Where Are You Today? Options

Indeed. The coast of Anvil is spectacular.

Snaat Rayag just rented a horse (another of my wacky ideas) and was headed to his manor at the foot of the Jerrals. But it's getting late. So he returned to Bruma to spend the night in Olav's Tap and Tack. He's not gonna try to make any sales in Bruma though; his bounty is at already at 480. One more "I'M CALLING THE GUARDS" and every fockking guard will come after him.

Edit: In fact there were four more cawls to the guards. And then when a guard accosted him on the road Snaaty cast a zombie. 🧟‍♀️ I forgot that doing so is like committing assault. So now that he's in Chorrol's jail his bounty was 1600!

Skooma is illegal in my game, so before going to jail my skooma dealer carefully hid his 9 remaining bottles for sale in a safe Battered Crate, in Crumbling Mine.

Upon release from jail a whole slew of unused Skills got decreased by 1. His Sneak got reduced by 3!!!

And it's also summer. Mid-Year 2. When he went in it was Second Seed (still spring)!

Lothran is roaming the Anvil county. Today he visited Lord Drad's estate. Oh, sorry; the Ogres' estate. He also visited the shrine to Malacath and has currently spent a night in his tent by the shipwreck.

No ogres in my game. I'm not sure if they're there by default, or if we have to start a quest. Some of my characters use one of the Slave Houses (the less messy one) as a place to stay.

Haven't been playing any Oblivion, hence my silence lately. Enjoy it while it lasts!

Lord Drad's estate is indeed quest-related.

The silence is deafening.

The date is Tirdas, Sun's Dusk 19 and Saga just arrived at Lord Drad's Estate.

There, just pulled a PhonAntiPhon.

Well, well. Looks like Saga is where Lothran is... ish. Btw, how's the state of the chapel of Dibella in Saga's world? In Lothran's it's ruined due to an unfortunate and accidental installment of KotN. It's been deactivated but the damage is done

That's another point against KotN. KotN doesn't let you clean up the chapel until KotN is completed. I'm sure you did but did you try to force complete KotN?

What's a PhonAntiPhon? I'm still working on the Lopov thing.

No, I deactivated it and just didn't bother with the chapel. Nothing else is affected anyway so it's not a big problem.


And a Phon is just that; a time, date and location. Nothing more

mirocu: It's probably destroyed 'cause I do have Knights installed. I could change this of course, but so far never have.

macole: PhonAntiPhon is (was?) a member of our community who would post very LARGE stories sometimes, right into these Where Are You Today? threads, especially in Bethsoft's forums.. Except this one time, he posted a very short character update: literally it was "Just outside of Greenmead Cave" or some such. One sentence. Didn't even say his character's name, which was Niamh!

Maybe nobody remembers this moment, but it was pretty funny at the time. Guess you hadda be there, though.

And with Lopov, I assume you are talking of a Lopov shot. Lopov would often take pictures of his characters by placing the 'camera' dead-center, right in front of them. Here is an example, really that's one of my characters, but that's what a Lopov Shot is.
And here is Laprima.

AGain, it became a thing between us, sort of a joke. "Do you know you always take a picture with the camera dead-center in front of them? WHY?" ... I can't remember what his answer was. Probably had something to do with being able to stare into their "soul". Like, if you sit right in front of someone and stare into their eyes... It's like you gain some insights into their very essence.
