What would your career be in The Elder Scrolls?
- Thread starter aXFireXHeartXa
- Start date
Dovakin Non Profit Organization. Take Younglings on Dragon rides, take care of Dragon eggs and use the tourism to build a School and Hospital for the families for the Soldiers Lost in the War......Too real?
A monster slayer, witcher style.
I like money, and I like killing monsters. And, well, I hate other people.
Perfect.

One of the Aldmeri diplomats probably. I have spent most of my life as the eternal 'foreigner'.
Even in my home country (Australia), most people think I'm foreign because - as a result of all the different countries I've lived/worked in - my accent is quite a peculiar breed of London-meets-Aussie-meets-Irish-meets-something.
I guess the horrific thing is that in Skyrim two of my main characters hate the Aldmeri with equal passion - one a Conan-esque Nord freedom fighter, and another a 'General Khale' (from Willow) brutally merciless Imperial oppressor. If they saw me on the street the Nord would cleave me in twain, and the Imperial would probably shield bash me off a cliff.

I'm going with toymaker. Especially since there's an endless market for it, and my customers can't die (until some weirdo mods it in).

I'd probably do the same since I'm sick of seeing the two sides smug with their own filth as we have ulfric's side being racist against other species and the Empire who laud over their superiority and banning worship of Talos and having Thalmor as their means of rooting out the believers and either killing them on sight or locking them up forever and while it's all a video game the actual act of what they are doing disgusts me which is why I tend to kill all Thalmor on sight since the game doesn't allow deep discussions into convincing them in what they are doing is wrong on all kinds of levels.
Also the Blades since they want me to kill paarthurnax the very dragon who teaches the Thuum to mankind and in turn taught me and helped me save everyone and yet they are so ungrateful and idiotic to not see that I just saved their hides and for once would let me say a word in letting him live but since the game isn't that deep it pretty much means I can't join the blades in killing actual evil bad dragons from killing people.
Some sort of adventurer I'd guess. But I'd spend most of my time in preparation, like finding out all about the tomb I'd be travelling to, getting an enchanted sword that works well against whatever I'd be fighting, stocking up on all sorts of potions including healing, mana, and invisibility in case I needed to leg it out of there. I'd also see if I could travel with a group who was passing by the tomb.
I'd probably try to become a disciple of Meridia so I could help to purge the evil fromt he world. Dawnbreaker would sure as hell come in handy too.
I want to be a weather forecaster who slowly loses it and starts to believe that argonians are secretly controling every faction
Depends. I would at least give an honest attempt at being a mage. Unlocking the arcane secrets and attempting to gain immortality and eternal youth. Might try finding Sheogorath, my constant swinging from Lawful Evil and Chaotic Good might just allow me to somehow convince him that if he were to give me eternal youth that I would be the source of a great many situations that he could derive entertainment out of.
Of course I would be the darkest mage Tamriel has seen rise in a long time. And I wouldn't have to even become a criminal, don't dress in necromancer robes, and don't let anyone see me using necromancy if I have to use it. I can just practice on the countless bandit hideouts that litter Nirn. Seal all of the exits in a way that would take a while to open unless you know exactly how to, and go to town with my horrible, dark, twisted experiments. Maybe even some research into eternal youth if I can't convince Sheogorath to help me.
If that didn't work out, I would probably go on to be a blacksmith. As a cover. I would in actuality be a thief. Breaking into the houses of those who do not share the same worldview as me. By that I mean those who are on the other side of the whole "civil war" thing. So I would probably hang out in cities that support Ulfric Stormcloak. Tons of houses to break into.
Steal from the rich and give to the poor. I would be a sort of Robin Hood figure. I would even have an iconic way of dressing. Black robes that do not hinder my movement, with a giant white eye painted on my chest and back. "Watcher." I would be called. Judge of the greedy and giver to those in need. I would then change clothes into a generic thief outfit, and steal back from the poor, keeping whatever I like for myself. Except for food I guess, and money if I can help it...Like I said, I switch between being Lawful Evil and Chaotic Good.
Probably going to give an honest to god try at being a dark mage though. Sounds way more fun. And hell, if I gain enough power, I might even raise an army of darkness to overthrow all known forms of government, and rule as the Overlord of Tamriel. Maybe even Nirn if my power and influence can spread far enough.

Battle mage for hire. You know--plate mail, menacing cloaks, storms, lightning bolts. If managing high voltages in plate mail sounds like a bad idea to you, then I'm glad you are not an employee at Bethesda, and my enjoyment of Elder Scrolls will continue unabated. Maybe when I retire, I'd could be one of the guys on High Hrothgar.
