Oblivion Trivia!!!

[11Justin93]

Is it Jyggalag?

[Archer]

Yeah, I also would've accepted his sword.

[11Justin93]

We are the best of the best
Twenty-one of us above all the rest
We'll help you become all you can be
After you've paid us a sizable fee
Who are we?

[Norroen Dyrd]

Master trainers?

[11Justin93]

Yeah, that's correct.

[Norroen Dyrd]

Here comes a new riddle:

Two are searching for those enthralled by worlds of their own creation.
Take 4 and 5 from the one to the north.
Take 1 and 4 from the one to the south.
Make an addition to the beginning,
And get the little urchin that will lead you to one of the ancient prizes.
That will be your answer.

[Spelling Police]

The one to the north is Tivela Lythandas (searching for Rythe), and the one to the south is Kud-Ei (searching for Henantier).

4 and 5 from Tivela = el. 1 and 4 from Kud-Ei = ke. So we have _elke. A bit of searching turns up the Ayleid ruin Welke. UESP says "Welke is an Ayleid word that means Child", hence the "urchin" bit. The "ancient prizes" are the Ayleid statues.

So yeah, is the answer Welke?

[Norroen Dyrd]

It is indeed. Your turn!

[AddictedtoMorrowind]

I don't think I've seen someone who has solved one of Norroen's riddles that fast in a long time.

[Spelling Police]

It is indeed. Your turn!

Oh jeez, I forgot I'd have to make the next one. Never done this before, so it might be a bit on the easy side; it's hard for me to tell:

Underneath the earth I dwell
Covered in a metal shell
Often seething, spurned from love
Death comes when you go above

I don't think I've seen someone who has solved one of Norroen's riddles that fast in a long time.

Haha, usually when I've seen Norroen's in the past (looking through this thread) I usually have no idea where to start, since the answers are usually so well-hidden. The answer was obscure here too, but the first few clues referred to well-known characters, so that gave me an easier starting point.

[tague.84]

Is it Umbra? I can't really justify the last line though

[Spelling Police]

Nope! Good guess, though.

[ZackyZombify]

Metal shell makes me think of the varla stone cage. So I'm guessing varla stones.

[Spelling Police]

Nah, that's not it either.

[AngryNord]

Those Geysir-like things in Ayleid ruins? (sorry, don't remember the correct term for them, but they look like small square funnels)

[all_freed]

Umaril Unfeather?

[Spelling Police]

No and no. (Haven't played KotN, actually.)

[all_freed]

Is it the Fort Grief hunters?

[AngryNord]

The lich in Miscarcand?

[Spelling Police]

Afraid not. Minor hint: it's a (single) humanoid.

I guess my worries about this being too easy were unfounded

[AngryNord]

Underneath the earth I dwell = must refer to some dungeon?
Covered in a metal shell = obviously a reference to armour?

More uncertain about the last two I'm afraid...

[Spelling Police]

Right on the second point; careful about making assumptions on the first one...

[all_freed]

Is it Syl, Dutchess of Dementia?

[Spelling Police]

Nah. (Haven't played SI either... )

[Norroen Dyrd]

I'm far from sure, but I'll take a shot - Azani Blackheart?
