Have you murdered any NPCs?

Post » Sat May 11, 2013 10:42 am

By murder, I mean did you kill any of the NPCs found in towns, villages, or any small settlements solely because you didn't like them or because of any other reason? Please do not include Dark Brotherhood targets for the sake of spoilers or the radiant quest because, well, they aren't named NPCs. Perhaps describe some details on how the job was done.

So far, I remember killing Lydia, Iona, Nazeem (surely I'm not alone on this one), and Heimskr. I killed Nazeem for obvious reasons. He was alone in the Drunken Huntsman, standing by the fire. I simply snuck behind him and slit his throat. Surprisingly the Bosmer at the booth did not notice. After the incident did his widow seem to despise me even though she nor anyone else knew who claimed Nazeem's life. She seems to hope the wilds claim me one of these days. Rude woman, for you have no evidence that I killed Nazeem!

Next I killed Heimskr, as I thought he was committing public disorderly conduct, or in simple terms, being annoying. How I did it was very entertaining. Late in the afternoon before it got dark did I sneak up the statue of Talos and conjured a bound bow. Right when he was in the middle of finishing his heretical ranting did I fire my bow straight into his back. He fell to his knees and then I fired a second arrow (which went into an epic kill cam that followed the arrow), killing him.

I sort of regret killing both of them because the town feels more empty and less alive without Heimskr's speeches or Nazeem asking if I go the Cloud District. However, I do enjoy the quietness when walking around.

Why I killed Lydia and Iona is a bit ridiculous. Both being forced upon housecarls did I dislike the fact that they live in my home and sit their awkwardly while I sleep (especially the ever hostile attitude Iona). I killed Lydia early in the game while trying to reach Riften. After we killed a couple bandits that attacked us did I randomly decide to decapitate her with my blade. Why I killed her at that very moment, I do not know, but considering it was my first ever decapitation I was thinking more like "Holy crap, that was AWESOME!" I killed Iona solely because of her just sitting in my house staring at me when I slept. Very disturbing. Late at night did I take her out to the lake outside of Riften and then snuck behind her and slit her throat. She slept with the fishes that night.

Although I felt bad after some of the murders I have committed the kills themselves were oh so satisfying. :devil:

Heimskr. I was walking by and he was so freaking annoying. I walked up to him in broad daylight and smashed his face in. Paid my 1000 septim bounty and was on my way.

next was angrenor once honored. Since rolff is invulnerable , i took my rage out on him.

Seeing as how my main character is a Dunmer who joined the legion, there have only been two NPC's I ever tried to kill because I wanted them dead and gone. Both in Windhelm.

The first was Rolff Stone-Fist. I tried to kill him in the Grey Quarter in front of my Dunmer brethren. I was very sad to find out he is essential.

The Second was Hermir Strong-Heart. She is a stead-fast Stormcloak supporter and does not like me at all. Oengul War-Anvil I can tolerate, because if you wait to complete his quest until after the Civil War he will like you again. But, he is the reason I re-loaded when I killed Hermir. Even if she is dead, he stills goes on about how she is the only reason he stays in Windhelm. Kinda breaks immersion a little.

So, I currently have not been able to kill anyone. Though, I like to make a separate save and go on a killing spree just for fun occasionally.

It would take too much typing to list all the npc's I kill in every playthrough (even in RP's, I always find a flimsy excuse to do so), but I will say that I always soul trap them.

Oh, wait! I have listed them here on this site once already! (the essential ones, anyways)

Spoiler

Wow, I always leave Ulfric in a humiliating position after death but I'd never do that. I mean, I always lean real close and say "I will violate your Hero, along with every one of your hopes and dreams," when she tells me about how much she likes him, but I never murder her.

:(

I've murdered Nazeem in broad daylight once. After paying my fine and returning to the body, Ysolda and the children were gathered around him, watching him in silence.

I felt slightly guilty...but then I looted him of his belongings right in front of them.

The actual smith himself is a strong supporter as well. However, if you help retrieve his sword, he begins to like you again after Ulfric's death. The apprentice still has her panties in a bunch, however.
