Life of Kadraan part 3:Skyrim hates me

One small log for Kadraan,one Giant tree for Khajiit kind.

(sorry for the dellay on this post but it took awhile.from now I will be doing smaller post's more frequently)


As I prepares for his journey to windhelm,I realise that my iron armor ain't gonna cut it,so I do some job's around Dawnstar
to try and afford some more steel ingots to make some Better Armor,I manage to make some boots and chop some wood to make My shield,but when finished,I can't quite afford the ingot's to make the main piece,I sell leigelf a piece of quicksilver ore,and sell some quicksilver ingots to rustleif but it's still not enough to afford the 30 steel ingots I need to make the armor,anoyed I may have to spend another day in dawnstar,he goes over to iron breaker mine to see if there is any ore laying about.

there was no ore in the mine,but on the way out I go over to the smelter to see if I have any iron ore I can smelt.though I had no iron ore I can smelt some steel with some iron ingots and charcoal Though.managing to make 3 I talk to rustlief again to buy some steel,I JUST Manage to afford the steel,and with it make some new steel armor.

Now decked out in steel,Im heading for windhelm.

Heading back to the inn for the night I notice karita is playing the flute,and she's doing a good job at it,alot more enjoyable than her singing.

Instrument skill:8.5,Singing skill:-10

I rent a room for the night and sleep,in the morning,I say my final goodbyes to dawnstar,and head for windhelm.

Goodbye dawnstar! im not going to miss you!

not much interesting occurs but I did take some snapshots for a more Visual look at my trip.



If you can't tell,im hunting.
forgeting I have a bow to hunt with



Yikes!
I wouldn't want to fall of that!

Pwned! B***h

After a while I find some horkers,and naturaly,Attack them.They arn't happy about it.

No wonder skyrim ain't sending trolls after me,It dosen't have to...

My armor holding against the tusks of the beasts,Flailing my mace round my head trying to look threatning enough to scare the beasts, though this is very hard to do when you are skinnier than a Carrot.

As I thought, it fail's to keep them at bay.So I swing the mace in thier Vauge direction and hope it smashes them in the face.

(no screenshots were taken during this combat as I was trying to dodge so much,sorry about that.)

The horkers are very slow,So they give me enough time to Smash the ribs of one and break the tusks of another.Im doing well so far.
While im Doing the "dance of death" around one horker,the other manages to get behind me and bash me with his tusks.Ow.Im losing health rather too quickly than to my liking.I fell another one of the beasties before the other puts my steel armor to the test by bashing and charging it with his tusks.

OK.time to do what kadraan does best.RUUUUUUUNNN!!!

Sprinting away from the horker with a 1/5 of my health bar.fighting 4 horkers at once? not the best idea.Readying my bow And Drawing an Arrow back to full.I take aim at this horker.and...fire! ok the arrow didn't exactly kill that horker but it did incresse my archery skill,this time I draw another arrow back and let it fly.

It hit's the horker Dead in the face,I take the tusks and eat the meat and leave the rest for the wolves.

Near the end of the day I find a Khajiit wandering in the wilderness,possibly heading for Winterhold which I passed a while ago.

"I saw a mudcrab the other day,horrible creatures."

Passing my fellow Khajiit I stumble apon a bear trap with two skeletons in it.A while later there is a camp with a dead horker on a table,Oh well,guess they died while hunting horkers then.

My life is so bad,I really don't care about sleeping in such cold weather.

Thinking not of how they managed to somehow kill themselves in my dreams I fall asleep in the camp bedroll.

         Part 2

Life of Kadraan part 2:god damn wolves!

There's my Basic needs mod kicking in.

I wake up by the roaring fire of the camp,Forgeting what I came to skyrim for I walk to the beach hoping it will jog my memory.

As I walk to the beach  I see some strange grass,and then I remember why I came to this Frozen Iceland,My life's dream was to be an alchemist,so I pick some of the grass and eat it,What? that's what alchemists do! they don't just mix random plant and animal matter together,they eat it first to see what the effect is,then they mix it with somthing with the same effect,that is how potions are made.

Moving on.as i walk further closer to the beach I see some wolves,trying to get around them without having to kill them.

Nice wolfy,Good Doggy!

they charge at me,Flailing my mace around like a lunatic.I manage to kill one,cracking several of it's rib's in the process,turning to face the next,jumping at me I Push him away with my shield and smashing his Wolfy face in with my mace.

Looting thier pelt's I move over to an overturned boat,as I move closer some VERY angry mudcrabs appear,with look's in thier eyes that say "Im Going to remove your Eyes With my claws!"

First the wolves and now this?!

At first they seemed threatning,but when you hit them with a big steel mace.not so much.after eating thier Chitins(Alchemy!)and looting the boat,I gain Some Chitins,A semitar,some Clothes for when I go to one of the bigger citys,A book,And some Random junk.

However.in that random junk,there is a Minor Healing potion,which to say the least,will be very Frickin helpful!

Im suprised that a frost troll hasen't tryed to kill me yet...

After Looking at the calming ocean for 5 minutes I Walk back to dawnstar.Just when im about there a stormcloak comes walking past and,not very nicely,mentions my race under his breath.I hear him.and deside that his days as a racist have come to an end.
Smacking the back of his head with my mace,He stumbles but his health barely drops,im now thinking Oh S**t! im gonna die!
I keep smacking and bashing him but to no avail,he's still wining
and not by a little bit,By A long shot,but if the god's love anybody,it's kadraan,because straight after my potion is gone.
I level up! Thank You talos! I take a perk in smithing,not particularly helpful right now,but I can make some desecnt armor out of steel now.

My health also goes up 10 and right back to full,Smacking that stormcloak hard in the head,he slump's to the ground dead.

But before I can celebrate two bandit's are firing arrows at me,
but once again one of them is dead before I get there.This again?

I turn to see not a Group of soldiers,but a lone female wood elf.
Runing at the last bandit,An arrow flys into his arm,kneeling on the ground,I pull him up and smash his face in with my mace

Owned You Son Of a B***h!

The bandit's lying dead in the snow I turn to see the wood elf who helped me kill the bandit's.Im completely Smiten By her!

(no Comennt)

Wow,now if only I had an amulet of mara,I would mary her.moving on.
From there I go straight back to dawnstar,but not before killing a goat.

Note to self:never bring a mace out hunting,
it's very inefective.

After killing the goat.I walk back to dawnstar,to hopefuly makesome steel armor and upgrade my mace.after breaking down some of the armor and weapons,I level up again.this time I take a heavy armor perk.

I manage to forge A helmet,some gauntlets and a scythe!

With the power invested in me.
I Name Kadraan,The Kitty Reaper!

Altough Kadraan hasn't started alchemy yet,he has all the requirement's to do so,Armor for traveling,Ingredient's and a big scythe to kill any anoying animal's on his journey,tommorow,he leaves for Windhelm!

Life of Kadraan Part 1: This ain't Elsweyr...

Don't trust This Kitty,He has sharp claws!

After a long voyage,involving mostly vomiting,Kadraan has finaly arived in Skyrim,to learn the ways of the alchemist.


Writers note:I am playing skyrim as an NPC,instead of adventuring and quests,I must live as boring a life as possible,I must Eat,Drink and sleep Regularly,thanks to a mod,it's not optional


The other rules i must heed to are as follows:

• -No fast traveling,carriages can be used.
• -Walk everyware,unless hunting,fighting or fleeing
• -No Reloads,I do not possess a Divine black & white screen,if skyrim gets a dead kitty,it keeps it.
• -No cheating,I used a mod to start in dawnstar(Alternate start,look it up on the Steam workshop)I did have to cheat to get the beggars clothes and money,but that was it,no more than that.
• No Questing/Adventuring,crafting tutorials and simple "fetch quests" are OK if accepted.
• No stealing,that is not what npc's do,however,Kadraan is an "opportunist" so if it's not Technicaly stealing,he'll take it.

ok now that that's out of the way let's get to the actual blog shall we?


After leaving the boat and exiting the dock,a town-guard mentions that the town is plagued by nightmares and that they are not natural,tough S**t I ain't helping.I see a man hammering something on a barrel,I talk to him and find out his name is Leigelf,and he own's quicksilver mine and he'll pay for any quicksilver i dig up.


With that i deside to enter the mine and see if i can find a pick
to dig up some ore.

This mine is,damp,dusty and Hot.Just like Elsweyr

This definitly look's like a mine,I immediately search around for a pick,my search goes unsuccessful,untill I stumble upon a table with a pick on it,im about to grab it when I think,what if someone own's this pickaxe? it dosen't say it's stealing and no one seems to need a pickaxe,but maybe it's leigelf's or the smelter boy's?


In the end I deside to borrow the pick and return it when im done

Elder scrolls fact #1:In oblivion Pickaxes Were Completely F***ing Usless.

I mine all the ore vein's in the mine and leave the pick on the table where I found it,but a fellow miner comes along and say's I droped it and shoves it back into my pocket,well how caring! but I cant explain to Edith that I don't own the pick so instead I drop the pick again and,as fast as I can while walking,head towards the exit.


After leaving the mine I counted my lumps of ore,15 pieces,not bad for 2 hours work.I smelt the ingots and head over to iron breaker,there are so many picks in that mine that i don't even debate on if I should take one or not,I just do.

Tell me,Dose this mine realy need all the Frickin Picks?

After that I smelt some iron,chop some wood,make steel,and make a sword,and throw up after eating a stale apple

Never eating another apple for as long as I live!

heading over to the inn,some people are talking about nightmares again,i pay no attention,instead I talk to the innkeeper thoring and rent a room and buy some food,after that im left with 31 gold from my previous work.


realising it's not that late I head out for a walk in the wilderness,not much happens untill I see some hunters chasing a deer.

<><><><><><>

No don't kill that deer! what did he do to you?!

In rage of them intently hurting such a defenceless creature,I draw my sword and sprint after them.when I catch up to one I kill her very swiftly and take her weapons and armor.





<><><><>

This is what happens when you mess with kynareth!

After dispatching of her I pursue the next.swiftly ending his life,by stabing him Through the chest.

I wonder if the deer is still alive.
I Frickin hope so!

Looting his corpse and hers I gain:


A bow
Some iron arrows for it
various pelts
some gold
and hide armor


Before heading back i investigate a campfire,when I aproach someone is runing in my dirrection,it takes me a moment to realise he's TRYING TO KILL ME!!!


I slash with my sword,he blocks.I jab,thrust,swipe,swing and poke him down to half health but he hit's me with his steel mace,Hey! no fair! it's bad enough you have a shield and better armor,but you also have a steel mace? come on skyrim
Be resonable!


But just when I thought I was doomed,he falls dead infront of me with an arrow in his back,what? did he just get shot by his own team mate?


I loot his body and put on his duds and charge at the archer with MY new mace.
but before I get to him he's dead with arrows in him,OK,What the hell is going on?


I turn around to see a group of stormcloaks bows aimed at the Bandit on the hill,who was also firing arrows at me.

What the Heck is going on here?!?!?

Before I can even blink the other bandit is dead falling of the cliff he was happily shooting from.
I loot his body and the other archers and gain several arrows and some money,The stormcloaks leave and Im left to loot the camp,finding more money and some food.
I turn back to the dead archer and smirk





<><><><><><>

Well,you did deserve it.

after that I remember the room I rented at the Inn,but I don't want to walk all the way back so instead,I sleep at the camp,surrounded by dead bodys.
