Post a screen, and whoever guesses where it is can post their own screen next. It doesn't have to be Oblivion, just any game you think others might be familiar with enough to guess. I'll start it off with this one:

Hmm, let's see. . . Cyrodiil. . . Bleaker's Way?

Posted by: SubRosa Jun 30 2015, 08:21 PM

That is my guess too, where the one Daedric quest makes you start a war between the inhabitants by assassinating the rival leaders.

Posted by: mALX Jun 30 2015, 09:34 PM

You're up! Yes, it was Bleaker's Way. (Maxical was just passing through, not doing the quest, lol)

Posted by: Acadian Jun 30 2015, 09:49 PM

Thanks!

Yngol Barrow!

Posted by: Acadian Jun 30 2015, 11:22 PM

Yngol Barrow it is. Your turn, Lopov!

Posted by: Lopov Jul 1 2015, 06:57 AM

Thanks.

Posted by: Acadian Jul 1 2015, 12:50 PM

Oooh! Good one, and I know where that is! I'm going to wait a bit before posting it though to give someone else a chance to win.

Posted by: ghastley Jul 1 2015, 01:25 PM

Likewise, since I've been building fairly close. I don't have a picture to offer yet, so I'll wait until I do.

Posted by: Lopov Jul 1 2015, 03:57 PM

Well I hope not everyone will wait.

The pic was taken in Lucius' game in his early days and it was my first trip to this particular location.

Posted by: mALX Jul 1 2015, 04:04 PM

I don't know where this is, but it looks cool as heck!!!!

Posted by: Grits Jul 1 2015, 04:30 PM

Ooo, I know! That's Ilinalta's Deep.

Posted by: Lopov Jul 1 2015, 07:12 PM

Correct!

Your turn, Grits.

Posted by: Grits Jul 2 2015, 01:18 PM

Yay!


http://i.imgur.com/nVIVYyg.png

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 2 2015, 03:05 PM

That's White River Watch, the boss' lookout spot way at the top! I usually find Amren's sword up there.

Posted by: Grits Jul 2 2015, 03:10 PM

That's it! Over to you, SubRosa.

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 2 2015, 03:33 PM

Here is one from a place farther south.

http://i.imgur.com/cdtTf0k.jpg

Posted by: mirocu Jul 2 2015, 03:34 PM

I´d say Jerall Mountains, overlooking Cheydinhal.

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 2 2015, 03:38 PM

That is correct, but I am looking for something a little more specific. This location does have a name, a fast travel marker, an unofficial quest, and a horror associated with it.

Posted by: mirocu Jul 2 2015, 03:40 PM

Ah! Then it´s Dive Rock!

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 2 2015, 03:42 PM

Dive Rock it is, take it away birdy!

Posted by: mirocu Jul 2 2015, 03:46 PM

http://i.imgur.com/Dx0QxPD.jpg


And no, no captions. Just tell me where it´s taken

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 2 2015, 04:37 PM

I am going to say the Talon Company headquarters, Fort Bannister.

Posted by: mALX Jul 2 2015, 06:11 PM

I've got to agree with SubRosa here, that is the gap in the fence I usually sneak in at, lol. And I knew the Dive Rock one, but missed it, we had to unplug for another storm.

Posted by: Renee Jul 2 2015, 10:07 PM

Yes, this is a fun game! I made a thread over at Beth like this one awhile back. Thanks mALX for starting this!

OH my gosh, THAT is where Dive Rock is??? To this day none of mine have ever been there. We can't find the place.

Posted by: Winter Wolf Jul 3 2015, 04:58 AM

Yep, looks like Fort Bannister.

I remember that Mirocu said it was his fav place in Fallout. And I said that I ran scared from that region of the game. He was not impressed with me...

Ha!

Posted by: mALX Jul 3 2015, 08:09 AM

It just takes timing and sneaking so you are only taking on 1-3 at once rather than the whole camp. And a very short ways from there is that tipped over truck with about a hundred Alien Power Cells on the ground near it.

It is among my favorites too, it usually takes me numerous trips to remove all the loot from that place!

Posted by: mirocu Jul 3 2015, 03:53 PM

Of course it´s Fort Bannister


Guess I´ll give it back to ms Rosa

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 3 2015, 06:27 PM

I am going to give it to mALX, since she had it right as well.

Posted by: mALX Jul 3 2015, 06:39 PM

Okay, thanks! Where am I?

That's Jakben Imbel with Maxical, so you must be in Imbel Manor.

Posted by: mALX Jul 3 2015, 09:24 PM

Right! Your turn!

Posted by: mALX Jul 4 2015, 12:21 AM

Er...the Rift?

Posted by: Acadian Jul 4 2015, 12:22 AM

High above Meridia's Shrine, between Dragonbridge and Solitude.

Posted by: ghastley Jul 4 2015, 12:25 AM

Acadian has it. The light is the big clue.

Posted by: Acadian Jul 4 2015, 01:26 AM

Thanks, ghastley!

Posted by: Acadian Jul 4 2015, 02:56 AM

MALX, you're exactly right. Buffy's talking there to her her favorite bard (Lisette).

Your turn!

Posted by: mALX Jul 4 2015, 03:56 AM

OMG, that was a wild guess !!! Okay, ...:

Thanks, friend.

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 4 2015, 04:30 PM

I am going to say Raven Rock, Mr. Enclave Fancy Pants!

Posted by: Lopov Jul 4 2015, 04:47 PM

Nope.

Posted by: mALX Jul 4 2015, 06:00 PM

Mothership Zeta?

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 4 2015, 06:38 PM

Then I am going to venture a guess that is the Enclave Mobile Base Crawler.

Posted by: Lopov Jul 4 2015, 07:47 PM

That's correct. Your turn.

There is an Enclave officer aboard and Billy Bob (the guy in the pic) took his uniform until he found his proper armor.

Posted by: mALX Jul 4 2015, 08:03 PM

Thanks, Lopov! Okay, here is one: Where am I?



http://i.imgur.com/P92Af74.png

Posted by: Lopov Jul 4 2015, 08:18 PM

I know, I know!!! You're underwater!

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 4 2015, 08:27 PM

Oooh! Oooh! Oooh! Mr Kotter!

That is from Point Lookout, off the eastern coast, under one of the buoys. There is an entire T-Rex skeleton down there.

Posted by: mALX Jul 4 2015, 09:08 PM

You got it !!! Your turn!

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 4 2015, 09:30 PM

Let's go to some place a little colder.

http://i.imgur.com/NUQ3qjW.jpg

Posted by: Lopov Jul 4 2015, 09:47 PM

Throat of the World?

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 4 2015, 10:25 PM

You got it. Top of the World Ma!

http://shrani.najdi.si/?2h/JI/4oj2qlux/36-in-xeddefen.jpg

Posted by: mirocu Jul 5 2015, 04:05 PM

I think it sorta looks like a Shivering Isles ruin but I can´t say which ruin so I´ll take a stab at Ebrocca

Posted by: Lopov Jul 5 2015, 05:05 PM

Nope, it's not Ebrocca.

Hint: It's the first ruin you come across in the Isles.

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 5 2015, 05:10 PM

Xeddefen!

Posted by: Lopov Jul 5 2015, 05:13 PM

Indeed.

Where are you?

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 5 2015, 07:00 PM

Let's go back north.

http://i.imgur.com/YeIf3zc.jpg

Posted by: Grits Jul 5 2015, 09:46 PM

The camp outside Kjolborn/Kolbjorn Barrow?

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 5 2015, 10:17 PM

That is it!

Where are you?

Posted by: Grits Jul 5 2015, 10:36 PM

Woo! I thought I recognized that Dunmer.

http://i.imgur.com/21UnTKH.png

Posted by: mALX Jul 5 2015, 10:58 PM

Dark Fissure?

Posted by: Renee Jul 5 2015, 11:10 PM

Hm. I will guess just outside of Fort Istirus?

F5.... F5... F5... lol

Posted by: Grits Jul 6 2015, 12:01 AM

mALX, got it, that's the Shade of the Revenant outside Dark Fissure Cave.

Now, where are you?

Posted by: mALX Jul 6 2015, 12:15 AM

Wow! I didn't answer the "Throat of the World" one because I was out of screens that weren't obvious, lol. I figured I had a one in 7 chance to be wrong on that one, so took a guess at it, lol.


Okay, here is one:


http://i.imgur.com/8kGn2NQ.png?1



Where am I?

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 6 2015, 12:58 AM

That's Willem's Wharf, and Grandma Sparkle!

Posted by: Grits Jul 6 2015, 12:59 AM

I went to the maps and checked, and I was wrong about where my own picture was taken! I thought it was the time Jerric and Darnand stumbled on Dark Fissure, but the red tree and doom stone in the background make it a Fort Istirus surprise that I don't actually remember. So Renee was right. Yikes, I’m so sorry about that!

Posted by: mALX Jul 6 2015, 02:03 AM

Right !!!! Your turn (or maybe Renee's, since it seems I illegally won that last round, lol).

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 6 2015, 02:08 AM

Let's just give it to Renee then. Take it away Gadester!

Posted by: Grits Jul 6 2015, 12:49 PM

Thank you, SubRosa and mALX! I hope that was the dumbest thing I did yesterday, ugh.

Posted by: Renee Jul 6 2015, 01:41 PM

Thanks hon. I'm at work though, so I won't be able to post anything until late today. Somebody else can have my turn. Up for grabs!

Posted by: Renee Jul 6 2015, 10:17 PM

Anybody want to post the next pic? ... Anybody? ... Bueller?

Okay, I will go.http://i.imgur.com/32XYyAf.png

Hint: I lord over ye, who dwelleth within one of mine...

Posted by: Lopov Jul 7 2015, 09:02 AM

I'll guess...Shetcombe Farm?

From what I recall, its owner revered a nearby atronach by bringing him some jewels...

Posted by: Renee Jul 7 2015, 02:40 PM

NO! Not Shetcombe, and it's not really a farm, although it has some crops on its property.

One of the words in my hint is a BIG hint.

Posted by: Lopov Jul 7 2015, 04:15 PM

I have no idea, but I'm looking forward to finding out the answer. I'm sure I haven't discovered this gem-filled basket yet.

Posted by: Renee Jul 7 2015, 04:22 PM

Well, the basket was filled by my Lady Saga elf character. I coudn't find a "Where Am I" in which I actually knew where she was (or wasn't too obvious) hence that's why I chose this pic.

C'mon, take a guess! Think west of Shetcombe. West west west....

Posted by: ghastley Jul 7 2015, 04:28 PM

The hint makes me think KotN, and Lord Vlindrel, so I'll guess the Priory of the Nine.

Posted by: Lopov Jul 7 2015, 05:00 PM

Okay, now that you said that it's west, I think I get the hint:

I lord over ye, who dwelleth within one of mine...

Lord Drad's Estate?

Posted by: Renee Jul 7 2015, 05:13 PM

Nice guess ghastley, but Lopov got it right. Lord Drad's Estate. Yesh, my elf has been "renting" one of the slave houses there for years. Now that her game is on PC, I'm finally able to clean the place up a bit. Make it more of a home.

Posted by: mALX Jul 7 2015, 06:45 PM

Oh wait, I was thinking the jewels were a big clue and have been straining my (admittedly pea) brain to try and remember seeing a basket of gems anywhere!

Posted by: Lopov Jul 7 2015, 07:38 PM

Yeah, mALX, I thought the same and was almost ashamed that I never came upon this discovery.

http://shrani.si/f/x/Xn/1yCOX9v8/339.jpg

Posted by: mALX Jul 7 2015, 08:55 PM

Me too, or thinking I MUST have seen it, so must just not be remembering it or something, lol.


Oops - I have no idea where Lucius is, but I'll bet it is in Skyrim by his outfit, lol.

Posted by: ghastley Jul 7 2015, 09:00 PM

Another guess: the lower part of Lost Valley?

Posted by: Lopov Jul 7 2015, 09:56 PM

Nope.

Hint: What's in his right hand?

Posted by: ghastley Jul 7 2015, 10:20 PM

But you're not actually there. Pelagius just believes you are. And he can't be trusted.

I think you're still in the South Wing of the Blue Palace.

Posted by: mALX Jul 7 2015, 11:01 PM

The "Staff of Worms?"

Posted by: Renee Jul 8 2015, 02:17 AM

Gaaah. Total guess: Fort Dunstad!

Posted by: Lopov Jul 8 2015, 07:38 AM

Correct.

Your turn.

Posted by: ghastley Jul 8 2015, 02:45 PM

It's interesting to note that the worldspace is named "The Mind of a Madman", but the location is "BlusePalaceWingStart" so even the game acknowledges that you haven't left the palace.

I'll post a new image later today. I need to crop and shrink one.

Posted by: mALX Jul 8 2015, 05:40 PM

*mALX taps foot, looks at watch...*



Just kidding!!!!!

Posted by: ghastley Jul 8 2015, 11:18 PM

Slightly lower than the previous one.

http://ghastley.org/Skyrim/images/WhereAmI2.jpg

Posted by: mALX Jul 9 2015, 01:34 AM

Gaaaaah! I've actually stood inside that overlook extension with Maxical, and can't remember what the place was to save my life! All I remember was it was a big battle with Foresworn. (if I'm remembering right).

Posted by: ghastley Jul 9 2015, 01:53 AM

I think I know the one you mean, but this isn't there.

Posted by: mALX Jul 9 2015, 01:56 AM

Oh, okay - good! Then I don't feel so bad about not remembering the name!

Posted by: Lopov Jul 10 2015, 07:08 AM

I'll guess - Eldersblood Peak?

Posted by: mirocu Jul 10 2015, 11:31 AM

Yeah. Thanks for including me with your pics...

Posted by: ghastley Jul 10 2015, 02:21 PM

Lopov got it! Of course it would have been much too easy if I'd turned in the opposite direction, at the dead dragon and word wall.

Posted by: Lopov Jul 10 2015, 04:40 PM

Thanks, I wasn't completely sure but except the Eldersblood Peak I didn't remember any other Draugr ruin in this area, located so high. A good shot, though, made me think from which spot could so much of Skyrim be seen.

You're welcome. Here's one for you:

Outside of http://shrani.najdi.si/?1O/He/2V1cQcrb/9-outside-bloodmayne-cav.jpg is Vion?

Hint: If it's too difficult, think of what town Vion comes from...

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 10 2015, 04:44 PM

umm, you might want to use a different picture. The name of it is sort of a dead giveaway...

Posted by: Lopov Jul 10 2015, 04:46 PM

Damn my habit of naming pics according to locations...I don't have any good pic right now, so you take it, SubRosa. After all, you found it out.

Posted by: ghastley Jul 10 2015, 04:52 PM

I'd almost done the opposite with my Eldersblood Peak image, as I originally saved it as SkybornAltar.jpg. My character took the wrong turn coming out of Labyrinthian and ended up at the dragon wall to the West instead.

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 10 2015, 05:45 PM

Ok, http://i.imgur.com/3s1H88m.jpg

Posted by: mALX Jul 10 2015, 08:54 PM

Nagastani?

Posted by: ghastley Jul 10 2015, 09:29 PM

It looks like Silorn in the background, but the foreground doesn't fit. In fact I can't recall a doomstone in a pond anywhere.

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 10 2015, 09:33 PM

Silorn it is. I am using Unique Landscapes, which may have added that stone.

Posted by: Acadian Jul 10 2015, 09:34 PM

I was trying to place any Ayleid ruin near a pond with lillypads and a doomstone in the pond. Can't recall anything at all. Not sure, but it prompts me to ask if the area has perhaps been changed by a mod like Unique Landscapes or such?

Edit: Oops, ninja'd by SubRosa.

Posted by: ghastley Jul 10 2015, 11:09 PM

So now an easy one.

Posted by: mALX Jul 10 2015, 11:13 PM

Leaving Whiterun?

Posted by: ghastley Jul 10 2015, 11:14 PM

Nope. But you can see it from there.

Posted by: Acadian Jul 12 2015, 06:22 PM

Standing just in front of Fort Greymoor looking west toward Whiterun.

Posted by: ghastley Jul 12 2015, 08:49 PM

I think Buffy must have been there before. Over to you!

Posted by: Acadian Jul 12 2015, 09:12 PM

Indeed she has. Thanks!

Here, Buffy is playing Symphony in Blue. http://i.imgur.com/jdB8AzZ.jpg

Posted by: mALX Jul 12 2015, 09:36 PM

Uh ... the Wolf Queen's lair?

Posted by: Acadian Jul 12 2015, 10:16 PM

You're correct, mALX! Also known as Wolf Skull Cave. Your turn!

Posted by: mALX Jul 12 2015, 10:32 PM

Holy Cow!!!! That was a wild guess!! Okay, here you go: Where am I?

Posted by: Renee Jul 12 2015, 11:26 PM

One of the Mage's Guilds. Which one, though? Dang.

I will guess the Skingrad Mage's Guild, although I can't narrow it down more specifically. I don't know whose room that is.

Posted by: mirocu Jul 13 2015, 03:49 PM

I guess on Chorrol Mages Guild. Looks like Alberic Little in the green robe.

Posted by: Lopov Jul 13 2015, 04:08 PM

I think mirocu's right. Raven used to rest in this bed when sleeping in Chorrol.

Posted by: mALX Jul 13 2015, 05:44 PM

You are right on BOTH counts - I had Eyja climb in bed with Alberic to upset his (jealous) wife, BWAAHAA !!!!


You are up next, Mirocu !!! Where are you?



** I don't know if you who play males know this, but Alberic's wife is extremely jealous of her husband with female Players, lol. (like Sigrid in Riverwood/Skyrim is with female Players).

Posted by: mirocu Jul 14 2015, 12:01 PM

Well, I´m here. http://i.imgur.com/QiMiRT4.jpg

I don´t need coordinates, though..

Posted by: mALX Jul 14 2015, 12:17 PM

I'm stumped! I see pine trees, but I swear there is a cactus behind that rock! And the worst part - I've seen this screen before and still don't remember where it is!

Posted by: Renee Jul 14 2015, 12:24 PM

Whoa what game is that?

I don't have a clue, I'll just guess Point Lookout.

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 14 2015, 06:07 PM

That is Solstheim, from the Bloodmoon expansion of Morrowind. I do not know where on the island though.

Posted by: mirocu Jul 16 2015, 03:36 PM

Well, SubRosa is right and it doesn´t seem like anyone else will give me the exact position so she wins!


The location is the place west of Raven Rock just where the pirats/bandits are. The "cactus" is one of them

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 16 2015, 04:13 PM

http://i.imgur.com/XODjcJ4.jpg

Posted by: mirocu Jul 16 2015, 04:22 PM

Hmm, it´s definitely down in Anvil county this one... My guess is the Ayleid ruin Beldaburo.


IIRC, Lothran had some fun in there

Posted by: Uleni Athram Jul 16 2015, 04:25 PM

Garlas Malatar or whatever it's called? The only Ayleid ruin I know of that affords us a view of an ocean.

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 16 2015, 04:52 PM

Beldaburo it is! Right back to you.

Posted by: mirocu Jul 16 2015, 05:02 PM

You got it! Your turn!

Posted by: ghastley Jul 17 2015, 06:53 PM

OK, http://ghastley.org/Skyrim/images/PalaStahlrimSword.jpg

I'm not actually sure myself which location this counts as, so I'll accept either answer.

Posted by: mALX Jul 17 2015, 06:56 PM

Twin asscheeks Peaks ... ???

Posted by: ghastley Jul 17 2015, 07:10 PM

That may be correct, but it's not the right answer.

Posted by: mALX Jul 17 2015, 07:13 PM

Posted by: Renee Jul 18 2015, 01:36 AM

Shriekwind Bastion?

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 18 2015, 01:51 AM

Blind Cliff Bastion?

Posted by: Lopov Jul 18 2015, 02:02 PM

And I'm going to say Hag Rock Redoubt (or Dead Crone Rock since locations are connected), it reminds me of the ruin where you find a piece of Mehrunes' Razor.

Posted by: ghastley Jul 18 2015, 02:36 PM

And Lopov has both!

I'm not sure if where I'm standing is part of Hag Rock, or Dead Crone Rock. I think it's officially DeadCroneRockExterior2 in the CK, but everything you can see below is Hag Rock .

Posted by: Lopov Jul 18 2015, 03:12 PM

Standing in front of Bravil, facing north? I'm guessing the Bravil gate is right behind Maxical. I see the compass says she's facing north and I'm guessing the mine marker is for Flooded Mine. And I'm guessing that is a Wayshrine to Zenithar ahead of her.

It's BUFFY!!!!! Oh how I miss that face!!! She is in a Mages guild, but which one?

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 18 2015, 09:49 PM

The Chorrol Mages Guild.

Posted by: Acadian Jul 18 2015, 10:36 PM

Yup, the Child of Dawn is waiting at the Chorrol guild alchemist station for that sleepyhead Angalmo to show up for work.

SubRosa's turn!

Yes she is! All your mAlXie.

Well, the only ruin that comes to mind is Vilverin so that´s my guess.

You are right! Your turn!

Y to the ay!

http://i.imgur.com/WiNB9hh.jpg, and why is he so violent??

Posted by: mALX Jul 23 2015, 02:50 PM

It looks like either a Fighters Guild basement or a dungeon somewhere in Cyrodiil, lol.

Posted by: Renee Jul 24 2015, 02:08 AM

Yeah, it looks like a Fighters Guild basement. I will guess Skingrad's FG?

Posted by: mirocu Jul 24 2015, 10:15 AM

Sorry

Posted by: Acadian Jul 24 2015, 02:03 PM

I bet it's one of the Fighters Guildhalls too, but Buffy's only ever been inside the Anvil one. She was on her way to the Anvil MG but was daydreaming and accidentally walked into the FG next door. Azzan licked his lips and said, "I like what I see!" Buffy quickly apologized and backed right out of the guildhall. So, sorry, mirocu - can't make a good guess here.

Posted by: mALX Jul 24 2015, 06:04 PM

I think Bravil or maybe Leyawiin has that rough looking stone in their basements, but none of the pictures on the internet show it that way (and I retextured the basements in my game, so none of them look like that anymore).

Posted by: Renee Jul 25 2015, 12:25 PM

My gosh, wow. Only been in a FG guild once? Well I guess it makes sense. I've had several who had no desire to go into FGs, if they all were like this, I'd also have an "Azzan moment' with one of mine.

mALX is guessing Bravil or Leyawiin. Heck, I'll guess Chorrol. Can't remember if Chorrol has a basement or not, but if I get it right, I've got a pretty good pic for the next bout of this contest.

Posted by: Uleni Athram Jul 25 2015, 01:24 PM

It's from a dungeon or a fort someplace. IIRC, all the Fighters Guild Basements are made from wood and are generally more cozy than the one Lothran is in. Could be wrong though.

Posted by: mirocu Jul 25 2015, 03:35 PM

Well the answer has actually been given loosely now, but I need a more solid answer.

Posted by: ghastley Jul 25 2015, 04:49 PM

Then it must have been the Bravil Fighters Guild Basement, as mALX guessed. That's the only place with that floor.

Posted by: mirocu Jul 25 2015, 04:54 PM

And ghastley is da winnah!

Posted by: ghastley Jul 25 2015, 09:29 PM

In that case

http://ghastley.org/Skyrim/images/WhereAmI4.jpg

Answers of "at the shrine of Dibella" are not sufficient.

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 25 2015, 09:44 PM

That is the shrine south of Dawnstar, east of the road that runs down to Fort Dunstand.

Posted by: ghastley Jul 25 2015, 10:10 PM

You've been there before haven't you?

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 25 2015, 10:59 PM

I have been everywhere with Persephone. She discovered every map location in Skyrim.

http://i.imgur.com/spTOflt.jpg

Posted by: Acadian Jul 26 2015, 12:02 AM

She's at an unmarked site west of Azura's Shrine. More specifically, just a bit south southwest of the cave Sightless Pit. Three skeletons come to life there so it makes a great spot to help J'Zargo with his silly scroll testing. The conjuration skill book on the table is 'The Doors of Oblivion'.

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 26 2015, 12:25 AM

That is the place! One of Persephone's old friends rests there.

Take it away paladin.

Posted by: Acadian Jul 26 2015, 02:08 AM

Perhaps Darryl's great great uncle Darryl. . . and his two brothers?

Thank you, SubRosa.

Grits, you're exactly right!

She's actually sitting cross legged on the enchanting table itself. That is such a wonderfully warmly lit and cozy room.

Righto you are! That shot clearly wasn't taken to showcase the Lord Stone and, given the 2000 pound distraction in the foreground, weather, etc, you have a good eye to nail that location.

Just kidding. I can't get any more specific than that.

Posted by: Lopov Jul 27 2015, 05:41 PM

I recognize the location but I don't know the name. It's occupied by raiders and located slightly north of Rockbreaker's Last Gas. Over the river, opposite of this location, is Roosevelt Academy. Specific enough or do you demand the name?

Posted by: mALX Jul 27 2015, 05:59 PM

5 Axles?

Posted by: Grits Jul 27 2015, 07:56 PM

That's better than my guess! As close as I can come is "Not in Tamriel."

Posted by: mirocu Jul 28 2015, 09:05 AM

Lopov knew the location but mALX gave me the name... Hmmm... Since you´re both right in your own ways I´m gonna let you decide who´s next!

The only ones who´s definitely not up next are Renee and Grits, despite their great descriptions...

Thank you Mirocu and Lopov! Okay, Where am I ????

Posted by: mALX Jul 31 2015, 09:52 PM

Is it too obscure? Should I try another place?

Posted by: Acadian Jul 31 2015, 11:09 PM

At least to me, the location does seem obscure. I'm going to hazard a guess though. My guess is from as much knowledge of Maxical as from the screenshot though. Is it perhaps in Janus Hassildor's castle in Skingrad?

Posted by: mALX Jul 31 2015, 11:21 PM

No, but you are on the right track!

Posted by: SubRosa Jul 31 2015, 11:27 PM

I was thinking it might be Vincente Valtieri's lair in the DB Sanctuary.

Posted by: mALX Aug 1 2015, 05:46 PM

OH! That bear is hers? I just saw this in my email (which for some reason doesn't show the words, just the link) and thought the bear was a clue to the location.

But I still didn't have the answer, even without thinking that clue was a part of it - I'll bet Acadian will know it!

Posted by: Acadian Aug 1 2015, 08:06 PM

Not sure here. That looks like a draugr taking a knee and what looks like ash piled up around the rocks and such. If I'm right, that narrows it to perhaps a Nordic ruin in Solstheim but, even if that's right, I couldn't begin to guess which one. *Le shrug*

Posted by: Lopov Aug 1 2015, 08:20 PM

Just as Acadian, I think that it's on Solstheim, also because of Mielikki's armor. But I have no idea which ruin.

Posted by: Acadian Aug 1 2015, 08:23 PM

Her gear looks like Dawnguard relics (Snow elf armor, sun hallowed arrows and Auriel's Bow), but the dungeon does not look like a DG dungeon.

Posted by: SubRosa Aug 1 2015, 09:08 PM

I can confirm that it is a Nordic ruin on Solstheim. As an extra hint, it is very unusual in the way that you gradually unlock new sections of the dungeon.

Posted by: Acadian Aug 2 2015, 01:51 AM

I'm going to take a guess here. . . Kolbjorn Barrow?

Posted by: SubRosa Aug 2 2015, 02:06 AM

You guessed right. Show us where you are Paladin!

Posted by: Lopov Aug 2 2015, 09:54 AM

Indeed, I mistook her armor for Chitin, since it reminds me of Morrowind's Chitin armor.

And of course The Member Formerly Known As Gade III is right!

Posted by: Renee Aug 3 2015, 02:01 PM

I suppose it was the lighting, or maybe the mist over the water, that gave the location away.

I think I might have it right, because of https://www.flickr.com/photos/hauteecole_rider/17712429100/in/dateposted-public/lightbox/ which is another angle of the same scene.

@ Acadian - I can't even hazard a guess on this one, except possibly to say a ruin in Skyrim!

Posted by: haute ecole rider Aug 16 2015, 06:58 PM

Oh my Gosh, I am so SORRY! I completely forgot about this thread! Yes, ghastley has it correct, and thanks for confirming it on my Flickr album.

@Acadian: that looks like Frostflow Lighthouse, between Dawnstar and Winterhold. It's on that little track over the mountains that leads you past Alftand and Saarthal before depositing you near Azura's Shrine. After over 500 hours of adventuring, Alise and I (and Argis, natch) discovered the place and its story. Sad!

Posted by: Acadian Aug 16 2015, 08:01 PM

Rider has it right! I actually took that shot some time ago with this thread in mind. That's why I made sure to include the trap door, brazier above and, if you look way in the distance by Buffy's right elbow, you can see a great big hint named Azura.

I really think the quest there is fabulously done.

Your and your turn, Rider!

I don't know where, but it is gorgeous!

Posted by: ghastley Aug 17 2015, 09:47 PM

It's the Wind Stone, but I suspect we need the name of the ruin we're looking from (behind the camera).

Is that the exit from Miraak's Temple?

Posted by: haute ecole rider Aug 18 2015, 05:21 PM

I think Grits was thinking of the right place, but I was hoping she would come back with the name of the All-Maker Stone that one can see shining in the left background.

For that reason, I have to give the to ghastley. To be exact, it is on the path from the secret exit from the Temple of Miraak to the Skaal village, just east of the bridge over the cataracts. Alise had to stop there because the sunrise never looked so beautiful as it did just then. So there is no need to come up with the name of the ruin behind her because there is no ruin behind her, just the bridge.

Posted by: ghastley Aug 18 2015, 06:49 PM

And I'll toss the to Grits, as I wouldn't have known without her prompt. Besides, all my screenshots are either indecent, or of mod-added locations, usually my own Hearthfire mods.

The stairs are at the back, over her right shoulder, so she's probably watching Lisette sing/play.

ghastley is probably right, but I'll just say Candlehearth Hall, just in case he's not right. I think he's right though.

Nope, not Fort Greenwall.

mirocu, where were you when I posted my last picture?

Posted by: haute ecole rider Aug 20 2015, 11:33 PM

Broken Tower Redoubt?

Only because Alise kept getting harrassed by Forsworn every time she tried to pass that ruin on the road. One day Argis got just as fed up as she was and took off chasing every f**ing Forsworn into and throughout that dungeon. Alise had to follow him to cover his back.

This was before they married. Boy, did she have some choice words for him then!

Yep, that is indeed Broken Tower Redoubt. The cake is haute's!


NPC Jerric has done the same thing, diving right through that front door when Lil would prefer to snipe the lookouts from the hill and leave the rest alone. No wonder Jerric and Argis don't get along in my games. They must have the same level of aggression.

ghastley, Abiene and Jerric were there on Dibellan business sparked by your mod.

If the mod was installed, how did you get Jerric to leave the temple?

And talking of mirocu, I looked through my Oblivion screenshots to see if I had any for this thread. The only one that wasn't from one of my mods (or the Wobbly Goblet / Lucky Mudcrab) was http://ghastley.org/Oblivion/images/BrendaHome.jpg. That might have been a bit easy for him.
