Help! I can't find any lockpicks!, Um, duh, read the title ;-) Options

[Hukai The Wandering]

Just what the title says. I'm sitting here in Skingrad (paused of course) and I would like to break into someone's house. The problem is that I have no lockpicks and I only have a few more hours left to break in before the owner can cause problems. What I need is to know where I can find someone who sells lockpicks so that I don't have to go off on an obscure quest into the dugeons of "Lockia" to find a lockpick..

So, anyone got any ideas? I'll wait here for about 5 mintues for a reply (can't break away from Oblivion for too long without getting withdraw symtoms )

Thanks, Demented.


BTW: The those at Bethesda and all the other companies that made this possible. THANK YOU! FOR THE LOVE OF (Insert Diety's Name Here) THANK YOU! *Breaks down into joyful sobbing*

I had to copy/paste cause right before I tried to submit this to the Elderscrolls fourm they went into maintanice(SP?) and I couldn't get it asked...

EDIT: By the way, WHAT"S UP PEOPLE?!?! Hello to all who missed my pointless rambling. Unfortunatly I will be spending as much time as I can in Oblivion so no posting-whore for me today.. BYE!

You dont have to join the guild. At midnight go to theImperial city island (forgot name not magic place). Look around outside the wall for a guy with a torch. He sells them. Dunno if its only if you have the letter.

yeah, if you fast travel to the stable just west of imperial city, which i believe is called chestnut stables you can just follow the wall and you will find a guy who sells lockpicks in bundles of 30 for around $150, same as from the girl in the dark brotherhood when you finish those missions.

by the way, i absolutely despise lockpicking now, i swear i've went to these guys and bought 50000 lockpicks because i suck at it so much lol

Its all about timeing, be light with the lockpick, work it jently. Use all your sences to, a tumbler makes a slightly different sound when it can easly be locked into place, it will linger at the top for a half second longer then it normaly does, allowing you more time to lock it in place.

its sort of upsetting that someone with no security can pick a lock now, but oh well .
