Rules: No Mods, Anniversary Edition. Survival, legendary, Permadeath)
Restrictions: No taking items from barrels, sacks, or containers in towns. No stealing at all—even if it’s “free” or unowned-looking, nothing can be taken from people’s land or homes.
Permitted: If crops are harvested, they must be sold directly to farmers or traded through labor (like chopping wood). Harvesting alchemy ingredients in the wild or picking fliers around town is okay to do freely.
Background (and what happened in game so far):
My character’s name is Kazmirin Velothi.
He was born on Solstheim and is the last of his line.
He came to Skyrim on a pilgrimage to the statues of the Three Good Daedra: Azura, Boethiah, and Mephala, but was captured and taken to Helgen.
After escaping, he warned the Jarl of Whiterun about the dragon attack, out of gratitude for the help he received in Riverwood and from the Stormcloak who aided his escape.
With no money and no gear, he survived day by day through labor, chopping wood just to move forward.
Eventually, he took a carriage to Windhelm, motivated to get home and at least see one shrine—the shrine of Boethiah is what he was able to see.
At the shrine, looking up at Boethiah, he was reminded of the strength of the Dunmer: resilient survivors who endure suffering rather than surrender to it.
With that thought, he left Windhelm for Solstheim.
There, he joined the Redoran Guard as a scout—helping defend the gate against ask spawn attacks and on a mission to push back the ash spawn and make his home safer.
But there is one catch, at the shrine of Boethiah, he found a journal about a sword called Goldbrand… this to him was a sign that he is destined to return to Skyrim and find this sword.
