Your Skyrim Race and Character Build

For those of u who play The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, what race did u choose for your character and what build did u use?

I personally, chose a high elf and chose a spell-sword build.  I carry a sword in one hand and a spell in the other.  Keep in mind that as of now the sword I have is a daedric sword with both soul trap and absorb health enchantments.  I never need a healing potion or restoration spell and my weapon never loses its charge because of the soul trap enchantment and the fact that I have Azura's Star which is a reusable soul gem.

I picked Dunmer and focus on sneak,destruction and one handed weapons.  I like Dunmer the best due to my love of Morrowind.  I like Skyrim, it was definitely an improvement over Oblivion.

Imperial 2 Hands with Heavy Armor.

I also went into enchanting, and blacksmithy. Close to maxing out 1 hand and light armor as well. I've stopped playing since... but I plan to get back in there some time... probably.

Kajiit, Heavy Armor, Stealth + Dual Wield

I never had much use for magic and I maxed out smithing/enchanting/alchemy.

So I pretty much rely on super-powered enchanted gear

Since Skyrim, ALL games I now compare to skyrim...... sadly none have to be up to par with it

Think of bugs... most game will surpass Skyrim in that regard... or the lack of bugs, rather.

I picked Argonian as my race. And not like I care too much, I don't really need the character benefits from the race anyway, but, I do feel like Argonians should have gotten SOMETHING useful. Breathing under water in Skyrim is useless. How many times did you honestly go in the water? Oh well, I'm not gonna complain.

I haven't played in a bit over a month, but IIRC, I had 100 in:
Smithing
One Handed Weapons
Speech

And my heavy armor was at like 80 something, and my block at about 60.

I think I have an armor rating of about...... 600(?)
Stuff.

I am a Nord who primarily wields one handed weapons, but is not averse to bludgeoning things to death with a two handed weapon either.

The only time he uses spells are when the dragon flies too high to hit with a sword.
How not to be a dark lord: the answer to that is a terribly interesting answer that involves an almost Jedi-like adherence to keeping oneself under control and finding ways to be true to yourself in a way that doesn't encourage the worst parts of you to become dangerously exaggerated and instead feeds your better nature. Also, protip: don't fuck with Alchemy or strike up any deals with ancient Japanese Shinigami gods no matter how tempting the deal or how suavely dressed the Shinigami is.

I'm level 85 now, everything on 100.
The game doesn't get any easier, I think it's because the enemies auto escalate, so if you are still on level 1 the game is the same as if you are in level 50.

Alchemy and enchanting are too boring for me :(

Wuuthrad is an awesome mighty axe of mightiness. And it makes physical confrontations a breeze.

I just finished the game and I liked it so much I think I'll play through it again, but with a different race and build.  I just hope it won't be too many years before the next installment of the series is made.  Assuming that there is another installment in the series.
