Sometimes my spells launch mudcrabs a ridiculous distance. Goes all the way from the shore of Lake Rumare to the IC.

Once the two spirits behind the false wall in Vahtacen followed me around for days. They ended up attacking me when I was trying to help the rat woman in anvil. Funny yes but the surprise quite put me off undead dungeons for a while. pax et bonum

Reminds me of using AoE Shock spells to launch the corpses of bears and horses great distances. Good times, good times...at least until whatever carcass I'm zapping around Cyrodiil decides to rocket up into the sky and never come back down. 8(

Heres mine:
I was walking outside the IC and saw this rock that had something white sticking out of it. I walked to it and the white thing scratched me! Turns out that this random wolf got stuck in the rock. I cant attack it and it just seems to be stuck there and attack me every time i walk past it :mrgreen:

I decided to be bad today and walk into a barracks and put on the Grey Cowl of Nocturnal.

Halfway through the brawl, my fatigue fell to zero and one of the few surviving guards landed a solid hit on me, knocking me off my feet over the railing down towards the main floor. When my character hit the ground, he got back up to his feet, and stretched back up to the top floor, making me fly as if I were a rubber band. Ended up standing on top of a table.

I got knocked down once, and instead of falling, I was thrown around like I was a deflating balloon! It was weird!

I was running from an Imperial Legion Archer and a beggar walked by at the wrong time and got hit by the arrow that was meant for me. I honored the beggar by leaving a silver arrow on his corpse. Lol it was funny to me but then i was like :O you Imperial [&@%!]!

Ive had something similar happen to me. I consoled a bandit archer to have 255 Marksman skill, and, of course, they get paralyze at Master. He paralyzed me and instead of just falling to the ground, I started revolving in the air...maybe I should get my copy of Oblivion sorted :P

I was playing Oblivion today, and I was at Fort Wooden Hand. A bandit disarmed me but my Sword of the Crusader went through the ground! *rabble rabble*

This one is weird.
I destroyed the great gate and after leaving oblivion I saw Captain Burd and his men attacking Martin. Soon afterwards I was in Bruma guard barricks and 3 guards were attacking Captain Burd. I decided to sleep in the guard barricks and when I woke Lucien Lachance was there...
I thought he only visits you in locations he deems secure. Bruma's guard house isn't exactly secure if you work for the DB.

Well, sometimes when i need to travel somewhere on foot I find I'm too slow. (I play the xbox version so not console cheats) So I use skooma to get around. I take as many doses of skooma i can, then 1 potion of insight, so i stay the same intelligence while I'm super high. So my guy then runs about 400miles per hour and i arrive at my destination fairly quickly. But skooma drains fatigue so when the skooma affect wears off, my character gets launched and it looks so awesome. Does anyone else use skooma like me ? aha

I bought a chestnut horse to ride to weatherly for the 2 brothers quest.
A brown bear started chasing me. I dismounted and starting casting spells, but it chased after my horse. I ran all over the hackdirt and some other nearby town.. The bear killed my horse.. Waste of 2.5k...

I killed it at last with Star Blaze

100% weakness to magic + fire +70 fire damage..

horses are weak >>

Yes, it happens to me (and I am sure with most). I think it is a bug, but it is a bit funny to watch :lol:

I deliberately paralysed myself and fell off Frostcrag Spire for fun, and my character traversed a good deal of mountain upon landing by stretching out until he was about 300 feet long. It ended when he headbutted a rock and snapped like a rubber band.

This is so stupid. I was playing in Bruma and "something" happened in mages guild, so i ran out and one of the spooky ghosts followed me, guards started shooting it, some missed and hit other guards and another missed and hit another one etc. so what happened is Bruma became some kind of guard deathmach arena.

During one of the Fighter's Guild quests, I went to a village and cleared out a whole bunch of buildings of goblins. I got out, and I saw NPCs floating off through hills and away.

I tripped a ball or two on that.

Whenever I train on the Orc trainer in the Battlehorn Castle for long periods of time, his shoulders start melting. And if you hit him too many times before he hits back, he'll stop the fight and say "I'm on your side!" or "That's twice you've hit me!" Then when you re-engage him, he repeats what he just said...


"That's-tha-that's twice-that's twice you-that's twice you've hit me!"

Just today I snuck into the Anvil Gaurds' post and heard one say to the other repeatedly, "I'm taking your place", or, "It's about time". :lol:

Anyway, just today, I went into the Imperial City to see Ontus Varin (who i MAAAAY have made essential) attacking 5 Guards...problem is, some citizens saw teh assault and attacked the guards...seems to happen everywhere at the moment. :Twisted Evil:

Twas a normal day when the frenzy befell the people of the Arcane University, yet I do not remember how it started... Everything was fine, if I can recall, but then the Battlemages started killing Apprentices. Scholars got angry. They fought back. Lots of people died, and they still die today. The University is a warzone.

The only explanation I can think of is that I frenzied either a Scholar/Apprentice or Battlemage, and after the fighting started everyone got involved and it escalated from there... and that isn't even a proper explanation. Rather amusing, though.
