I play oblivion for about 2 years now, and it never seems to bore me. I first played Vanilla and didnt really knew about good mods. Then when vanilla started to bore me, i tried the well known OOO. This mod changed the whole experience for me. I slowly started to use more mods, causing Oblivion to turn into a living breathing world. The thing that really draws me into an MMM+OOO game is the fact its a world, not just a bunch of monsters waiting to get killed. The player really has to go out to make the best of it. This is also what keeps me from really playing other games. They don't draw me in that much as oblivion does.
Characters I played with
Roy: A breton mage. He lived in the relative safety that is vanilla oblivion. Like a true vanilla character, he got really good equipment from just fighting bandits. Also did all the quest with ease. Even had possession of a 100% chameleon suit. all in all, boring. Skills:
- Conjuration
- Restoration
- Illusion
- Alteration
- Destruction
- Mysticism
- Alchemy
Roy: A Redguard fighter that lived in the harsh world of OOO and later the even harsher world of MMM for OOO. This is the first character i used big mods for. He turned into a Daedric armor wearing god-character with high levelled skills and 76% reflect spell. Probably the 300+ hours put into him could have something to do with that. Skills:
- Blade
- Block
- Heavy Armor
- Mercantile
- Restoration
- Alchemy
- Armorer
(another) Roy: Another Breton Mage that turned into god due to a combination of the mods Sorcery's toll¹ and Midas Magic. Both mods are awesome, but since the former disables spell levels, my character could use high level midas spells very easily. Everytime this character saw an enemy...NUKE. Skills are the same as the first character.
¹(Sorcery's toll is a mod that uses an expanded morrowindesque magic system with attribute damage when casting high cost spells.)
(yet another) Roy: A Redguard battlemage. he was born under the atronach. He did not play smoothly in my opinion so i ditched him. Skills
- Conjuration
- Destruction
- Light Armor
- Blade
- Alteration
- Alchemy
- Armorer
Lord Benendearu: A Dunmer Battlemage. My current character. He is the first character i really RP with. His role is (like his name says) a noble. In cities he is mostly calm, does not run really much and is dressed in normal expensive looking clothing, while his weapon is in storage. He is generally a nice guy, but a bit haughty. When adventuring, he is relentless, harsh in judgement and does not take attacks lightly. An attacker that survives him is either a fast runner, or a non NPC who do not really deserve death. (like a stray wolf cub or a mud crab someone saw the other day) He walks around in black elven armor custom enchanted to enhance intelligence and luck. When people attack this guy, he will first fight with a large hammer, but if it does not suffice, he will remember his motto: A lord does not have to do anything by himself. Then he will summon at least 2 creatures to finish the job for him. Skills:
- Conjuration
- Alteration
- Alchemy
- Blunt
- Light Armor
- Armorer
- Speechcraft
