So I know a good portion of us that are here have played Skyrim. In fact, I'm probably the last to have gotten my hands on it. So, share your tales of adventure and conquest! Just, no major spoilers. Minor storyline elements are fine, since those may be necessary to tell your story, but stuff like how to beat a dungeon or where to find words and such, leave those out. If we want to spoil ourselves on that, we can go to a wiki. This thread, is for tales of ADVENTURE! Or just the time you murdered some random guy, if that's your thing.

My favorite story of something that happened to me, is this.
One day I was coming "home" to Whiterun. Can't remember what I'd been doing, but I had a ton of loot I needed to sort out, so I was headed for Breezehome. Well, about the time I got to my front door, the egotistical jerk, AKA Nazeem, started up a random conversation with me, AKA, insulting me. Well, I wasn't in the mood to chat, so I just went inside. But that wasn't good enough for Nazeem. Not content to be ignored, he followed me into my house and started insulting me all over again.
So, I did the most rational and appropriate thing anyone could do in such a situation. I decapitated him on the spot. Sent his head flying right back onto the picnic table at the back of the room. Of course, Lydia and Faendal immediately started screaming murder so loud that a city guard ran in a few second later and started attacking me. The guard went down in seconds from all three of us pounding on him, but then Lydia and Faendal both attacked me at once, from either side, and I was the next one down. Apparently though, they were still loyal to me in some twisted way, and started in on each other for killing me!
I didn't get to see the end thanks to the reload timer. Wish it had a "Press Any Button to Continue" prompt rather than automatically reloading. After the reload, Nazeem apparently got the message, cause he wasn't in my house anymore.
It might only be a PC bug, but if an NPC is talking to you when you go into your house, they follow you in. And then half the time start talking about how busy they are, and that you should leave them alone.

-o-Havik-o- There is a Orc Strong hold by Markoth I think, were you meet a Orc who says he used to be a adventure, but now he serves his chief, you can try to get him to come with you, by brawling persuasion, or intimidation. Persuaded him and pretty much said "Stop making punk a** excuses and lets go."
He had the best response ever, something along the lines of "What am I doing talking in circles like a women, lets DO THIS!"
I did paraphrase a bit, but still...
I know what you mean about all the stuck up people... I punch people way to often. But is he the same as the Old Orc? Anyways, my problem is that running a heavy armor knight type character, I want a light armor ranger backup, which is why I've just kept Faendal around. Outfitted him in full Epic Elven armor bow sword and shield, and using console commands to keep him on equal level to me, he seems to hold his own fairly well. Speaking of Faendal, what is your preferred method in the letter delivery quest? Give the fake letter and lie, go to the other guy and get their letter, then deliver it, or give the fake letter and tell the truth? I find it much more satisfying to give her Sven's letter and tell her Sven wrote it than to go the roundabout. It's just so much more sinister than getting Faendal's fake letter. (I'd love to see if you can deliver both by pickpocketing them though.) ~ As for punching people, I'm always tempted to shield bash the guy who says he should bash your face in every time he sees you.

I am not sure about the side quest your talking about, so I have no answer.
As for preferred methods of destruction though, I do have a thief character who uses illusions, and hitting a guard with it, or the person you want dead with the corresponding level of fury spell needed to make them kill every one, is the funniest thing ever.

And healing spells to keep them alive while they do it, right? I killed everyone in Whiterun one time, minus the essentials and children of course. Again, it all started with Nazeem. All my rampages in Whiterun seem to start by decapitating Nazeem. After killing everyone, I battled four essentials for about an hour before I finally gave up and just reloaded the game myself, cause they weren't ever going to kill me. People say that Daedric is the best armor, but after I made myself some epic steel plate, I don't have any trouble fighting anybody. Not even giants and mammoths.

My Orc is in Dragon armor on Expert difficulty... Fire balls still hurt pretty bad Q.Q

-o-Havik-o- Whats your difficulty? Btw a little trick I learned, if you make nothing but Iron Daggers, you smithing gets to one hundred SUPER fast. I play on Xbox though, so you know.
My Orc is in Dragon armor on Expert difficulty... Fire balls still hurt pretty bad Q.Q Not sure actually. I've been thinking about raising it though. It's probably on normal, or whatever is default. The advantage of a PC over console as I've found, once you get past the various annoying bugs, is modding. A lot of mods add features that should have been in the game in the first place, like more hotkeys, or sorted containers. My first mod installed was one that sorts containers like your inventory. Very useful.

Quick question ( since I normally just use the two chests you are allowed to have in White run with a fully upgraded house, or with just the house and the alch lab. )
You can purchase other homes in the other Holds correct? Whic one would be the better home to have? The white run one is a tad bit annoying.
@ Havik
Yeah, my friend told me that, and I said Exploits are for cheaters. Then I got tired of smithing large items and losing cash, so I just turn all of my pelts into leather strips, buy all the iron ore/ ingots, and I just started crafting them non stop. xD After about thirty minutes of spam crafting, I've got a level 65 in smithing on a level 14 character. xD
But Exploits are amazing now that I've found some. In the beginning, on 360, just sneak around behind the one dude ( The torturer's assisstant ) for about two hours straight, and you'll have maxed out sneak, and then just get Soul Trap from Farengar ( Balgruuf's court wizard. ) and just stand over a dead body spamming it. You won't get the soul, but you'll get the exp for it. xD Only about an hour and a half to max out conjuration. Too bad PC players have to sit there for ever to max the sneak. xD 360 players just need a rubber band and something else to do. xD

As always, finding the glitches. It's something when you're running every single piece of armor in the game at the same time, all enchanted, and weapons that hit for over a billion damage. One-hitting Alduin is always fun.
Then you have you Skyrim Space Program...
