Playing Morrowind again for the first time in probably 12-15 years, sell me on a character concept. (lemmy.world)

I just got done installing OpenMW and setting up the I Heart Vanilla mod list. I also added Daisy's Lua Multimark to help with getting around a little better.

My only real requirement is that I want my first character to use spears as a primary weapon, because I miss them so much when I play other Elder Scrolls. Medium armor synergises well with spears and Bonemold looks sweet, so I'm leaning towards that, or maybe a medium/heavy mix later when carry weight's less of a problem.

Other than that, I'm open to suggestion on race, the rest of the build, and factions to seek out. What do y'all think is the most fun for someone coming back to Vvardenfell after so long?

House Telvanni is my favorite faction from any Elder Scrolls game. All of the higher ups are insane in a different way, and you can essentially do whatever you want including killing them with little consequence. If you plan to be chaotic evil/neutral, definitely play through their questline.

I also really like the daedric quests, which are very easy to overlook if you don't wander around or seek them out intentionally.

There are also cool easter eggs to find, including Maiq the Liar, the Captains Guide to the Fishy Stick, Eltonbrand, the Mudcrab Merchant, and Indy's Note to name a few big ones. There are so many easter eggs in Morrowind and it's a lot of fun to seek them all out

Good luck with Eltonbrand unless you're following a specific guide.
