  I am a Lich an Ancient Vampire Lord Who chose to develop My magical prowess and become one of the greatest necromancer's in existence, I was once a mortal who knew nothing of magic but was cursed by Molag Bal out of hate for my prowess as a warrior within the Aldmeri dominion I was once Altmer. Known for my skill with heavy armor and twin-blades. i was among those that banished Molag Bal during the 2nd Era and it was then that he Cursed me with Vampirism. Feared by the very people i helped save i was exiled for over a Millinium and it was during the Stormcloak rebellion against the Empire that i traveled to Skyrim after discovering that there was a group of vampires under the rule of a man named Harkon, I decided then that i would use him to gain the power i needed to take revenge on Molag Bal him self....but then i discovered that this was not a curse but a gift and i would use it to rule over all of Skyrim. My name is Shor-el Frostmane and i am the last True Lich.

  With this build you'll rely primarily on your magic granted you can take a hit if an enemy does get close enough but chances are there gonna die long before that happens and your chances of runing out of magicka are very low due to the magicka regen from Morokei your armor and Restoration, But if you do run out you have your minions So they can protect you if need be but more likely you'll be using them as cannon fodder. The reason i chose Altmer for this build is do to there sweet Magicka bonus and racial power this basically turns you into a Grade A+ Mage Tank that can kill anything.

  Essential quests: Dawnguard (vampires) College of winterhold Main questline (DragonBorn if available)

  and any others that arent for another faction I.E. Companions thieves guild dark brotherhood, Unless your doing destroy the dark brotherhood.

  Well this is my first build  I hope you all like the story i put into it and the build its-self :) let me know what you guys think :)
