How do you backstab a Dragon?
Well, as usual, Falkreath is acting weird for me. This time though it's really reather amusing:

As usual, after committing a minor crime (in this case, slaughtering a drug dealer - I do it all the time - mostly for the moon sugar for my Elsywr Fondue's and the Sleeping Tree Sap for Ysolda - only this time, he (an orc) was carrying a huge amount of Blackbrier mead and Blackbrier reserve (12 of the mead and 6 or the reserve!), I headed in to Falkreath and was completely ignored. I had just completed killing off the bandits for the Jarl, but, when I entered his longhouse, suddently everyone was hostile. Oh well, it happens all the time for me so I went back outside to exit Falkreath and everybody was after me (well, at least the Jarl, his Steward, his housecarl, the legate and all the guards. For some reason Balimond was after me too). A few points here:
1) The Jarl has the attention span of a goldfish. After I beat him down, I was able to talk to him and get permission to purchase property. He then, of course turned hostile as soon as the legate was back on his feet after his beatdown.
2) The Jarl's housecarl and steward are cowards. One beatdown and they ran off back in to Falkreath and weren't anywhere to be found for the rest of the fight.
3) Apparently Norri (?), the barmaid with the decolatage and Balimond were in an abusive relationship (I had no idea!). After killing Balimond during the fight, when I arrived back in Riverwood on my way to Whiterun, a courier was waiting for me with a thank you letter from Norri. Cool! I have never seen that before. On the plus side, I now also have a key to Grey Pine Goods (?) in Falkreath.
4) I outrank a dragon? Weird. During the middle of the fight (at the gates), a blood dragon lands and starts taking out everybody there (well, at least the guards). By the time it was through, all the guards were dead (their backs were to it as the went after me) and everybody else was on the ground recovering from beatdowns (hey, at least I got bones and gold out of it).


On another note, is it my imagination or does Mayhem attract dragons? I've used it from scrolls a total of 5 times now and all 5 times a dragon has shown up: Fort Amol, Falkreath, Fort Greymoor, Fort Snowhawk and Shors Stone. Just strange.

Anyone else have any weirdness going on?

After the War (Imperial's in charge), I went to Falkreath to see the Jarl and to get "work". The simpering idiot wants a tribute of Black Briar Mead! Never been told that before, and I'm still tempted to sneak in an give him a tribute! By opening his throat!

Twice now I've witnessed several Falkreath Guards simply march out of the town when I approached. I of course followed them both times. The first one ended with me getting launched into the orbit by a Spriggan creature, but the second time I followed a guard around the hold and back to town. He only left the road to go around Helgen (I hadn't yet triggered Alduin, but did during this adventure), and killed a few creatures along the way. He did start off with a few other guards, but they teleported away one by one. :D

One time I came across a Falkreath Guard when I was on my way from Riverwood towards Helgen. I'm guessing it was the same glitch(?) as the above one, only that time it had triggered by itself.


Falkreath also seems to be a really deadly place: I keep finding random bodies in the town and its immediate vicinity. Poor NPCs (no vanilla deaths so far, though) must've spawned in midair or something. It's a good thing they've got a big graveyard there...

The worst I've had happened in Falkreath is two dragons spawning at the same time and killing half the town. Never been randomly attacked, and I still have a bounty from the beginning of the game. I was below level five, it's a forty gold bounty. Don't remember what I did, but I've been though a couple time and no guards have stopped me yet.

I like Siddgeir. He's such a tool and SOOOOO lazy. Plus he takes a beatdown like a man and then completely forgets about being hostile. I like that in a man.

One time Sinding was back in his cell, in werewolf form. I also noticed an odd noise when near him. I went into his cell with tcl and my character started to walk in circles and he went out of the well still walking in circles. I had to reload. Using a mod and console I freed Sinding and set him free in Falkreath. He just walked away, the people of Falkreath not caring.

I actually ran in to Siddiq in Helgen the other day. I thought he promised to stay in Bloated Man's Grotto? Oh well, he wasn't hurting anybody.

But then you miss out on the ring or the armor. Besides, he just killed one brat. How many brats have you wanted to kill in this game? Especially Braith. OK, maybe not kill, but certainly beat some sense in to. She's a little creep.

Your right about the Ring and Gear Daelon . We all see things from varying points of view .

I just can't be a Werewolf or Vamp in game , it feels just wrong for me . I guess I feel like i'm losing control of my ( In game values ) I always , oppose the Dedrea , and only go into the Companion's Quest line to proving Honor , and am a vervant Vamp hunter. So Child Killers are at the top of my list . Braith , is a brat and I have known a few in real life like her , LOL Guess she was never taught RESPECT for anyone . Any way Thanks for your perspective much appreciated :)

I kind of enjoy being a were-wolf and have played one many times. It doesn't define the character, but once in a while it's fun for me to let loose and just go on a slaughter fest.

My current spellsword Ingin Thorne will be my first vampire though. Wish me luck!

You're an interesting person Atz. I wish I had the moral fibre to actually follow through with being a good guy. I have a new build that I'm doing on a dare from my other 1/2 that should be that. We'll see what happens.
