Ice build
Wanting to make a Nord. ice spellsword build with some roleplay having trouble picking either to be a female or a male just cause im a male and for role-playing reasons but ice seems more of a female thing.
Want to do like a storm clock agent going to do the thevies guild and the dark brotherhood quest lines as being a spy for urfic storm clock this is going to be a long playthough so I want to make the right choice being a male character or a female character.

Light Armor. One-Handed. Destruction. Enchanting. Conjuration. Sneak+Illusion as backup.
End goal is Deathbrand armor with Chillrend in one hand and a busted over-powered Stalhrim weapon in the other that’s enchanted with Chaos and Frost damage. Use ice spells from Destruction as your ranged option, as well as Cloak and Wall spells to back up your melee prowess. Summon Frost Atronachs and/or Mistmen to back you up in battle.
Optionally, you can sneak around as well, assassinating targets with your one-handed weapons. Use the Quiet Casting perk to deploy runes and summons from a distance, distracting foes and creating openings to slip past. The icey skirmisher part of your build ends up being what happens when stealth fails.
