had to kill other humans for the Imperial Legion frequently," Hadvar replied.
"It's my duty. And snakes aren't even close to Argonians. You've got... curious priorities, prisoner."
"Pft."





"I'd rather not tangle with her right now. We can try to sneak by, or..."
"BEAR!"





"BEAR BEAR BEAR BEAR BEAR!"





Blinky spends a good 5 minutes alternately roasting and electrocuting the bear until even the ashes look embarrassed to still be hanging around.





Blinky really, really dislikes bears.

You don't even care that you're almost out of the cave. You've caught Bear Fever.





The sight of the dragon rouses Blinky from his delirium. Slightly.

"BEEEEEAAAAAR!"

The dragon doesn't even take note of the skyward scream. The damage has been done, and a few deranged individuals don't concern it. More important matters are at hand.





"Don't care don't care don't care, there's bears there's bears there's bears."

Hadvar continues talking, not really heeding the details of the bear induced rant but nevertheless grinning with an amused look.





"Yes! We'd better get going. This is bear country. They could be anywhere."





"And if the rebels have themselves a dragon - ahem, sorry, a "bear", General Tullius is the only one who can stop them."





'Hm. Helgen's probably a dump now, and I don't really fancy walking to Falkreath alone amongst the bears. I'll just keep following Ravdah to Riverwood. Distractions are always useful.'





"Draugr creeping down the mountain to climb through my window at night, that kind of thing. I admit, I still don't like the look of it."
Blinky is unimpressed.
"I don't even know what draugr are, but they can't be any worse than what we've seen today. I'll probably find myself up there sometime since you mentioned it, anyway. Because you're a jinx, and all."
"Yeah, yeah..."





Shaking off the bear fixation, Blinky ignores the stunning view to concentrate on these stones.





Blinky doesn't really have the energy to properly mark his territory, but keeping one of these stones in mind might be a good idea for surviving this desolate new country.










Now would be a good time to suggest a career path for Blinky. What type of character build should he opt for? Sorcery, archery, swordery, backstabbery, or whatever else may suit him that won't totally gimp his ability to kill dragons, draugr, demons and bears.

[Ramary]

Well he does not seem to be the sneaky type....

So let's go with sneaky type.

[Aldurin]

I say sorcery, Blinky seems to be the type to have chronic "sneezing" issues. Or you could choose sneak so you could dabble in stealth sneezing.
