i really can't remember if it was bravil or leyawin (if any but i think it was) that u go north up the road and you come to a random village full of hobo's i just killed one of them. but now i just kill a random shop owner. like the warlocks luck altmer owner in bravil beacuase i just don't like him.

The best thing i ever did. i play on middle difficulty generally, and i was trying to start the DB questline so in bravil again and i went to kill this women. i was hand to hand but only level 2 with terrible gear, and i punched her, she gets up and i turn around, guess what i see. mythic dawn commentries part 3. uh oooh. she summoned some daedric stuff then started attacking me, i was pretty new at the time so i got pwnd. :shakehead:

Personally, I just let it happen.

I'm playing an old (+-60) Imperial mage, who - after years of profiting from his passed-away father's fortunes - decides to go out and actually see the world outside of his Chorrol mansion (alternate start mod).
After a while, while working on an assignment he had received, he accidentally missed one of his more effective spells. This caused him to kill an ally, though the battle continued and he couldn't undo what happened anyway - it was an accident.

It was an honest mistake to kill the fella, but he just shouldn't jump in front of a spell named 'kill - potent'...

More info about the quest during which this happened:

Spoiler

While working for the Arcane University, you'll get a task from the count of Skingrad. You'll have to get rid of both a nest of vampires and a bunch of vampire hunters. I told the hunters about the nest, and came along to exterminate the vampires.

I killed the hunter-leader by accident, and the other hunters were killed by the vamps.

The most fun part was that when Lucien LaChance showed and spoke to me, I killed him with the very same spell.
My character was pure-of-heart, after all: he couldn't let such an opportunity slip.
