I vote GO FOR IT Mr.Bootler, doesn't seem like it's any advantage being human or undead at that point. You still have to go through the same struggles, not to mention you play will be in the dark more than daylight. ;)

That was my thought as to why I think it'd be moot. :)

It doesn't sound like an advantage to me Kane.. I had put in no vampire starts, but as long as you aren't a VP Lord to start or left att the Castle, It should be fine.

Ah, I missed that in the framework. No worries! My character will just have to be corrupted later. :)

Jeez, I can't even FIND the framework, let alone anything in it. I went looking for it last night but got lost someplace between New Jersey and Halifax. It worked out fine though, because by now I haven't a clue what I wanted it for...

Anyway, I don't think it's an advantage as long as it's like Areial says.

So with only one other suggestion that no one picked up...Dawnguard it is

OK, so other than time.. and tweaking the rules some, does that look good to everyone? If I've mangled something let me know..

Speaking of time... 80 hrs

and When to Start? If we Start Midnight on the 16th March ( your local time ) and end the 15th of April Midnight, this gives a little over a week to do a practice run and a full month + a day to actually to the run.. with all weekends included... Or we can go the next week.

1 follower and one Dog allowed...

All general rules to DiD apply - unless round rules state different
Spoiler: click to toggle


* Alternate Start- But not one that starts you as a Vampire, Member of Volkihar or Member of Dawnguard ( we have not discussed home ownership start, but as that's usually a NO, II will keep that as a no unless we all agree that it's fine.
*Using a Multiplier on your chosen difficulty
Spoiler: click to toggle

*Points
Spoiler: click to toggle

Books........25 pts each 50 bonus for full sets
Spoiler: click to toggle

Quest items ( some faction only items have been removed, let me know if I did not catch everything!)
50 points each ( I know some are harder to get than other, but those are tied to quests anyway, that you get points for!

Spoiler: click to toggle



*Death with Consequences
-You may save at an INN of your choice right after reaching lvl 10.. you may Fast Travel to that Inn, save ( I recommend two saves ) and then fast Travel back to where you were.. or as close as you can get
- You may not us that time to sell, buy, store or craft items.
- 5,000 point penalty for use..per use!
- Not required.. you may start over with whatever Alternate start you used the first time.. I would suggest a save as soon as you "appear" at that chosen place!

* Mods
- you may use mods, any mod that gives you an "advantage" must be balanced by one that gives a disadvantage
example
Spoiler: click to toggle


This is what we have... if I missed something that you know we changed let me know.. as my head is all fluffy.

A couple of questions there... maybe... I'm tired, and I'm already having trouble remembering them, eh? :)

Okay, first one... No fast travel, I get that, but what about fast travel to the place where you already are? The main reason for doing such an inane thing, is to recover a horse that has wandered away, and that may be the only way to recover it.

Second one: Likely gone forever. Instead, I'll ask this... "Summon Wrathman" what the hell are those books, where do they come from, and does that one really summon John Travolta?

Just an FYI, I'm definitely going with Bretony Layne for my char, and difficulty will remain at Master. She's currently level 15 (approx) and has had two lethal encounters. Both were with Daedroth... Nothing else seems to be able to touch her.

All I gotta do is avoid the daedroth...

FT in place to return your misplaced horse is fine.

All the conjuration books are found in the Soul Cairn but I don't think John will appear.

Hmmm I might have to ask Devin if he mind summoning...I seriously forgot about all those new spells.

This looks like fun, as I arrive late to the party. :)

I haven't played Skyrim for months, but I think I'll try to knock off the rust, and enter a character. Probably some sort of squishy-hybridy-mage type, like a "Witchhunter," which is basically a bow-toting battlemage. A bow-user seems appropriate to the quest line.

I'll be using the same load order as I used in the last competition here, since I haven't made any changes since then. I'll dig it out and post with my character entry.

For me, it'd be Bailey's and Brandy with a dash of hot chocolate or coffee... In fact, I think I'll go fix me one of those right now... :cheers:

I'm going to make this as complicated as I can because it's the question I forgot earlier...

Okay, so you've spent an hour and half creating your character. Molding the nose, chin, mouth, eyebrows, and shaping the eyes to get that perfect look you have in your mind at the start.

Some time goes by, and you find yourself in the Ratway, you know there are points available for surgery, but... there is nothing at all that you want to change in order to earn those damend points.

Bearing that in mind, how much do you have to change to get the points? I mean, do you have to go full transgernder or become a draugr, or will a haircut and dye job do the trick?

Richard I came out with one more + than - so it's good as far as I can tell..

About AFT.. even if you use no other follower you get stuck with Serana, which I consider worse than not having a follower at all. Their are a couple of places in the DG quest-line that she sometimes gets stuck at.. and I mean in the walls or floor or other goofy places. You can "shout" her out.. but it's easier to use AFT to move her silly butt. It's not a "game play" advantage, it's a time and sanity thing.

I lost 2 hr's of play to her getting stuck in a niche... had to reload a 2 hr old save.. so it doesn't include the time to try and get her out otherwise.
