Explanations are as follows:

Race: The only two races with good scores in Strength, Intelligence, and Endurance were the Imperial and the Dunmer. I chose Dunmer. You could get some better stats in two areas by sacrificing stats in the third, but you'd have to work on the third more. For example, you could go with a Redguard for better Strength and Endurance, but you'd have to make sure to get +5 to Intelligence to counter the lower starting Intelligence.

Birthsign: Honestly, you could go with the Warrior, but you'd have rather poor Starting Magicka. The character you're going for can do very well with the Atronach, as they won't be relying on their spells to cause most of their damage.

Specialization: You're going to be using mostly Melee to do your damage, so Combat doesn't need the boost it gives. Magic, on the other hand, probably won't be used as much, so it's going to need all the help it can get.

Majors

• Blade - You can go with Blunt, if you like, but Blades are lighter, and you don't have a whole lot of Strenth to carry the heavier Blunts.

• Heavy Armor - If you like, you can go with Light Armor instead. Heavy Armor just fits the idea of a Warrior.

• Armorer - Armor and Weapons are only good if they're fully repaired. This allows you to repair them yourself.

• Block - Rather self-explanatory, I hope.

• Destruction - You wanted this, and higher levels are useful.

• Restoration - Useful skill, but painfully slow to level. Having it as a Major and a Specialization will cause it to increase very quickly.

• Alchemy - This is very useful, both for Warriors and for Mage's. There are some powerful Potions you can create that make you much harder to kill. I know of one that allowed me to go on a killing spree in Skingrad using my Fists and not wearing any armor. I even had 4 guards attacking me at one point, and still survived without taking any noticable damage. A must-have skill.

Also, the name was just the first that popped into my mind. Name the character whatever you want.

all of that looks really good. i still have a few more questions. im new to the game so im not sure how to manage magika that well so would it be better to have a birthsign of the mage or warrior instead? and also should i join the mages guild or fighters? and how long is the main quest
