Yeah, it's definitely nice. Unfortunately the bbcode for word wrapping images is quite bad and a total clusterfuck when you're looking at it in the live editor. The final results still look good though after you mess with it, and I guess that's all that matters.

Haha. Some guy in Youtube pointed out someone from Markarth, I think it was Hroki. She was probably the best looking NPC I've seen, whatever that means. Sadly she's the only adult in the child faction in the game and therefore unmarriable.

If you have it on PC, there's a way to use console commands to marry her.

I wouldn't do that; you can't remarry even if your spouse dies. :(

Stumped on marrying either Vilkas or Farkas because they're both just awesome. I have my sights set on one of them, but there's a glitch in the Companion questline and it's a hell of an issue, so there's a thin possibility that I'll be able to complete the questline and marry either of them. :(I wish Brynjolf was a contender, though. I love him haha

Currently working on the problem about death of a spouse with the new update, will edit this post upon completion of it, so keep an eye out when I finish.*Update 1: currently and quickly finishing a Thieves Guild quest, then going to confirm or deny the possibility of remarriage in Skyrim as of the current patch.*Update 2: Married Lydia, and ruthlessly shot her several times with the bow, and due to her being my companion as well as wife, only got inheritance. Don't know if you can't remarry if your wife is a companion but I think with the new patch, it wasn't added.Busted: Upon death of your spouse, you aren't greeted with any letter from a courier about possibility of remarriage.
