Storm Blood from Kyne grants 50% Shock resistance
Fenrir's Blood grants 99% frost resistance
Ancestral Blood from Alfrun (Dunmer mother) grants 25% fire resistance
Beast Friend lets him soothe wild beasts with his voice for three hours
Inner Beast summons a controlled rage to fight better (Orc racial)
Fenrir's Son (in werewolf form he regenerates health [slowly], howls have 25% longer time, right after he transforms time slows down for 20 seconds, immune to disease)
Black Wolf Company Elite Training Bonuses: +5% to one handed weapons, +15% to stealth, +15% decreased illusion casting costs, +30 to unarmed damage)
Standing 8 feet 3 inches tall also gives him added speed and damage in combat.
On the other hand he carries almost no inventory, he sticks to his favorite weapons (Longclaw - in 1H and 2H forms), Fang and Tooth Nordic daggers, ancient bow - none of which have any enchantments on them and do vanilla baseline damage), will never use any enchantment (except Dawnbreaker which he considers divine power), and his armor is simple light iron and leather armor with no magic or adjusted AC - although I did make it "light" armor versus heavy.
Overall he is a lot of fun to play.
The idea, to start with only some special skills is very nice.
I tried it too. I my home-community , we started an event, what was called : death is death, what meant, that you start the game with one character and you play him so long until he is dead. I did it with Ardee and decided, she will act as a full mage without real weapons....I can say, it was really hard and the role play is completely different, when you tries to be alive...it was a wonderful experience for me
good luck wolf
good luck again wolf and thanks for the tip!
A very good portrait as you know so well doing.
Nice stuff Jon!
Worth it in the end I hope for a nice stable game. Also very pleased with Grim because I was able to switch to SkySkins for his textures which preserved his look but gave more detail to his skin. Hardest was his face but I was able to finally figure out how to keep some of his previous files so now he looks exactly like he did in his original game only much more detailed. Of course some difference from aging but that was on purpose. Silver-gray added to his beard, increased the shadow tints on his eyes, and used a rougher complexion. Really happy with how he looks - older but the same Grim. Also enjoy playing him a bit fresh although I do miss his history ... but for the most part my mind is happy knowing his history is preserved in all his stories and that I have a rationale as to why he is starting fresh.
Thanks again for the comment!
Aye having a lot more fun than I thought. I was somewhat "dreading" redoing all his content. But finding I love being a low level with him again and a chance to do many quests I never did with him. Being turned into a story character I actually did very few quests with him - mainly the main story ones and the three guild ones plus a few randoms. I still need to do the guild ones at some point but otherwise going to focus more on exploring and doing many of the city quests I never did.
Mixed in with Fallout 4 and playing Marrok - guess my winter is booked
It is nice to be able to do a bunch of the randoms quests found in the lands of Skyrim, did a lot of that with Akhaz'iir before I started his tale. Will be busy with Edrelle's tale and Fallout 4 in the winter
I hope they go back to a 1024 width for text body shots like they said they would someday. So tired of the 600 limit :p
