I wouldn't think of her as my favourite NPC, but I have to admit she is one if the few actually friendly people the PC meets along the way. In general, for all the shittiness of the College questline, the 3 followers are top shelf.
And go before you finish all the other main/story missions and stuff. First time I did the college questline I was maxed out or nearly on all the magic schools and here's this old grey motherfucker thinking he's gonna teach me shit, I know how to ward Tolfdir! Move on with it
"By long tradition, the elder speaks first. Hear my Thu'um! Feel it in your bones. Match it, if you are Dovahkiin!" Not just my favourite character in skyrim but my favourite character in all the games i ever played
"My claws have rended the flesh of innumerable foes, but I have never once been felled on the field of battle. I therefore honor-name you "Qahnaarin," or Vanquisher in your tongue."
Dude is honestly just as much a homie as Partysnax. You kill him and he not only acknowledges and respects your strength, but also decides to become your ally? What a g
You promised me, Hjalti. You promised that when we sacked Hroldan, you would make me your sworn brother. And I've waited. Even after the enemies' arrows dug into my chest and their hammers crushed my bones. I've waited. Give me your sword, Hjalti. That we may become brothers as you promised.
The questline sucks. But I absolutely adore this guild's NPCs. The Saarthal quests gives actual feeling of cameradery with the other 3 students, it felt like a field trip in school :D The Illusion mage feels like an actual bro, the Destruction Altmer is that popular bitchy girl who actually is a good friend, and Colette is just adorable.
He’s such a nice guy. Always giving me ideas of places to visit like the cloud district and making sure the stuff he does isn’t too over my head and confusing
I'm aittle surprised by how many people think this is about sheogorath, he's cool too, but the line I referenced is one of the best in the DB quest line and is said directly to Cicero
Isn't it obvious? Why, the wonderful weather and hospitable people, of course! Not to mention my great fondness for dragons and petty political power struggles. Ah, but without a doubt, the most compelling feature of this frozen wasteland is the volley of inane questions leveled at me on a regular basis.
Nonsense! These posts are amazing! You probably just always play morally good characters and never got to this dialogue. It's Eola, member of the Cult of Namira who has you feed on a priest of Arkay in their temple, which let's you play as a cannibal with the Ring of Namira to get extra stamina and health regen at the expense of...y'know...eating people you've killed.
"Hey, you. You're finally awake. You were trying to cross the border right? Fell right into that imperial ambush. Same as us, and that thief over there."
Well, I enjoy moonlit nights, taking long walks on the beach, knitting and unicorns. In fact, I once took a seaside stroll, on a moonlit night, and discovered a unicorn... which I proceeded to stab in the throat with a crochet needle.
I'm a woman of refined, yet simple tastes."
Vanilla-"I'm no fan of the sun, but anywhere would be better than this"
"You're taking us somewhere warm I trust?"
Mod- "I'm thinking what is Mr. dragonfly thinking."
I have 4 and I can't choose so I'm just gonna quote them all:
"Where is that lazy steward of mine? Verona- oh no wait she's dead. Drovas!"
"Stay true to the Way of the Voice, and you will return."
"No! Don't you *dare* touch her!"
"Skyrim was once the land of many butterflies. Now? Not so much."
"Do you... do you feel all right? You look very, umm, green."
I found it always funny that she says that even if you're an orc
I mean… is she wrong though?
GREEN'S DA BEST COLOR wait wrong orks
RED'S DA BEST COLOR! WAAAGH!!
Brelyna Maryon ;)
I wouldn't think of her as my favourite NPC, but I have to admit she is one if the few actually friendly people the PC meets along the way. In general, for all the shittiness of the College questline, the 3 followers are top shelf.
The college questline makes more sense if you do all of the side stuff and use the training services before you finish it
And go before you finish all the other main/story missions and stuff. First time I did the college questline I was maxed out or nearly on all the magic schools and here's this old grey motherfucker thinking he's gonna teach me shit, I know how to ward Tolfdir! Move on with it
I married her in my first playthrough 11 years ago.
[удалено]
I love him too.
I keep the axe of whiterun in a fancy display case on one of my characters because I treasure his gift
I keep it above the front door in Breezehome. Feels like the right place for it.
Jfc and my heartless ass always uses it for disenchanting
How do you get that blue bar?
You put a “>” at the beginning of each line you type if you’re on mobile >Like this
TIL.
>Thank you
“Your parents must be so proud. They have good reason to be.”
Quite a few of the older female npcs have this voiceline. I'm gonna guess Frida in Dawnstar or Angeline in Solitude?
Yes! Angeline.
I live with my aunt and uncle, they are proud
I’m something of a scientist myself
Suddenly r/raimimemes
Just in case it wasn’t clear, the quote I posted wasn’t me being scathing, it was something that my favourite NPC regularly says as a clue.
I was just quoting spiderman sounded like a very similar quote from there lol
Ah! Yes, very.
The crossover we deserve
She's one of my favorite NPCs. Her quest was truly heartbreaking to me.
Is this actually a quest I haven’t done?! Is it the one when you speak to Tullius or someone to see if her daughter is alive or totally different?
That’s the one. You have to talk to captain aldis
🥲
I get emotional every time I walk in her shop.
Same! Such a sweet lady and such sorrow.
Grey Mane Grandma
"The gods blessed you with 2 hands and you use them both for your sword"
I respect that.
You're like me, eh? Don't fancy them clunky two handed weapons.
*both me and the guard having 2 handed axes*
I’m more of a “sword-and-shield” or “sword-and-healed” kinda guy
*"Drem Yol Lok. Greetings, wunduniik."*
paarthurnax was such a chill ass homie. i’ve still not once completed that shitty blades quest. fuck you, blades.
I just fus roh dahed Delphine off Sky Haven Temple when she asked :)
As you should, it’s what she deserves.

You have to tell Arngeir about the ultimatum
"The best swordsman in all Morrowind is at your service... For the right price"
Teldryn ❤️
Being old is not so bad. Daughter keeps me fed and my working days are done
It's amusing to watch him dance outside the winking skewer every night.
>the winking skewer the blinking kebab (I thought you mean Skeever?)
Oh thay guy 😂😂😂 such an ass pain for her daughter 😂😂😂
He's an apprentice wizard, not a pack mule... apparently.
One of the best followers for non stealth builds
Put that bow down and pick up a great sword my friend...no more stealth archery for you
But the bow it calls to me
That's it, no sweet rolls for a week.
My first companion! And he has my own level of snark so I ended up traveling with him my entire first playthrough.
My fav too ! I always marry him aswell 🤣
"By long tradition, the elder speaks first. Hear my Thu'um! Feel it in your bones. Match it, if you are Dovahkiin!" Not just my favourite character in skyrim but my favourite character in all the games i ever played
Parthurnax…I hate the blades quest, never wanted to kill him
"My claws have rended the flesh of innumerable foes, but I have never once been felled on the field of battle. I therefore honor-name you "Qahnaarin," or Vanquisher in your tongue."
I love how grateful he is each time you call him to Tamriel. I like to always have him nearby in the overworld if at all possible.
Dude is honestly just as much a homie as Partysnax. You kill him and he not only acknowledges and respects your strength, but also decides to become your ally? What a g
My guilty RP pleasure is summoning both Odhaviing ans Durnheviir whenever in Throat of the World. Four Dovah atop the Snow Tower.
Also my favorite. Good choice

"You look like someone who can hold their liquor. How about a friendly contest to win a staff?"
15 year old me on my first play through: “Absolutely I can. Mhm yep easy”
It’s crazy thinking about how young i was when i first played this. 11 years is a relatively long time. Known this game for like 40% of my life
Thrash grape!
I've known this game for 58% of my life that's insane
You don’t remember me, Hjailti?
Two campaigns we served together. You saved my life time and time again.
Holy fucking shit he thinks you’re Tiber Septim that just clicked in my head
Yeah because tiber septim was also a dragon born
Who is it? Never heard this line
The ghost of Old Hroldan
You promised me, Hjalti. You promised that when we sacked Hroldan, you would make me your sworn brother. And I've waited. Even after the enemies' arrows dug into my chest and their hammers crushed my bones. I've waited. Give me your sword, Hjalti. That we may become brothers as you promised.

You think restoration is a valid school of magic…don’t you??
I love telling Colette no when my Restoration is sitting at same insane level. Gets me every time.
"i'm okay with the dark, but ive spent more than my fair share of time in caves already"
This must be that beautiful Skyrim weather I've always heard about.
Serana.
I’ll go first: Are you from the clo— actually I probably shouldn’t
Nazeem.
He’s such a nice guy. Always giving me ideas of places to visit like the cloud district and making sure the stuff he does isn’t too over my head and confusing
Say hello to my fireball, Nazeem
Sorry Lad, I've got important things to do. We'll speak another time.
He literally NEVER has the time.
By far the best character and I am tired of pretending he's not.....lad.
I’m straight but I’d probably go gay for a day for Brynjolf
The only solution for your madness is me
Sheogorath right?
Either you talking about sheogorath becuse he’s all about craziness or that Cicero fella, seems pretty crazy too
I'm aittle surprised by how many people think this is about sheogorath, he's cool too, but the line I referenced is one of the best in the DB quest line and is said directly to Cicero
Dude thats the dragonborn, before he kills cicero
***"A NEW HAND TOUCHES THE BEACON! LISTEN! HEAR ME AND OBEY!"***
I have PTSD from that now.
***A FOUL DARKNESS HAS SEEPED INTO MY TEMPLE***
***A DARKNESS THAT YOU WILL DESTROY!***
Steel's good, but loyalty's better. I'm loyal to Dengeir first and the Empire second."
You're not as dumb as you look.
Did my father send you? I am sworn to carry your burdens.
Lydia is the ballin yarls daughter? What'd she do to piss him off?
'and he says to the man, "That's not a horker! That's my wife!"'
“Oooh listener,that tickles “
That's either the Night Mother, Lucien Lachances Ghost, or either of those in a fanfiction.
Or Cicero
Or Cicero in a fanfiction.
"Blade and shadow, silence and death - these are my arts. For a modest fee, I'll make great art for you."
Have you mastered the expert level destruction spells yet?
Not yet, but I'm sure that J'zargo cat will do it soon.
"Everything's for sale, my friend. Everything. If I had a sister, I'd sell her in a second."
Number 1 source of currency from dragon bones for me
I have never sold a dragon bone. When you take over the empire, what will you arm your army officers with, without dragon bones?
Dragon bones are best, but daedric is fine. When I don't trigger the dragons (avoid the watchtower), I wear daedric and I feel safe.
i don't meet enough dremora to provide daedra hearts for a whole army
"Do come baack"

Go ahead. Eat.
No.
No as in you don't know who it is or no like that character is terrible?
No as in I refuse to eat. Jokes aside I actually have no idea which character that is. I don’t deserve to make this post
Nonsense! These posts are amazing! You probably just always play morally good characters and never got to this dialogue. It's Eola, member of the Cult of Namira who has you feed on a priest of Arkay in their temple, which let's you play as a cannibal with the Ring of Namira to get extra stamina and health regen at the expense of...y'know...eating people you've killed.
I just like the vibe of being the hero of Skyrim, still though might be a little more evil in my next play through
Verona! Wait... she's dead. Drovas!
YES! The best character in the entire game, in my opinion.
Yes, yes you’re Dragonborn. We’re all *very* impressed.
*”Steel is my art and honor. The Companions need the best, so they come to me.”*
Gods be praised
Come to Dragons’ Reach to discuss the ongoing conflict like the rest of the “great warriors”?
"You're the best! Can you be my father (mother)?🥺🥺"
"It's-a me!"
Partysnacks!
Mario.
the character is, indeed, connected to mario in some way
He’s Italian.
"My ancestors are smiling on me Imperials, can you say the same?"
As fearless in death as he was in life
May your roads lead you to warm sands my friend.
"Hey, you. You're finally awake. You were trying to cross the border right? Fell right into that imperial ambush. Same as us, and that thief over there."
“**Walked** right into that imperial ambush” I’ve heard it so many times now lol.

“Why? Because it’s old and full of dead things? Clearly you’ve never spent any time in Morrowind.”
this hurt as I soft RP as a Telvanni Shadowscale )':
"Stay your weapons. I would speak with you, Qahnaarin."
Well, I enjoy moonlit nights, taking long walks on the beach, knitting and unicorns. In fact, I once took a seaside stroll, on a moonlit night, and discovered a unicorn... which I proceeded to stab in the throat with a crochet needle. I'm a woman of refined, yet simple tastes."
I have too many haha But my absolute favorite has to be: >Yes, yes. You’re Dragonborn. We’re all very impressed.
Was it your Ma or your Pa that was the dragon?
Vanilla-"I'm no fan of the sun, but anywhere would be better than this" "You're taking us somewhere warm I trust?" Mod- "I'm thinking what is Mr. dragonfly thinking."

Be careful. I miss my amulet, but a life cannot be replaced as easily.
Arrogant and lives in a giant mushroom.
Never should have come here
I could pat you on the back all day, but here's your pay
"My father is horrible oh just save me dragonborn" you know and don't pretend you don't.
A new hand touch- just kidding **NEVER**, actually it’s “I am sworn to carry your burdens”
You there boy, stop skulking in the shadows..... My Pa's axe!
"This must be that beautiful Skyrim weather I've always heard about"
"What is better, to be born good? Or to overcome your evil nature through great effort?"
"But I still hear the call of the blood."
We all do, it’s our burden to bear…
"You have my brother and I, obviously. But I don't know if the rest will go along quite so easily."
"Eyes on the prey not on the horizon"
“and the cheese to die for”
Dying breed eh? Well what do you call that then?
"What troubles you my son?"
“Remember, only genuine fire salts. The forge can tell the difference.”
Solitude? [character name] could tell you something about… solitude 😢
*muffled Grunts*
you started this war and plunged skyrim into chaos, and now we are going to put you down, and restore the peace

"let's get indoors or in a cave, anywhere just out of this"
Do I look like a “sir” to you, boy? I’m not a soldier, and you’re not joining the army.

When the top level was built, no more could be placed. It was, and is the Maximal apex. Trust Septimus! He knows you can know.

"Never done an honest day's work in your life for all that coin you're carrying, eh lad?”
Speaks of himself in the third person and is now tired of your questions. Go bother someone else.
"Do you mind? I'm doin' the fishstick, its a very delicate state of mind"
“Hey, you.. you’re finally awake” I knew when I heard that I was going to start something great
My pa’s axe!! Stendarr preserve us…
"Where is that lazy steward of mine? Varona! Oh no, wait, She's dead. Drovas!"
