Where in Cyrodiil Would You Live?

[JazzJR]

Why no one want to live in Bravil?

Well i think i would live in the Imperial City. I need a big Town to feel home, but could also think about to live in Anvil.

Anywhere but not Bravil or Hackdirt!!

You're sure you wouldn't like a nice damp open-sewer-side apartment in Bravil?

There are also to many Argonians

Squatting naked in a tree in the Shivering Isles, throwing fruit at passersby until a Golden Saint beat me into a fine red mist for getting her armor dirty.

Failing that, probably roomies with Glarthir, arguing about who's out to get us today, until we finally both hire the Dark Brotherhood on each other - whereupon they take no money because they consider it community service. About the same thing. Plus Skingrad is pretty and has wine. (I require little to keep me happy.)

Or somewhere outside of Bruma, in the year-round snow. I love snow and mountains.

[Jheuloh]

Leyawiin. I don't mind marshy climates, that means there's all sorts of life to be found.

[Excalibuurr]

Bruma, I like the cold environment, and staying in my home gives me a safe comfort feeling from the cold.

[Ethatron]

Why not under the imperial bridge? It's pretty nice view from there.

[VaasDeythra]

Can I not live somewhere in Jyggalag's domain (if he has one yet)? Heh.

Seriously, though, this is a hard one for me because I like most of Cyrodiil's cities.  So let's narrow them down.

As far as villages go, none of them have really caught my eye, and I don't really install village mods.  If I had to choose one it would be Pell's Gate.

Leyawiin - No.  No, no, no.  I could not live in a swamp.  The mud and the water and all those pesky insects...no thank you.

Bravil - No.  That town is a cesspool filled with muck and lowlife scum.  I want to live in a real house, thank you, and I don't want to have to guard my pockets just walking around.

Cheydinhal - It's a lovely looking town in spite of the slight marshy atmosphere it has, and I would be right at home amongst my Dunmeri kinsmen, but I don't want to deal with the gangs of Orsimer.  Those mixed with the marsh mean I'd prefer to live somewhere else.

Bruma - I love this town.  It feels so cozy, and I adore the "imperialized" Nordic homes.  But having lived in northern Indiana for three years now in real life, especially with the winters I've had--and I know it's nothing compared to farther north states, but I'm a wimp from a little pocket in central Indiana that never got bad winters--I know now that I could not tolerate living in the cold all year round.  Maybe I could have a hunting lodge up there somewhere.

Imperial City - The grandest city I've ever seen.  I like many things about it.  Unfortunately, I dislike crowds, excessive noise, and just being around too many people, so while I'd love to visit the Imperial City I don't think I could live there.

Anvil - My feelings for it are absolute adoration.  That Yokudan style just gets me, and nothing beats living on the coast.  But for some reason I can't explain, those reddish roofs just begin to drive me nuts after awhile.  So I don't think I'd live there permanently, not unless I met someone special and stayed for them.

So it's down to Skingrad and Chorrol and I really don't know which one I'd pick.  Maybe Chorrol because while it's still classy like Skingrad I feel like it's also more cozy--easier to relax in.  For me, at least.

 

But I'd rather live in Morrowind or the Summerset Isles!

[oldladyonthemoon]

Wow, that's a necro!

I would live in Skingrad, no doubt (as long as the Count stays locked in his castle!).

[grond]

Nostalgia kept me from locking this.   

I'd live in Chorrol, with Estelle Renoit.  

[Surilindur]

Oh, there was this type of thread around! haha.

Cheydinhal seems nice enough, so that would probably be pretty high up in my list. Not a bad word to say about the town. It is colourful enough and has a beautiful scenery. Also nice surroundings. And the one who sings about Cliffracers. Overall a nice town, as long as any Cliffracers do not show up there.

[DrengrHundr]

Not sure, With my main character being a Nord, I would say either Bruma (naturally) or stay my butt at Battlehorn now that I have it, up and running; needs more guards around though, they lost it once you remember.

[grond]

Not sure, With my main character being a Nord...

My game character Grond is a Nord too (sometimes unclothed hehehe) and a brawling barbaric type, but once he set eyes on the bookshop owner in Chorrol he found himself thinking about flowery poetry and other sissy stuff. He gave her presents which she rigorously ignored, due to the fact that I didn't want to mod it.   Bruma bores him - he smiles at how they try to be like Skyrim though

[beldaran1224]

That one is tough. I love Anvil and Chorrol both (and Skingrad is a close third!). But I could also see myself in Khettienna's Star's Rest, away from everything else, up in the snowy mountains...
