You know, that thing you do that you know you shouldn't do, but you just can't help yourself? And when you do it, you just feel right inside? Go ahead, get it off your chest... You'll feel better, promise. Shhh, we won't tell anyone. ;)

Mine is shooting draugr in their sleep. The little shivering jolt, the perturbed growl, the weapon flying against the wall like they're throwing dinner plates during a domestic disturbance, it all just gives me a little thrill. The way they jerk like they put a butterknife in an electrical socket and then land in a little crumple just makes me feel like everything is going to be ok.

There's a special place in my heart for Stros M'Kai Rum.

Always get the booze.

I do take joy in separating someone's overly smug little head from their so-to-be formerly-living smug little body.

Most of my characters tend to be fairly good aligned generally with some exceptions, but all of them don't take well to condescending asses and ultimatums.

A good lesson in life is if you see a person that just killed multiple dragons only with a stick, that person is a badass and perhaps not the correct person to talk sh!t to. I gladly teach that lesson to anyone who wants, but only one time per person.

I almost always play a good character. Even if I wasn't, Belethor's shop is far too valuable an asset to lose! It's right there in my favorite city and he'll take just about anything off my hands. Practicality aside, I don't like losing townsfolk. It bothers me. They're mine and I like to keep them alive, even if I don't particularly like them.

Which is why I save before I knock the little cockroach's head off his shoulders. Then I reload and it was all just a bad dream. Shh, shh Belethor. There, there. You're alright now. Safe and sound with me. Now buy my trash.

His variety in what he takes is quite an asset indeed.

I also feel the same about my townsfolk. I tend to be pretty protective of them overall. If I didn't kill them, then no one else better try dammit.

I'm one of those people who likes to switch on tgm and murderize the entirety of Whiterun.

I also like to take armour from bandits so I can sell it. I really don't need to, and I end up over-encumbered really quickly, but leaving corpses without boots or gauntlets is kind of amusing.

I walk into Belethor's shop. I save my game. I walk up to him. I say hello. He says hello back. I conjur a mace. I knock his head clean off his shoulders.

Then I reload.
Has he ever warned you about weapons? I don't know how many characters I've played without ever hearing it, but one day I walked with my sword in hand and he says something like "walk in here with your weapon drawn, you may not walk back out. Unless you want to sell that...put it away." I keep reloading, but he doesn't seem to want to say it often.

When in doubt, follow the fox.
I must break and enter every NPC house in Skyrim. There's never anything in there of value. It's just the pleasure of being in their house, poking around, where I don't belong, seeing how they live when they're not wandering the marketplace. I also strip naked every evil bad guy to shame them even in death.

Watching Nazeem get killed by vampires and then looting his corpse.


You have to make him your Dead Thrall.

"Say, Nazeem. Have you been to the Cloud District recently?"
"Nngh ..guuh.."
"Oh what am I saying. Of course you haven't."


This reminds me of something I am guilty about XD

I killed the fruit seller in whiterun and soul trapped her putting her soul into a black soul gem and placing it in a display case and adopted her daughter so I could say "Do you still sell fruits and vegetables? >:D"

Ooooo... that's EVIL! Terrible! EVIL! And absolutely hilareous! :)

I consider the very act of playing a guilty pleasure... so many more important things I could be doing when I play.

I am a bit of a collector. What do I collect, you ask? Bodies. Any dead body that can be stored permanently, I MUST HAZ. Even characters that I don't plan on making necromancers, when I see such a body, I cannot resist. I immediately make my way to the nearest Giants Camp and train my conjugation... conjuration in the most badass way possible. While playing chicken with giants and kiting mammoths. Raido will understand that part, at least. After that, I round thrm up and buy a house to put them all in. Then I pick whichever one I feel like and force them to fight to the death for my entertainment... over and over and over again! DANG IT ADAM, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME?!
