    Oooooooh, that makes sense. I'll talk to snakes about it.

    Maiq Cant decide, should maiq name his Strides-in-shadow, Or Strides-In-Shade?

    Strides-In-Shadow sounds really cool haha, I used Vistha-Kai

  • July 26, 2012

    I would prefer "Strides-in-Shadow"... 'Shade' sounds more relaxing, as in "Rests-in-Shade".

    Exactly! It would sound as if he's just taking leisurely strolls throughout Skyrim instead of lurking in the Shadows. Another good one would be Stalks-The-Shadows

    I once ran a necromancer/argonian/assassin, called him "Kills-em-Twice".

    Lol Mason you're so silly, and I'm mostly to blame. Things may have gotten a little lost in translation with the collaborative effort but I never intended for the Shadowscale to disarm and kill each and every single enemy with their own weapon. It's really more about being able to use your environment and utilize anything you can get your hands on to kill someone. For instance, as I mentioned in an earlier comment, I took out the whole Enbershard Mine with the pickaxe I picked up next to the first two patrol units. Took out the Bandit Chief of Valtheim Keep by stealing one of the Bandit Thug's swords on my way to him and then used the Argonian Advantage move to get out after killig a few more Bandits silently. You can use and hang on to whatever weapons you want for as long as you want. The key is just roleplaying a character who can kill anyone anywhere with anything!

    A No snakes aLive,

    It's weird that you mentioned clearing Enbershard Mine with the pickaxe, because that's the same thing I used to clear the same mine. I didn't take it off of anybody though, it was laying on the ground.

    Haha same here. It was laying on the crate next to them and I taught Skyrim it's first valuable lesson about leaving weapons laying around with a Shadowscale in town. Early on when I had no means of disarming anyone I would sneak around looking for weapon racks in caves or stuff laying around instead. Made for a really immersive roleplaying experience.

    That's always difficult to do. I couldn't find any weapons in one cave, so I had to use my level 12 destruction when I was level 56. Not fun.
