Minor Dovahkiin additions

[Kami95]

Dovahkiin should have Empathic Manipulation (Illusion spells) and resistance to cold (is canonically a nord), possibly other resistance depending on his race (although I'm not sure if it counts or we only consider the canon one).

As a vampire, he should also have weakness to fire and sunlight and resistance to illnesses.

 

[Self_Love]

Sure.

Illusion Creation (specify what he can do from this link here)

Resistance to Ice Manipulation only as he is nord canonically

If he's a vampire, he would have full on immunity to dieases and poision

 

[Kami95]

I've just noticed that other videogame characters have resistances based on the equip they can et in game. Would that give Dovahkiin every possible enchantment he can get (resistance to elements, magic, poison etc.) based on which armor he wears?

About the race, I just thought it would be nice to put different characteristics on his profile, it would allow people to make battles that specifically use a certain dovahkin build (like argonian vampire assassin, nord werewolf warrior, altmer mage etc.).

Basically it's all about this wiki's policy, I don't know how it works in this case.

 

[Self_Love]

Well he already has a potent resistance to Magic (along with absorption) and a damn good resistance to mind and soul manipulation. Enchantments and what not will border around the realm of game mechanics and would itch towards the terrority of stuff like the resto glitch.

Dovahkiin is nord by canon, so we should just stick to that. Bethesda just likes to give us options when creating our character.

 

[Kami95]

I agree with you, but since other characters (like Link or Steve, for example) have many resistances or abilities that come from the equipments they can get in the games, I just wanted to know if we should just stick to lore or game mechanics are accepted to an extent.

 

[Self_Love]

Lore. others should do the same

 

[Kami95]

To be fair, I also think it should be the case (although gameplay factors would offer more variety for vs threads, which would also be nice).

Anyway, if no one else replies I'll ask someone to confirm the additions and unlock the thread.

 

[Kami95]

Bump.

 

[Aeyu]

I think that the things proposed in this thread are fine, honestly.

 

[ThePerpetual]

These suggestions seem fine, but isn't he not, canonically, a vampire by default? You should probably list additional weaknesses/abilities gained as a vampire seperately, something to the tune of "...Empathic Manipulation, and Resistance to Mind, Soul, and Cold. Immunity to disease and poison as a vampire."

 

[Kami95]

@ThePerpetual: Yes, that's what I wanted to do.

Can anyone unlock his profile?

 

[ThePerpetual]

Should be unlocked, now.

 

[Kami95]

Done, thanks.
