Wow, everyone has amazing stories to tell!
A typical in-game day for my Vicolth would be to immediately embark on a quest. If traveling is involved then he will definitely get sidetracked and do a bit of dungeon diving. Sometimes just riding Shadow(mare) he'll pass by a cave/mine/fort and say "Ooh! Cave/Mine/Fort!" then stop and dive it. After doing that, he will head over to the next destination of his quest, and if he has to be back at a certain time (such as to meet with a royal) he will leave the dungeon and return later (he marks it on his map to remind himself). He will cram as much dungeon diving as he can into his day, then spend his evenings and nights (from 10pm to 3am) stealing goods and feeding (this is done AFTER midnight so it carries over to the next day). Then he will sleep from 4am to 7am and begin his day anew.
For combat, Vicolth loves to begin sneaking, and use either Shadowhunt or his Dagger of the Dynamo for 6x damage, and then follow up with his Claymore of the Dynamo. (Despite being an assassin, he LOVES his claymores.) Once combat is initiated he will block and use power attacks at the opportune time. However, sometimes the adrenaline gets the best of him and he just whales on his opponent until they fall, and that sometimes leaves him just barely alive. When dealing with ranged fighters (archers and magic users) he takes cover the best he can until he is within reach of his target. However, if he is feeling good he will simply become a ranged fighter himself, attacking with Shadowhunt and poisoned silver arrows.
Despite his rough exterior (read: low personality) Vicolth enjoys nature and alot of times he will take a break from adventuring to sit down on the outcropping outside of Charcoal Mine to watch the waterfall. That, and the Niben Bay at sunrise are his favorite spots to relax. Being somewhat of a health nut, Vicolth will only eat "legit" food (no Clannfear claws for him!) and dress for the weather. When it rains, he puts his Black Hand hood on. When its sunny and warm, he slips into his green vest. When it's chilly or rainy he'll put on a long-sleeved shirt. Being a creative and free spirit, Vicolth HATES to stay on the road. He prefers to veer off into the wilderness and blaze his own trail amongst the heroes (villains?) of Cyrodill. Even though he likes to do things (quests) he hates the fame he gets for it. He would rather be remembered for rending the flesh from an unsuspecting citizen (which he does once in a while to honor Sithis; every 2 weeks or so) than helping a local lady find her lost husband in a surreal painting (granted that blew his mind and he wanted a summer home there). I suppose that's why it makes the most sense that he admires Sheogoreth, and if his life weren't dedicated to Sithis he would more than likely worship the Deadric Madgod (this is written
pre-SI quest completion).
Vicolth isn't one to care, but he had a particular soft spot for both Lucien Lachance and Vicente Valteari (from whom he willingly contracted porphyric homophilia) and shed tears of shame, guilt and sorrow when the two of them had to die. He cared enough for Vicente to simply shoot him in the back with a poisoned arrow so that he never knew what was going on...
Dear god, I am digressing! T______T So, uhm, yea. That's how I play >_>; It looks like a simple bio but as fellow RPGers, you get it...I hope.

tell me about it, but i did not recieve the courtesy of her hiding it, what a brat! It might be because I have not progressed along the main quest. I was in it for the free horse, but haven't looked back since 
I'm saving the quest involving a prank on Alessia Caro till last
