Skyrim is full of great women who can't be married

Post by Crusader's Amour »

Oh Wylandriah, why can't I get your nose out of your experiments long enough for sparks to fly?

I also think Ingun would make a great spouse for an assassin-type character; there's something very appealing about her mix of demure and creepy.

At least Mjoll is eligible...if you're willing to deal with Aerin.

Bethesda wants you to get blue balls to ensure purchase of their planned spouse-oriented DLC. Much like Horse Armor, except better and even more necessary.

It's because Mara cursed the Dovahkiin to only be able to marry a limited amount of choice of women or men if they wanted to marry one of the women or men to avoid him/her taking the best looking ones and to stop Akatosh from rubbing it in her face.

I've said before, i wish Endarie were marriageable. I really liked her, she's the only one i thought would go with my ''good-guy'' Redguard.

^ Well, you can marry her sister, who's basically the same person except slightly less obnoxious.

It sucks that there aren't any marriageable Dark Brotherhood or Thieves Guild characters. A professional criminal needs a wife who's likewise. Then they could go out on nice romantic evenings breaking into houses and stabbing people.

Well, depending on how hard you mod the game, some of the more "plain" wives can turn into absolute hotshots.

Voluptous Borgakh turns a rather brutish looking orc into a serious head-turner.

But really, I prefer to use console codes to force marriage options. My favourite is Ahlam, Nazeem's (now-ex) wife. I killed Nazeem, soul trapped him, and am keeping him on display in Vlindrel Hall.

Wrong hair color. That's all I've got to say 'bout that.
Baurus: Our job is to get the Emperor out of situations like this. Though I'll admit, things aren't going exactly to plan.

Casandra: At the moment, the deadliest weapon at my disposal is a goblin's head on a stick. I'd be worried if this was the plan.

Anyone else think the Black-Briars are like the Kardashians?

Annoying, headed by a Mom'ager - everyone pretty much sucks and you subsequently want them all dead.

^ Well, you can kill Sibbi at least. And I think you can kill Ingun, but she's actually likable, at least to me.

Yeah, fair enough - just looked up Ingun. Not so bad actually.

Person of no import. Pay no heed.

She still has the bad hair.

Since when did EA publish Skyrim?

And I am suprised not to see Serena already mentioned.

Three was an entire thread just for Serana.
Damn. You. Bethesda.
They let you get the marriage options and then she comes out with being afraid of temples....

I do like Serana, but i always saw her as just a friend to my Dawnguard Dragonborn.

What? is that legit, I've never tried to marry her but that's actually really funny.

There is also that blonde girl in Markarth market place, Horki or something.

Elisif. I would pay full freight for a post-Civil War DLC that lets the player do a series of quests to earn the title of High King/Queen and marry Elisif. I'd even bring her Ulfric's head as a wedding present.

Saadia would be a great marriage option.

Is it just me or every female nords look exactly the same. They all look like Lydia.

Yep, that is legit.
I agree with Saadia (unless she did the wrong thing in her situation.)
Still, I would like Serena. I like to actually interact with a character to marry them instead of "I chopped wood for ya' let's get married." That is where role playing comes in.

Idgrod the Younger seems appealing... however, the idea that she might one day turn into her mother is more than worrying.

And am I the only one that ever mistook Maven for Ingun or vice versa when approaching them with their back turned?

I wanted Beleval, the Wood Elf of the Dawnguard, she's not wholly unattractive, but more importantly, she's a WOOD ELF. Similarly with Khajiit.

I kind of liked Carlotta Valentia, I always wanted to support them so that she'd be able to better raise her child, (perhaps so the little brat would stop telling me of how she works with her mother at that damn fruit and veg stand in the first place)

Since I don't frequent Riften much... That one woman who has you collect the Marks of Dibella, I forgot her name.

^ Are you sure you'd want to be with someone who has such a judgmental attitude towards sex?

The very irony is that Svana herself isn't clean, Sibbi has an affair with her, which leads to him killing his original partners brother, thus jail. Hypocrite.

No, not the shop owner. The other woman who hates her.
