    It says he is proficient in lightning and flame yet the video only shows fire magic. And also why lightning not frost

    I didn't use lightning in the video since undead are weak to fire, making flame a much more efficient damage type to be using. Lightning seems more appropriate for one who derives his power from the gods, plus there's less enemies with lightning resistance than I can count on my fingers, compared to many enemies with frost resistance.

    In D&D 2nd Ed Clerics were my favourite class because they were great all-rounders and there were plenty of roleplay hooks, backgrounds and deities to choose from. I like how that has been incorporated rather than just a priest of one of the Divines.

    I think I'd have relied more on wards rather than a shield to create more of a seperation between Paladins and Clerics but I understand why you didn't as wards are magicka vampires. Have you thought about updating with any of the Dawnguard spells?

    I wonder which spells and shouts from Dragonborn could be used on this character? Waters of life, Sun flare maybe bones of the earth. Ignite would work marvellously with this  character. Dragon aspect, bend will and battle cry would go well I think. (Battle cry = followers get elemental fury with or without enchanted weapons.)

    I think I will play as a Breton priest of Kynareth and use frost/lightning magic. Is Kynareth part of the breton pantheon?

    I Enjoy how your videos don't show you power maxed and instead show you at level 30 or 25

    In the middle ages, it was decreed that priests and bishops were forbidden to spill a drop of blood. So instead, they used maces, to leave 'heathens' broken on the inside, but not bleeding.

    You mentioned a Sorcerer build in the preamble (or heavilly armored mage, which say "Sorcerer" to me in the later games.)  I can't seem to find it.  Oh yeah, and another great build, as expected whenever you make a Holy Warrior.  Would have liked to see more talk about the various religions you could be a Priest of, but it's not my build.
