Who Will You Choose In Skyrim?

There was an interesting post on the Bethesda Softworks forum Sunday afternoon by Sammuthegreat that detailed a lot of information about the upcoming classes you can choose from in Skyrim. There have been a lot of gamers waiting for this kind of information to be revealed, and now the people waiting for Skyrims November release date can take a look at this list and maybe get a better idea what kind of character suites them.

When you play a huge immersive RPG like Skyrim, you are bound to put in over one hundred hours if you are looking to fully complete the game. When it comes to picking a character, you want to get it right the first time. I need to mention that this isn’t a final list of perks and abilities, so if there is something you think is missing; it might still be in the game. So take a look at this list and figure out who you are going to be.
