...but can't, for whatever reason.
I have two of them.
The top of the list goes to Elenwen, for torturing Ulfric, for living above a blood-soaked dungeon in such grandeur, for inflicting suffering on all citizens of Skyrim. However, during the only time I come directly face-to-face with her, I'm entirely without protection or weaponry and neck-deep in guards and powerful people. Maybe I should try attacking her with magic next time, just to see what would happen.
The next frustrating target is Maven Black-Briar. Riften is my home town, one of my favorite cities. I love the stories of all its struggling, upright citizens and side very strongly with Mjoll's point of view, that we should be the champions of a suffering city. I try to wipe out the Thieves' Guild whenever I can and do everything in my power to make Riften a better place to live. However, there is one threat that I cannot wipe out, the root of all the city's evil - Maven. I've felt very, very badly about taking the Rift for the Imperials and handing the title, if not the power, of Jarl right to her. She's what's keeping everyone in the city subjugated to the Thieves' Guild, encouraging crime and poverty in her love of power. Were she gone, the Rift might just get a chance to thrive. Alas, apparently she's marked as an 'essential NPC.' It's just not possible to "save Riften" like Mjoll wants or alleviate the depression that so many of its citizens talk about. All because of one unkillable lady.
