In Which Kendeshel Journeys to Skyrim, Again
This is take two of Kendeshel’s starting session in my Legacy of the Dragonborn Skyrim playthrough. As I previously posted, I had to start over because I found annoying mod breakage that I didn’t want to put up with! Action is almost the same as in my previous starting session, minus stopping in Dragon Bridge, plus a bit more exploration in Helgen given that this playthrough also includes Alternate Start.

In Which Kendeshel Comes to Skyrim in Search of Relics
NEW PLAYTHROUGH! And this is a big chonky playthrough start, because in this one, I’m running Legacy of the Dragonborn. And Alternate Start. Which means I had a whole new way to experience the start of a Skyrim run, with a whole big new gigantic mod to play with. This is going to be fun. 😀

In Which Elessir Escapes Helgen and Becomes a Dragonborn
After extensive doinking around with my mods to try to recover a workable set of them, finally got a load order I like working on both the VM and the Steam Deck. So time for a new modded playthrough, y’all.
And this time I’m switching it up even more and playing a dude, Elessir the Dunmer, named for Elessir a’Natharion from the Free Court books.
So let’s do that destroying Helgen thing, shall we?

In Which Finds-The-Way is Revealed as Dragonborn
Typical initial action for one of my playthroughs, getting started as a Dragonborn, getting thaned, getting Lydia, etc. But this time with lots of German language geekery.

In Which Finds-The-Way Finds Her Way Out of Helgen
It will probably surprise absolutely none of you that after the implosion of Harrowhark’s run, I didn’t take long at all to fire up a new playthrough on the Deck.
Welcome to the beginning of my run with Finds-The-Way, Argonian!

In Which Kendis Does a Lot of Side Questing
These two sessions for Kendis were basically all about trying to beat down her side quests on the quest journal. Highlights: re-running Bleak Falls Barrow, having a brawl with Elrindir, killing a dragon at Autumnwatch Tower, killing another dragon at Bonestrewn Crest, fetching Wylandriah’s remaining items and returning them to her, and last but not least, acquiring some Daedric mail!

In Which Kendis Recovers the Dragonstone
Kendis’ second session was standard “starting off a Skyrim game” action–i.e., going to Bleak Falls Barrow. But given that this is a run with Survival Mode on, this played out rather differently than it’s done in my prior playthroughs!

In Which Harrowhark is Revealed as Dragonborn
Harrow’s second session is still holding pretty well to my usual startup of a Skyrim playthrough, just for the sake of getting through the parts that are absolutely required to get a game going. So in this session, I finished Bleak Falls Barrow, returned to Whiterun, killed Mirmulnir at the Western Watchtower, and was made thane of Whiterun.
Also, observed a lot of things that were a result of the mods!

In Which Harrowhark Escapes Execution and Dragonfire
Welcome to the very first official post for Harrowhark the Imperial’s run through Skyrim! This is my seventh official Skyrim playthrough, and it’s my first using more than just the USSEP for mods. I’m using 75 total mods in this playthrough, and so commentary for it will include a lot of observation about what the mods do to the world in general.
This will also be a playthrough in which I’ll be targeting playing as a vampire, a necromancer, and a member of the Dark Brotherhood.
Let’s get started, shall we?

In Which Skyrim Together Reborn is certainly a thing
My wife Dara found out about Skyrim Together Reborn, a mod that allows you to play Skyrim in a group with your friends, and as soon as she and I knew about this we knew it was a thing we wanted to try. So did Dara’s friend Mel, who has better Internet than we do, and who was therefore able to host a server.
Last night, we tried a playthrough session together and it turned out to be pretty frigging hilarious. 😀
