Cool backstory! I did dwarven playthrough once and my backstory for him was that he was the most advanced "automaton" the dwarves ever built: a living, breathing dwemer formed from the blood of the other mer races. And when the real dwarves disappeared, he remained in slumber. Only to awake with the return of the dragons and reclaim his right as heir to all that the dwarves left behind. Funnest shit I played in Skyrim. Just got some dwarven mods and I was off to the races.

Bro I saw the thumbnail and was thinking it would be so cool if they made a clockwork apostle build and I click and see the full title AND YOU DID I’ve been wantin this since the hand of almalexia build
Nice build. I'd like to see a modded version. Some of the Ordinator perks would be great for this one. And he'd be a good fit for a Legend/Legacy of the Dragonborn playthrough.
This is very similar to a build I did. My character was a Dwemer obsessed High Elf. He grew up fascinated with the lost Mer race and after researching them, he started to believe that the Dwemer were the superior Mer race, this lead to him being an outcast among his people. They would say to him "If they were so superior, where are they now?" This question is what spurred him on. He detested the Daidra and Aidra and had no real intrest in the "common" magics but more in tonal magics. Also when he discovers he is Dragonborn he believes that the thum has a connection to tonal magic. He came to Skyrim to learn more about the Dwarves and explore every ruin he can in the land.
I really do love these builds. First, the fact you spend so much time and creativity coming up with unique origins, backstories, and personalities adds a dimension to the game. Second, because they challenge me to come up with my own origins, backstories, and personalities for my own player characters.
I definitely will try this Build! I just imagined also using the Flames , Frostbite and Sparks spell as like a build in flamethrower in the armor roleplay wise anyway , i think it would fit him well.
Nothing like a build to start today off. Glad to se a Dwemer inspired one! I wonder if we could ever see an Ayleid inspired build later down the line. Thanks Fudgemuppet!
This has to be one of the most creatively interesting builds you guys have ever made. I love the magical-machine vibe of it, a concept I usually really like in fantasy; the hybridizing of mechanical/conventional science with metaphysical properties. The backstory was told brilliantly and I look forward to a future build video. I do have an unrelated question though if you don't mind my asking: While obviously the perk selection shows no perk related mods, the animations and HUD suggest some other mods were used. I'd like to know what mods you guys were using for the footage, just out of curiosity.
Wow this is awesome , plus they now have a wintersun add-on that lets you worship each of the tribunal, I smell another play through coming, awesome video Scott you knocked it out of the park again
I've used your build videos as a base to make my own Elf characters. Celebrimbor (Snow Elf), Elrond (High Elf), Galadriel (Sea Elf), Thranduil (Wood Elf), Thorin (Deep Elf), and Sauron (Dark Elf). I thank you for your build videos and can't wait to see more
When I started this build, I did the Forgotten seasons quest and got a unique Dwarven chestplate named "Ward of the Seasons" which gives a 10% resistance to shock frost fire and poison damage. I also used Hopesfire and Trueflame, since they were, at least to my knowledge, Dwarven in origin.
The aesthetic on this build is killer, definitely one of my favorites. I know this is probably a recycled question but would you guys ever do an oblivion build? Anyway thanks for the consistent great content!
That is a versatile build, wards, resistances, magic resistance , armor cap. and spell absorption on defense. Summoning, draining, ranged and melee too. Nice.
My most recent character (that I've actually continued beyond 2 hours) is Hrun Fire-Heart. Hrun and his family lived near Rorikstead, farming and keeping up Hruns family lands as best they could. Their life was simple, but it was a happy life nonetheless. The worries of greater men did not touch the happy family... until the Thalmor arrived. Hruns wife Gunhilda, and his son Frolo, witnessed as a contingent of Thalmor Justicars came to their quaint town, searching for Talos worshipers. Hrun and his family loved the gods, but they were followers of Shor, and did not actively care for the worship of Talos. Yet despite this, one amongst the people pointed to Hrun and his family as secret Talos worshipers. Petty jealousy had led one of Hruns neighbors to accuse him and his family, knowing full well what would happen. Hrun watches as his wife and son were butchered by those blasted elves, and he looked with utter hatred upon the man who had pointed his finger. Then, a sword was thrust through his gut, and he was left to die. Before he could, a man found him and took him in, nursing him to health. The man was a priest of Talos, who had watched from the hills the horrible proceedings below. He assured Hrun that he would survive, and kept him well. When Hrun recovered, despite the wishes of the priest, he set out to find the traitor. It took him a while, for the man had fled when he discovered Hruns intentions. Yet he did not flee far enough. Hrun discovered the man, and slew him on the streets of Solitude. A Thalmor ambassador intervened when Hrun was apprehended. Only then did Hrun recognize the bastard Rulindil, who had been established as an interrogator in the Thalmor Embassy. Hrun was apprehended and, at the request or Rulindil was imprisoned in Northwatch Keep. What Rulindil would not anticipate, is that Hrun was crafty, and he escaped from his imprisonment to find his way to Ulfric. Hrun is a Nord warrior, who I played as an inexperienced warrior. He managed to trek all the way across Skyrim, but he failed his test to defeat the Ice Wraith, and set out to the Companions to grow as a warrior. When he discovered their affiliation with the beast blood, he left disgusted. Eventually he joined the dawn guard, finding that he was again outmatched. Understanding the power of the beast blood, he submitted to its power to defeat Harkon. Eventually he also discovered his destiny as the Dragonborn, and having seen the division that Ulfric imparted on Skyrim, and discovering that Ulfric himself was an unwitting pawn of the Thalmor, Hrun realized the only force capable of stopping the Thalmor was a united Empire. Hrun fought bravely, and was vindicated when the nord Hrun admired most of all joined his cause. Balgruff showed him his choice was the true one. He went out to drive out the rebels, and reestablish a stable empire and defeat the dragons.
I did this build but used the Falkreath home and made an armory, trophy room and enchanter tower. I made new armor as I progressed using Dwarven, Dwarven Mail then Dwarven plate and mixed the brawlers Gauntlets at one point and the trophy room with Dwarven spheres and spiders. Put all them up in the armory and named them MK I- MK V as his skills upgrade and he finds what works better just really pushing the Iron Man style playthrough and had the Batman style showcase for the different outfits. Was SO much fun. Excellent build, lots of fun!👏
I really enjoyed this video. The ideas for this character are fantastic and I enjoyed your backstory for him as well as your presentation. A mod that would be fantastic for a roleplaying character like this one who wants to be researching and improving their shouts would be Thunderchild from EnaiSiaion, the creator of Ordinator, which I would also recommend for this character as well since both mods bring in things that would expand and improve the roleplaying of them. (Edit: This was the first of your videos that I have watched so I didn't know that you already knew about at least most of these mods I mention from here. You mention several of them by name in your Hircine's champion video that I am watching right now. I will keep the rest of this post here anyways in case I mention a few you didn't know about or haven't tried.) Thunderchild fixes and improves the vanilla shouts as well as adding 29 new ones as well as some buffs your can earn by doing tests of faith for Kyne. The new shouts aren't just gained by finding new words, but rather by meditating within an added library within High Hrothgar upon the meanings of the dragon words thus learning alternate meanings to the words you already know and gaining you the new shouts. This sounds exactly like something a seeker of knowledge and somebody who wants to study the dragon language and become as powerful with the Thuum as they can be. The part of the Ordinator mod that grabs my attention when thinking of this character roleplay is actually within the overhauled Smithing tree which grants you the ability to create and improve upon Dwemer Autocannons as a new combat option so a person roleplaying this character would alternatively be able to ignore the Archery skill tree completely if they want to and use the Dwemer Autocannons as their primary ranged option. Or you could always take both options to double down on your ranged combat options. As a general thing I usually recommend people to pick and choose from the mods made by Enaisiaion that interest them. In my experience they are all fantastic, work together well, and all together just do an excellent job of enhancing everything they touch upon, and most of his mods also have a minimalistic version that keeps the things they change closer to vanilla with more minor improvements. One of the best things about his mods is that he makes sure that anything that your character gains from these mods also are also obtained by the npcs of the game, both hostile and friendly. The mods from him that I always use for all of my playthroughs are the following: Ordinator - Perks of Skyrim = This mod is a complete perk tree overhaul that adds more flavor and better incentivizes the usage of the perk trees that you want to use. Imperious - Races of Skyrim = This mod completely changes up the differences in the races making them actually feel different to play as well as adding a new racial perk/power that is gained through a quest. Odin - Skyrim Magic Overhaul = This mod improves and fixes vanilla Skyrim spells as well as making scrolls and staffs more viable. It also adds scrolls, spells, and staffs inspired by past TES games. Apocalypse - Magic of Skyrim = This mod expands magic in the game by adding 151 balanced and lore-friendly spells, 31 for each school of magic, to be found in all the same ways you can in normal Skyrim. Seeing as this mod is from the same creator as Ordinator you also don't have to worry about the Ordinator perks not working with the new spells. Thunderchild - Epic Shouts and Immersion = This is THE mod to get for a Thuum user in my opinion for the reasons I stated above. I just love how as I learn the words for the vanilla shouts I can then go to High Hrothgard to meditate upon my understanding of the words to try and learn new meanings to them. Andromeda - Standing Stones of Skyrim = We all know that most of the original standing stone effects were generally bad and the magic absorbing stone was the only one that was truly powerful. This mod changes that by replacing the effects of all the stones with two new effects that are all handy to have for specific build types or for certain play styles. It also incentivizes finding all of the standing stones by granting a 3rd more powerful effect/power if you have travelled to the locations of all 13 standing stones. Wintersun - Faiths of Skyrim = A religion mod that is excellent for roleplaying. You can not only become a worshiper of the Nine, but also everything from the Daedric Princes, racial specific pantheons, and a few miscellaneous deities that don't fit into those other categories. There are 50 deities in all that you can follow, each granting their own sets of blessings for praying at their shrines as well as a bonus for being a follower as well as a higher perk/power granted by becoming a devotee after you raise your bond with your chosen deity high enough. You can of course ignore the deities yourself if you're roleplaying an atheist while worshipping NPCs gain the benefits from their prayers. Summermyst - Enchantments of Skyrim = adds 120 more enchantments while fixing bugs with and improving the vanilla ones to keep a balance so that you will want to use both the old and new enchantments. I didn't notice it until I was checking on the names of the mods for this posted comment, but he also has a mod called Tonal Architect that adds some spells and upgrades to give more options to Dwemer themed characters. There are also overhaul mods of his for werewolves and vampires that are supposed to improve and balance them so that they make for viable playstyles even in the late game. I haven't used them yet, and I don't plan on ever making a vampire, but I am planning on trying a werewolf playthrough soon and am looking forward to trying out the mod. He also has a combat overhaul mod that I would try, but I have decided not to risk further modding my combat system since I have it to my liking already. Huh... I just proofread all of this and just realized that instead of just a comment this was more of a small essay on a set of mods that could be used as well as an advertisement for EnaiSiaion's mods. If you do decide to try out any of these mods I am suggesting sometime then I hope you enjoy them as much as I have.

Ive been a big fan of fudgemuppet since i was in middle school and im now out of high school and i love the new style of the builds keep up the good work
What a coincidence, I just finished a dwemer-focused playthrough, but it was focused on a mod that adds the ability to build animunculi and weird dwemer artifacts.
@@staxsonsuntoast1639 No, the one I used is The Timelost Dwemer. The main feature of the mod is a playable dwemer race but it also add smithing/enchanting perks for animunculi and other devices
@@madengineerkyouma I LOVE the timelost dwemer. By far my favorite race mod. Had so much fun mixing it with requiem for the ultimate difficult dwemer experience.
The Dwarven Player home that you can get blew my mind. I though that Hendraheim was amazing as a house, but Nchuanthumz absolutely blew it out the water. Build Dwarven automatons, repair and ENTIRE facility, the home itself is well hidden deep in a cave, and YOU GET A THRONE ROMM FOR YOURSELF!
This makes me think it's a final form of the mechanist build you guys did for og Skyrim and the remastered In se Skyrim love this can't wait for the last tribunals build
This build video inspired me to make my own role play of a Breton that is skilled in magic but is also a Dwemer enthusiast. I tend to make pure spell-blade character, but my dude is going to be a researcher of the dwemer and a warrior first with magic being a back up
These builds are perfect for me, someone who talks to myself WAYYY too much while playing games. Now I can do it for a reason, as opposed to just being crazy...I might still be crazy.
I'm playing as the clockwork apostle right now . I have around 30-40 hours into the playthrough with some mods and it's already really fun amazing roleplay 😃
Tools of kagrennac and aetherium weapons and armor are great for this build and a mod called ordinator adds 400 more perks including some that allow you to make dwemer turrets that can be pretty op which fits for this build
I just got Skyrim AE. I’m in the middle of a Dragonborn build playthrough (sword, dagger, shield, thu’um). But I may start again, with this. Since TES 3 morrowind, I’ve had a near obsession with the Dwemer. Kagrenac especially. There’s nothing quite as mysterious as the Dwemer race in the elder scrolls universe.
A great mod for this build also being the namesake of the build is the Clockwork mod. A huge Dwemer inspired story with a fantastic player home to match with the build.
there is the dwarven armoured mudcrab for an animal companion for this build, however Solstiem also offers the steadfast dwarven spider and sphere in Kagrumez. I don't have AE so can't play this build as you are, however there are mods that add the Tools and the Visage of Mzund could offer an appropriate alternative helmet.
I'm playing through this character right now but.. I roleplay that after I have become the champion of Hermaeous Mora that one of the may gifts of knowledge he gave me was how to undo the stunted magical abilities. This allows me to began to use various magical skill trees and makes a lot of sense. He taught Mirraak various things and gifted him with many things that made him powerful. So why not? Anyway so after I became champion and worshipped him to 100 percent with Wintersun of course I started leveling my Alteration, some Desctruction, and Restoration and thinking about leveling a very little bit of Conjuration for soul trapping and summoning Ash Spawn or Attonachs. I am really loving this build.
Loving this one, I did a similar one around last Christmas but with orcish gear as I never use it so I thought I'd do a build around it... Id done a Falmer one just before but had considered for a while going through a few with a few characters each day bouncing around starting with a all steel, then orcish, dwemer, elven, glass and ebony and maybe dragon and daedric... originally when I first had skyrim back in the day I was obsessed with always having dwemer build and did a few but then quit, always loved the whole golden look and bulk giving a sort of exotic Knight look 😄, haven't done a dwemer build since before skyrim came out of the ps4 and xbox one...
I may have commented last time I saw this video, but this is similar to the character concept I used for my eso charater, I tend to have a cast of recurring characters I bring into differnt settings, usually as that worlds "iincarnation" one of my characters is usually a formerly wheelchair bound cyborg who was taken in by my main villian's father, in this setting, none of her usual missing her legs stuff, I'm going to go with something like on an adventure exploring a dwemer ruin shes inured, but the treasure she saught brought her to clockwork city, where eventually they restore her legs with cybernetics.
Are yall gonna start releasing more Builds now? That would be awesome! I've been trying to come up with a new build for my new modlist, but I want to stay away from the main quests

Nice build. I'd like to see a modded version. Some of the Ordinator perks would be great for this one. And he'd be a good fit for a Legend/Legacy of the Dragonborn playthrough.
ordinator is amazing
Wow, that is THE dwemer related build I always wanted, but never found till now. Thanks for the great build guys!!!
This is very similar to a build I did. My character was a Dwemer obsessed High Elf. He grew up fascinated with the lost Mer race and after researching them, he started to believe that the Dwemer were the superior Mer race, this lead to him being an outcast among his people. They would say to him "If they were so superior, where are they now?" This question is what spurred him on. He detested the Daidra and Aidra and had no real intrest in the "common" magics but more in tonal magics. Also when he discovers he is Dragonborn he believes that the thum has a connection to tonal magic. He came to Skyrim to learn more about the Dwarves and explore every ruin he can in the land.

I think you forgot to pin this...
its almost like todd howard watched this video and was inspired by scotts voice as the clockwork apostle for the hunter in starfield.
Oh man this is perfect! I’ve been really into all things Dwemer lately and needed a build for it
Damn the visuals are so stunning
I really do love these builds. First, the fact you spend so much time and creativity coming up with unique origins, backstories, and personalities adds a dimension to the game. Second, because they challenge me to come up with my own origins, backstories, and personalities for my own player characters.
I love the direction these builds and backstories are going! Absolutely fantastic!
I definitely will try this Build! I just imagined also using the Flames , Frostbite and Sparks spell as like a build in flamethrower in the armor roleplay wise anyway , i think it would fit him well.
Thanks for a Vanilla Dwemer build I only ever see Modded ones. I love the Dwemer aesthetic all the Brass Robots and steam is my favorite.
Taking my time with elden ring right now but when I inevitably play Skyrim again this’ll definitely be the build I go with.
Nothing like a build to start today off. Glad to se a Dwemer inspired one! I wonder if we could ever see an Ayleid inspired build later down the line. Thanks Fudgemuppet!
the line "the clockwork apostle ponders his purpose and place in a great chain of causality" is a work of art
And it somehow comes from a skyrim build video
imagine how many takes it took him to say that 😂
I don't think you understand how much I LOVE that you guys are doing builds again, and the way you're doing it, amazing. Thank you.
This has to be one of the most creatively interesting builds you guys have ever made. I love the magical-machine vibe of it, a concept I usually really like in fantasy; the hybridizing of mechanical/conventional science with metaphysical properties. The backstory was told brilliantly and I look forward to a future build video.
I do have an unrelated question though if you don't mind my asking: While obviously the perk selection shows no perk related mods, the animations and HUD suggest some other mods were used. I'd like to know what mods you guys were using for the footage, just out of curiosity.
I'm wondering the same thing. The animations look great, especially the dual weil animations.
The HUD mod is Nordic UI
Really like this one. I’d love some kind of knight build using the Spell Knight armours!
Seriously one of the coolest build concepts you guys have ever done! Your content will always keep me coming back to Skyrim for more playthroughs
Wow this is awesome , plus they now have a wintersun add-on that lets you worship each of the tribunal, I smell another play through coming, awesome video Scott you knocked it out of the park again
I've used your build videos as a base to make my own Elf characters. Celebrimbor (Snow Elf), Elrond (High Elf), Galadriel (Sea Elf), Thranduil (Wood Elf), Thorin (Deep Elf), and Sauron (Dark Elf). I thank you for your build videos and can't wait to see more
When I started this build, I did the Forgotten seasons quest and got a unique Dwarven chestplate named "Ward of the Seasons" which gives a 10% resistance to shock frost fire and poison damage. I also used Hopesfire and Trueflame, since they were, at least to my knowledge, Dwarven in origin.
Can you make a list of all the mods you have included in this video? It looks flawless!
I think this is my favorite of all your presentations. Speaking as the character took it to a new level for me
The aesthetic on this build is killer, definitely one of my favorites. I know this is probably a recycled question but would you guys ever do an oblivion build? Anyway thanks for the consistent great content!
That is a versatile build, wards, resistances, magic resistance , armor cap. and spell absorption on defense. Summoning, draining, ranged and melee too. Nice.
My most recent character (that I've actually continued beyond 2 hours) is Hrun Fire-Heart.
Hrun and his family lived near Rorikstead, farming and keeping up Hruns family lands as best they could. Their life was simple, but it was a happy life nonetheless. The worries of greater men did not touch the happy family... until the Thalmor arrived.
Hruns wife Gunhilda, and his son Frolo, witnessed as a contingent of Thalmor Justicars came to their quaint town, searching for Talos worshipers. Hrun and his family loved the gods, but they were followers of Shor, and did not actively care for the worship of Talos.
Yet despite this, one amongst the people pointed to Hrun and his family as secret Talos worshipers. Petty jealousy had led one of Hruns neighbors to accuse him and his family, knowing full well what would happen.
Hrun watches as his wife and son were butchered by those blasted elves, and he looked with utter hatred upon the man who had pointed his finger. Then, a sword was thrust through his gut, and he was left to die.
Before he could, a man found him and took him in, nursing him to health. The man was a priest of Talos, who had watched from the hills the horrible proceedings below. He assured Hrun that he would survive, and kept him well. When Hrun recovered, despite the wishes of the priest, he set out to find the traitor.
It took him a while, for the man had fled when he discovered Hruns intentions. Yet he did not flee far enough. Hrun discovered the man, and slew him on the streets of Solitude. A Thalmor ambassador intervened when Hrun was apprehended. Only then did Hrun recognize the bastard Rulindil, who had been established as an interrogator in the Thalmor Embassy.
Hrun was apprehended and, at the request or Rulindil was imprisoned in Northwatch Keep. What Rulindil would not anticipate, is that Hrun was crafty, and he escaped from his imprisonment to find his way to Ulfric.
Hrun is a Nord warrior, who I played as an inexperienced warrior. He managed to trek all the way across Skyrim, but he failed his test to defeat the Ice Wraith, and set out to the Companions to grow as a warrior. When he discovered their affiliation with the beast blood, he left disgusted. Eventually he joined the dawn guard, finding that he was again outmatched. Understanding the power of the beast blood, he submitted to its power to defeat Harkon.
Eventually he also discovered his destiny as the Dragonborn, and having seen the division that Ulfric imparted on Skyrim, and discovering that Ulfric himself was an unwitting pawn of the Thalmor, Hrun realized the only force capable of stopping the Thalmor was a united Empire. Hrun fought bravely, and was vindicated when the nord Hrun admired most of all joined his cause. Balgruff showed him his choice was the true one. He went out to drive out the rebels, and reestablish a stable empire and defeat the dragons.
With the addition of that unique axe from the fishing creation club content. It fits the aesthetic of this character very well
The narration from the pov of the character is amazing! I frigging love your channel dude!
These videos are amazingly well made you guy's did a spectacular job!
I did this build, it took awhile to gather the items, but it rocks! I also added Stendar's Hammer as well.
Definitely the coolest build I’ve seen so far.about to start a new profile so i can try this!
I love Dwemer builds! Thank you fudge!!!
I’m working on this one right now, it’s such a fun build. I love diving into dwemer ruins and smashing people with sunder
I did this build but used the Falkreath home and made an armory, trophy room and enchanter tower. I made new armor as I progressed using Dwarven, Dwarven Mail then Dwarven plate and mixed the brawlers Gauntlets at one point and the trophy room with Dwarven spheres and spiders. Put all them up in the armory and named them MK I- MK V as his skills upgrade and he finds what works better just really pushing the Iron Man style playthrough and had the Batman style showcase for the different outfits. Was SO much fun. Excellent build, lots of fun!👏
"Facts don't care about your faiths..."
Benuriel Sapirius DESTROYS woke Daedra worshipers with facts and logic"
this is so cool!! love the footage used for the backstory part, 10/10 cinematography
I really enjoyed this video. The ideas for this character are fantastic and I enjoyed your backstory for him as well as your presentation.
A mod that would be fantastic for a roleplaying character like this one who wants to be researching and improving their shouts would be Thunderchild from EnaiSiaion, the creator of Ordinator, which I would also recommend for this character as well since both mods bring in things that would expand and improve the roleplaying of them.
(Edit: This was the first of your videos that I have watched so I didn't know that you already knew about at least most of these mods I mention from here. You mention several of them by name in your Hircine's champion video that I am watching right now. I will keep the rest of this post here anyways in case I mention a few you didn't know about or haven't tried.)
Thunderchild fixes and improves the vanilla shouts as well as adding 29 new ones as well as some buffs your can earn by doing tests of faith for Kyne. The new shouts aren't just gained by finding new words, but rather by meditating within an added library within High Hrothgar upon the meanings of the dragon words thus learning alternate meanings to the words you already know and gaining you the new shouts. This sounds exactly like something a seeker of knowledge and somebody who wants to study the dragon language and become as powerful with the Thuum as they can be.
The part of the Ordinator mod that grabs my attention when thinking of this character roleplay is actually within the overhauled Smithing tree which grants you the ability to create and improve upon Dwemer Autocannons as a new combat option so a person roleplaying this character would alternatively be able to ignore the Archery skill tree completely if they want to and use the Dwemer Autocannons as their primary ranged option. Or you could always take both options to double down on your ranged combat options.
As a general thing I usually recommend people to pick and choose from the mods made by Enaisiaion that interest them. In my experience they are all fantastic, work together well, and all together just do an excellent job of enhancing everything they touch upon, and most of his mods also have a minimalistic version that keeps the things they change closer to vanilla with more minor improvements. One of the best things about his mods is that he makes sure that anything that your character gains from these mods also are also obtained by the npcs of the game, both hostile and friendly.
The mods from him that I always use for all of my playthroughs are the following:
Ordinator - Perks of Skyrim = This mod is a complete perk tree overhaul that adds more flavor and better incentivizes the usage of the perk trees that you want to use.
Imperious - Races of Skyrim = This mod completely changes up the differences in the races making them actually feel different to play as well as adding a new racial perk/power that is gained through a quest.
Odin - Skyrim Magic Overhaul = This mod improves and fixes vanilla Skyrim spells as well as making scrolls and staffs more viable. It also adds scrolls, spells, and staffs inspired by past TES games.
Apocalypse - Magic of Skyrim = This mod expands magic in the game by adding 151 balanced and lore-friendly spells, 31 for each school of magic, to be found in all the same ways you can in normal Skyrim. Seeing as this mod is from the same creator as Ordinator you also don't have to worry about the Ordinator perks not working with the new spells.
Thunderchild - Epic Shouts and Immersion = This is THE mod to get for a Thuum user in my opinion for the reasons I stated above. I just love how as I learn the words for the vanilla shouts I can then go to High Hrothgard to meditate upon my understanding of the words to try and learn new meanings to them.
Andromeda - Standing Stones of Skyrim = We all know that most of the original standing stone effects were generally bad and the magic absorbing stone was the only one that was truly powerful. This mod changes that by replacing the effects of all the stones with two new effects that are all handy to have for specific build types or for certain play styles. It also incentivizes finding all of the standing stones by granting a 3rd more powerful effect/power if you have travelled to the locations of all 13 standing stones.
Wintersun - Faiths of Skyrim = A religion mod that is excellent for roleplaying. You can not only become a worshiper of the Nine, but also everything from the Daedric Princes, racial specific pantheons, and a few miscellaneous deities that don't fit into those other categories. There are 50 deities in all that you can follow, each granting their own sets of blessings for praying at their shrines as well as a bonus for being a follower as well as a higher perk/power granted by becoming a devotee after you raise your bond with your chosen deity high enough. You can of course ignore the deities yourself if you're roleplaying an atheist while worshipping NPCs gain the benefits from their prayers.
Summermyst - Enchantments of Skyrim = adds 120 more enchantments while fixing bugs with and improving the vanilla ones to keep a balance so that you will want to use both the old and new enchantments.
I didn't notice it until I was checking on the names of the mods for this posted comment, but he also has a mod called Tonal Architect that adds some spells and upgrades to give more options to Dwemer themed characters.
There are also overhaul mods of his for werewolves and vampires that are supposed to improve and balance them so that they make for viable playstyles even in the late game. I haven't used them yet, and I don't plan on ever making a vampire, but I am planning on trying a werewolf playthrough soon and am looking forward to trying out the mod. He also has a combat overhaul mod that I would try, but I have decided not to risk further modding my combat system since I have it to my liking already.
Huh... I just proofread all of this and just realized that instead of just a comment this was more of a small essay on a set of mods that could be used as well as an advertisement for EnaiSiaion's mods. If you do decide to try out any of these mods I am suggesting sometime then I hope you enjoy them as much as I have.
I love the cinematic path you guys are taking with your videos.
damn those some nice animations lol
@ 00:08 LET ME IN LET ME INNNN
This backstory narration is fantastic!
A star walks into a black hole but doesn't seen phased.The black hole then turns to the star and says, "I don't think you understand the gravity of this situation."
Loving the direction this channel has achieved backstory build and all I wanna see it for the witch doctor female redguard next 🙌🏾
Well Lads your vids over the years have defo developed for the better cheers guys
Hearing you guys voice is like greeting an old friend. Gosh i love this channel!
Ive been a big fan of fudgemuppet since i was in middle school and im now out of high school and i love the new style of the builds keep up the good work
i would say that the mask of Mzulft fits this very well too. Also the Aetherium shields also fits good.
I'm loving this build!!! And especially the narration! Keep up the awesome new format!
What a coincidence, I just finished a dwemer-focused playthrough, but it was focused on a mod that adds the ability to build animunculi and weird dwemer artifacts.
Same I think it's called tonal architecture
@@staxsonsuntoast1639 No, the one I used is The Timelost Dwemer. The main feature of the mod is a playable dwemer race but it also add smithing/enchanting perks for animunculi and other devices
@@madengineerkyouma I LOVE the timelost dwemer. By far my favorite race mod. Had so much fun mixing it with requiem for the ultimate difficult dwemer experience.
@@viderevero1338 I mixed it wit Vokrii's for the lockpicking perks to have the means to both build and take over animunculi.
The Dwarven Player home that you can get blew my mind. I though that Hendraheim was amazing as a house, but Nchuanthumz absolutely blew it out the water. Build Dwarven automatons, repair and ENTIRE facility, the home itself is well hidden deep in a cave, and YOU GET A THRONE ROMM FOR YOURSELF!
The tools of kagrenac mod with its own versions of Kagrenacs tools along with the Aetherium Power Armor is perfect for this build and back story
Perfect! I was just thinking about doing a Dwemer based build.
I'm so glad you're still making build vids!
This makes me think it's a final form of the mechanist build you guys did for og Skyrim and the remastered In se Skyrim love this can't wait for the last tribunals build
This build video inspired me to make my own role play of a Breton that is skilled in magic but is also a Dwemer enthusiast. I tend to make pure spell-blade character, but my dude is going to be a researcher of the dwemer and a warrior first with magic being a back up
With ordinator perk mod you can smith-craft dwemer balistas that can be placed (stationary) and fire bolts at enemies
I did not expect Skyrim videos to stay popular after February 25
With so many animation mod that adds interaction now Skyrim video showcase become more epic
These builds are perfect for me, someone who talks to myself WAYYY too much while playing games. Now I can do it for a reason, as opposed to just being crazy...I might still be crazy.
Made this build when the tools first came out. Now I gotta reason to make it again I’m lit.
The big boots and they way the hammer is held and the running animation remind me of Fable
I'm playing as the clockwork apostle right now . I have around 30-40 hours into the playthrough with some mods and it's already really fun amazing roleplay 😃
For anyone looking to use mods with this build, the Ordinator perk overhaul lets you create Dwarven turrets via the smithing skill tree.
What mods are you using? The game looks so good!
Good build ,for the next build please do a sheogorath champion
Wow a new build? within a month of the last one? I gotta pinch myself, this has to be a dream!
Tools of kagrennac and aetherium weapons and armor are great for this build and a mod called ordinator adds 400 more perks including some that allow you to make dwemer turrets that can be pretty op which fits for this build
I really enjoying Mahty's AIO dwemer weapons & backpacks. Also Hyperion Exoskeleton
This is the perfect build for me because I just love Dwemer stuff
Loved the backstory.
What mods do you use for movement / animations? they look so smooth
A Sotha Sil-inspired build! Nice!!
I just got Skyrim AE. I’m in the middle of a Dragonborn build playthrough (sword, dagger, shield, thu’um). But I may start again, with this. Since TES 3 morrowind, I’ve had a near obsession with the Dwemer. Kagrenac especially. There’s nothing quite as mysterious as the Dwemer race in the elder scrolls universe.
So good team! Love it, especially the second of lag between enemies getting hit with Spellbreaker and then going flying 😂
Thanks for the build im making this as soon as i get home from work
Once again another great roleplay build. Keep them coming.
I love how in the Backstory his voice is slightly mechanized
Great video! Is there anywhere we can find the current mod list you guys are running for visuals etc?
Michael is so good he can make Raid Shadow legends interesting to listen to
Man you gonna make me start playing Skyrim again
A great mod for this build also being the namesake of the build is the Clockwork mod. A huge Dwemer inspired story with a fantastic player home to match with the build.
there is the dwarven armoured mudcrab for an animal companion for this build, however Solstiem also offers the steadfast dwarven spider and sphere in Kagrumez. I don't have AE so can't play this build as you are, however there are mods that add the Tools and the Visage of Mzund could offer an appropriate alternative helmet.
I'm playing through this character right now but.. I roleplay that after I have become the champion of Hermaeous Mora that one of the may gifts of knowledge he gave me was how to undo the stunted magical abilities. This allows me to began to use various magical skill trees and makes a lot of sense. He taught Mirraak various things and gifted him with many things that made him powerful. So why not? Anyway so after I became champion and worshipped him to 100 percent with Wintersun of course I started leveling my Alteration, some Desctruction, and Restoration and thinking about leveling a very little bit of Conjuration for soul trapping and summoning Ash Spawn or Attonachs. I am really loving this build.
Thx for uploading 2 days in a row
Loving this one, I did a similar one around last Christmas but with orcish gear as I never use it so I thought I'd do a build around it...
Id done a Falmer one just before but had considered for a while going through a few with a few characters each day bouncing around starting with a all steel, then orcish, dwemer, elven, glass and ebony and maybe dragon and daedric... originally when I first had skyrim back in the day I was obsessed with always having dwemer build and did a few but then quit, always loved the whole golden look and bulk giving a sort of exotic Knight look 😄, haven't done a dwemer build since before skyrim came out of the ps4 and xbox one...
Your build videos used to be good and they're only getting better and better over time, love them! keep it up!
I may have commented last time I saw this video, but this is similar to the character concept I used for my eso charater, I tend to have a cast of recurring characters I bring into differnt settings, usually as that worlds "iincarnation" one of my characters is usually a formerly wheelchair bound cyborg who was taken in by my main villian's father, in this setting, none of her usual missing her legs stuff, I'm going to go with something like on an adventure exploring a dwemer ruin shes inured, but the treasure she saught brought her to clockwork city, where eventually they restore her legs with cybernetics.
This is a really fun build! Thanks for this.
Bro this build is overpowered AF!
Are yall gonna start releasing more Builds now? That would be awesome! I've been trying to come up with a new build for my new modlist, but I want to stay away from the main quests
Love this bulid! Great idea with the voice changer for the backstory! :D
This build looks so fun!!! I think I'm gonna try this!!
Reminds me of my attempts to make an armor set that mimics the Dwarven Centurion using the Visage of [can't spell] and the armor from Lost Seasons.
