    Reverse-pickpocket some gifts and flee if they catch you. Harmony and/or courage spells should work well. Maybe the horse "Frost"? Completing all radiant quests (bring x item from x location to x person) could be also fun. Dawnbreaker for the bad guys and maybe stuff like shield-charge?

    Maybe put a gift in, say, a wardrobe or drawer of a friendly NPC's house? LIke, one that fits them, like an enchanted bow for Faendel, or a newly smithed sword for Lydia

    You know what's funny? "Gift" is the word for "poison" in German^^.

    Well, I guess you knew it...

    I know now Relycs, the only German I ever learned mainly comes from either common knowledge, or WW2 movies

    A very well balanced build here especially for only four skills. I've never heard of Krumpus until recently. Seems to be my kind of character truth be told! You presented wondrously.  A question/concern I have is what is the methodology of defeating an enemy who is immune to frost? Specializing in only one element ( even though having two shouts of the other two  is a great touch too ) is a drawback in my opinion. As there will come a time where the character will encounter a foe who is immune to the element itself.  Its always best to take at least an additional one for safeties sake.  Any other ideas for themed builds like this. I would definitely look forward to reading.

    I think I'll definitely be carrying on with folklore-themed builds like this one, since the reaction has been pretty much overwhelmingly positive! Thanks for the compliments on the build!

    As for the ice problem, I fear I didn't really consider that, which I really... should've. I found, while I was playing as him, the mace was enough to do away with frost-resistant enemies, but that won't really work against more powerful types, especially The Infamously Difficult Frost-Based Bonus Boss Karstaag. I'll think on how to fix that!
