I played a bit more with Munchkin, to take a break from the Bosmers. Does a fist in the knee have the same effect? Just for grins, I had her go and try mano-a-mano with the giant outside Largashbur, but she's not ready yet. She's very low in the saddle when she just uses the horse, too, so mostly she walks. She sits embedded in the seat with just her shoulders showing. I had her build the Wagon, but she's too short to drive. Without an Unarmed perk tree, she doesn't get any increase from experience using the skill, so the mod provides other means. So far she hasn't enchanted anything with Fortify Unarmed, but she may need to do so soon, as she's running out of other options to increase her attack. The mod makes the mage armor spells add unarmed damage, as well as defense, so she's reasonably well-balanced. Her knees and calves poke through most boots! Her reduced height makes it a lot easier to pick other people up and slam them into the ground, as she doesn't have to lift them very far. Of course nothing else fits her without clipping. She's playing unarmed, and wears a pair of spiked Brawlers (added by the Unarmed Helper mod) and a pair of sandals. She's shorter than Buffy, but probably twice as wide, being vertically challenged, rather than petite. I still haven't even come up with a proper name for Munchkin.

I'm cycling round several characters at the moment, looking for inspiration for the Orc Wise Woman quest.
