| non-magic using Assassin character generation |
|
Hi people
just started playing MW after getting new PC, and thrilled to find that (i think) that you can join a legitimate Assassins Guild without having to slaughter innocent people (aka Daggerfall) before getting quests and asked to join. Sooo, having ponced around with 4 or 5 char generations and not being happy with what I developed could you lovely people give me some some tips on producing a solid base for an Assassin Class.
Thanks!

I have one problem with rogue-type characters in Morrowind - too many useful skills are governed by Agility. 
You most useful skills will be:
- Athletics (Speed)
- Security (Intelligence)
- Sneak (Agility)
- Acrobatics (Strength)
- Light Armour (Agility)
- Marksman (Agility)
- Short Blade (Speed)
Because they tend to increase fast enough anyway, I'd leave Athletics and Acrobatics to your Misc skills. Light Armour is a no-brainer, with one particular type of armour* being the best choice throughout most of your career. Marksman is useful for taking out guards and for long-distance assassination, but you must be prepared to go melee as well - a dwemer or glass jinkblade will be necessary to acquire early on.
Sign-wise, I'd recommend either The Shadow or The Steed.
In addition to the equipment mentioned above, make sure you get hold of the Amulet of Shadows. You can pick up a Thief Ring very early on**, which gives a nice boost. Make sure you generate enough money to keep you in potions.
Spoiler:
*Dark Brotherhood, Tribunal expansion pack required
Spoiler:
**First cave outside of Seyda Neen - search the mushroom patches in the deserted areas of the map

I liked to have an easy start so I created a superior melee fighter and later trained him to be an assasin.
