Pirates of Tamriel: A Skyrim Character Building Contest

Posted by Curse on May 16, 2019 at 3:15pm

Welcome one and all to the very first Skyrim Character Building contest here on The Sky Forge! This will be a rare opportunity to pit your character building prowess against that of your fellow members, by making a build over the course of 6 weeks around a given theme... xMi29GsdoID7JtWdQ2u0X4ugefrpL6C7Jyyp44xe5ON2VnqkhLFtPOlwJo4VfXOZHuIveOMa2_hMzt3jgIyXKTBi3j3KhIiSSG_cWhm1Ckw48sKVrEyVs9E4935LuZktpF3_G6MC

Pirates, Marauders, Corsairs, Smugglers, Scavengers, Cut-Throats, and Treasure Hunters, the list goes on. Whatever comes to mind when you think of pirates is what this contest is all about. This contest ought to present a unique challenge for participants. Piracy in its many forms has always been a long standing aspect of Tamriel's history

There's no limits or restrictions on the skills, mods or equipment you may use, but your entry must revolve around the theme of piracy (such as a smuggler or sea faring marauder, or perhaps a corsair under the employ of a major naval power). Your only real limitations are your imagination.  You may work in teams of no more than 2 people total. Once the competition closes, a panel of judges (see below) will judge each submitted build based on the criteria below and announce the winner! Here are the prizes…

    Contest Build: The Cutthroat
    Hey guys, welcome to my Contest Build for the Pirate Event. For a change, I wanted to stick to a cliche which surprisingly is hardly touched, as well…
  • Curse June 15, 2019 at 7:59am

    We're exactly one week away from the cut off date so feel free to post your builds. 

  • Prototype June 18, 2019 at 1:37pm

    My build will be posted tomorrow.
