Choose a hometown for your character. Pick a location you know well from your previous games, and decide what your new character's career will be, focusing on quests relating to that location. Maybe you're an apprentice to a local blacksmith or alchemist, maybe you're related to a certain NPC and want to help the family business and make your parents proud. Maybe you're a temple acolyte to a local priest and want to learn magic to aid the villagers. Maybe you're childhood sweethearts with a certain NPC and you want to eventually marry that person so you're doing quests to prove your worth or make enough money to own a house together.
Sounds like my one redguard character. She live her life in Hunters Cabin near Rivenwood (you may know that mod). She honed her skills by hunting, selling, smithing light armours and making potions. She did not make any quest before she was level 52.Sounds like what I did with my current character. She's a Bosmer hunter who lives in the cabin outside of Riverwood. She supplies skins and meats to Riverwood and Whiterun

I like taking this approach. It's especially interesting and somewhat more challenging to make the hometown one of the non-major locations. I did a random draw type thing once and ended up with a Bosmer living in Kynesgrove.Choose a hometown for your character.
