    Had to stop reading mid-way through to click the Like button!  That quote under the Roleplay section is definitely a worthy life motto, but I think a ton of skyrim players could really benefit from it as well. 

    I also really like your roleplaying style.  I, too, find restricting my characters to be the best way to flesh them out and make them unique.  Any play style that forces me to play the game differently, out of my comfort zone is great for immersion and fun.

    I am put off a bit by the whole being a werewolf thing, as I absolutely hated it the last time I tried roleplaying a werewolf.  Though, I didn't have any DLC at the time, I still don't have much of a hankering to delve into the new perk trees for werewolves or vampires because I feel like the game would be much better with neither species. 

    Would you be open to me using your hunter roleplay restrictions for a project I am currently collecting information for in the Roleplay Group?  My goal is to compile all relevant roleplay information for various archetypes and put them all into 1 thread.  Separating the wheat from the chaff so to speak.

    I love it! Its simple its easy and nice fun to play when your sat in on a rainy day. Its surprisingly good to play rather than a battle axe swinging daedric warlord. I like taking my dog vigilance out but I leave him in my cave (bloated mans grotto) when I go werewolf mode. Anyways great build well done.

    Greetings to everyone.  I'm aware that this build has seen no real attention from me in a LONG time, and I do apologize for that.  However, I wanted to give my profound thanks for all the interest you and others have given to my first and only build, which I tossed together with no real experience.  Above all I wish to state how honored I am that you have helped it achieve Mythic status, and to see that it has been nominated for the upcoming Hall of Fame.  Simple as my intention was in posting this build, it means a lot to know that so many other players have found enjoyment in something, however minute, that I created. 

    In regards to my absence, and indeed my near abandonment, of this topic...I make no excuses except that I was forced to obtain a new iMac, with which I was then able to incorporate mods into my playstyle.  Thus I considered it a somewhat moot point to further add to this console focused build, which was created with my intention of adapting as much as possible to the limitations of that platform.  I felt that to weave mods into it would possibly undermine the spirit of its purpose...to try and give players like myself (at the time) the chance to play Skyrim in a far different way.

    Be that as it may, I will for now, list off a few of my choice mods for such people as may take interest in it. 

    - Frostfall

    - Wet & Cold

    - Hunterborn

    - Realistic Needs & Diseases

    - SkyTest: Realistic Animals & Predators

    - Unique Bows

    The real list is far too expansive, but those are my core selections that I feel enhance the world itself for the style I sought to achieve.

    Again, I thank everyone who has liked, commented (even negative criticism is appreciated), and above all tried out my little creation.  Here's to another great year of Skyrim for everyone!
