Shoot, definitely meant to say material. Good catch, I'll change that when I get a hold of my laptop.
Along the way, Athias checked a few of the old urns, discovering ancient coins. They weren't made of the same gold as septims but there was a good chance they could be traded or sold to any collector interested in the stuff, so he pocketed them.

I agree. Paradoxical will likely be the name of the game when it comes to the MCs deeper characterization. Though I feel like there was a bit of disconnect. He has no problem using illusion to kill; its the other possibilities continued practice will open up that makes him apprehensive. After all, in a world full of magic and gods, I think many would agree that killing someone isn't the worse thing you can do to them. The average joe beleives they're above doing certain things only to end up doing said things once they have power. But that's just the ramblings of someone exploring the world of literature. Anyways, hope you're enjoying the story, peace out.
Self control? That wasn't exactly his strong suit.

Hey, if that means no more working or paying taxes I'm all for it. I'd throw myself into that basement 😂

I always wondered about images. Is that something people really like? I might consider it but that seems like something I'd do if I had enough money saved up for an artist I can hire. Or I could take screenshots from the game myself. Either way, it's not something I planned on but not something I'm against either. -The MC is human with very strong sith roots. I haven't detailed his appearance much but it'll show up sooner or later. Possibly via a P.O.V switch. While I do consider myself a descriptive writer, it never flows right when I randomly drop a description of a person while writing from things from their perspective. Maybe it's just me but I almost never wonder what I look like when I'm going about my day so it seems unnatural. Anyways, hope you enjoyed the chapter. Your other questions will be answered as things progress I think.

Definitely some interesting ideas in there that I might use to some degree and others not so much. -I get the whole harem argument but there'd also the otherside of that coin, where a true sith chasing power wouldn't hold themselves back with any form of long-term attachment to others since thats just a form of reliance. Either way, while I don't argue that a lot of that stuff could be common in a society dominated by sith, it also isn't the sort of story I'm interested in writing. If I kill my own enjoyment, this story will definitely die. -The cryo thing would be a great idea for spin off books or what ifs but realistically, I don't see that being a believable conclusion with the MC's current personality. Who knows, he might change a little over the course of the story. Assuming I finish this story and want to write something cool that isnt meant to be taken 100% seriously, like a faction headed by the MC showing up and going head to head with the likes of Palpatine during the Empire era or foiling his plans during the clone wars, it is an idea worth considering. -As for all the other stuff, a lot of that can be considered spoiler territory and I'm not too keen on spoiling. I will be looking more into the art of the small though (that ability hadn't even been on my radar). Even if I don't use what you bring to the table, it's nice to see lore/force abilities for future stories.

Feels good to finally post. Who knew a week could feel so long? Hopefully I'm never inactive for that much time again.

It's Sith warrior, but you'll see other characters from the empire from time to time as their stories brush or cross each other.
"So, you're the one my father went out of his way to have brought to the academy?" A woman questioned Erin the moment he entered the well-lit chamber that had been at the end of the hall.

A lot of these are in deep spoiler territory but I do intend to have this follow the Sith warrior storyline with differences and more details in plenty of places. It's sort of a novelization of how I saw my main character. I don't have any 100% percent plan for pairings since that's so far off but I'm generally torn between Lana or Jaesa. Not against both if I can make it make sense but we'll see. I'd rather not compromise quality to force in unnecessary romance. anyways, hope you enjoyed these first few chapters.

Unlikely unfortunately. Still settling into my new job so I didn't have as much time as I wanted to write. I did manage to post a bit of that star wars story I've been talking about if you're interested though.

Sometimes Skyrim is like a fever dream that never ends.
He'd gotten use to leveling up but Athias still found himself grinning as he awoke to the familiar alert. Level ten felt like a massive milestone considering he started all of this by nearly freezing his ass off back on those mountains that now served as his hunting grounds from time to time.

An illusion focused MC would certainly be interesting to follow. I'm sure one of these days we'll get one of those stories. At this point Skyrim will never die; I feel like there are a good bit of people who get their first bit of game oriented programming experience from making mods. I dabbled a little when I was in school but never got very far.

Serana is top tier, especially with all the mods there are out there for her. As for Recorder, I used her very briefly back when I first got into modding. Back then I broke my game so often I never got to see most of the content I downloaded. Definitely need to give her another shot when I get the chance.
"That's…" Auri trailed off. She wasn't smiling but she wasn't frowning either. It's almost as if she was doing her best attempt at a poker face, hurriedly restraining whatever emotions the simple question summoned. A hard task for someone as expressive as her.

The best thing for everyday life and an adventurer. Just so many things you could do.
