Wow, cool pics! Interesting to see what type of characters my fellow Skyrimmers have chosen to play. Also love seeing all the beyond lovely landscapes.
I chose to be a Nord (certain family members now claim I'm a Nord Nerd). And yeah, her name is Dia.

http://i29.photobucket.com/albums/c262/Diah_/TTLG%20Stuff/2011-11-15_00046me.jpgMy new bodyguard, Vorstag, who looks suspiciously like Arnie, though he doesn't speak with the fake Austrian accent that seems to be prevalent in so many guards in almost every town. My former bodyguard, Jenassa, finally bought it in one of the dungeon quests, which made me sad, until I received a letter of inheritance by courier stating that my loyal bodyguard had bequeathed all her worldly possessions to me. For some reason, the game wouldn't let me resurrect her ..... again. Vorstag packs a more powerful punch, but is somewhat slower - must be all that beef. Just might have to marry this one. :cheeky:

I was blown away the first time I witnessed that.

Wow, I like that last shot Judith. Where did you take it, if you don't mind me asking?
I'm sorry, I have no idea where that was taken :) I was just wandering around south east border of the map, maybe it was one of many dungeons or towers you can see there.

This thread isn't nearly as dirty as what I thought it'd be. But oh well, here's some pretty pictures. Click little picture to make big picture.
First shot of the game of my level 1 character during the first night of adventuring. I thought the aurora was a fairly nice touch..shame I haven't seen it since.

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3018396/Skyrim_3_sm.jpgI have to say, this has to be the prettiest and most atmospheric Elder Scrolls game I've played. It even beats Morrowind on that front, which is quite the feat.
edit: So I'm heading back to town after a night of much slaughter and profit, when I happen across a strange situation. There's this guy, right? This guy, well, he's beating up a horse. I don't know what the horse did to him, but there he is, smacking the poor thing around with an axe. Maybe he's starting up a new glue factory out in the middle of nowhere. I dunno. Whatever he's doing, I can't tolerate it. Horses are our friends, and we should stick up for them whenever the opportunity arises.
I killed the guy, and took the horse. Then I took this screenshot...

http://www.romersolutions.com/DragonSlayer.jpgNothing like a cinematic kill on a dragon. This particular battle almost became real interesting - while I was fighting the dragon, a second dragon flew overhead. Unfortunately it didn't stop to help out - that would've been fun. Right afterward though, I got attacked by Dr. Doom
