Hmm...I seem to have missed a few screenshots. I murderized a orc and two Nord/Breton/Imp merchants a bit outside of Windhelm because the orc was in full orc armor. I didn't need the body piece, because what I have is better, but the hand, foot, and head pieces are all better then what I was using both in armor AND give full warmlyness. So Thyrulda and the gang beat them all to death. Just to clear up why here outfit changed a bit.
ON TO THE
BLINDUPDATE
After we ambushed those merchants and took their stuff we headed back to Windhelm to sell off what I didn't need and then got ready for the journey to Dawnstar, the closest major city to our hunting spot
We grabbed a carriage, as the others didn't want to walk and I only have the one horse. Perhaps I should expand my stable. It certainly is an interesting thought.
I discover the Freefly Camera function, and how awesome it is for screenshotting
Shortly after arriving in town our driver rushes off, as a deep booming roar is heard. I'm quite familiar with that roar, its the roar of a Dragon.
I grab my bow and steed, rushing off toward the fight.
OH GOD, BAD CAMERA! BAD!
I don't give a fuck bout no horse archers, I HATE TROLLS!
However it isn't much of a fight, as the dumb lizard ignores me completely and attacks a troll.
He later ignores the both of us and flies off to Dawnstar proper, where the guards and Rumarin shoot him down.
There's that rush of power again, and I wasn't even drunk this time. Maybe I'm not just imagining it...
While Thyrulda was off "Chasing the Dragon" the troll was busy killing off the town
I find a book that improves a skill I will NEVER, EVER USE. Go me!
So er, we ran into a bit of a problem here. Turns out there's a rather forced animation when eating "disgusting" food in RND mod. And using it on a horse, while hilarious, kinda makes the game unplayable. I had to reload to before the trollassacre, and when I got back to it even MORE people had died. Specifically, BOTH useful merchants (The blacksmith couple) were now dead. OOPS. So ignoring that, I take their stuff, grab what I lost and then go on my way.
I find a whole pack of wolves attacking a lone giant. So after taking bets with my companions, I rush in to make sure the Giant survives.
Which is when the bastard ATTACKS ME! ME! A High Elf who stooped to the level of assisting such a inferior creature and it attacks me!
So I punch it to death. Technically that means I lose the bet with Callen, but she'll never see that money anyway, the bitch.
After that excitement is over, we don't make it ten feet before bandits attack us. Bastards.
Interestingly, their mage had explosives on her corpse. Why she didn't use them when she realized magic is useless against me we will never know. Eh, more stuff to sell.
So we finally get to this wrecked ship Callen had been talking about, when the idiot informs me the Horker is actually on a nearby island. It's always something with her "people"
That...is actually a rather large Horker...
But its blubber won't protect it from arrows.
Coming upon the felled beast, it has an absolutely stupid amount of meat to harvest. This will keep us fed for a good long time.
Callen wastes my time talking right before the rest of the Horker Horde descends upon us.
She informs me we need to see a chef in Markarth to make the stew. Joy.
Heading back to Dawnstar we see the dingy operator about taking us to Solitude, the closest coastal location to Markarth.So as I come into Solitude they are of course, holding Roggvir's execution, and having seen this SOOO many times, I decided to have some console fun with it.
Roggvir awaits his sentencing.
I used the kill command on all the guards and the executioner. Turns out no one seems to notice.
Well, except Greta
Oh and Roggvir randomly died like a minute later. Bethesda scripted that scene so hard that its literally impossible for Stormcloaks (like myself) to stage a rescue, which I feel is a failure in their design.
So after having my fun and protest I reset reality back to "What Actually Happened" mostly because Thyrulda would never rescue a Stormcloak.
He got curious, and found out she was a Furby collector *shudders*
So yeah, next post will have a lot more in character stuff than this one did. I'm starting to have issues because loading 40-50 screenies into imageshack at once takes a stupidly long time, this was only about 80% of the session. I spent a STUPID amount of time in Solitude trying to find a place to cook up some horker stew for myself, as that gives you extra health per second, along with all the awesomeness that is stew in Frostfall/RND mods. I eventually reached Markarth, had to console up Callen because she fell behind somewhere and now the quest is in some crazy limbo because the cook dude acknowledged me, took my meat, and then....just stands there like an idiot. The quest journal says I'm supposed to talk to him, but he has nothing in his dialogue about the stew. I thought maybe I'm supposed to wait awhile or something, but he's still just standing like an idiot.
I'll look over on Interesting NPCs site and see if theres a reason for this and if that doesn't work I'll just do some consoling to advance the quest.
I'm glad I ended up in Markarth, because there are THREE brawls to take part in here, which should get me to five and thus earn me 10 extra free punchy power. Unfortunately two of the brawls are in that stupid Forsworn/Cidna Mine/Markarth is Ruled by Dickweeds quest, and I HATE that quest. Ah well, it should also help me get my NPC kill count up, as I need to get 500 before lvl 25, and I'm only at like 160 or so. I'll be beating a LOT of guards to death.
Oh but before I do, I'll take a new vote, WHO WANTS ME TO NAMIRA QUEST?
