Hay guys not sure if this should have went in the game forum or not but anyway I have some ideas for Skyrim character builds based on characters from Malazan, I already have a Jaghut Tyrant (Orc warrior, two handed weapons, heavy armor and a focus on ice magic and "mind control" illusion magic) but I also really want make some more, specifically the Tiste. Here's some ideas I had:

Tiste Andii

Race: Dunmer (with the skin as dark as I can get it)

Skills: Battlemage style build

Two Handed (I'll use the Ebony Blade or an enchanted Ancient Nord Greatsword)

Heavy Armor (Daedric armor, maybe Ebony Mail)

Magic: Now this is where I have a problem, what kind of magic does Kurald Galain actually grant? I'v heard it being described as necromantic before so would necromancy fit?

Tiste Liosan

Race: Altmer (gold skin and silver hair, I know it should be the other way round but it's close)

Skills: Paladin style build

One Handed (Dawnbreaker will be my sword of choice)

Light Armor (Glass or maybe Stalhirm would fit)

Block (I'll be using a shield, Spellbraker will suffice)

Magic: the closest thing Skyrim has to "light magic" is Alteration so I'll be using a mix of that and fire magic)

Tiste Edur


Race: Dunmer (left with the natural grey skin)

Skills: Ranger style build

One Handed (Unfortunately there is no spears in Skyrim so I cant really decided what sword to use)

Light Armor (Armor of the Old Gods fits great as the Edur wore animal hides adorned with fetishes and trinkets)

Archery (Bow of the Stag Prince or Forsworn bow)

Magic: Illusion (right?)

So these are my ideas and I would LOVE if any of you guys had any idea on how to make them better/more faithful?

I think that there is a mod that lets you use spears in Skyrim.

Yea there is but I'm stuck using an XBox so mods are a no go unfortunately

You've just reminded me of the brilliance that is Skyrim.

Dawnbreaker was a great sword. I mostly used it with the Mace of Molog Bal. And Ebony mail.

Never thought to take a Malazan approach to the game. I might give it a re-play now.

Finishing Deadhouse Gate is basically the reason I started to replay the game lol

i've got a malazan marine build who's gotten pretty OP. i started focusing on one-handed and archery, cuz crossbows, sneak and light armour, and then got a few mods so i could toss around grenades. then i decided i'd make him a squad-mage too, and things got fairly ridiculous. still very fun but if you don't play on PC i guess you have to settle for spells as munitions

Yeah that dwemer explosives mod or whatever. I loved tossing around 'cussers.' Come at me bloody Imperial, boom, guy got Ranal'd. And there was much rejoicing.

What weapons/armor is he using? I have a few Malazan builds like my Jaghut Tyrant, and my Redguard assassin (Kalam) mage (Quick Ben) and Thief (Crokus)

[Sinisdar Toste]

well, armour changes day to day, but i use the enhanced dwarven crossbow and the dawnguard war-axe a lot because i like their look. honestly though, beyond that most of my equipment is from mods

[jonny_anonymous]

Thinking about making a Quick Ben build, Redguard mage and just go all out on all the magic?

[jonny_anonymous]

I recently made a Fiddlier based character and it is now my favourite, it's really fun.
