Crap. Atronach sign. Actually, thinking of it again, this could be advantageous since I rarely play a mage. Maybe make use of the additional magicka to heal myself in combat. The spell absorption works well too since in Oblivion, the last game with true birthsigns, Orsimer (my most common race choice) are resistant to Magicka. Granted, it is to a lesser degree than Bretons but this still makes a great warlock/daedra killer which many of my players seem to die to early on.

I'm 29th of Frostfall, under the Tower.

"The Tower is one of the Thief's Charges and its Season is Frostfall. Those born under the sign of the Tower have a knack for finding gold and can open locks of all kinds."

Hmm haha.

Second Seed (May/The Shadow): The Shadow grants those born under her sign the ability to hide in shadows

Well, I've always been a bit of a lurker, so I guess this fits...?

The Tower

22nd of Frostfall year 177.

The benefits definately don't apply to me though because I'm rather poor :S .

The Ritual Stone.

"If you reanimate a corpse and make it follow you to a location with more corpses (or NPCs that you can kill), you could end up with a large number of reanimated followers.
Placing the Ritual Stone power inside the Aetherial CrownDG allows you multiple castings by removing and equipping the crown. This can be used to build potentially unlimited armies of undead."

...I'm okay with this.

Oh, and I would have been born on the 26th of Morning Star in 182 of the Fourth Era.
...Since I'm normally a dunmer or altmer in the games anyways, an a mage to boot, The Ritual Stone meshes with it pretty well. If I was actually in Skyrim, I'd probably be a bit of a squishy wizard, so I'd want a bunch of meatbags around me as I hit my opponents with magic.

Stunted Magicka sucks, no magicka recharge for me from resting--but there'd be a deep pool of magicka for me to tap into, plus spell absorption would be pretty sweet! Whenever I choose to play as -myself- in an Elder Scrolls game, I pick The Atronach. It provides some interesting challenges and perks. Might not be my first choice, but then, we don't get to choose the circumstances of our birth and life, do we? Heheh.
Literally the same as you. While the Atronach would never be my first choice, maybe it's not a bad birth sign for spell swords.

The 30th of Midyear, born under the sign of the steed I move more quickly than almost any other and am hard to burden beyond my capabilities.

12th of Sun's Dawn, 4E 183, under the sign of the Lover. Which fits me, because I am totally a lover. :3
That and I like to use its powers anyway. I typically use Lover, Lady, Atronach, or Serpent. (lady is probably the most useful one in morrowind for beginners, too)
I'm @vonFawks in ESO. Typically play as my Dominion Khajiit, Jamashi Sweet-Tooth
My Steam ID is "mataata", or just look up Mataata von Fawks.
I'm also @vonFawks on Twitter.

In real life my birthsign may be The Ritual. Then again, Morning Star has thirty days. I was born on the thirty-first day, so perhaps The Serpent is in my stars as well.

Like that's a surprise to anyone.
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.

My birthsign would be The Lady (month of Heartfire), which also happens to be the one I prefer for my characters. But that's pure coincidence, because I had never thought of what my TES birthsign would be before reading this thread. Really.

29th of Second Seed, 4E 172. The Shadow.

Sadly, becoming invisible is not part of my style. If only it were more like the Doppelganger style from the Devil May Cry games.

3rd of Sun's Height, 4E 179. The Apprentice.

"The Apprentice's Season is Sun's Height. Those born under the sign of the apprentice have a special affinity for magick of all kinds, but are more vulnerable to magick as well."

I suppose that makes sense, with my favorite race being Altmer.

I was born under the Thief, 4E 180, 12th of Evening Star.

"Those born under the sign of the Thief are not typically thieves, though they take risks more often and only rarely come to harm. They will run out of luck eventually, however, and rarely live as long as those born under other signs."

Makes sense, I am pretty lucky.

The 7th of Rain's Hand,

"Those born under the Mage have more magicka and talent for all kinds of spellcasting, but are often arrogant and absent-minded."

Fits me quite well, because my first character in ES is often a mage, and the first birtsign I ever chose in the Elder Scrolls was the Mage. I am not arrogant at all, and not too absent-minded though.

I'm lucky most of the time. It makes sense I guess.

The Steed. 13th of Midyear, 4E 174.

"Those born under the sign of the Steed are impatient and always hurrying from one place to another."

meh, not a fan of The Steed :P

Sun's Dawn, The Lover, Y177

What a coincidence! I didn't know till now that I was born under the Lover. It's my favorite standing stone to use in Skyrim!

25th of Sun's Dusk 4E182. The Atronach :(

I've never found much use for it.
