That reminds me of this dude who named his Dark Elf in Morrowind, Sareth.

#40 Posted by EchoEcho (602 posts) - 1 year, 4 months ago

I'm playing a Dunmer spellsword named Soreyn (also the name of my Shadar-kai Warlock in D&D, because I was apparently feeling especially uncreative.)

Don't have any others yet, but if I end up remaking the characters I used in Oblivion, then I'll also have: an Imperial pure mage named Mackenzie; a disfigured orc named Monk gro-Keybutt who punches things he doesn't like (which is everything); and another Dunmer named Kalor, who was also a one-handed sword + magic user, so I'd likely turn him into my Bosmer bow-wielding thiefy/assassin type, one of which I had in Oblivion but have since forgotten the name of.
