I like the crazies in the Shivering Isles that talk gibberish until you ask them about rumors, and they say "You know, I hear someone finally moved those gaunlets..." or something similar.

SPOILER. Don't read if you didn't finish the Theieves Guild Questline.

Corvus Umbranox told me "They say someone actually stole one of the Elder Scrolls." He also told me that he doesn't believe there actually is a Gray Fox.

I was bored once, so while the maid for Rosethorn Hall, Eyja, was sleeping, I killed her in her sleep. She died, but instead of going limp like dead bodies do, all her different body parts stretched and rolled away. It was pretty weird. I could drag her head far away from her body, but it was still connected to her body by a taut piece of skin. Weird glitch...

I was in Anvil once and decided to fast-travel to Cheydinhal to get my rward for the DB quest of killing the captain. I couldn't because it said "you cannot fast-travel when enemies are nearby". Next thing I know all the guards are running out of the city. Decided to follow them... the were running god know where. I started running all the way to Cheydinhal. The guards went in the Imperial City and i followed them. They went to the Marie Elena on the waterfront to look at the captains corpse. Strange. I still couldnt fast travel after so I reloaded a previous save and everything was fine.

I only just remembered this one... I was doing the DB quest where you have to fake that guy's death, I walked in and half his tongue was really really long and actually going through his bottom lip... don't have a screenshot but it was completely rigid... weird

Had something funny happen the other day...

Glarthir was killed by the guards ages ago on the front steps of the Chapel in Skingrad (I reported him to the guard). His body is STILL there...

Anyhow, as I was walking towards the church (still far away, but close enough to hear), I overheard a guard who stopped by him..."Are you alright citizen?" (as he was looking down at him). It just cracked me up....

Lol you gotta watch this all of them

Also one time a Bruma Guard was sneaking towards the gate and went over to the guards there he pickpocketed one of them and then tried sneaking away but the guards just attacked and slaughtered him after that all the Bruma guards started attacking each other (it was great fun)
some time after almost everybody was dead but suddently one of the surivors went to sneak mode and tried pickpocket another guard and the massacre repeated then the guards was just going from body to body and saying: The body is still warm seems like theres a killer on the loose or something like that

It was really fun!

I was practising sneak in the Skingrad Mages' guild... I went into one room with Vigge the Cautious in the bed already... then a few minutes later, in comes Sulinus Vassinus, who promptly gets in bed beside Vigge (they're both males) and flops his hand over on him and goes to sleep too.

I saw that too.

The weird thing is that I only see it happen with those two.

This didn't happen to my character, but my husband's. He did something naughty in Leyawin and ran out of town with two guards on his tail. He swam some place and they still chased him. He jumped on a rock and the guards did the "running around the rock" thing. He decided to play with them and started shooting fireballs at them to get his destruction leveled. They couldn't get them, so why not. Then one of the guards disappears "whew one less guard to deal with"

So he is shooting at this other guard. Now he is at a lower level and we didn't know about the dupe glitch, so shooting arrows does no good. About two minutes later the other guard comes back with a bow and arrow!!! He ended up having to reload the prior save, but it was hilarious.

Bump, because this topic is too long to be worth duplicating

So my newly created character did what I usually do when starting out--first explore the world on foot a while, then do the entire arena questline so that I can get a feel for the fighting style I want to use with the character.

Since I was trying to level my endurance, I decided to fight using the heavy armor, but the fact that I hadn't found any storage for my character meant the armor + weaponry tended to over-encumber her. Since I don't think any of the arena containers are safe, I just threw some goblin shaman staffs on the ground in an inconspicuous corner.

After fighting my way up the arena ranks, I noticed that the blue team gladiator had discarded his bow because it broke. The next time I went for a fight, I saw he had equipped one of my valuable totem staffs! He would keep it strapped to his back and stand there, staring helplessly at the archery target. Poor guy.

The most funny glitch that has ever happened to me was when I saw a minotaur fall out of the sky. It was hilarious. When it landed, it got up to fight me, but I shot it with an arrow and it died.

Or, when Muurine had 11k of clubs on her, I don't know how she carried it all, it weighed about 100k "burden points".

The dog-loving Bruiants were standing beside the Great Oak of Chorrol, engaged in conversation. I strolled past on my way to the Fighter's Guild, and couldn't help but notice the couple's two dogs circling their feet. Bored, I quicksaved, and grabbed my faithful warhammer Volendrung, and with two deft swings, two dead dogs roll in seperate directions. Rena Bruiant turns around and accuses me of stealing something, (

) but is quickly silenced as Volendrung cracks her skull. Rimalus Bruiant drops his glance and looks at his wife's corpse. "Glad it wasn't me." He says, and casually walks down the street.

DUDE! Check your bounty! 30400!

bas237 · Post by **bas237** » Wed May 07, 2008 2:23 pm

Haven't you ever had a bounty of 30.000+?

Going on a killing spree is sooooo fun, and it's relatively easy to reach such a high number.

Caldyn_Blade · Post by **Caldyn_Blade** » Wed May 07, 2008 2:37 pm

I killed a Wraith the other day, and part of it was "stuck" in stone, so it didn't collapse like they normally do...it just looked frozen in time, floating there, but with one hand in the stone....(though you could still loot it)....

Was going to the Arcane University and every mage was dead except for the mages in the tower.

I created a character for the purpose of roleplaying a maniac... turned the slider to easy and went nuts... Got well over 250,000 bounty before I got bored =P

I once did a just for fun save where I got on top of some houses in Bravil, and then started sniping everyone... All the guards could do was to try and shoot me back, but I always took them out first (but man did they take a lot of arrows!) I had to keep duping more, before nobody finally moved on the ground below...hehe....

Bravil's great if you're looking to test your Acrobatics... There's even a chest on top of one of the houses...

What's in it?

Caldyn_Blade · Post by **Caldyn_Blade** » Wed May 07, 2008 7:36 pm

Random junk mostly, and some gold.
It's easy to do a few roof to roof jumps in Bravil, and you don't need that high of an Athletics score to do it.....

On my american version of oblivion, rumor is spelled rumour in the loading screen, but rumor everywhere else.

xenolion · Post by **xenolion** » Sat May 10, 2008 1:22 am

I just finished the retaking the fringe quest and after escaping the Fort, I went back to Passwall where all the prior dead bodies were standing up with thier arms stretched out. I walked through them and sliced them, nothing.

I called to my husband, and he comes in the room. I walk through a character, nothing then sliced her again and she tumbles down.

I also had a bear die in the seated position. He looked like a teddy bear.

Oh does anyone notice that the Xivaldi's die with their lion clothes sticking straight up?

Blackhawk Vegal · Post by **Blackhawk Vegal** » Sun May 11, 2008 1:36 am

few things i noticed, graphic wise.

all doors have handles on the right hand side, their never on the left,

when you open a chest. the wheels run against the sliding mech.
wheels rolling counterclockwise, the lock doesnt roll left, it should go right,

then ealrier today i completed the collecters quest,
went back and took all the Ayleid statues.

set them up arounf the haunted house(in skingrad)
put them all up on the seats ans cupboards and one in Anvil on the Window seal, left and came back the first time, THEY ALL fell half-way thur whatever they ere sitting on.

came back a second time, THEY ALL just about disappeared, except for the points sticking out of the tops of whatever they were on, took forever just to get them back, trying to hit one of the points, the ones on the second floor, on the 2 seats next to the stairs, I had to goto the first flood and grab them out of the celling, same with the one in Anvil, was half-way thur the rock. guess their some places they cant be set, cause for the longest time, before i did the quest, i had 2 of them sitting on the bench in the main lobby of skingrad, they never fell thur.

plus i call the Skingrad house haunted, cause everytime i come in, something has been moved or knock-over, so i gave up an fixing things,

another thing, i think that Ceclia's longsword is haunted also, no matter where i put it, in a display case, cupboard, chest, it finds it way out of and ends up on the floor and if i leave it on the floor, everytime i come back in, it move across the floor acouple of feet at a time.

this house is amazing, i have every haouse but the one in IC, cause i killed her, long time ago, not having problems in the others, except for the Ayleid statue in Anvil
