Skyrim: Path of The Amazon, Dark Brotherhood Destroyed!

The DB femme fatale, Astrid, laid out before The Amazon.

Meanwhile, in my version of Skyrim... I'm really behind on posting episodes, but suffice to say I've got tons of footage I need to just get out. I've finished the main quest, and am moving on to Dawnguard... which I am liking since the lovely vampire princess Serana (whom I will feature soon) is barefoot in her default outfit (thanks to the Greaves and Legwraps mod) and makes for a cute (and thankfully unkillable companion). It will be some time till I get to posting that though.

Anyway, I just have to chronicle that I have recently disposed of The Dark Brotherhood. Yep, I have shut off an entire questline by exterminating the assassins of Skyrim instead of joining them. The Amazon slew their leader, Astrid, in single combat, in a secluded cabin, and left her lying on the floor, her sexy soles exposed (among other things). Following that, she reported it to a guard, was directed to the Penitus Oculatus' Captain Mero, and was sent in to clean out the Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary in Falkreath. Needless to say, they were cake.

I perhaps noted early on in The Amazon's roleplaying aspect that she would NEVER join the DB, especially since they have tried multiple times to kill her. She has though joined the Thieves Guild (but has halted for now short of becoming Guildmaster so she can hold onto the Skeleton Key... heheh), she did so to have a network of spies and intelligence throughout the land, and considers their antics, while larcenous, in the end passable. The murderous ways of the DB however would never be considered by our heroine by any measure.

Anyway, I'll try to keep posting Skyrim and try to post more pics here too. Hoping I find ways to show more sole in every ep, but it's very difficult. Well, we learn by doing. Later then!

Skyrim: Path of The Amazon Poll Result, Update!

The Amazon's ready to fulfill her Dragonborn destiny...

Okay, the people have spoken! About a week ago I asked everyone to help me decide which side in the Skyrim Civil War should our Heroine, The Amazon, join? The Imperial Legion and the Empire, or to the Stormcloak Rebellion?

The results are out and more than half of all votes went to keeping our Barefoot Dovahkiin NEUTRAL. So I will acquiesce... we won't join either side, and just keep on truckin', er, questing.

To be honest, I am very partial to the Empire, mainly because I like General Tullius and Rikke quite a bit. Ulfric for me is a wild card choice, something you'd do just to see the other side of things. Anyway, I will keep the Status Quo for now and just keep on the path of the Dragonborn.

As of right now, The Amazon is Level 54. I have gone and decided to finish the Main Quest and take care of Alduin. After that, we'll see about taking her through the DLC quests and other stuff. She's almost too powerful at this point, but she can still die if I'm careless. But still- Dual wielding legendary swords she can pretty much kill anything- including dragons- in a couple of power attacks.

Anyways, I'll be posting vids for the next several weeks. We'll see where her adventure leads her!

Skyrim: Path of The Amazon (The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim PC) UPDATED!

The Amazon is ready to make her mark in Tamriel...

I’ve always said, perhaps one of the best games for footfans is The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim. Basically it’s an awesome fantasy sandbox where you can live your sword-and-sorcery dreams with impunity- and with the right mods, every hot woman in the game can have model-gorgeous feet you can ogle to your heart’s content (even if sometimes you have to literally fight your way to them). As any longtime reader should remember, I tried a Skyrim playthrough series before but at the time, some mods I require for a proper playthrough weren’t available- basically since I needed my heroine to go barefoot all the time, it severely restricted what armor I could/could not wear- a big handicap.

Since then, several mods have surfaced that make this new barefoot heroine playthrough possible. One is Greaves and Legwraps, which enables my heroine to wear most any leg armor type and still go unshod. Even better, the modder put out a Replacer version that distributes the greaves/legwraps to the game’s female NPCs (sadly as of yet the Forsworn have been snubbed).

Then there’s Feminized Level Lists which basically makes most common NPC characters female- these include Hold Guards, Bandits, Thalmor, Necromancers, Forsworn and more. So encounters with enemies often are girl-on-girl catfights in this game.

Finally, the new mod I really like this time is FemFeetReDesigned. As we all know, Skyrim’s vanilla (unmodified) feet for its character models are nothing short of HIDEOUS, which makes the original FemFeet mod a godsend for us. Not only do the feet become more detailed and lifelike- I will go as far as saying that FemFeet makes Skyrim’s females have the best-looking ingame feet I’ve ever seen (and I’ve seen a lot). Of course, it’s perhaps not totally realistic that barefoot warrior babes have model-gorgeous and ever-clean feet, but this IS a fantasy after all. Heheh. Anyways, FemFeet ReDesigned makes the feet models even more detailed, and with the sole textures of the CBBE female body, they’re incredibly realistic (the SOLE reason why I stay with CBBE and not with other body replacers like UNP- it’s all about the soles, man).

Now of course the female aesthetic mods aside, I do have other mods (well, a gazillion, actually). These include both cosmetic mods that make Skyrim and the things/characters in it more hi-res and pretty, and others affect gameplay. I’ve listed quite a few in the vid at the end, but there are just so many I can’t list them all. Hey, mods make this game what it is.

Where will this heroine's feet take her?

Now, a little backstory on our new protagonist…Who is The Amazon? For starters, she’s not from Skyrim, although she’s considered a Nord by race. She is a foreigner to Tamriel from far, far away. Why and how she came to this battle-torn land is a mystery, but she seems to be searching for someone. After every battle, she often examines the bodies of any slain female enemies, from head to toe. What is she looking for? Perhaps we’ll find out in time.

Of course, The Amazon will always go barefoot, anywhere and everywhere (unless it's quest-related to wear some footwear) but thanks to the aforementioned Greaves and Legwraps mod, she will always have something to wear on her legs and not compromise personal protection. So far I am in love with the Imperial Boots/Steel Shin Boots, which so far are the best-looking of the greaves since they show quite a bit of leg/calves as well as keeping the feet bare. I may have to upgrade her Smithing a lot so that I can keep them upgraded as she levels up. Depending on what armor she finds, her look may change but we’ll see. For now I think Studded Armor looks amazing on her.

Anyway, for now she fights solely to survive and somehow carve out her own niche in this new and dangerous land she now has to call home. What will she find and to what places will her beautiful, inquisitive feet take her? Watch Skyrim: Path of The Amazon on the Youtube Channel!

Or you could watch the first two episodes right here too. Heheh.

The ruthless Imperial Captain gets a bit more 'exposure' this time...

Part Two is filled with sexy and bloody babe-on-babe action.

The first episode brings us yet again to the starting point at Helgen, where the Empire is conducing some summary executions, led by the garrison's bitchy but sexy (and now barefoot) female Imperial Captain. But one of the prisoners- a beauty despite the rags she wears- is meant for more than the Executioner's Block. Watch the first episode of Path of The Amazon, now!

Vilja (The Elder Scrolls V Skyrim)

Vilja is a vision that should brighten any Skyrim playthrough.

Apologies to many for my recent lack of updates both here and on the Channel- I've found myself quite lost once again in the vast expanses and labyrinthine underreaches of the virtual fantasy world known as Skyrim. This is in no small part to my recent upgrading to yet another new and slightly more capable laptop- still not a powerhouse of gaming, but enough to give the world of Tamriel that much more glitz and polish to make it fresh and wonderful to play within again. As many of you should know, Skyrim with the right mods is a veritable foot-lover's paradise, a whole continent of lovely femme fatales' soles to ogle or even (literally) hunt down. There are even quite a few lovely NPCs that have captured our fancies.


Vilja is indeed... enchanting. Heheh.

Recently one of our longtime readers/friends and fellow foot-fans, OlgerthHeidern666 brought a cool mod to our attention. Olgerth is a fellow Skyrim fan and has quite a few awesome mods revealed, such as the 'barefoot' leggings for female characters in the game (sadly something I can't always use due to my choice of body replacement mods). His latest update to us is a Companion mod called Vilja in Skyrim. For those not well-versed in Elder Scroll modding (me included, actually), the character Vilja was also a companion mod, a customizable NPC ally, from the previous ES game, Oblivion. Well, modders have brought this fan favorite sidekick into the world of Skyrim, and she's apparently more interactive than ever.


Some of Vilja's ramblings are quite interesting for footfans in particular...

Vilja comes with thousands of lines of spoken dialogue, her own quests and questline, the ability to interact with the player more intimately (games and more in-depth actions... what were you thinking?) and in all respects seems to be a fully-realized A.I. character compared to all the other NPCs in the game. Best part is, you can outfit her pretty much as you want, and as you see in these pics (provided by Olgerth from his game), barefoot Vilja is a lovely sight.


A girl and her horse.

Of course, it should go without saying that this lovely lass is far more than just a lovely pair of legs to admire. Her character, personality and storyline should add greatly to the enjoyment and immersion in your Skyrim playthroughs. Whether you're a footfan or not, if you play Skyrim on PC and like companions riding along with you, having this talkative, headstrong young lady may be a wonderfully refreshing experience. Thanks to Olgerth for introducing us to this beauty from Solstheim!
