The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Game Guide

Naturally, this means we've been staying inside and checking out all of the games on display, including Bethesda Softworks' latest entry in The Elder Scrolls series: Skyrim. The striking yellow face paint was one of the many face-paint options available via the face-paint slider. After almost getting devoured by a wolf, we called up the item menu and outfitted our orc with some weapons and armor. The battle ended swiftly, and after a brief lock-picking game, we looted a massive, two-handed battle-axe from the dead man's chest. Either method consumed the item(s). Our first potion failed, but the second succeeded because two of the items shared the "resist frost" property. This information was then recorded in the item's description for future reference.

This opponent was able to deflect our basic attacks, but by holding down the attack button, we brought our character's weapon around for one powerful blow. The bandit buckled under the weight of the attack and crumpled at our feet.

From the two-handed skill set, we chose to improve the first skill, barbarian, which granted our character 20 percent more damage per rank when using a two-handed weapon. The skills improve with use, so by attacking enemies with the two-handed axe, we were improving our two-handed skill.
