    introduction:

    this is an assassin based build that uses pure assassin skills but in a fancy new way, its all about stealth and speed of the character it will be useful if used correctly but weak if used in a wrong way, okay good lets get started.

    The Shadow of Skyrim

     

    The Build

    its nothing special relay just a few changes here and there in the normal assassin style of character to make my own unique style, also one of the important thing in this build that he isn't just any normal assassin he is the protector of Skyrim too.

    Race: Nord is good for role-play but a Bosmer is Recommended

    Stone: Thief or Shadow are good choices

    Major Skills: Archery, One-Handed, Light Armor, Sneak

    Minor Skills: Alchemy, Speech, Smith

    Armor: full Nightingale armor (because it looks good)

     Weapons: Nightingale's Bow and dual wielded Ebony daggers

    Ring and Necklace: Ring of Major Archery and Charmed Necklace

    Shout: Slow Time and Elemental Fury

    Quests: Thieves Guild, Companions, Dark Brotherhood, Main Quest, Stormcloaks, Dawnguards

    Stat Placement: 0/1/1

    Role-Play

    You are an assassin but also the Dragonborn you need to protect skyrim and your fellow nords and keep the dragons away from the land as you rise to be the best assassin in all of Tamriel although you still need to keep some dirty money in your pocket so you can earn the title of the best assassin ever lived. another thing i want to added is disguises, you can use various disguises so you can infiltrate various locations without begin noticed and kill your target, what will you be? a guard, a chef, a worker, a miner, a citizen, a peasant or my most favorite your target's trusty bodyguard

     

     

    Perk Placement

    Archery: take all beside (ranger) because you will be using your bow only in the shadows

     

    Light Armor: All the way up tell you get wind walker

     

    One-Handed: Armsman, Dual Flurry, Dual Savagery

     

    Sneak: All perks are needed

     

    Play Tactics

    you will use your bow only when you are in the shadows if you got detected you will quickly use your daggers to kill the enemys who discovered you and then go back to the shadows and continue your stealth hunting

    Special Moves

    Flying Shadow: this is mostly a glitch not intended in the game but using the Shadow Warrior perk you can press the sneak button over and over again in battle so your character look like black smoke flying in the air and you can get to a safe location using this

     

    Viper Fangs: you poison the left blade with paralyze poison and the right blade with a lingering damage poison and attack with both of them making a strong enemy fall down and be poisoned so you can take care of the rest knowing that he will die soon

     

    Arrow Rain: from a hiding spot you can slow time and attack your enemys with a variety of poisoned arrows

     

     

    Good Luck and Have Fun.

    "Special" moves need fixing... Really, what's special about them? Any archer/dagger fighter can use those. Special moves need to be unique combos that only your build can pull off. There's no point forcing them, not all builds need them. And you can't like your own build. Not allowed.

    Looking better, still needs a good load of improvement. I advise you change the text size first (change it to 2 in Ning), then expand a lot more on the gameplay. Run us through some common encounters, and what you'd do to survive each one. Also, it'd be even better if you expanded on skill choices. Why did you chose x skill?

    Could you explain how this is any different from any other assassin build?
