Hilarious Incidents

Post » Fri May 11, 2012 3:09 am

I was wandering around the courtyard in Sky Haven Temple admiring the beautiful scenery when I heard the roar of a dragon.
Drawing my sword I started looking all around me but I couldn't spot the beast. Deciding to look directly above me I spotted the dragon soaring up so high into the sky that it appeared as just a dot on my screen. Then when it reached the highest point that it could get to it nose dived about 100 feet. It proceeded to do this for at least another 20 times before I got bored and wandered back into the temple.

I spoke to Viarmo in the Bards' Academy and he replied: "You and I are the only two around here who are no total morons."

"That's why you're lying in bed with a lit torch?", I murmured ... because that's what he was doing!

I was fighting Krosis with Erandur and tried to snipe Krosis, with my bow, and guess what? My arrow hit Erandur while he was running towards Krosis, and he died, so hilarious :DDD :DD

I also killed Erandur when i Fus Ro Da:hd about seven of Draugrs who were chasing us, May the Divines bless his poor Dunmer soul.

1. Was cutting wood to make some cash, gets attacked by a frost dragon *keeps cutting wood*. Almost dies then kill dragon (but only once I'm done cutting wood of course) :facepalm:

2. Also, I wanted to beat up a giant so I decided to transform into a werewolf to kill him and just as complete the transformation, giant hits me and the next thing I know an overgrown wolf is doing cartwheels all the way to the moon.

I had a reverse Giant punt experience a little while ago.

Some random High Elf attacked me randomly in the wilds, and when I killed him, his body was sent flying into the clouds by my blow; kinda like how Giants will do to you and other NPCs sometimes.

Almost ran off a cliff chasing butterflies...

Oh, and if you ever thought to yourself, "I wonder if I could survive plummeting off a waterfall.." lemme save you the trouble.

You can't.

I killed a dragon with help of a giant. I believed that the giant would not attack me as long as I didn't attack him. So I went up to the dragon to loot his body when the giant gives me one whack with his club and I literally go flying in the air. Like WAY up in the air. My body was just starting to fall when the "Death-screen" ended. It was insane.

Another thing that made me laugh was at Bard's College when I walked past the guy who gives you the first quests there, he's sitting inside with a torch and he says something like, "I think you and me are a lot smarter than everyone else." Then he gets up from where he is sitting with his torch and walks close to the nearest plant... with the torch.. inside. Unfortunately the game doesn't have plants lighting on fire if u pass a torch through them but it was still totes hilar, bro.

After a long time of searching for him, I finally married a male Argonian with my male Khajiit. After the wedding, I went to visit him, then a dragon immediately landed on top of a house and blasted him with frost.

I was clearing a fort filled with bandits. I thought I had killed everyone and I was looting the last room ... or so I thought. I looted some Skooma, decided I didnt want it. I threw it on the floor. Well, a bandit was in a small room behind a door I had not seen.

Then the NPC AI that makes them pick up stuff and return it kicked in. The female bandit I hadnt seen opened the door, walked over, got the skooma, gave it back to me politely, and because my sneak was 97 she turned around and walked back to her room.

I then killed her, but only because she was a bandit and I couldnt marry her. Any woman who brings your drugs when you drop them cant be all bad, right?

Was battling a Dragon just outside the gate to Solitude and i used fire breath on it, killed the dragon but also knocked a guard off his feet. So instead of being praised for killing the dragon a guard tried to arrest me for a 40 gold fine,

So i just ran away from the 20 or so guards trying to kill me, hid behind a rock and turned into a werewolf, then roared at them and they all screamed and ran away. Lets just say my wolfy character wasn't hungry for a few days afterwards ;) and i could commit crimes in Solitude without ever getting arrested. I could kill an npc in the middle of town and people would just run away, no guards, hehe.

I have a few here...

1. It said in the loading screen tips that Giants are USUALLY friendly.. So, taking that to heed, I went up to one. What did he do? Smashed his club into me, killing me instantly, and sending me 500+ feet into the air... Fail collision physics, least I got to see the entire area... LOL.

2. I was doing the quest where I had to get evidence that this guys brother had been kidnapped and I didn't have the best sneaking skill... Eventually I got tired of it and just decided to go for it. Well the only person to see me was a kid and he kept saying "Get outta here, get outta here, get outta here" over and over. I ran into a bedroom, shut the door, and stole the book I needed. When I went to open the door he came in and sat in front of me so I couldn't get out saying "Get outta here, get outta here, blah blah blah" so I shot him in the face with an arrow. He just acted like nothing happened and walked out of the room. I only got a bounty of 40 and just walked out of the house :) (Reloaded after cause of bounty, though). Also, he was detecting me when my sneak thing said noone could see me..

I was in sneak mode in a random dungeon and I had looted some armor that was better than mine, but didn't have enough carry space, so i dropped it. NPC's/Bandits from 2 rooms away came up to me and asked " I see that you dropped some armor, do you mind if I have it?" . Mind you I was still in sneak mode. I said " It's all yours" The bandit then says " Oh, thank you, you are so kind."

THEN...

SHe proceeds to say "Look what we have here, you better run" and starts attacking me.

So much for giving gifts!

I was wearing Thieves Guild armor and casing a house, waiting for NPCs to stop walking by, etc. so I could go into sneak mode and pick the lock. Well a guard walked up and just stood looking at me. I didn't move, waiting for her to continue her patrol or leave. Finally she said: "You're not fooling anyone, you know. I recognize Thieves Guild armor when I see it. We all do. We're not stupid. You better stay out of trouble." I was shocked at how . . . intelligent . . . that behavior was on the part of an NPC. I stood still waiting for her to leave and she just kept watching me. I finally had to leave the door of the house and walk away myself! I get the message officer, moving along! :whistling:
thats hilarious :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
I got a similiar experience by the way.
I just entered Whiterun after I killed my first Dragon and right after I got through the gate I used the force shout in a direction where nobody was. Normally the guards will say something like "wow your are a dragonborn" and so on but the guard at the gate entered dialogue with me and said that I have to stop shouting because Im frightening the people with it and he would arrest me if i would keep doing it. I just replied with "Whatever", used the force shout again and continued on my way :biggrin:

You can't.

You can if the water at the bottom is deep enough ;)

I was in Riverwood when a dragon attacked.

I was fighting the dragon for awhile but the fight wasn't ending in my favor. The dragon took one last puff, turned me into a whirling fireball and sent me skittering arms over legs along the stretch of the mill.

Just as I was careening by, completely ablaze, the blacksmith disparagingly remarked, "One person's trash is another person's treasure." I ended up as a burning carcass at his feet and I thought it was too bad I couldn't see what he planned to do with me after a remark like that...

A giant smashed me about 50 in the air over a cliff (I was dead after the club hit me). I was completly hooked after that.

Playing cat and mouse with a dragon above is a really cool feature of this game.

I was minding my own business walking down a path when a dragon comes. It was a very bad spot and it was hard to see the thing or get any kind of shot off. 15 or so min go by and I had not really done a thing to the dragons health. I just stood there thinking what am I going to do, just then the dragon flies over and lands a little ways away. Then I hear some beating going on and see the dragons hit points go down fast, (real fast) and then dead. I climb the area where it landed, found the dead dragon, loot it, and then at the exact moment I svck up the soul, two giants come out of no where and send me to a high altitude death. When I restarted the same thing happened again, but this time I was able to hide from the giants. Free dragon soul, thanks to the giants. The dragon made the mistake of landing into there camp, and they beat it to death is seconds.

The incident I found most hilarious so far was

Spoiler
Finding Skyrim's equivalent of Dive Rock... which in itself made me chuckle. There's even a few nicely placed planks extending out, like a diving board, over a huge waterfall flowing into a pond below. So I went for it, and survived landing in the water! Then the ghost of a bard appeared and told me he tried the same thing.

I did the giant thing too. I walked up to him and stabbed him in the kneecap. Next thing I know, I'm getting a lovely aerial tour of Whiterun :D

I also hit Arcadia so hard in the "roughing up" quest that she died 0_o

When I made it to the first city, I immediately killed a chicken. A man came running after me and started attacking so I took him out. When I searched his body, it was Alvon, the blacksmith I was supposed to talk to.

Back to last save... :confused:
