Ballsiest guard ever

I have a better story. I was a werewolf, and I had the Cursed Ring of Hircine, and as I was leaving Whiterun I changed into a werewolf, and as I was running away the carriage driver jumped down and chased me all the way to the guard tower. I changed back into human form and when I was heading back to Whiterun the carriage driver was walking up in the sky! I was like what is this he has balls of steel, and he can walk in mid air! He is a god!!

It was unusual.

That's probably the cousin of the guard who constantly complains about having to do guard duty while his cousin is out fighting dragons.

I had a Thief tell me to hand over my valuables while in Were-Wolf form. Now as a Vampire Lord anyone who does this, stray guard, random forsworn gets flicked into air then power bitten.

That guard is a BOSS. He probably got promoted to captain of the guard of Markarth afterwards.

Were you talking about my story? Because how is it better? My guy chased a werewolf for a good distance, and then was walking in mid-air as if he was a god.

It's not a competition, but if it were, the OP's is better, the guy trecked from Markarth, to Volkihar castle, and walked in to a hall full of vampires, demanding the arrest of one... That is better than a werewolf being chased by a carriage driver, to the watch tower man.......

But then he started walking in the sky! I think that is awesome. But the OP's story was pretty awesome.

Oh I have one.

I had Derkeethus as a follower on one of my vampire chars, oky.. He actually followed me inside some-how when I first got inside.. When Lord Harkon changed form, Derkeethus attacked him and they started fighting (Which kinda glitch the quest, ofc.) Well.. Derkeethus ended up beating Lord Harkon down onto his knees and kept doing so every time Harkon got up..Basicly, he had the guts to owned the leader of a vampire court in front of them all.. Over and over and over again...

Anyways, OP's was funny and quite amusing.

Haha me too, I tried to intimidate him and he was like "You're not gonna scare me that easily!". I was like 0_o... I then proceeded to eat his face off.

Like a boss. No, that doesn't do him justice. Like a god.

I didn't want to deal with Barbas when I went past Falkreath, so I just ran past him on my horse. Later, I'm in the study about to enter Soul Cairn, and as I come through the other side Barbas runs up to me and starts chatting me up, some two hours after I first saw him. I was flabbergasted.

Absolutey the best! I would have done the same. Not to sound, cliché but that is epic - in an understated way. I would hope to have a save very near that point just to replay it! I'd even by him some mead. Maybe recruit him as a follower - god knows he can track! And certainly is fearless!

Lucky you.
