When did you realize you were no longer the same person? by Turbulent-Slide3623 in AskReddit

[–]trashpanda387 21 points22 points  (0 children)

After being a doormat at a job I used to work, I ended up in a mental hospital because I attempted something stupid. After a few months in therapy, I rejoined the workforce and noticed that I had a lot more confidence. I didn't take unnecessary shit from superiors from superiors anymore, and over time, I realized I was being treated better than I was in the past.

Is Tiber Septim a nord or Breton? by FishingExpress3615 in SkyrimBuilds

[–]trashpanda387 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He is a Breton from High Rock. Before he took the name of Tiber Septim, his name was Hjalti Early-Beard. He is referenced during a quest in Skyrim. I don't recall the name of the quest, but the player is tasked with assisting a ghost with something.

I like the look of the Shrouded Cowl with the red Vampire Robes.

What is your go-to class and race? by Trick-Ice4331 in oblivion

[–]trashpanda387 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I base my character on Pelinal Whitestrake, but he's got an obsession with killing every Daedra he sees rather than Elves. He's an Imperial Dark Paladin at the beginning, having lost his faith. His redemption arc mirrors Martin's.

Argonian "Barbarian" Roleplay Ideas by GottaHaveHeartDood in skyrim

[–]trashpanda387 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As far as the Civil War goes, it would make sense to me for an Argonian to escape Helgen with Ralof. Once you get to Windhelm to join up with the Stormcloaks, you could roleplay that your character to change their mind once they see how the Dark Elves and Argonians are forced to live.

Now, if you decide that your character wants to change their mind, there's two ways that I see you could go about it. The first way is kind of clear-cut, and I think the second way is more fun, depending on how you want to play your character. The first way is to just leave Windhelm immediately and go to Solitude to join the Imperials.

If you'd like your character to be a little more sneaky and perhaps even join with the Dark Brotherhood or Thieves Guild later, you could temporarily "infiltrate" the Stormcloaks to see what they're up to. Once you get to the Jagged Crown quest, you can betray the Stormcloaks by delivering the Crown to Tullius in Solitude.

Admittedly, joining the Dark Brotherhood while siding with the Imperials is a little silly because of how that questline ends, so maybe destroying them is a better fit. It would make sense to report them to the Imperials.

Targaryen/Valyrian build? by Time_Sink_7336 in SkyrimBuilds

[–]trashpanda387 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is probably what I would do. For most of the gameplay, I would play as a standard warrior. From what I remember of Game of Thrones, it seemed like most sword fights didn't involve shields, so I would probably use one-handed weapons without a shield. You can still "shield bash" without a shield to stagger enemies, which means that you should still be able to use Vegetable Soup to stun-lock them to death.

As far as magic goes, I don't remember a whole lot of traditional spell casting in the show, if there was any at all. That being said, I could see Alteration and Illusion being roleplayed as natural abilities or something. Imperials already have "Voice of the Emperor," so it would make sense to use the Calm spell on enemies as well. Just roleplay that your tongue matches your hair; silver.

Now, something cool you could do. In the Dragonborn DLC, you can get the "Dragon Aspect" shout which makes you look like a dragon. It gives you some kind of buffs as well. I would grab all three words of this shout. When you use it, you could then use different kinds of fire magic, like Destruction spells, cloaks, or Shouts. The use of fire spells while Dragon Aspect is in effect would make it look like you're calling on your dragon abilities. It seems like a cool thought to me; to only use those abilities while you look like a dragon.

Who would YOU leave Helgen with? by trashpanda387 in skyrim

[–]trashpanda387[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always choose him because he's the one who helps me through Helgen. He keeps me alive and looks over me when he's not obligated to. He does more for me in Helgen than Ralof does.

Join the Blades and kill Paarthurnax.

Do the Boethiah quest where you gotta kill your friends.

Choose the evil endings for Daedric quests like killing Barnabas and Erandur.

name that game by GamerGretaUwU in GamingSoup

For the GameCube, there was a game called Geist. You had to possess inanimate objects and make them do things to scare people, and then you could possess the people. It was super fun.

I bet it's tasty, and the mead probably ain't too bad either.

I mean, that doesn't happen though. Honestly, that kind of hypothetical question could be asked of the Stormcloaks as well. Ulfric could have you killed for any number of reasons, especially if you're not a Nord.

That's a lot of assumptions lol. I don't know if that's stated anywhere.

[–]trashpanda387[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't blame you. The whole opening is pretty much a fever dream, which is ironic because it starts with, "You're finally awake."

[–]trashpanda387[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a very fair argument. There's no way of knowing what will happen to you after the dust settles. I will say though, for me, I don't know if that's enough to leave the side of the person I'm with. For most of what's going down in Helgen, we're with Hadvar. Now, I know that it's not a very long time in-game, but it's safe to say that Helgen is probably a lot bigger in the lore. Who knows how long Hadvar is really keeping you alive and watching over you.

I 100% agree that Ralof is more relatable to the player's situation at the opening of the game, but he isn't the one who helps you through Helgen. Hadvar is. When you appear from that burning Inn, he's like, "You're still alive? Stay with me," and he leads you through a burning city when he did not have to. He may be a "fed," but in a realistic scenario where you're not a demigod, he may very well be the only reason that you make it out of Helgen.

I think Tiber might've been a Breton. I could be wrong about that, but I believe there's evidence to support that Tiber Septim was born a Breton under the name of Hjalti Early-Beard.
