Tomthetank scuttlefish Tomthetank scuttlefish Tomthetank A shadow scale may be gracing the land of skyrim..... Omg aren't they the Dark Brotherhood argonians?? Or am I thinking of something else... Never explored the dark brotherhood side of the game, but looking up the wiki real quick it would seem that, that is the case. Can I use a screenshot that may or may not have third party cosmetic mods as my picture? Argonian raptor talons, horns are forever, and agronian skin textures. Really?! the Dark Brotherhood was one of the most interesting parts of the game! The only thing I remember about shadowscales was that one of the argonians in the sanctuary said that he was one... I didn't know they had a presence outside of the dark brotherhood. I see no harm in it, as long as whatever it is still makes sense in-universe. Well basically they were made up of any argonian born under the sign of the shadow. They are taken at birth and trained to become assassins for the king. Some times they start wars, other times they finish them. The order is practically extinct thought so I may have to make him a regular assassin, or thief. Well the horns and skin tones are fine, the first makes horns visible through helmets and the like, skin tones is just that more skin color options at creation, I picked a nice black. The talons may be lore breakings, it gives argonian's jurrasic park raptor talons. Purely cosmetic but im not sure if that was a real thing or not. Hey, I recently started my first playthrough as an Argonian but haven't made it as far as the Brotherhood quest line yet... does this actually show up in Skyrim other than in flavor text? Will I get to learn new things?! I've been eager to explore things in this RP that are not accessible to the player as Dovakiin... considering playing a Thalmor agent!

I'd assume falkreth has something to do with it. Id test it myself but my computer has this issue that it will play skyrim for 20ish minutes before it says "nah bruh we are turning off" It used to do this, I thought i had fixed it but now its back :/

I think you're in the clear. Actually looks a bit more realistic than the in-game talons...

That'd be interesting! Let's hope there aren't too many Nords in the RP who would want to beat you up!

Since we are just starting i'm shooting for leather armor, maybe theives guild, bandolier, and a dagger or two.

I just spent almost an hour (I have no shame) posing my character and getting the lighting right (and shooing away the NPCs getting in the shot) but I think I finally made a screenshot that I'm satisfied with.

I've got no idea why, I'll take one, likely crappy but you will see the character and then make my way to the guild and try to play into the armor....

All I had to create was an ebony dagger but it's not even in the cropped version that I put in her profile.

Bah... I'm stuck with Skyrim on my console, so i won't be able to take a screenshot that way... On the other hand, there isn't a whole lot of variation in the look of the Thalmor, considering their gear tends to be standard issue, though I was thinking as an agent instead of a grunt I might have the freedom to incorporate a little customization. mrgreen

Nia Phoenix scuttlefish Alias Facade Maybe a training room or a trial tournament to try out the system is in order? I'd love to see what you've got! Yeah, I was telling Nia it might be a fun idea to turn it into a tourney, but since I'm already doing the Pazaak table I don't want to take too many projects on at the moment. I think I'll just make a beta test thread so that people can try it out and give feedback, and work out balancing issues etc, but not allow the combat system to delay the opening of the RP. After all, I'd rather have people focus on the story and RP, not the PvP! Talk to Rahl - He's great at running the Tourney's - and the training room has been pretty quiet - maybe we can make it a special event or something and he can work out the details with you and run it - since he's already done one battle system, maybe he can help iron out the kinks too! xd If you two need someone to help run it I have plenty of spare time on my hands. Also you will definitely have a stealthy roguish archer joining the rp wink

I've never played it on the console so I don't know, but I thought there was a way to take screenshots with the 360? I don't quite remember. I haven't used my 360 for anything other than a DVD player for a while, I hate to admit... Hmmm, a plainclothes agent posing as a commoner? That'd be exciting, especially if you're starting in a city like Windhelm. Spy characters are always fun to play.
