    I have to admit Shin it's a unique build having a 2ft Khajiit. I've a question about the play through. Did you find the size make a big difference in the game play with regards to restrictions and access to places due to the size?

    The reason I'm asking is that I will be having a small character join the pack in my story. Neesha...

    Your insight to using small characters would be useful.

    The Dagi are incredibly acrobatic, so I modified Jo'ji's jump scale to reflect that. With those modifications, there was no trouble at all. HOWEVER, before I figured out that the jump height could be modified, I found getting around to be EXTREMELY difficult at 2 ft tall (difficult enough to where I almost didn't do it because it significantly broke the RP of being a Dagi). When I played The Small One, my character was about waist high to everyone else and had no jump height modifications; it was difficult but doable. At times despite my best efforts, some things were inaccessible (I eventually got around it by using the Klimmek's Pack glitch ;D). Hope that helps. I'm very curious to see what you've got cooking... she looks like an interesting choice character :D

    It definitely felt undignified at times trying to scramble up oversized furniture and tables xD

    So I started a new character, not Jo'ji just yet (still on console), but instead I'm rolling with Thaerin. So far the rp has been great lol. I got caught pickpocketing in Whiterun so I had to bolt. Then some thugs hunted me down in Ivarstead but I gave eem the slip. Then I saved a distressed M'iaq from a pack of wolves which is probably the first time I've seen him in like ten playthroughs. I'm traveling by foot and staying a pretty wimpy character who sucks at thieving and it's been pretty fun. I'm weaseleling my way into the Thieves Guild now. Can't wait to get my pc up and running though :)

    Man I hope I'm doing this right!  I have lurked here for years looking around at different builds and ideas.  This build made me sign up just to respond .  I LOVE IT!  Thanks for creating such a fun and unique build that is all about having a good time.  I like several builds on this site but I just LOVE this one.  Unfortunately my PC won't handle Skyrim so I have to play on console but as soon as my PC is fixed or I get a new one I'm all over this.  It will be my first on my new/fixed rig.  Thanks again.  Now I'm off to read the story that inspired this all.

    Omigosh! I was totally thinking of doing the same thing! I'm currently halfway through DB's Paralytic Mage, but thought to myself, "ShinJin. You ought to run a playthrough as Thaerin." It's funny, though... just about every thief I've ever been starts off like Thaerin xD I think it's a master-stroke to try to keep him that way, though. Promise me that you'll at least consider a write-up for it if it turns out to be a lot of fun :D

    Thanks Ajani! I have the plot line laid out but haven't had the time to write it up. Once I get the hang of my job I may complete it. But of course school starts in Fall so who knows lol, sorry to keep the readers waiting but thanks for the kind words mate!
