But Hand-to-Hand in Oblivion is beast and way more satisfying then killing with a sword.
yeah original, and you dont need to repair anything

I want to be a Wood Elf sneak like I was in Oblivion (stop hatin' on wood elves! they have the most focuesed and signifigant bonusus to sneak stuff) but I'm worried that my 3 foot 9 Bosmer (provided I play as a male Bosmer) will look like a child next to the towering 7 foot or whatever Nords that will be rampant. :|
^^^^^^ This man is clearly insane.

Female Bosmer Archer as always. I just love roleplaying female Bosmer. And I love archery. <3 other characters will be a Male Dunmer Knight, Male Altmer Mage, and Male Khajiit Rogue.

First character will be a nord barbarian who uses two-handed weapons. Second will be a dunmer travelling swordsman, sort of a wandering samurai type.

For Skyrim I like the idea of a Nord Caster, maybe something like the shaman from skaal.

I'll most likey start out as a melee oriented Nord. After I gain a feeling for the game, I'll create a Breton Battlemage. I almost never make a well balanced character on the first try.

Probably a Breton, a Nord or a Bosmer. But more than likely a Nord.

I seem to like Dunmer for my first character, will learn how to fight, sneak and pick locks , heal and maybe a few other cool looking magical things (i hope conjuring and of course fireballs/lightning bolts look good)

so probably a jack of all trades, and being a dumner will be ready to cause trouble amongst the nords

Will definitely want to play a conan like nord fighter/thief tho

I have to congratulate you that know who you'll be. I never do. The character creation process of any Elder Scrolls game takes me hours because I am so absurdly picky about it. I usually end up playing the game through one time without too much depth with a random character; after that, I go and create the character I'll really get into and rediscover everything.

On top of that, I simply cannot be the leader of every faction with one character...it's too much for my mind. I create a character for a specific role and that's what they do. It's like, you, Dunmer - you go be the Fighters Guild master; you, Bosmer - you go be the Gray Fox. Am I the only one who does this? Ah, c'est la vie.

I am always a Nord or Dunmer, though. I think I will go drab Imperial. Or maybe come out of left field and be Altmer. Or...
Huzzah!

I will be the Dunmer god of war, I will have dual swords, and I will rip those who oppose me in half, I will stop at NOTHING to save Tamriel from destruction.

I have so many character ideas. I think my first character will be a female Nord who wields a 'freakin huge two handed sword, wears heavy armor, and generally smashes things that don't agree with her. Either that, or a Dunmer thief who wields two daggers/short swords, hides in the shadows, and coats her blade with poison. xD And/or a Khajiit spellsword with high persuade who uses the trick.

My first character is usually a "do everything" sort, but generally I do the exact same thing. Of course, I did that differently with New Vegas when I played and actually worked on different quests depending on character type, so maybe I'll try this again with Skyrim with my first character. It'd be kind of nice playing multiple games and having totally new experiences and new quests each time.
