Lair of the Arzghul

Post » Tue May 17, 2011 8:08 am

What could Bethesda have intended this cell in Oblivion to be: LairoftheArzghulExterior (-14, 35)
I checked the cell and there's nothing special in it. I guess they abandoned the idea of having whatever it now can be in there.
So, does something called Arzghul exist in TES lore? Or was it something they planned to implent but never did?

The imperial library doesn't show anything so I guess it must be some abandoned idea.

Sounds disgustingly Tolkeinesque -- good riddance, I say.

Cool find, though. Perhaps someone could mod it in with some ZOMG TEH UBER SWORD!!1!111! as a reward.

theres tons of cool unincluded stuff in oblivion (and in morrowind, actually). i'd love for the devs to reveal what their original vision of oblivion was...

Yeah. Bloodmoon added a pair of 'Vor Lair' interior cells, which are totally empty.

Another one for the trainspotters, but little else.

Yeah, sounds like a rip-off of the Nazg?l... :facepalm:

I can help of thinking on "The Witcher" (There's a monster called Alghoul)

Anyway, I think it's a joke like a spin-off on LOTR ([censored]-g?l)

Edit;
I'm not trying to avoid the censor here but the [censored] is a four letter word that starts with A

I have a chinese/russian friend whose name is Nazgul ... she's very friendly actually :)

but the name Arzghul might not be intended as a game name - just a wip marker that would stand out or someone's last comment on an abandoned project.

Yep. From what I hear it's almost at the level of cool, unincluded stuff in KotOR II. Just goes to show what happens when a release date makes the game and not the other way around.

Hope someone makes a mod that makes the Lair into something real! cuz I can't take it anymore ! :P the cells in my mod begins with almost the same letters as LairoftheArzghulExterior, so every time I go to edit these cells I see LairoftheArzghulExterior!! :P It really must be made into something :P (okey, I'm not really that desperate :P)
