The Graveyard Thread, Life in Tamriel is short and hard... Options

[Vital]

Life in Tamriel can be hard and often ends far too quickly. Who's died in your games?

DiD characters, followers, random NPCs or important plot characters, this is a place to remember all those who have suffered an unfortunate fate. They don't have to be Skyrim characters, they can be from any TES game, they just have to have died....




RIP Karl

Although you were a drunken miner in life, when a dragon descended upon Dawnstar you showed bravery that rivaled even Ysgramor. Sovngarde awaits

RIP three members of the Dawnstar guard.

Your names may not be remembered, but the names of those you saved will. May you feast in the Hall of Valor until the end of time.

Riverwood has lost most of its non-essential population in my latest game. It just had simultaneous attacks by vampires and a dragon, and Hod and Orgnar died. On my previous visit, it was Miraak Cultists, and Sigrid died before I noticed her. Of course, some of it could be friendly fire from the local guards. Since they respawn, they don't worry about who they're killing.

It's probably not a good idea to start all the questlines at once, and not complete any. Although you get DB assassins coming after you without doing that one, they're at least scripted for wilderness encounter zones and you don't get collateral damage. Doing them in sequence gives you just as many town attacks, but at least you get the chance to protect the bystanders if they're not combined assaults.
