I know that it's been 200 years since Oblivion, but there could ALWAYS be something stupid, funny, and downright insane. If it beaks immersion than fine, his quotes broke immersion. If you want to be realistic, than just ignore him. Perhaps he found a new Heart of Lorkhan? Or maybe he received immortality as part of Sheogorath's favor? Or he could have killed enough Mudcrabs to earn it from the TES community. Or it could be a new M'aiq, and it works kind of like the Grey Fox, passed down from M'aiq to M'aiq.

Face it, almost everybody enjoyed finding M'aiq the Liar outside of the main gate at various towns in Oblivion (IDK where he was in Morrowind, never found him). I wanna 'nother M'aiq.


EDIT: And if M'aiq IS in Skyrim, he had better have a quote going something like "There are a bunch of dragons flying around, ARE YOU HAPPY????"

Why not just make him a vampire

As I said on this a few threads ago:

M'aiq: 'Be careful around dragons, they are fragile. M'aiq broke one and ended up here!'

I think the devs should just put him in and say "He is an easter egg so Please continue, my good sir.."

Good enough for me.

Seconded. I hope that is in the game word for word.

I hope he's in game (probably will), M'aiq is awesome, first time I saw him and he started running away after talking to him I was like...WTF? How are you so fast ?!

And I still think that's awesome.

I wonder if everyone here gets it.

This one is my favorite so far.

It has to be at least semi-immersible, what you just said it a TES equivalent to a parent saying to their child at their fifth Christmas, "Santa is just a fairy tale that if you get all peppy and happy for, and you behave for from Thanksgiving to about December 20, we'll give you extra presents and say they are from him." That takes all the fun and magic out of it.

Make him a big Khajiit dragon, so that way no one misses him and his awesome wisdomness ( made up word. )
As for immersion breaking untill the npcs sit on loos, fart and blame it on the dog / old person in front.. it's not that immersive.

lol... I didnt think that many people's parents did the whole Santa act.

But then again I got bedsheets for christmas. There's no explaining that.

:rofl:

Bethesda, take note.

EDIT: wrong quote >.<

"M'aiq is essential in every hero's journey. He'll always be there for you too!"

I just hope I can kill him if he's in. Bethesda will probably troll us though by making him the only immortal NPC.

Not necessarily.

Perhaps M'aiq has achieved CHIM.

I want M'aiq.

Immersion is overrated.

There. I said it.

M'aiq is randomly funny :tongue: !

In a world of dragons and orcs.. I think I can let M'aiq slide

But this is a game. We already know it isn't real and there isn't any changing that regardless of how immersive it is. He doesn't need an explanation, although I do like the quote being posted so far. Screw it, do that.

You know what, he should(instead of running) have his own Dragon mount. With a spear in his hand and a crossbow on his saddle.

I'm with Caustic. "M'aiq thinks people who ask for dragons should be more cautious in what they wish for."

mods.

Id really love if Bethesda started selling a M'aiq plush. It could even come with the hood and the hat, which can be interchanged!

Jeez dont give them any ideas, Im already strapped for cash.

LIke this guy said, he is an easter egg, he can defy the laws of everything. Technically hes not really real, but hes just there toi be awesome. And yes he should be in.
