My level 25 character gets bored with the rapid transit system and decides
to hoof it. Trotting steadily up a backroad, and....hey! There's one of
them little brown doors in the side of a mountain. I've never been in there
before, I wonder if anyone's home?
So lets say you're a smuggler, keeping watch over the entrance to your lair.
You're maybe level 7 or so, and you're sporting a chittim dagger and
actually wearing a few pieces of armor. You've got 12 gold pieces in your
pocket, and doggonnit, no one's going to take them away from you. A
dangerous little fellow indeed. Suddenly a stranger appears at the door.
She's got a rugged look about her. She's unarmored, but every single thing
she's wearing is glowing ominously, as is the Daedric Wakizashi she's
holding, and the glass shield on her left arm. There's a daedric bow slung
across her back. She walks with the light-footed step of someone who's
speed and agility are both boosted to insane levels.
Having the common sense and native intelligence of a muck sponge, you of
course attack immediately, brandishing your fearsome dagger and screaming
lustily about how the invader's gonna die in great pain. The stranger
unslings her bow, and nails you with an arrow that knocks you clean off your
feet. But it was a quick shot with a plain silver arrow, so it didn't kill
you outright; you've got a whole 4 health points left. You're still in the
fight! Of course there's nothing to do but get up and continue your charge,
howling about how if the stranger gives up, you'll be merciful and end her
life quickly.
Are you good, or what?
