For this event I wanted to try and tick as many boxes as I could and 'Resurrection' is definitely going to be one for the most creative of you among us. We'll be taking a look at some of the amazing characters that we have discovered from the Elder Scrolls series and quite literally resurrecting them into a character build.
Perhaps you want to see what Ysgramor was like in the flesh and see if he really was a great leader, maybe Mannimarco has decided to make his return to Nirn to spread chaos, even a skill book that you found at the very bottom of a crypt could contain the foundations of an amazing character!
'Resurrection' is going to take you on a pretty nice journey. Nearly everyone has met or at least read about an inspiring NPC while playing Elder Scrolls games and so for this contest we're going to bring them to life.
There are very few limits on the character that you choose to make, it could be the most insignificant argonian maid right up to the most powerful Telvanni wizard, but they must be from the past. Don't create a 'Jarl Balgruuf' because he already exists in the present...
Even if Skyrim is the only Elder Scrolls game you have ever played their is still a huge resource of amazing characters for you to choose from by turning to lore or studying a skill book, maybe even take an hour to visit the Arcanaeum at The College of Winterhold and discover rumour of a long forgotten warrior.
For those that have played previous Elder Scrolls games you should have very few problems in selecting a candidate. The games are rich with powerful characters that come with their own backstories, personality and abilities.
Let your creativity run wild...
Rules & Requirements:
- Builds may only be submitted on or just after the 31st March 2014. Posting an entry before this time will result in exclusion from the event.
- To deter poor entries your build must contain 1200 words or more. I'll be on hand to run a word count for those with weak software.
- Your character must exist within the world of the Elder Scrolls and must be from the past. Considerations will be made for characters that are perhaps 'missing in action', send me a private message if you're unsure.
- Your build must range between level 40 - 55. No more, no less.
- All builds are still subject to normal Group Guidelines.
- DON'T publicly disclose your choice of npc/character for now. Feel free to send me a PM
ALL builds created as part of this event will be placed into their own unique rank in the character building group and sorted in 'Hall of Fame' format. I will be available over private messaging throughout the whole event and while I won't help you write your build I will happily steer your build in the right direction if you need me to.
