Skyrim glitch (Dragons hiding among men and mer??)
So I get attacked by this orc, except the dragon combat music kicks in and this orc starts Shouting at me?? And he keeps alternating between shooting at me with a bow and using Fire Breath! I'm thinking, "what the absolute fuck is this glitch?" But anyway I kill him.
And then I start absorbing his soul. You can also see that the NPC is just called 'Dragon.' So I'm sitting there, wondering if I'm actually getting a dragon soul from this orc. And sure enough, I do.
Instead of turning into a skeleton he lost some of his armor which had me cackling. Not sure if anyone else has ever had a glitch like this. I told my friends about it and was met with utter confusion.
In the meantime, I am using this glitch to further justify my headcanon that dragons in The Elder Scrolls should have the ability to polymorph.
I installed a mod to make khajiit eyes glow because Sharaya's eyes barely showed up and when I took off a piece of armour her eyes disappeared.
Not the first time some creepypasta shit has happened to m through modding lol,
Not sure whether to try and fix it or make it part of character lore, like she stole an artifact from a daedric prince and they took her eyes or something.
My best idea is that she spared Erandur from the vaermina quest and was stricken with nightmares the night after, her soul being sent to Oblivion but her body remained in Nirn, after some mind games and her stealing the Skull of Corruption, she was essentially Kansas city shuffled by the daedra, she tries to return to her body and wake up with the staff in tow only to find it's horns plunged into her eyes.
Cool idea, and would be a fun way to have my cake and eat it too with the vaermina quest.
Plus the idea of playing a blind archer/stealth assassin really appeals to me, that and as a double class into an Alchemist doctor/ restoration enchanter. I'm sure I could find a cool way to make her a ",third eye" with a circlet that she can temporarily magically use should the story context need it.
as much as I don't like the idea of disabled people being "cured" of their disabilities, the idea of an enchanter/Alchemist relearning their skills from scratch by smell, taste, sound, and spiritual attunement, is really fucking cool and inspiring, also ties into the whole "legendary" skill system in the game pretty nicely as well.
