    Hey Ponty, I thought of one. Title: The Priest of Trinimac. Bonus skill: Illusion- The Priest of Trinimac as a presence like no other. Blasphemers and heathens run from the sight of him. Well the noble of heart are inspired by his presence. Possible skill drop- He could easily drop his shield, then he'd be like the Oblivion Knight class. But at the same time illusion is a 'fire-and-forget' school so he doesn't need the spell constantly In-depth- Okay, hear me out. Yes, illusion is like mind control. Yes, Trinimac has become Malacath. But I'm thinking of illusion as his sheer presence more then a magical school. And the priest is also not convinced that Trinimac wasn't fully transformed into Trinimac. Kind of like Sheogorath and Jygalygg. I could imagine him in several armor sets, like Dawnguard or Steel plate. He could enchant a mace with paralyze 1-second to slow down fleeing enemies.

    Sounds reasonable enough, but what is he fighting for? I can't really see this kind of guy fighting evil for the sake of it.

    I was thinking he would fight the Daedra due to their claims of Malacath, which is contradictory to his belief, or for corrupting Trinimac (if he believes the duality theory). I'm not a lore wiz so I really couldn't think of any cool backstory as in-depth as the other paths, sadly. It could also be his job to "convert" the Orc of Skyrim, though he'll help other races too.

    Sounds good! I'll try and do that, the mara path and a few other Skyrim things over the next few days, I was kinda hoping Dragonborn would be out by now but oh well...

    I doubt you could make a Paladin of Padomay (Sithis). Maybe you could with Anu.

    *SPOILER ALERT* 

    For the warrior of shor in a tribe nords known as the skaal, they ware Carved ancient nord armor which looks very fitting for a warrior of Shor.

    what about a Paladin of decay as follower of peryite using the spellbreaker and alchemy as some kind of virus effect ?

    No Daedric Princes except for Azura or Meridia.

    I hereby decree no Dragonborn content shall be present in my discussions until I say otherwise

    But seriously, for people that are saying dragonborn stuff would suit existing paths I'll decide that for myself thank you
