    Updates with more Former Jobs and a new section, Hobbies!

    A very important part of a character. Good to see that this will continue to grow!

    Updated the Patron Gods section with the 'Whole Pantheon' and 'Other' options! Whole Pantheon means your character holds all the gods in their religion equally (excluding the Daedra, unless they're part of the main pantheon), whereas Other means your character worships a God from another race's pantheon (re-roll your Race, then roll for the resulting Race's God).

    It's funny that we always focus on one or two gods to worship when making a character, when they're all linked to each other so closely (well, the Aedra are linked to each other, Daedra probably less).

    Have you thought about the option of a character 'making their own pantheon'? Like worshipping a different race's god but connecting them to another. Or maybe even worshipping an amalgamation of a lot of different deities? Not sure how you'd implement it, but it could be interesting. And a character pushing the bundaries of religion is a brilliant backstory, and perfect for a normal person turned adventurer.

    Huh. Interesting idea, Zonnonn. I have *no* idea how to implement that, but it's definitely a cool idea.

    Why don't you play ESO?

    Lack of money and a strange distaste to MMOs since my Runescape days mainly XD

    Why, is something like that in it? Because if so I definitely thought of it first.

    Can't really say as I've never played Runescape. However, you can get the standard copy for pretty cheap. Between Patriarch, Phil, and I, you could balance out the way too proper Britishness and American masculinity. Lol.

    And I just realized I linked you to the American Amazon. Still, you get my point :p

    Still, $15?! That's a tenner over here I think, I should be able to scrape that together.

    And if I can bring my special brand of Britishness to anything, I'm in. Now, to Amazon!

    Awesome! Make sure to make a character on the NA server if you plan to group with us in the future. The game can be pretty overwhelming to start with, but between Patriarch and I, you should be set.
