Yeah, I got a bard named Sonir. Never heard of her before. Oh well...

I started up a new Orc run (her name is Ura) over the weekend, and upon arriving in Riverwood, right after Helgen, was shocked at what I was greeted by... Sven was crouched over Faendal's dead body. What the...?

Wow.  I just began a new Elf run and the first thing I see walking into Riverwood is Faendal's corpse. 

Odd.

Faendal dies a lot in my games, too, though usually later on in the game.

For any lore geeks, I read an interesting, elaborate fan work at the Lore forum.  It's supposedly a transmission from some Thalmor agents using a Dwemer device beneath a redguard city (the one betrayed by Saadia, though they call it differently than the game does) to read the early memories of Hjalti Early-Beard up to his becoming the general of Cuhlecain.

It was written before Dawnguard came out, but the Thalmor agents are instructed to hold position until the Dawnguard can come extract them.  It would be incredibly ironic if somehow the vampire lords ended up siding with humanity against the Thalmor, and vice versa for the Dawnguard.  A lot of us speculated that Dawnguard could be about the Thalmor's "dawn magicks," though, so maybe the writer just got the idea from that speculation.

What was that?

I caught some of it but for the most part...it made little sense

What the hell kind of link..?

That's some serious RP going on in those forums.

Heh, you guys apparently don't read the Lore forum much. Occasionally the devs used to (we don't know if they do anymore) post lore writings in the form of correspondence, RP conversation etc. Fans started doing the same. I'm pretty sure this is a fan work and not developers writing, but it's still pretty good. You have to read more than just the first couple posts, the story develops over the first few pages.

The beginning bit is Dreamsleeve code, like an IP address and subject header of an email. The Dreamsleeve was initially conceived as a kind of mystical internet before it became "where souls go to be recycled when a person dies."

Hail Sithis.

Wait, so you talk to your Steward, who will hire a generic bard for you? That's disappointing, if true.

Generic bard it is. I believe mine's named Llewellyn the Nightingale, or something. You can pick which instrument they play (lute, flute, drum), but I promptly forgot about him as there was a giant trying to kick down my door a few moments after Llewellyn showed up.

Are you able to set bear traps outside your house? If so, I will be stocking up on those.

lol I find this funny of the kids you can adopt, two of them I might want to throw into the same house.

Both are girls but one's parents were imperial soldiers killed in the war, and the others father was a stormcloak killed in the war.

[Shepenwepet]

@Happy Not that I've noticed. There's a giant deer that won't leave my yard, though. It better defend my house against skeever infestations. If it doesn't, I know a trophy stand it'd look nice on.

So far my trophy room has a goat.

A goat.

How do you get more trophies?
Buy em?

Or can you set a corpse to be a trophy if you kill it?

[happy_daiz]

Oh hey, I have a question for you guys. I was going through my inventory, and found a Scroll of Storm Thrall, which claims to be permanent.

I have no idea how long I've had it, or where I got it. According to the wiki, it says they're around for "86313600 secs", but I'm wondering: can they be killed? And since it's derived from a scroll, does it count as a summon (at least, how many summons you can have active)?

@Shepenwepet - You have a goat trophy? You must be so very proud.

In regard to Hearthfire, I keep having images of adopted rugrats bringing a spriggan home. Is that weird?

@Giggles: You construct them - you need deer hide/antlers to make a deer trophy, for instance. There's only seven spots to display them, so you'll have to pick which ones you really want.

@Happy: I had goat horns in my inventory, (they were building materials for sconces.) Somehow that was enough to construct an entire goat. I honestly don't think it even called for goat hide.

And yes. SUPER PROUD.

Any other summons by you will kill the thrall.  Durn, Arvak, Sanguine staff etc. unless you have twin thralls perk.

Hail Sithis.

The Dread Father. Even the Hist trees acknowledge Sithis.

Been a while since I've gone through the Dark Brotherhood. I still remember meeting Lucien for the first time in Oblivion. "Dear brother, I do not spread rumors. I create them."

Lol.  Can you adopt existing kids from the game?  Or are these kids generated by the DLC.

Such a great quest line.

In a QuakeCon panel, Emil Pagliarulo said he had been wanting to do an assassin game for a long time and got it out of his system by writing the DB quest lines in Oblivion and Skyrim.  He was also a dev for the Thief series, which I'm currently playing.  Loving Thief 2 to bits.  It's a mostly non-lethal game but it's still fun to sneak around and whack dumb guards over the head.

Some funny tweets about Hearthfire going around.
"Skyrim is being overrun by orphans, Dragonborn! Only you can save us by adopting them all!"

"I thought I'd killed my child in Skyrim.  Turns out lying on the floor for no reason is just something she does."

Okay, seriously, my character works through the night in the rain to finish the final add-ons to the house while her useless husband sleeps.

He's sleeping as the house is being constructed around him.

So I did what any good wife would do - I dumped about 6 giant toes right next to his face.

He's still sleeping.

Correction one is a boy one is a girl. And some if the parents are killed.

Basically theres like 5 in the orphanage, and 4 on the streets, the ones on the street have it far worse.

One works as a field hand and in return sleeps in the horse stable, one girl sells flowers to eat, another girl begs for gold, and another boy basically runs food to the miners in another city and is allowed to sleep next to the fire in the inn most nights. Meh I'ld rather help them than kill the parents of another kid. Ah well.

I'm only adopting the redguard kids (if there are any) because I'm racist. Unfortunately, I doubt we could found out if any are redguard without the PC because the kids flagged redguard pratically look like nords.

[RedArmyShogun]

The only races seen are Imperial, Nord, and Breton.

[Laser Beam]

Are you kidding me? Ugh, do you know if Braith can be adopted (After her parents are dead of course lol)? She's a brat I know but I'd rather not adopt a different race kid.
