Welcome to this week's Character Build Showcase, where we take a look at some of the high quality builds that you can find within the Character Build Group.
For this weeks showcase we've chosen an absolutely brilliant modded build by Elysium entitled the Bouyant Armiger, and to pique your interests here's an excerpt from the build itself:
Much like my Hand of Almalexia build, this is another ancient Dunmer knightly order, but instead of devoted to the Tribunal Goddess of Mercy, they are instead devoted to everyone's favourite self-quoting Warrior-Poet, Vivec. With the usual heavy helping of lore my builds contain comes some stand-your-ground archery combat, with some snappy roguish stealth moves, all bound together with crusader-y magic.
A common feature of all of Elysium’s builds is her thoughtful use of TES lore to breathe life into the builds she creates, and nowhere is this more true than with her latest creation the Bouyant Armiger. Despite the fall of thier beloved god the Bouyant Armigers continue to live by Vivec's teachings and uphold many of their old traditions. The most somber of their traditions is the forging and enchanting of the traditional glass armor by the newest recruits to the order, for without the presence of their god they have no way of knowing if these recruits are truly ready to follow the ways of Vivec. The enchantment mod Summermyst is an integral piece of the build, adding many unique enchantments whose effects embody a recruit’s favoured teachings from Vivec’s own Lessons.
Intricately connected lore and roleplay are a staple of Elysium's builds and her works are perfectly tailored for roleplay enthusiasts who want to feel like they are truly a part of the Elder Scrolls universe. The Bouyant Armiger completely immerses you in the role of one of Vivec's sworn knights, and the build does so without holding your hand and dictating every minute aspect of your character's day. You simply feel like you are the character the lore has already established.
So check out the Bouyant Armiger and check back soon for another Character Build Showcase. Keep on building and it may just be your build we feature next!
Comments
Almalexia has her Hand and Vivec has the Buoyant Armiger, does Sotha Sil have a knightly Order of his own?
I dunno. Worth looking up for sure.
If he doesn't, make one up. I've been thinking of doing something like that for a build
I could see him wearing Dwarven gear and stuff.
Well it is the most brassy armor
Ebony for Almalexia, Glass for Vivec, and Dwarven for Sotha Sil? Hmmm... any takers for a build like that? I’d definitely like to Elysium make one to complete the trinity but everyone’s free to try their hand at it.
I might have tried my hand at the idea
Great choice this week guys!
One of many great builds by Ely! Good pick.
