I can't remember. Read the description it'll say 'if target dies within X seconds, it's soul will be trapped' or something to that effect. If your enchanting level is currently quite low I probably wouldn't disechant it yet as you won't be able to enchant anything that good for a while.

I think the Axe of Whiterun is actually randomly generated. I can be any kind of axe enchanted with any kind of enchantment.
At least, that's what I read.

Good stuff, thanks broseph. And yeah, it looks like the Axe of Whiterun does trap souls.
edit: ^ Oh damn. Mine turned out to be a soul trapper. That's cool that it's random.

I used to give a fuck about those jokes... But then I took an arrow to the knee.
I kid, I kid, they're hilarious. Skyrim's delivered some great memes already. That, Lydia and FUS RO DAH.

If you just start leaving your crap scattering on the floor will it stay there?
Yeah I've started doing that, but its a pain to manually pick up stuff when I need it. Kind of hard to find what I'm looking for when theres approximately 100 iron daggers of banishing on the floor

Nice. I'll have to start doing that soon too but I wasn't sure if it would disappear on me.

If you don't want to buy them, Dwarven ruins tend to have a boatload of them in chests and as random drops.

The house in solitude is nowhere near as good for storage as the one in windhelm.

You know there are multiple containers you can use in Breezehome right (when fully upgraded theres about 10)?

Err...no I didn't know haha. I seem to remember dismissing upgrading it as a waste of money and never thinking about it again lol.

I found my first stray a few days back, and I was trying to get somewhere that I hadn't unlocked yet and was annoyed that I found him at just that time. So I just did my "climb the mountain" trick where I slide all around the sheer cliffs. Anyway, I do this for about 30 minutes until I finally find the place, and the dog is there in the bushes barking at me! I thought he was an enemy dog and almost killed him but he laid down and wagged his tail.
I was so surprised he found me and had been apparently following me 'on the ground' that whole time I was up in the cliffs.
Make your own via alchemy. Links below

http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Fortify_Enchanting
They're randomly generated on Alchemy Vendors. Not sure if there's ever really a constant supply.
If you're planning on making your own:
Fortify Enchanting: Blue Butterfly Wing, Hagraven Claw, Snowberries, Spriggan Sap
Fortify Smithing: Blisterwort, Glowing Mushroom, Sabre Cat Tooth, Spriggan Sap
Off-hand, I'm not sure what the highest a Vendor can get you is. I want to say it is only +50%.

I think the first mod I want is the "better cities" mod.
The towns in this game are pathetically small and lacking in buildings.
Fucking January can't come soon enough.
I just found that chick with the free archery as well. I suppose if I would have climbed the mountains around Helgen I could have had the free levels when I was just starting out...maybe they assume you should have?

Haha. The first time I saw that was on the video of the girls doing a piano/violin rendition of the Skyrim theme. Casually scrolling through the comments, and saw "I used to be able to play this like you... but then I took an arrow to the knee" I laughed. Hard.
No idea why, but it got me.
What's the Lydia one? "I'm sworn to carry your burdens -_-"?
The ones without walls, therefore not really making them towns, kind of piss me off. There's only like 5 actual towns in the game and yeah they're not that big. But they put all 9 or whatever it is on the map making you think they're all real towns, but nope some are even smaller than Riverwood.
Thank you.
Edit: Also how can I get master level conjuration spells? Unfortunately I maxed out my conjuration before talking to the conjuration specialist at the mage's college and doing his quest. So I can't just buy them now -_-.
I'm using Jordis now. I like her much better than Lydia, and enjoy her battle cries. "DIE BEAST" To a goat. For no reason. Just walking along, nice day. Goat walks by, and I continue on. Then I hear her scream "die beast" and turn around, and she's putting arrows into a poor, defenseless goat. What the hell, Jordis?
On a side-note, Karita at the Dawnstar inn cannot sing. At all.
I think Aela is dead in my game.
Pancakes
hot, steaming, as melted butter slips into the cracks, drizzled with sticky sweet syrup OH GOD
That, and her stats are based on when you first met her. So, towards the later parts of the game, she needs amazing armor and weapons to be useful.
(Besides Aela is much hotter anyway :])
"I'm sworn to carry your burdens" is endearing, in this whole "I will rocket you off a cliff" kind of way.
Besides, it's better than the Guards accusing my character of wanting to complain about stolen sweet rolls. Is there some grand theft of sweet rolls going on that I'm not aware of? Is there an "Of Stolent Sweet Rolls" book I've just not found?
Oh well. Gives me an excuse to murder guards.

The guards are all "Watch it, sneak thief!" around me when I've never been caught stealing anything ever. Just cause i'm a wood elf that's talented in stealth I must be a thief, huh! Buncha jerks.
(Ok so I have dabbled in stealing, but very little and only one character ever figured it out enough to send assassin's after me like 50 hours ago)
WOW.... check out this girls song. amazing

The last half is amazing.
This utterly frustrated me on my first character. I just kept assuming that my save/reloading when I was Pickpocket grinding had fumbled somewhere (since the subtitles sure as hell did) and they just ... knew. Them and their beady little eyes, following me. Watching my every move.
That or the fact I stole all their armor.
That's very nice. There should be a mod just for that.
When this was first posted in the thread, it had about 1,000 views. Glad to see it's up to nearly 400,000 - it's an amazing rendition of the song and theme. I've listened to it a dozen times.

This, too.
The ones with walls piss me off the most.
Solitude: T-shaped town with maybe 2 or three buildings on each side of the street.
Whiterun: three "districts" lol. "Have you ever been to the cloud district...I didn't think so" Um, bitch, the Cloud District is just the fucking castle.
Markath: looks the best, but then you realize it's just a really big city with one building every 500 feet
Windhelm: the "Grey Quarter" is an alleyway with three or four doors.
I miss Vivec. I miss the Imperial City and that place left me disappointed as well. Why does every town have only three shops? Why do(did) I have to run to multiple cities just to sell the shit I pulled from a dungeon (before I got the economy mod)? Why isn't there an actual capitol? Why isn't there houses for non-essential people that I can enter and just rob without worrying that I'm fucking up a story line?
Hell, some of the villages feel like they have more personality.
It wasn't as bad back when I thought you could marry her.
Something about the "I'm SWORN to carry your burdens" sounds like a sarcastic wife quip about her vows.

Great, just got my first CTD (while fighting a dragon). Never had one before the recent patch.
Have heard this so many times now and it just doesn't get old. It's a bit of a cheat she uses voice enhancing post processing, but still awesome none-the-less.
The second half is just...wow...I wish they have that bit in the actual game.
Actually, you can marry her. She's listed in the guide as one of the females you can marry, it just turns out Bethesda messed up the code for her and she doesn't have the trigger to activate it when you talk to her with the amulet on. There's a console command you can use to reactivate it and marry her.

I just figured all the guards in my game were racist against khajit.
I find it hilarious that they force most of the khajit to trade outside of towns because they're dirty thieves, yet I can just stroll into the palace in full thieves guild armor without a problem.
The small towns are kind of annoying (especially for selling loot) but I think they add to the atmosphere of Skyrim as a more desolate, inhospitable place. Though a few larger cities in the southern areas could have been justified.
