Greetings one and all, my fellow Skyrimmers. As Spring dawns on the world, here we have the next Event. Taking a page from the past, here we have Crossworlds 3!

Now what is Crossworlds, you may ask? The concept is simple. Take your favorite characterer, group, whatever, whether it be your Sailor Moons, your Batmans, your Sith Lords etc, and transplanting them into Skyrim. Now this ain't as simple as say Peter Parker getting isekaied to Skyrim via portal. Rather, the challenge is to transplant them into Skyrim, and make them fit semi-naturally into the world of Skyrim, so say, Spider-Man can be now a Mephala powered vigilante. Now, onto the rules!
“Rules,” such as they are, are equally simple:
- All fictional universes are on the table, EXCEPT for the TES universe.
- Fictional italicized means fiction only
- You can’t reference the character you are basing your build on, or their universe, until the very final wrap-up remarks of the build. This might seem like a silly requirement, but it really added to the fun with the original Crossworlds event. The builds had to be fully realized TES makeovers, they all needed to hang together as standalone entries into the TES universe. And this requirement let readers try to guess your inspiration while they were reading.
- All other Skyforge Character Building Group rules apply (there aren’t many)
- Have fun and get your builds completed by July 30th.

Character Build Turnoffs - A member of the Skyforge community, SkoomaDealer, posted a discussion not long ago talking about what people do not like to see in character builds. Check this out if you are interested to see the dos and don’ts of Skyrim character building.
Character Build Turnons - Another post from SkoomaDealer that you might find helpful.
Ponty's Guide to Character Building - For people new to the concept of character building, or anyone who would like pointers, Ponty has offered an easy-to-follow guide on how to make a quality character build.
Ponty’s “Let’s Build” Series on The First One from DA:I – Another great resource from Ponty; a number of years ago he did a multi-video series on his process for conceiving the Dragon Age Inquisition “big bad” as a Skyrim character. Very relevant stuff!
Feel free to use any past builds on the Skyforge as references if you are new or just want to try a new style! Here is a link to the original Crossworlds event page, and Crossworlds 2 which contains links to all of the builds the community created two years ago.

OK, anyone or anything in particular?
We're supposed to keep the specific inspiration a secret, right? We'll just say that he's going to be an assassin/agent.
No, you don't have to, just like, don't have it be out and out said in the writeup save for the ending
I'll just see if y'all can figure it out. He's been around for a long time and is part of a huge verse. Haha
I was unable to finish my build for the previous event due to real life getting in the way and becoming busy as hell which is a huge shame because that would have been the first build I would have posted here.
Sign Me Up! I want another chance to try out an event build! Especially because I know EXACTLY what I want to do.
Oh really, any specifics?
If you've seen a particular movie that came out very recently that features a Whistling Wolf Character, then you already know where I'm going with this build.
Actually, that movie was so good that I can think of two or even three builds based on characters from that movie. I'm assuming I can only submit one for the contest.
Count me in!
I would like to submit a build for this event.
I'm interested sign me up-
