Where in Tamriel would you live and what race would you be ?

Post by Pieter the mage »

I think many of us would probably love to live in Tamriel but how would you live there and where ?
Also I appologise if this has been done before.

I'd probably be a Dark Elf with great magic abillites that would live just outside of the Imperial City with alot of gold and power. I know it's a bit OP but that's how I like it :P

I would live in Chorrol, and be a Breton hunter doing various work for the townspeople, selling pelts and other hunting spoils in a shop.

I'd probably be a redguard blacksmith owning a shop in Sentinel. I'd prefer my neighborhood thalmor free thank you very much.

If you translate my heritage to Tamriel, I'd probably end up a Breton immigrant to southern Skyrim or northern Cyrodiil.

I would be a Dunmer burglar working with Thieves Guild, traveling all over Tamriel wherever the jobs took me. I'd probably need a cover story to avoid suspicion, so I would probably have a "day job" as a traveling merchant or collector of some sort.

I would be a Wood Elf living in Valenwood, hunting animals under the thick canopies, painting my face in different colors and wearing hide or fur armor trying to be one with nature. The perfect existence.

An Altmer Mage living in Summerset isles before the damn Thalmor took it over. I love magic and there is less chance of being killed by a mudcrab there. Unless someone enchants one and causes it to become 50ft that becomes enraged.

It's all forgivable as long as you're drunk when you're doing it.

I'd replace being a mage with battlemage because then I'd be awesome with weapond and magic.

I would be an Argonian, and I would live in Anvil or somewhere in the Nibenay Basin. I would be an alchemist who uses a dagger for defense, and when I would have free time, I would go hunting with my bow.

I'd be Altmer scholar from Summerset Isles. Magic is fascinating and my inner researcher would very much like an academic lifestyle. I'd like to travel around Tamriel and learn about different cultures and such and improve my skills in magic.

Or then I'd be Bosmer hunter living in Valenwood. I freaking love nature and would probably use my command animal powers to pet random wolves and such.

Well, considering that i'm Norwegian, i would probably be a nord, in Skyrim.
As for what i want to be...
an imperial in Cyrodil, who serves the imperial guard at daytime, tends to his sheepfarm and goes hunting after labour-hours.
Oh, take me there ^_^

I'd be a Nord of Whiterun. By day I'd hunt deer in the moors and woods, then I'd return and cook up some fresh venison stew for an evening meal. I'd then spend the night in the Bannered Mare drinking mead and exchanging tales of valour, and how we defeated the traitorous Stormcloaks for the glory of Skyrim.

Imperial in Imperial City or Anvil with a boring paper-pushing job in the bureaucracy.

I'm inclined to say that, given the choice, I'd live in the late 3rd Era as a Court Wizard, preferably in Anvil, or scholar within the Mages Guild or Arcane University. As far as race, Altmer seems to be the most appropriate, and if it were the 3rd Era, racial prejudice would not be that great an issue. Still, being an Imperial is an equally attractive option, although perhaps less appropriate for my chosen profession.

If I'm very reallistic I would just be a Nord or Breton Commoner, living in a nice town like Chorrol or something. I like magic, but I wouldn't join the Mages Guild or any other guild because then you will get various dangerous jobs and I wouldn't want the danger to die so easy. So I would just be a Commoner and maybe a Merchant, I would really like to sell books.
Everyone says this and that, but I would find that too dangerous. You could call me a wimp, but if you're really living there you shouldn't say that I think.

Hand of Almalexia. Dunmer in mournhold. Basking in the glory of the Goddess. Or a female Dunmer night blade during the wars against Cyrodil.
