Arenthil's fight with his first dragon encounter after Mirmulnir was simply awesome! The dragon came swooping down out of the sky without me knowing as Lydia and I neared Fort Dunstad. Suddenly, Contingency fired off Stoneflesh and Lydia exclaimed, "Where did you come from?" Then this white dragon lands right in front of us with a heavy, booming shockwave. I ran for the trees while readying my summon spell as Lydia charged. Long story short, the dragon was defeated by 1000 papercuts from Lydia, myself, summons, wolves around the area, and the bandits at Fort Dunstad. It was an epic fight that seemed to last 10 minutes.
Oh, this sounds so cool and epic, I have to unlock these flying death machines ASAP! :D

I do that, too, on occasion. Sometimes I also give my characters things like new scars, if it fits their story and the events of the game. ^^
To update my mage's story:
Edhelas (after returning to Halldir's Cairn and fetching Jenassa, whom he accidentally left behind) finally found the Mage Stone, and took a carriage to Winterhold after reaching Whiterun again. Arriving at the College late at night, he ran into Brelyna and agreed to help her again, and she then proceeded to transform him into a cow, a horse and a dog. They agreed to never speak of it again.
The next morning, Edhelas returned the book and the staff to their respective owners, and made Onmund very happy by giving him back his amulet. He also spoke with Tolfdir about the Eye of Magnus but they were rudely interrupted by Ancano, who took Edhelas to speak with a member of the Psijic Order. Quaranir told him to go and speak with the Augur of Dunlain and, intrigued by the mystery, that was exactly what Edhelas did. He was tasked with finding the Staff of Magnus, and because it means delving into an age-old Dwemer ruin of Mzulft, he's more than excited to get going!
Edhelas is still alive and kicking, which is a surprise to me personally. Didn't think I'd last this long with a pure mage :D This is the thing I particularly love about this challenge: I've tried running a mage character an insane number of times in the past but have always ended up with a bow-wielding sneak-thief or a sword-and-shield warrior because that's easier for me, but this challenge has made it interesting enough for me to stick with my spells! The restrictions and rules make it fun and force me to think and plan ahead, which is something I don't often do. It breathes a whole new life into the game! :D
