Bjarik Steel-Arm made it to Windhelm and has approached Ulfric about joining up, so that'll be the next run of quests I work on. I'm really digging playing key sections of the game that I haven't seen at all before - both the Companions and the Stormcloaks are all new to me. (He might make a handsome werewolf further down the line, too...) Keeping in character, he wears a Stormcloak cuirass and goes bare-headed while in town, and dons steel armor and a horned helmet for battle & exploration. A guard in Whiterun made a snarky comment about him wearing Stormcloak colours, I lol'd. That two-handed steel axe arouses me, he can cleave foes in half with one blow, I'm loving it. He's been trying to save up for a first house, but couldn't resist spending a big chunk to enchant steel gauntlets with Fortify Two-Handed after finding a pair of iron ones. Naturally, they're now called Superior Steel-Arm Gauntlets...it'll be hilarious to call all his armor and weapons after his own name. I'm still trying to adjust to being non-sneaky, old habits die hard, plus the bonus damage helps while I'm still leveling him up. I think after a little more of a boost he's going to stride confidently everywhere without sneaking, and use a follower, I already have a few to choose from. Any suggestions for a good follower to use, or maybe just one that's less annoying and not underfoot all the time?

Nice. Much easier to adjust from a sneak to a tank Than the other way around.

Really stoned and watching South Park. I always forget how great this show is.

I don't have the Get Married trophy yet...my Khajiit has a huge crush on Balimund (she's a bit of a smithy in her own right), but hasn't found the nerve to sashay her magnificent tail in his direction as yet...I read that it's possible for him to die during dragon attacks in Riften, which would just be sad. She's a loner anyway, maybe my Nord will be more likely to settle down.

yea, she's very noble, a khajiit thief isn't ... she's also a bad ass in combat too... that chick from the companions also never dies after you finish the questline (i think you have to finish it), she's a good choice as well... i'd hate to fall in love with one of the good followers and see them die suddenly in combat... i usually only go after the ones that don't...

Good tip, thanks. Mjoll and my Khajiit did not get along at all, but she sounds like a perfect match for my Nord.

mjoll the lioness in riverwood... if you complete her quest, she becomes invincible, meaning, she'll never die... i married here with my tank warrior breton... she's a nord and my dude is the shortest class, it looks kind of funny lol...

Started a new file this weekend. Got me a big, muscled, typically blond Nord, named him Bjarik Steel-Arm. It's quite a rush to play a character so different than my sneaky thieving Khajiit. He only carries stuff he uses, instead of pocketing half the village like she does. So far he's using only a two-handed axe, a battleaxe and shield, fire destruction and the unavoidable bow & arrow. It's been a learning curve using two-handed weapons, but I like the up-close work. My Khajiit is very neutral politically, she hasn't taken sides at all and probably won't. So for a complete change, this Nord character will be rah-rah Stormcloaks, like he drank the blue Kool-aid. He's going to join Ulfric as soon as I can travel to Windhelm...damn, it takes a long time to travel anywhere at the beginning! So far I've only been sidetracked by the Dragonborn storyline and trying to save up enough money to buy a house. He's going to join the Brave Companions and maybe even the Bards College, neither of which my Khajiit has done...it's fun to see stuff I haven't played yet. Eventually, I'll do another file and play the other side of the political coin, but for now, I'm enchanted all over again.

so i took a few pics while on my mini vacation... might as well share them here with you guys... this is the hotel at the indoor waterpark... miles and miles of this shit... i got lost a few times... i took a few pics at cedar point with people, but not a lot that i'm going share here since there's no point in doing so... here's my landscaped shots instead... when we left, we were hit in the face with an epic sunset... so i snapped a bunch of pics on my way out... on the road home...

Actually, I'd like to see a new crime franchise that covers the criminal underworld for every country. Human trafficking in Slavic countries, general British thuggery, the IRA, people just generally being insufferable pieces of shit in France, etc. It would be pretty cool to have this international GTA spinoff, not made by Rockstar North, so it could release between GTA games.
