Playing the game one-handed.

No. It's not what you're thinking...!

Spoiler

I used the Amputator mod to remove one forearm.

Essentially, she's a thief who had a hand taken as punishment in her youth, and ended up having to take the entire forearm off due to infection. Now she's an illusion-based con artist.

It's been really interesting restricting what she can and can't do. No two-handed weapons, dual-wielding, two-handed spells, bows, crossbows, smithing, alchemy etc. I wasn't sure how well it would work, but so far it's one of the most fun playthroughs I've done. And the arm wraps from the Dark Apprentice mod work perfectly as a stump bandage. So do Magecore's silk gloves when she's infiltrating the upper classes.

Checking out some multi-actor animations.

Non-players off the green, please.

I wish I knew how to tone down that orange glow.

Getting my paperweight back.

Spoiler

That's for taking what's mine.

Just admiring the view! Switched to Community Shaders and it's really nice.

Not as famous as the headless horseman . . .

. . . the headless, horselessman.

Are you using a reshade?

Which weather mod do you use? I use Azurite III and Azurite Weathers.

Nope, no reshade only community shaders Kovir Preset, which uses Azurite III CS.

Thanks.

Ah, one of those using the jiaye version. That explains why I've never tried Kovir.

Electrocuting some bandits.

Playing a Khajiit spellsword is more fun than I initially thought.

Every time I come back to Skyrim, my Night Elf obsession takes over and I try to make the most "Night Elf" character I can.

Collecting the Daedric artefacts again.

Dawnbreaker secured. Next up Azura's (or possibly the Black) Star.

Generally, I've just simply been playing the game, doing quests, and enjoying the sights and sounds of the world. It's actually been really refreshing to have no sexlab, ostim, zaz, devious devices etc. I've still got hundreds of mods installed, of course, but it's a more "vanilla" game than I've done in a long, long time.

I'd almost forgotten that Skyrim is about more than just getting shagged!

I finally finished the game 100% again after the Dragonborn DLC with Serana Dialogue Expansion, so before killing this character and starting another one, I decided to do a vacation photo shoot all over Solstheim with the annoying vampire brat.
