The man in the shadows.

Avoid combat related abilities (except where it applies to better explosives).
Max out CHA and focus heavily on Speech. Grab any perks that help with interaction with others and also grab both levels of Animal Friend ASAP (dogs are loyal to their masters, and you are master of all).

No direct combat (the main stupid bit).
All acts of killing must be done by either laying traps (so, landmines) and luring them into "the perfect trap" (putting grenades into peoples pockets is allowed, because that's always just funny).
Or sending in "The Minions" (a.k.a. companions).
Or a bit of both.

Always dress the part.
From the moment you get one, must wear a the best looking business suit you can find at all times.

...People do that one for fun; this is one of the few games in the entire industry where that kind of thing is encouraged with special dialogue specifically for a low-Int build.

Author of this thread didnt ask for a boring challenge, but, ahem, "the dumbest challenge run" you can think of. Do you get it?

Also, play Arcanum (if you havent) with the lowest INT. Incredibly fun, all dialogues are changed, some people jut wont give you quests, others will offer a lesser reward or an important "magician" will refuse to see you in an important event because of your character´s low INT. Basically everybody treats your character as a simpleton and the answers you can give are, well, unique.

That would require an alternate start mod since the very first thing you do is talk to Doc Mitchell by way of scripted conversation.

[DontMisunderstand]

The dumbest challenge run would be blind obedience: Whenever someone tells you to do something, you do it, immediately. No detours, until it's complete. At which point the next time someone tells you to do something, you do that. Could be pretty interesting, but definitely very dumb. I know I'd have fun thinking about how to avoid getting in a situation where my next order to obey is "die".

[Facetable]

Hmm

Really just seems like more of an interesting run but: Bosmer rules run+some mod that makes it possible to die from overeating

And by that I mean: Eat the corpse of every living creature you kill in game ASAP (as soon as combat ends). If there’s any additional meat on the corpse eat that too. Ideally would mean you’d need to go into large battles while starving to death
