  Try the screenshot thread in skyrim art if you want screenies of your characters. And if you don't mind me saying, I would personally chose lycanthropy as that is more of a transformation, whereas a bulky Orc is pretty much permanent hulk mode. Plus with lycanthropy you can change at will with hircine's ring, or use the cursed ring of hircine to make it more role okay pleasing, as Bruce Banner doesn't want to transform, so the cursed ring suits it perfectly. Just my two cents.

  The Thor and Hulk update has been released. Again, if there are any specific suggestions for improvement I will be happy to accommodate them.

  The next update will contain three builds, so it will most certainly take longer (I hope to get it in before Monday). I'm actually doing an incredibly exhaustive playtest of Nick Fury (who is pretty much set in stone), and have constructed the basics of Hawkeye and Black Widow...except, well, they're incredibly similar, and I still need to find a means of differentiating them aside from bow vs daggers.

  I've also added the suggested image to the top (thank you, Knight-Paladin Robert), and will locate a means of obtaining screenshots for the builds. Once all of the Avengers have been released, I hope to get this out of the Bloodworks.

  This definitely gets a +1. Nice mix of TES and Avengers lore. Don't feel obligated to stick to the movie roster. If Black Widow and Hawkeye are too similar, why not try Spiderman or Doctor Strange? They're both on one Avengers team or another in the comics.

  Actually, I always thought Hawk Eye and Black Widow were pretty different. Black Widow seems like a sneaky, alchemist/assassin with dual daggers, whereas Hawk Eye seems like an in your face archer. To make them more different, you could play Hawk Eye as a non sneak build. Loving the hulk build, by the way.

  I like how well you incorporated the Hulk into the game. I thought you would just have some unarmed Orc, but you clearly did put a lot of thought into it. Nice work, can't wait to see the next three.

  I have news.

  First off, The Avengers is just 6 likes away from getting out of the Bloodworks, and it is highly likely to escape within the next few days. I thank you all for this support, and I can't believe my first build(s) went off so well.

  Second off, I released Hawkeye without Black Widow and Nick Fury because I do not have time to write up the next two before my Internet-free vacation starts. In the meantime, make suggestions ESPECIALLY for fixing any errors, inconsistencies, or problems that may be located within what I've written (for instance, I, myself, haven't tested the effects of Weakness to Fire or Shock, but Weakness to Frost does actually increase Frost damage output), and when I return, I will fix any errors and write up Black Widow and Nick Fury.

  Third off, as I've said, I'm going on vacation for just over a week. I will not be able to update this build until I return, so please be patient - if you have a concern about the builds, leave it in the replies section or message me and I'll see what I can do when I get back.

  Finally, here's a hint for where I'm taking Nick Fury - he's not very sneaky, but he is a boss.

  Yes!  The top image is great... but it needs a shot of each Avenger alongside the text to help break it up.

  Also, I was really hoping that the Hulk would be an Orc.  I am quite dissapointed.  What you created was Bruce Banner... not the Hulk.

  I have yet to locate a fitting image for each (considering how long this page is getting I'm starting to think I don't want to), and do not currently have the means of making such images myself.

  Also, I kind of got talked out of making a ridiculously muscular unarmed Orc (though that would have been kind of funny to play as). It seems people have already come up with such an idea, so I decided to Jekyll-Hyde it and create a Breton lycanthrope. Not only do conversations make more sense (Hulk ain't much for talking), but the applications of a Bruce Banner persona can do wonders for an adapted no-killing Skyrim playthrough. Also, lycanthropy was used to illustrate that the Hulk itself is a raging beast and the opposite side of the coin to Banner, which is the impression I got from the Marvel movies.

  That said, I might make a minor build in the future with an Orcish Hulk. I'm thinking along the lines of Planet Hulk to grant such a build the versatility it needs.

  Needs pictures, but other than that it's a pretty interesting idea!
