This week, I've been mostly doing...

Gawd. My activities over the past week have been so non-specific - well, I'm following the MQ, but in order to make sure I see plenty of the world, I don't fast travel or use carts during the MQ, just stick to marked roads as much as possible, and explore every landmark that pops up along the way.

So I'm level 35, I have 60 or so dungeon clearances under my belt, and I'm a little past halfway through the MQ itself.

I haven't even seen a full blown Dwemer ruin yet :( but I've come across a couple of Falmer lairs that end in a smallish Dwemer ruin.

Damn. So much to see, and I've already seen quite a lot.

- Luring a dragon to fight me at a cliffside, but he didn't bother
- Getting involved in Markath (still, no house though. I like Dwemer ruins, but living in one...)
- Becoming an agent of Dibella :sly:

-A lot of wondering at how becoming an agent of all these different Daedric lords and other guilds/factions is going to affect the outcome of my game.
-A lot of frustration time before realizing that the quests involved in Dark Brotherhood Forever MQ are pretty much infinite. (Assassinated about 10 more people for the Mother before I checked that quest out on UESP Wiki to find out how many more I had to go before I was done with it.)
-Nothing to further the main quest because I'm having so much fun and don't want it to end.

Finished the MQ. Started a new character.

Got my "full blown Dwemer ruin" fix when I found myself in Blackreach. Holy shit, that place was awesome.

Been doing more exploring around the areas northeast of Markarth like Dragontooth Crater. Beautiful!

-Tried to join an Emperor Killing Cult. As it turns out, you didn't actually have to kill an emperor to join, but despite the low standards, there was only one other member anyway. Apparently, this cult worships the devil. Or a devil. Who made me kill the only other member. And by made me, I mean offered me a sweet dagger if I did so.

-Tried to clear out a crypt, only to be recruited into a different cult because I had eaten human flesh. Tried to explain I just wanted to see it's alchemical properties, but they didn't buy it. But by this point, I've done some many horrific things that eating people seems mundane. SO I signed up and ate the local priest.

-Got married to a nice Breton woman. We met when she paid me to murder her ex husband. Usually a history of assassination of husbands is a bad quality to look for in a wife. However, I'm an cannibal assassin who makes deals with every devil I can find, so it's a bit hard to take the moral high ground on that one. And it saves me the "What do you mean you kill people for money?" conversation.

I'm really hoping this whole saving the world things ends with me becoming an immortal ala Tiber Septim, because if it doesn't there are gonna be like 17 different hells in a custody battle over me when I die.

-Have been delaying the inevitable quest with the Companions (never thought I looked good in fur, ya know?) but am starting to tire of dungeons and Dwemer ruins sub-quests.
-Have also been agonizing because I spent HOURS looking for 24 special gems and only have 23 and can't finish that quest until I have all 24. Omg! I can't find the last one and it's driving me bugnuts!
-Got another sub-quest to kill a dragon that I thought I'd already killed; fast-traveled to the place only to find that the damn thing is flying backwards .... again. Even when I didn't fast-travel the cursed beast acted all squirrely, so I cursed loudly and left.
-Have discovered the joys of Fraps and have actually managed to capture some great kill-scenes. I'm really lovin' the whole dual-wielding maneuver. ;)

Still having fun with Skyrim! :thumb:

God; do know that feeling!

I think... I've managed to scout every piece of road and rugged trail in the eastern half of Whiterun Hold, because I can actually chug around those parts now and... know where I am.

Sick, I know. :p I went hunting all around Riverwood for ore veins and pelts, and it just sorta happened.

Getting lured into some cult that 'feasts on dead flesh'. I'm a bit reluctant to be honest, but then again, with me raiding ancient Nords nearly every day... Could combine it with breakfast. Anyone has some experience with that diet?
