    Hire me :)

    p.s. Nos, bogatyri aren't воины света, they protected Rus', not praised the Sun :) Or did I forget my folklore? I think AlanG is closer to the truth. Also, I might be mistaken, but I recall some guy who had power as long as he was barefeet (so he touched the ground). Not sure, but it does sound like a DK using earthen heart. There were no dragons though, only Serpents (almost same thing though).

    Note that I said that they fight evil such as Змей Горыныч and Соловей Разбойник. Thus while they are not specifically holy, they use their powers to fight unholy things.

    I agree with that :) Just that they aren't holy. And Соловей Разбойник wasn't necessarily unholy, it's just an image of an enemy of Rus'. It's not like bogatyri fought undead or demons only. They were kinda like witchers but also protected the motherland

    Forget the Bogatyr question

    :(

    Along that vein, though, in the end it seems like it'd simply be too difficult to be and look like a Bogatyr here :( and that I'll just have to stick to playing my Imperial Nightblade.

    Sorry I didn't mean to dismiss your question, I just was fascinated with that compilation of styles. I stick by my recommendation of stamplar and I'd go as Nordic for the race.

    Forget the Bogatyr question damn fine work putting it all together...those EP styles are epic!!!

    No problem. I don't know why I was motivated to spend an hour making that, but yeah... it's there now for easy reference!

    I've favorited this thread as well, so I can always access it now when crafting armor lol.

    You can definitely make it work if you want to. A Stamina Dragonknight wielding a Two Handed weapon is my recommendation. Remember that any metal can be dyed silver and any leather/cloth dyed brown.

    You can make almost any character. There is plenty to work with!

    Unfortunately there's no typical slavic armor and helmets. :(

    :(

    But during planemeld and (maybe) dragon break, a denizen of another fantasy world might've ended up in Coldharbour. :p

    If I end up making a Bogatyr alt, would that be the most plausible background for him story-wise, or is there actually a land on Tamriel that's more or less synonymous with Rus that he could be from? :o
