I very much liked Solstheim then. I like it now too, but it's a whole different feel than before. Sometimes I think I like it from Morrowind better. Bruma became home for my characters in Oblivion too, after the first couple of playthroughs. I've always played Nords since then, with only one brief try at an Altmer in Skyrim on the 360. That didn't work out so well.

It doesn't have to be a lot to write or do, it's what you make of it, and I like Lothran. :)

Yesterday morning Lothran went off his shift and spent the day hunting goblins in Plundered Mine as well as taking care of what nuisance resided by the door to Serpent's Trail. And no, he didn't find Sah there ;) Evening was spent as usual at Olav's Tap and Tack.

In the following days he will keep roaming the Jeralls and take care of what dangers that he can find. I reckon Silver Tooth Cave will also be paid a visit soon :)

Ten year anniversary



Blimey, krikey, O'Reilly. Has it really been a whole decade since I first started to play this game? Ten full years?
I suppose it has, judging by my join date at Bethsoft. I started to play in February 2007 and joined up in December the very same year in order to ask anyone who wanted to answer me how to fix the Abomb issue I had been suffering under for weeks, if not months. I tried to overlook it as long as I could but eventually I was desperate enough to start up my 56K modem and go online in hope to find the cure which thankfully I did. I remember falling on my knees and thank whoever was listening when the animation worked properly again... :P


Lothran was not called Lothran initially. I gave him my real name but after some time I began to wonder if he didn't deserve his own name as he had grown his own personality by this point, something I had not expected. I remember thinking about it at work many times without finding something suitable, but then one day it came to me quite out of the blue; Lothran. Of course! There it is! And the rest is as they say history.


We have been on many adventures, Lothran and I. Though in the beginning we were sort of confined to the Imperial City on account of the computer I had at the time. It could play Oblivion on highest settings in dungeons and in the City which looked amazing, but going outside the gates provided stuttering like nothing else and my only option was to lower the settings, something I did not tolerate. So, while waiting for better and better graphics cards and more RAM, Lothran and I roamed the City for weeks, exploring every nook and cranny and completing quest after quest.


While Lothran has visited the Aetherius plane once or twice because of my carelessness and I've had to do a few reinstalls for reasons I have long forgotten, I have not once restarted him. While different from when he woke up in prison he is literally still the very same character I started a whole decade ago, the only thing that has changed is the computer I play the game on. I like Lothran and the history we have and I wouldn't dream of starting him over, create another character or stop playing the game. It's all too valuable to me.

We have been through so much, done so many things and as long as I can get hold of a computer that plays Oblivion I reckon we still have many hours left together ^_^

Congratulations to both of you. I couldn't stand to play only one girl for 10 years, myself.... I like Lothran better without purple hair for sure!

Congrat's... that's long time with one character... Like Sere I don't think I could do that.

Not really. I think the best way to celebrate is to keep business as usual. Maybe slay a few extra goblins :)

Me too. For some reason I thought it was a good idea in the beginning :D

Thanks :)

It certainly is limiting so I definitely understand most people don't do this.
