Your death will definitely become Sheogorath-esque.

I'll give it a go... Not so easy for a grey beard to talk with their throat slit.

Challenger: I am here to fight you old man!

Grey Beard Acolyte: dear sir please do not trouble the Grey ones, just ask your questions and go'

Challenger: I don't need some ninny speaking to me, they are men they can speak for themselves!

GBA: you wouldn't want that sire.

Challenger: shut up, after Im done beating these old bags this will be exceedingly easy

Grey Beard: *Scoffs* chuckles lightly, the earth shakes

GBA : Sir please don't make them laugh!

Challenger: what? pfft a simple earth shake, it will be even more funny when Im kicking their faces in

Grey Beard: Bwhahahahaahah!!!

Challenger is throttled down Throat of the world

I would laugh pretty hard if a major part of the main quest gets spoiled by attacking a greybeard, and it turns out a few of them were secretly dragons in disguise.

Greybeard: "Let's play some Fus-ball next to that Ro-w of Dah-cters. Oh sh....bleughghthghg"

As the Dragonborn AND a user of The Voice, I'ld like to think I'm sorta like the One Beard To Rule Them All.

» Sun Jul 31, 2011 6:36 pm

I am going to use Force-Shout to blast them over the edge. If I do not get a PSN achievement for this I will call the game broken. xD

I"ll probably eventually murder the ones without names for their stuff....

Depends entirely how grey your beard is. Really and truly, it does. The Thu'um is only effective with a long grey beard. That's a FACT.

It would be like trying to kill a bunch of sheogoraths and i think we alll know what happens against 1 sheogorath.

One Beard to rule them all,
One Beard to find them,
One Beard to bring them all
and in the darkness bind them.

I guess im gonna have to die my beard grey.

» Sun Jul 31, 2011 9:42 am

thats not true !

you mayhave the possibility to become (logical not ingame) to become a greybeard (they are dragonborn, too)

so you could get a chance , but unfortunately they outnumber you

I don't think being a greybeard and being a dragonborn are the same thing. "The Voice" and "dragon shouts" are similar but they are different. The voice is power/technique possessed by few Nords. In order to use dragon shouts you must be born with the soul of a dragon.

This challenge has been issued the greybeard challenge see who can last the longest against them when the game comes out post your videos of the challenge hopefully i will come up with more challenges.

Here is a list so far.

1. Pick a fight with a greybeard ( see how long you last ).

2. Defeat a dragon with a torch with no dragon shouts ( if possible ).

A bit small but thats all i have for now trying to figure out creative ones to do i will post a challenge thread when the game comes out just post it on youtube and i will show the winners its just for fun.

If you have ideas for challenges i will post them and i will update the post.

If they're anything like Caesar I'll be sad. I should only stand a tiniest chance of living if I fight Caesar. I hope they'll be level 100esque.

1000 monopoly dollars they reuse Shegorath's shivering Isle script with the greybeards. You hit them and you are merely teleported a mile above the throat of the world to begin your your "Quick" trip back to solid ground.

Also there is a challenge thread that was made a few days ago.

They aren't gods they can't do the sheogorath thing they will just whoop your ruined tail.

It was hinted that some of the speakers were powerful enough to teleport. This makes it possible, if not likely they will do this.

If greybeards can dragon shout then they must have dragon souls... so there will come a time, that if I cannot rule them, and they are of no more use to me, I will end up killing them to harvest their dragon souls.

Who can resist the dragon soul treasure trove at the top of those 7000 steps?
