Roleplay ideas/suggestions

[Guest]

Hello,

 

So i was looking to start a new play through, but not sure what kind of char to go for...

I came across roleplaying characters, it sounds fun, but I have no idea how to go about that. Anyone some suggestions, tips, tricks?

You could check out the character build videos the Fudgemuppet channel on youtube put together. They usually don't use alternate start mods so they come up with a reason why the character was heading into Skyrim and got caught and taken to Helgen. The videos are entertaining if nothing else and have a lot of ideas on types of characters as well.

According to your RP, there are mod that are very useful.

 

I think vanilla vampire and werewolf are limited for the RP, you could try to instal mod to enhance the experience

https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/9717 better vampire and https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrim/mods/35470 moonlight tale are pretty good for that

really depends how deep in the modding hole you are

alternate start? perk overhauls?
needs mods? campfire? hypothermia?

 

alternate start and perk overhauls are a start and already contain some ideas for a playthrough

needs/camping mods are the next step in immersion (again depending on how far you want to go)

 

as far as ideas go... it's very personal choice as to what you'd like to see/play as

also the choice of what the story will be about at the time will determine the mods you need to make that happen

 

for example: a merchant character that makes the money off of selling dungeon relics

for that you might want some mods that change loot availability, allow for hiring some disposable followers to use as cannon fodder and pack mules... and maybe later on a slavery mod to start turning profit on raiding bandits?

 

a misanthropic outlaw/creature that is being hunted by literally everyone in skyrim and wants nothing more than to wipe out all people?

for that you might want a kill on sight mod (and tweak it a little) so that everyone tries to murder you, then maybe some mods that increase the number of travellers? another one to make the animals friendly?

 

you can either think of a story/character to play as and then pick the mods that make it possible or you can pick a mod and build the story around that
