The Elder Scrolls: Vengeance of the Deep

Anyone ever played daggerfall? I only played it for a little, took so long to get a dos emulator running and even longer to run dagerfall on it. Never got far into it.

The Elder Scrolls: Vengeance of the Deep

Random useless fact but Dwemer ruins freak me out more than draugrs in a crypt :'D

This should be fun.

@Greenie

I think for me it was alyeid ruins in oblivion. So damnned spooky and dark, filled with undead and goblins. And the eerie blue glow and fog, way too spooky for me. At least there was noise in the dwarven ruins, no such luck in alyeid ruins, if there was noise it was so quiet you would not even know if you made the noise up in your head.

The Elder Scrolls: Vengeance of the Deep

Zevran the Enchanter and Igor the owl

Name: Zevran
Race: Breton
Sex: Male
Age: 20
Birthsign: The Atronach
Family Origins: Born to a fairly rich family in High Rock, he ignored everything save his studies, watching from a distance as his brothers and sisters led on with their boring lives. His family was above average, but not nearly powerful enough to be of any political or social concern.
Appearance:

Just under avrage height for a Breton, with fair and soft unblemished skin. His hair is short and often styled, the color a plantinum blonde. His eyes a striking blue. Never seen without his layered blue robes or his snow owl Igor.

Igor is the perfect example of a snow owl who has been overly spoiled. Perfect white feathers always where they should be, an almost snooty look in it's always observing eyes and a small metal collar hanging around it's neck that gently glitters with a minor detect life enchantment.
Equipment: Silver shortsword, silver dagger, thin chainmail shirt.
Misc. Possessions: Enough preserved food for two days, thee water skins, Preserved rodent meat ( for the owl ) Basic enchanting supplies, very basic alchemy supplies.
Favoured Skills:
Highly proficient: Enchanting / Alchemy
Somewhat proficient:Destruction / Alteration / Mysticism

Spell List:

Mysticism: Major life detection / Remote manipulation / Soul Trap / Dispel Other
Alteration: Oakflesh
Destruction: Hail Flare ( oblivion apprentice spell, 15 pts fire dmg 10 pts frost dmg )
Magika Drain (oblivion spell, drain 30 pts magika on touch )
History: Born to a fairly well off family, he never took to the normal mage life or even the normality of everyday. He instead enjoyed learning about magic and experimenting where he could, this is where his love of enchanting came from. When he was 10 he began taking lessons from the nearby mages guild. His lessons spanned multiple schools of magic, but his favorite by far was enchanting due to the freedom it gave him. Him being born under the sign of the Atronach seemed to make no difference, for his enthusiasm for magic led him to fix his problem with drain magika spells and magika potions.

For years he learned, distancing himself from his family unil he eventually stopped concerning himself with them all together. He spent 3 yearsnof his life traveling, and met his new freind Igor in skyrim, where a necromancer had been experimenting on animals. He quickly found his way into the ranks of the dwemer dig site, and cannot wait for his chance to learn about the extinct peopes and their magic.
Personality:
Quiet but very eciteable when it comea to magic. He enjoys reading, and anybody kind enough to deal with him long enough to get him to work.

He very much enjoys working on enchantments, and if somebody can bring him the materials, he will always domhis best to understand and create what is needed.

How is this?

Alright then, I will be working on a cs as soon as possible and will post it here when finished, do know I am being forced to write on a tablet though so there WILL be errors I may miss, but if I find them after I post I will edit and fix them.

One last thing, what is the stance on pets? A bird, owls or hawks, things of that nature.

The Elder Scrolls: Vengeance of the Deep

Alongside the fact I would like to see genbor's questions about magic answered, I would also like to know the stance on enchanted items if the created character is supposed to be an expert. Also, if magika is something to keep track of, does it influence enchanting?

The question about tracking magika usage intersts me greatly due to the fact Inplan onnmaking a character born under the oblivion sign of the atronach, a larger magika pool than normal, but no magika regen and a natural absorb spell effect.

That is actually a pretty good idea. A good few years after the angels arrive, the orcs arrive close behind and ready for war. This would provide another real element of plot, especially if one of the other roleplayers decide to use an orc as their character.

As for the rune based magic, magic in this universe is very heavily influenced by two things. The inherent magical ability of the race, and the personality of the person wishing to practice magic. For example, somebody who is hot headed and prone to overlooking details would be close in line with the element of fire, allowing them to much more easily control the element.

It was an old idea I never used for anything and something I am still looking to tweak before really using it completely, the only problem is that finishing up this kind of magic would require me seeing how people try to develop their characters around a magic system where magic that directly conflicts with their character's personality can be just as dangerous for the user as it would be for the targets.

Think of the period people call the " Golden age of piracy " There are gunpowder based weaponry such as cannons and gunpowder pistols. With the addition of magic gunpowder weaponry is much more versatile. If one can find the correct mage willing to help, or IS the correct mage, they can enchant the normal ammunition to grant added effects. Think slightly more advanced than medevil. I would not know the DnD era cause I really don't play DnD.

Well in my original interest check I said most fantasy races are fair game, as for orcs and other races like those It would all depend on how you wish to portray them. Such as the elves, I decided on only having 2 known races of elves, each having differences from eachother.

Wood elves are most often the height of humans or slightly shorter and are known for their accomplished archers. They are normally very xenophobic and stay hidden within their forests, while those who leave are most often young ones experiencing a sort of coming of age ceremony where they travel the world they live in.

High elves are normally a full head taller than most humans and are natural spellcasters. They are the definition of the stereotypical elf, high and mighty, arrogant to a fault but not without reason. Whatever a high elf deems worthy of doing is never out of reach.

So to answer your question, it all depends on how you want to portray your orcs and other races, seeing how early on the building process is I am sure we can make a place for them.
