    Murder at Dushnikh Yal

    So, it seems I have a bit of a mystery on my hands. I was at Dushnikh Yal, training in one-handed. The Orc Chief there is a master level trainer. Of course, along comes a dragon, which wipes out several of the Orcs in the stronghold. When the dragon was dead, I collected its bones, scales...

    Quests no longer available?

    Hi all, I have been procrastinating on finishing the quest in Blackreach, where I have to collect the crimson nirnroot. I recently tried to go, and I activated the quest in my journal, but it doesn't show an arrow anymore, nor can I get into any of the lifts. Does this mean the dungeon has...

    The Gold Helms of the Legion

    Hi all, I am going to try to build on this. It started as my character bio, but I enjoyed writing it so here goes. There may be some language and there will be violence. This first section was posted already on the character bio thread in the main discussion. I'm putting it here, to serve as...

    So, what do you think?

    Is Hearthfire decent? I'm a PS3 user, so I still only hope to get it, but I am looking forward to it at the same time. How does it work, though? Will it let you place mannequins/shield plaques anywhere you want? Is there a specific plan you have to follow, or can you decorate as you see...

    Smithing problem with ebony armor

    I'm wondering if anyone else has had a problem with the armor ratings suddenly changing. I have switched from light armor (100) to heavy armor (mid 30s) to try to build my skill. I am wearing ebony armor, which was smithed to legendary, wering 4 x 25% pieces of equipment and a blacksmith's...

    Who feels guilty for killing a dragon?

    So, I was recently on a Companions quest, which took me into a passage just beneath a dragon's roost. Came up on the dragon while sleeping, shoot it with an arrow, and then dragon rend it while it tries to fly away. Next thing I know, I'm standing at the center of a tier, at the top of a long...

    Delphine: Alligator mouth, Tweety Bird A**

    So, was watching my gf play her new build today, and I realized something. Delphine, the Blade, is in Farengar's office when the dragon attacks the Western Watchtower. None of the Jarl's horses and several of the Jarl's men go toe-to-toe with this thing, along with the dragonborn and the...

    Unusual helmet on a draugr

    Yesterday, I went into Lost Valkygg, a short dungeon on the grounds of Labyrinthian. In one the rooms, there are two draugr laying on an altar or embalming table, both of which may rise. I sneak a lot, so I killed the one before he could get up. While searching them, I noticed one wore a...

    Mjoll vs. the giant = airborne!

    Today, Mjoll learned a rather abrupt lesson in paying attention. We were sneaking up on an undiscovered giant camp, when I took a slight uphill left and positioned myself behind a large rock. After a second or so, I watched her keep right on sneaking up to the giant, who promptly helped her...

    How to destroy a forum

    So, I've only been here a short while and, while I obviously love the subject matter and enjoy a lot of the things I see here, I have already come to realize there seem to be a lot of negative Nellies here. Every time I log on, I see someone being jumped on about their substandard posts, or...

    Storm Call help

    I am having problems with Forelhost word wall. It makes all the appropriate noises, has the little 'stand here' mark, but will not release the word. I've reloaded, rebooted, even did the dungeon again...nothing. I see that others are having this problem, and I have two anomalies that I...

    High Gate Ruins - Storm Call question

    Hi all, I was playing today, and got "the letter" to go to High Gate Ruins. It started simple enough, meeting that lady who needed a scroll and agreeing to help her. About halfway through, we had a few draugr get up, and suddenly she and Mjoll are battling it out and I couldn't stop them...

    Just snuck up on a dragon?!?! O.o

    So, I'm playing a 54 level Nord. I have a 98 sneak, but only 2/5 stealth perk, though I do wear muffled boots. I rended one near the mines outside Markarth, got "the letter" and was sent to Autumnwatch Towers, down below the Alchemist's shack. Deja vu first, I had just played that map the...

    Ulfberht / Ulfberth

    So, I stumbled across the story of Ulfberht, an apparently legendary Norse blade smith, recently. Apparently, he was the first to forge blades entirely of high carbon steel. Prior to that, it is said, they were made of iron with steel strips and a steel edge forge-welded on after the fact...

    Who else hunts the Thalmor for sport?

    I grease those slimy $%^&*#!@ every chance I get. I love to let them get to the height of their "superiority over humans" speech, before I shout them butt-up and hack them to little tiny bits. If there was a holy hand grenade of Whiterun, I would count to 6...wait.
