    MORROWIND CHARACTER CREATION

    I created this thread so that we could all create our custom Morrowind characters in advance and share them. That way we can get feedback and maybe make improvements. To post your character first read all the info posted below, then copy the following outline into your post and fill in all the necessary information. I posted my custom character after the information in case you want an example.

    READ THE INFO BELOW BEFORE CREATING YOUR CHARACTER
    --------------------------------------------------------------


    RACES



    BRETON
    Passionate and eccentric, poetic and flamboyant, intelligent and willful, the Bretons feel an inborn, instinctive bond with the mercurial forces of magic and the supernatural. Many great sorcerers have come out of their home province of High Rock, and in addition to their quick and perceptive grasp of spellcraft, enchantment, and alchemy, even the humblest of Bretons can boast a high resistance to destructive and dominating magical energies.
    Special Ability: Dragon Skin



    DARK ELF
    Dark Elves are the dark-skinned Elven peoples of the Eastern Empire. "Dark" is variously understood to mean "dark-skinned," "gloomy," and "ill-favored by fate." The Dunmer and their national character embrace these various connotations with enthusiasm. In the Empire, "Dark Elves" is the common usage, but in their Morrowind homeland, and among their Aldmeri brethren, they call themselves the "Dunmer". The dark-skinned, red-eyed Dark Elves combine powerful intellect with strong and agile physiques, producing superior warriors and sorcerers. On the battlefield, Dark Elves are noted for their skilled and balanced integration of swordsmen, marksmen, and war wizards. In character, they are grim, aloof, and reserved, distrusting and disdainful of other races.
    Special Ability: Resistance to Fire, Bonus to Destructive Magic



    ORC
    These sophisticated barbarian beast peoples of the Wrothgarian and Dragontail Mountains are noted for their unshakeable courage in war and their unflinching endurance of hardships. In the past, Orcs have been widely feared and hated by the other nations and races of Tamriel, but they have slowly won acceptance in the Empire, in particular for their distinguished service in the Emperor's Legions. Orcish armorers are prized for their craftsmanship, and Orc warriors in heavy armor are among the finest front-line troops in the Empire. Most Imperial citizens regard Orc society as rough and cruel, but there is much to admire in their fierce tribal loyalties and generous equality of rank and respect among the sexes.
    Special Ability: Berserk



    HIGH ELF
    In Imperial speech, the haughty, tall, golden-skinned peoples of Summerset Isle are called "High Elves," but they call themselves the "Altmer," or the "Cultured People." In the Empire, "High" is often understood to mean "tall," "proud," or "snobbish." The High Elves confidently consider themselves, with some justice, as the most civilized culture of Tamriel; the common tongue of the Empire, Tamrielic, is based on Altmer speech and writing, and most of the Empire's arts, crafts, and sciences are derived from High Elven traditions. However, the High Elf's smug self-assurance of his superiority can be hard to bear for those of other races. Deft, intelligent, and strong-willed, High Elves are often gifted in the arcane arts, and High Elves boast that their sublime physical natures make them far more resistant to disease than the "lesser races."
    Special Ability: Bonus to Intelligence



    IMPERIAL
    Natives of the civilized, cosmopolitan province of Cyrodiil, the Imperials are well-educated and well-spoken. Imperials are also known for the discipline and training of their citizen armies. Though physically less imposing than the other races, the Imperials have proved to be shrewd diplomats and traders, and these traits, along with their remarkable skill and training as light infantry, have enabled them to subdue all the other nations and races, and to have erected the monument to peace and prosperity that comprises the Glorious Empire.
    Special Ability: Voice of the Emperor



    ARGONIAN
    Little is known and less is understood about the reptilian denizens of Black Marsh. Years of defending their borders have made the Argonians experts in guerilla warfare, and their natural abilities make them equally at home in water and on land. They are well-suited for the treacherous swamps of their homeland, and have developed natural immunities to the diseases and poisons that have doomed many would-be explorers into the region. Their seemingly expressionless faces belie a calm intelligence, and many Argonians are well-versed in the magical arts. Others rely on stealth or steel to survive, and their natural agility makes them adept at either. They are, in general, a reserved people, slow to trust and hard to know. Yet, they are fiercely loyal, and will fight to the death for those they have named as friends.
    Special Ability: Immunity to Poisons and Disease



    REDGUARD
    The most naturally talented warriors in Tamriel, the dark-skinned, wiry-haired Redguards of Hammerfell seem born to battle, though their pride and fierce independence of spirit makes them more suitable as scouts or skirmishers, or as free-ranging heroes and adventurers, than as rank-and-file soldiers. In addition to their cultural affinities for many weapon and armor styles, Redguards are also physically blessed with hardy constitutions and quickness of foot.
    Special Ability: Adrenaline Rush



    WOOD ELF
    The Wood Elves are the various barbarian Elven clanfolk of the Western Valenwood forests. In the Empire, they are collectively referred to as "Wood Elves," but "Bosmer," or "the Tree-Sap People," is what they call themselves. "Tree-Sap" suggests the wild vitality and youthful energy of Wood Elves, in contrast with their more dour cousins, the Altmer and Dunmer. Bosmer reject the stiff, formal traditions of Aldmeri high culture, preferring a romantic, simple existence in harmony with the land, its wild beauty and wild creatures. These country cousins of the High Elves and Dark Elves are nimble and quick in body and wit, and because of their curious natures and natural agility, Wood Elves are especially suitable as scouts, agents, and thieves. But most of all, the Wood Elves are known for their skills with bows; there are no finer archers in all of Tamriel.
    Special Ability: Beast Tongue



    KHAJIIT
    Khajiit hail from the province of Elsweyr and can vary in appearance from nearly Elven to the cathay-raht "jaguar men" to the great Senche-Tiger. The most common breed found in Morrowind, the suthay-raht, is intelligent, quick, and agile. Khajiit of all breeds have a weakness for sweets, especially the drug known as skooma. Many Khajiit disdain weapons in favor of their natural claws. They make excellent thieves due to their natural agility and unmatched acrobatics ability. Many Khajiit are also warriors, although this is less common among the suthay-raht.
    Special Ability: Eye of Fear, Night Vision



    NORD
    The citizens of Skyrim are a tall and fair-haired people, aggressive and fearless in war, industrious and enterprising in trade and exploration. Skilled sailors, Nords can be found in seaports and settlements along all the coasts and rivers of Tamriel. Strong, stubborn, and hardy, Nords are famous for their resistance to cold, even magical frost. Violence is an accepted and comfortable aspect of Nord culture; Nords of all classes are skilled with a variety of weapon and armor styles, and they cheerfully face battle with an ecstatic ferocity that shocks and appalls their enemies.
    Special Ability: Thunder Fist

    Oh and Bundy I would recommend taking at least unarmored. You need some type of armor or defense. Just a thought from reading many peoples impressions on the game.

    xbox-dynasty, I just want to thank you for posting this helpful template. This is really cool. You, sir, just posted a 5-star post, and I don't care what anybody says. Finally some SOLID info to hold us over until Morrowind is released or Christ returns--whichever comes first.

    And what line of work might you pursue with your major skills being sneak, marksmanship, and security (which allows you to pick locks right?) hmm...? Remember even Robin Hood was a theif LOL! that was fun. I think theivery will be the most popular line of work--atleast for the first few hours of gameplay.

    Question

    I am a little confused by all of this. We choose from among the same list of skills to put in our major and minor sets right? And how much difference is there between a major and a minor? Will my major skill #1 be more powerful than my major skill #5?

    I've got a character roughly etched out in my mind. I'm thinking something like this:
    Major skills
    mercantile
    speech craft
    short blade
    light armor
    alteration
    Minor skills
    conjuration
    alchemy
    illusion
    enchant
    Misc skills
    mysticism
    restoration
    destruction
    ...and the rest...

    I'll choose either a Breton (good with magic), Kahjit (good at sneaking) or Nord (nords rule!)
    My plan is to be a good magic user, influence people well, be able to create custom weapons, and have decent sneaking/thiefing abilities (which will take some work, since those skills are in miscellaneous).

    Let's see... Class: "Persuasionist" (name of my custom class).
    I guess that's all that can go there.

    Well, it all really depends. For starters, you will probably be walking around the wilderness killing small creatures, and going into the occasional cave to kill some slave traders or poachers. This style of gameplay will require - and reward you with: high armor skill (unless you wear no armor, in which case it will increase your armorless skill) and high long blade/short blade/spear/blunt/axe skill, depending on what you use.
    A good portion of the game (all of it if you choose) could be spent adventuring like this, in which case you will want to choose some form of armor, weapon and atheleticism skills for your major and minor, since you will mostly be a fighter. It would also be wise to join a fighters guild which would give you missions that are basically the same thing

    Or, you could decide to focus on (a little past the beginning parts of the game) stealth. This would require a good security skill (for stealing things), good speachcraft (to talk your way out of things), good alteration (to alter the environment to your needs), and possibly light armor and short blade skill.

    Then, there's the mage side. There are several different types of magical users as well, but generally you'll want to select the major magical schools (alteration, destruction, restoration, etc.) for your main skills.

    Of course, you can mix all these skills how you want. A wise thing to do would be to select a pre-generated class, then play the game for a while just messing around. Pay attention to the types of things you find most fun, the skills you increase in the most, if you like stealing or being righteous, etc. Then go and create a custom character with the skillset you'd like.

    Remember, you can always alter your character by raising skills they don't normally use. Basically, this means you could make a thief turn into a conjurer if you wish. The important thing is to try the game out first, explore the possibilities, then decide.
