Hello all, new here. I have Elder ScrollsIV:Oblivion for playstation 3.
Could anyone tell me the best and most fun sort of characters to play.

All of them, all 44,955,169,983,360 possible combinations of characters, all seemingly balanced are quite fun to play if you consider oblivion fun to begin with.

(Oh, and that number is accurate, there really are almost 45 trillion combinations of characters you can play in this game)

it depends on what kind of combat you like, look at the races page and it shows you the kind of attribute bonuses each race gives and pick one that is to ur liking

I like very violent combat.

...

We all have different preferences. For example, I love the Altmer. They're the only race I ever play, and The classes I make are quite similar:
Sorcerer
Alt.
Conj.
Des.
Myst.
Ill.
Alch.
Hvy Amr.

or

Philosopher
Conj.
Des.
Alt.
Myst.
Res.
Blunt.
Ill.

or simply a pure Mage.

If you want a 'violent' character, I'd stick with melee fighting, just a generic warrior. But it all depends on you.

If you like warrior type characters, I've got one piece of advice. As Ironic as this is, do not choose the "Warrior" birthsign for your warrior type character.

The reason for this is because as a warrior you'll be spending much of your time leveling up skills that bring multipliers to strength and endurance, and since the maximum attribute is 100, starting off with a super high strength or endurance for a warrior character will not go very far.

I'd recommend the Steed or Tower for personal tastes. If you like to run right up to the enemy at incredible speed, kill them quickly and run to the next, go with Steed. Or if you like dungeon exploring but don't always have a lockpick on hand, the Tower is a good choice as well.

and good character to start with for warrior type stuff + violence chose the redguard, he starts with more health and Strength, and a good birthsign would be the thief.

Most wild and strange character?

THANKS...
And what about most scary character.

you can actually make any character scary looking, just change up their hair around, black perhaps, and make their facial expression in an angry sort of way, make the eyes slanted...long nose....bright red eyes...whatever you find scary
