If you do the Dark Brotherhood quests, you get an immortal demon horse. Really useful for those "My god, my horse just charged a giant" moments.

Also, horses should reappear next to you if you fast travel somewhere (excepting into walled cities, then they appear in the stables).
Yeah I know it's just I'm roleplaying a pretty heroic guy so I think I'm going to wipe them out and I'll join the Dark Brotherhood on another save. When I lost my horse I think what happen was it got killed and I couldn't find the body.


in Skyrim there is no clear cut good or evil. but what you are doing is correct role playing. thats what Skyrim is a bout...there is no right or wrong really there is only what you as your character would do. and thats they way rpg's should be

My character is a warrior/mage/wanderer smartass that dosn't go dungeon crawling without an ally.

Also used to read tons of books but has learned to appraise them.

Oh yeah, I pretty much never use my horse on my Orc character. If I need to get somewhere fast, I always just go into Beast mode. It's much, much faster than the horse and with Hircine's Ring, I have a backup in case I actually need it.

My character doesn't go anywhere without her wife, Mjoll the lioness, ever since they got married. I've even told mjoll to wait a couple of times, while I scout out ahead, since she can't sneak. I always come back for her though. I'm even worried about her when she isn't there XD

What else...

Oh right, she woudln't steal anything. This is because of her wife as well, who dislikes the thief guild.

She collects those red spinning orbs you get from centurions, because I believe there's a mission to build something with them. Even though I've not seen any talk about this mission or has it. XD She has six of those.

I kill Falmer. All Falmer. Everywhere. If I see a Falmer, he's dead. Ever since my Wood Elf witnessed a massacre they inflicted on a family living in a Lighthouse near Winterhold, he's hated Falmer with a passion and will hunt them down to the last any time and any place he finds them.

My character never sells gems and unenchanted rings. It's just, this game has turned me into a hoarding magpie.

also is alchemy obsessed
can't walk by a plant without harvesting, chases butterflies over miles and looks in every barrel for ingredients

My character drinks every kind of alcohol that he can get his hands on, also he has a bad habit of shooting people in the taint with arrows laced with fire. But other than that hes honest and he also has a bad habit frenzying people in the middle of a crowded place and going "DANCE PUPPETS DANCE!!!!!!!!"

Leave no loot behind. I hit up Mzulft and made 4 trips (hi, Sven? your new name is "packmule") bringing all the dwarven stuff back to smelt, only to find that half of it was unsmeltable. Oh, and I'm a light armor person, so I'm now thinking of getting the Dwarven armor perk just to use all the bars I made.

I also have a tendency of shooting my companions with Soul Trap-laced arrows, but that's because they're retarded and don't think "Hey, this guy with the bow, all sneaky and stuff just killed that guy ahead, but now his buddies are looking for us. CHAAAAARGE!"

And if I could without guard aggro, I'd use those nice dragon shouts at the people who doubt I have the power.

Also, alchemy mats. I'm now looking a flowery bushed in RL and thinking "purple mountain flower".

I took Lydia out and shot her in the face because I found her sitting at a table with my husband. Then I hid her body under a glacier.

I think I may have issues.

Whenever I see a table with food and silverware on it,I feel the urge to either jump on it and kick everything off the table,or just shout it away.

I also never sell weapons and armor I loot,I just stockpile it into a chest.If ever there's a mod in which you can get more than one companion,I'm pretty sure I'll be able to equip at least 10 of them with pre-existing armor and weapons,and forge enough for 10 more with the spare lingots,dragon bones/scales and dwemer metal lying around.

My Nord is a poor confused fellow that has no idea what is going on. He wakes up in the back of some wagon being carted to his death.

After escaping he discovers he has a compulsive need to collect absolutely any book he sees, regardless of whether or not he already has it.

He is also a fairly brave (or insane... which I feel is more likely) fellow, chasing down dragons and other nasties. Furthermore, the moment he enters any sort of mine or sacred burial place, he immediately starts downing the booze and attacking everything that isn't him.

He also likes to pick flowers.

My character Ra'Naia Faye, has a truly terrible problem with guilt. She is Khajiit, a thief during her time in Cyrodil and now she has renounced her terrible ways. She does not steal any more and she stays the hell away from Riften unless absolutely necessary.

After the whole Markarth incident she has felt incredibly bad about Skyrim. She came to Skyrim to escape her life of crime in Cyrodil and yet she finds herself dragged into increasingly bizzare plots and finds herself forced to act on the crazed will of others. She has a strong sense of morality and although she takes followers along with her, she feels the need to protect THEM at any cost.

She also suffers an awful lot of prejudice and still finds people who call her a "sneak thief" or a "milk drinker" this hurts her deep inside even though she doesn't show it. She has an incredibly strong sense of morality and will kill if innocents are endangered but she will always hesitate, the arrow sometimes nocked for just a moment too long. She risks harm to herself when she thinks too much about others.

But yeah, she didn't feel bad abut killing Grelod the Kind, not in the slightest!

That ***** had it coming. Just why does she insist on sitting in your own bedroom eating your food when she has her own room? Shouldn't she be busy... doing whatever she does around the house?

I had that, I eventually forced myself to load up and sell them all (which required trips all around Skyrim)

I ended up with enough money to buy and decorate a house, with a few Gs in the chest.

I really love those jewels.

OT: I've taken to checking every single person's inventory, and I'm generally more likely to steal something if there's less of a chance of getting it.

My character likes a challenge.

Since I got the Kyne's Peace shout, I don't kill wild animals. I just shout at them and everything is fine.
You know when climbing the 7000 steps to High Hrothgar there are those 10 thingamajigs you can read about the Voice? Well, read them and you get an active effect that makes animals not run away from you, or attack you as far as I know. And I think it's permenent as long as you don't kill any animals.

OT: Walking. If he isn't following someone that is running or if he isn't in a fight, he is walking. Perhaps not so much a quirk as, umm, something else, but meh.

Same here I dump them all into the cauldrons and chests inside the thieves guild vault.

It's official my Argonian hates horses. He keeps Unrelenting Shouting them off the throat of the world. They deserve it for being equine scum.

edit: Also I burn my victims bodies after I kill them less evidence that way.

Whenever I see a lone bandit, or a lone anything at all, I just have to mess with it. I usually sneak up on it, get as close as possible, and use a full power fear shout right in its ear. Or if it's asleep, I unrelenting force it awake and watch it fly. I also have this thing where I must have the absolute minimum in my inventory, unless there's something in it I want to sell. I also have a habit of pickpocketing back the money I just spent on training from the trainer. What? Don't look at me like that. I am NOT greedy.

My character refuses to have skin shown in his armor aside from hands and head. (And tail, he is an Argonian, that said, I don't wear gloves or a helmet)

I pick up every skull I come across (not troll skulls) to keep in a pile in a corner of Breezehome.

Major spoilers alert:
I also completed the Dark Brotherhood quest chain to assassinate you-know-who, despite having sided with the Imperial Legion. My character isn't sure what to make of that!

And I have to have one set of each armour, weapon and unique items I come across, unenchanted, even if I have an upgraded, enchanted version already.
