Semi-Experienced Player

[Opperative]

since getting morrowind about a year ago on xbox i've player it loads and recently i got GOTY version containing bloodmoon and tribunal i've already played through the main storyline and bloodmoon story line as a breton mage/fighter with an small essence of a theif in there i also have many other characters ranging from level 1 - 20 i've played through most guilds on diferent characters and i have come to a point where i cant think of what to play next. So i was wondering if some of the Expert gamers of morrowind had ideas on what they think is a good custom class to go for i know customs are based on your own personal preferences i enjoy summoning i like magic but dont like using it as my main attack i prefer to be very defensive using magic to enforce my blade i normaly play as female characters even tho i'm a guy because it seperates me from the character and i find it easier to step into a role when i seperate myself from my character.
if anyone has any ideas on skills to choose that would make the game fun yet slightly challenging on most of my other chars i can-triped alchemy and used the money to boost myself and essensialy made the game boring. the character i'm looking to play should be based around....

being able to do house hlaalu quests (havent ever completed these)
Fighter with magic to support
able to play the game with some ease but still have it challenging

i dont want to know how to start the char off and what to do but i've like suggestions on: stats, names(i can never think of suitable names), class name(same as char names i spend ages and never think of anything good) and sign

i hope i havent rambled on too much and i hope that some of you can help and thanks in advance to any replys.

Are you playing on a PC? If so, there are literally hundreds of mods you can add-on that include new quests, new shops, new classes, new items, spells, landmasses, towns, etc. Just check the sticky thread at the top for more info.

Missed that, obviously. Sorry.

How about a character specialising in stealth that only uses a longbow/crossbow and dagger as weapons. And maybe forbid yourself to do any kind of enchanting with the exception of ease-of-use rings such as CE water breathing, water walking etc. However, no uber defensive or offensive enchantments on weapons or clothing.
That is kind of what I'm doing right now actually. I created a Bosmer Assassin/ mage who relies on her wits, sneak ability and sharp shooting (not to mention illusion, and some hand-to-hand combat). No enchantments, nothing flashy, very low key. She is a lot of fun to play.

hmmm.........interesting i like that idea alot cept not with the stealth aspect since i dont like the very small variaty of light armors a stealth orientated character would use i'm more of a medium armor fan myself i love the royal gaurd armor and Stahlrim armor and i dont think that a stealthed theif using medium realy fits together properly and would spoil the fun. but i'm realy just looking for what other people think would be fun skills to take as a class since i've run out of inspiration i've had all sorts of chars : rangers, Paladins, Knights, Mages, warlocks, assassins, theifs and i nolonger have the inspiration to think up new chars all the ones i can think up now are just like the ones i've made before and i get bored before i've left seyda neen.

I have
-Morrowind for XBOX
-Morrowind GOTY for XBOX
-Might have Morrowind for pc (did get it at one point but pc couldnt handle it) i'll try find it since i've got a new pc now. What mods would you recomend?

[dragon wench]

lol! There are many, many different mods
The sticky at the top of the page (here: http://www.gamebanshee.com/forums/sh...ad.php?t=31850) lists a good number of them, it really depends on your interests, playing style etc. Just be aware that some require Tribunal and/or Bloodmoon, so make sure you only install those that do not need the expansions in order to run.

Well personally... Argonian Bard.... i liked that character quite much..

But as for medium armor... no it wont spoil the fun.. well atleast not for me.. Yes light armor is good but still those light armors look quite crappy on my eyes.. and i just love bonemold combined with some other armor pieces...

But back to main thing.. Personally try those things that you think that you would hate but you havent tried those... who knows perhaps you will like those anyway.. or hate.. well it is worth trying..

[Opperative]

I took aspects from what Dragon said and from wrath since i couldnt decide on armor no armor it shall be i've never played with unarmored since i hate it since i cant use sheilds but i'll try

Character name: something female something Bosmer ? any ideas?
Class name: any ideas

Speed
Agility

Major
Unarmored
Marksman
Illusion
Sneak
Security

Minor
Short blade
Acrobatics
Athletics
????
????

this char would use stealth and speed rather than brute force.
take enemies out from a distance and if they get to close use stealth to eliminate them with help of illusion since with unarmored he/she would be slaughtered in close quarters. with athletics and acrobatics levels may increase bit faster than i'd like but i think to go with the speed part of the char athletics is a key skill

Any feedback would be great especialy on the last 2 skills and the names

[Wrath-Of-Egg]

Well, this is what I used to create my new character, if it helps at all
And I just realised it is startlingly similar to what you have listed above, lol! .

Bosmer Assassin

Acrobatics +5)

Custom Class: Shadow Mystic

Birth Sign: Atronach

It is of course your decision, but I would advise against selecting athletics and acrobatics as skills because you level up so easily and quickly in those. My character is only level 5, and she already has 45 in acrobatics because I'm always jumping while walking.

[Wrath-Of-Egg]

Yes that is true.. but since Operative dont have any skill wich would rise endurance fast leveling would give some extra Health.. and since he/she has only short blade wich arent know for high damage and you can get only decent shortblades after playing quite long time.. Or rushing through some factions and mainquest.. but still that Extra health from leveling fast wont be realy unbalancing... since you will meet though monster.. yes you will turn god but that wont happen any sooner than playing pure melee character.. it could be even later...

Lady would be my choise.. but then Atronach for magicka would be lot better in later game.. and ofcourse in beginning when you can cast more paralyze spells and invisibilty and other good illusion spells..
