and you look like this:

You are now an Argonian, possibly hailing from the ancestral argonian homeland of Blackmarsh, but perhaps not, whos to say... oh right YOU, that would be YOUR decision. A Decision to be made later.

Well yeah you kinda have to be from Black Marsh if you're a humanoid lizard-person. You see any sentient trees growing in Skyrim? Or is the seceded Argonian state smuggling Hist sap into the Empire for whatever reason? /Lore Nerd

an array of horns under the chin like a beard sort of so that you have natural neck protection
also maybe some horns on the head

plant new Hist trees

Because that worked out so well for the Blackwood Company! And that was in a similar environment to Black Marsh. I don't think Hist trees could survive in Skyrim.

As for the appearance, I think the one the author made is fine.

[~ATH]

For name, I'd go with Burns-Down-Castles.

And for looks, uh. How about blue scales with yellow feather-hairs.

Two standard horns.

Maybe this guy didn't get the memo, leading to hilarious antics?

[Blizz98]

>CHARACTER CREATION!!



Yes, he shall be BERUM-LAI, possibly a Royal Argonian Spy, most likely not actually that. Among the Items that he starts with that are not pictured:

-One (1) Iron Bow
-One (1) Iron Dagger
-One (1) Fake Moustache
-One (1) Cigar
-Forty (40) Iron Arrows
-2.5 Septims.

Now the Final Question is Simple. Are you finished? Would you like to restart the Creation process, or just get on with the Adventure already.

Also, something I have stupidly neglected mentioning for WAY to long, but this will be a cross-over style adventure in the vein of Falloutstuck, which you should give a read, as well as its reboot, which is sadly currently under indefinate hiatus.

I am sad to admit I could never finish the Fighter's Guild questline. I just couldn't care about anyone involved in it. Except for that one wimpy Bosmer. He was funny. Anyway,

> Yes, get on with it.

Oh, the tragic irony. Actual spoiler ahead, not that anyone really cares since Oblivion is like six years old.

That wimpy Bosmer is the final 'boss' of the questline.

I use the word 'boss' lightly because you fight a room-full of enemies tougher than him right beforehand; one of whom can have permanent fucking chameleon depending on how high-level you are.

==> Ponder practical benefit of cutting a septim in half. After starting the adventure anyway.

[Blizz98]

>Begin Adventure




Ow. That is the first thought you have upon waking up, the very next thought you have is an observation that you cannot actually remember much before this very moment, least of all how you ended up here. In this... apparantly a Crypt. Though you posit to guess that you were likely tossed through yon hole that is unfortunately out of reach though you can't imagine why. Anyway, you collect your barings, noting the assorted ritualisticly prepared Nord bodies, and two possible means of advancement, a path directly ahead of you that goes on a ways straight before turning, you can hear loud 'booms' echoing down that way every now and then. The other path, to your left, immediatly curves rightward, and so theres not much you can see from here.

>Ponder practical benefit of cutting a septim in half.

You ponder this, and come to the realisation that your half a septim is completely worthless! Rendering you with effectively only two septims. This minor loss of funds lowers your mood slightly.

Inventory:

-Iron Bow
-Iron Dagger
-Leather Armor (Equiped)
-Leather Gauntlets (Equiped)
-Leather Boots (Equiped)
-False Moustache
-Cigar
-40 Iron Arrows
-2 Septims
-Worthless half septim

note: the Inventory will be omnipresent, so you don't have to tediously check what you have whenever you get something new.

>Take the left path and run into Draugr.

[Mr. Sunshine]

==> Ponder practical benefit of cutting a septim in half. After starting the adventure anyway.

50 silver pieces is half a Gold Piece in most universes. I've never seen anything smaller or bigger than a septim, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist, it might''ve been a mechanical choice that Bethesda made way back at the beginning.

[~ATH]

> Go boom boom wards.

[Storm]

Go towards the huge ass explosions.

[Pandemonius]

Head toward the explosions, being a sneaky little lizard as you do so.

[Qeztotz]

>being a lizard comes with many problems in life
one of them is being susceptible to loud booms
>rush headlong into the forward corridor like a newspawned imbeciel

... Now I HAVE to go back and make sure that actually happens. Shouldn't take too long with fast-travelling.

> Whatever's making those booms will be fairly obvious. Obvious is safer than the possibility of the silent undead sneaking up on you.

Gorram Drauger Death Overlords...

[Blizz98]

>Right Path

You advance as stealthily as possible down the long straightaway. As you go the explosive pops become less frequent and you can hear a variety of other noises, most notably the boisterous battle cries of what you assume to be some adventurer, and the gutteral sounds produced by draugr. The tunnel opens into a more natural cave system. Of course you weren't expecting...



This...

????: Now come on, is that all you got!
????: Ha! I could do this all day!!

Despite his boastings, there are an aweful lot of Draugr, you count around six, including the one he currently has in a headlock. Another observation you make is how he's wielding one of those newfangled handcannons that started appearing a few months ago. Quite interesting.

[Mr. Sunshine]

Where are you in relation to the adventurer?

If in a proper position, Shoot the headlocked Draugr in the back, then take aim at the others, staying in the shadows if possible.

[hypersheep]

>Wield the dagger. Fight the Draugr!

ALL OF THEM!
