I always feel bad for the old blind guy in the bandit cave just east of Whiterun.

Yep. Now HE gets me going. Does he know what his nephew is up to? Maybe.... probably. But consider a person with a very serious disability in the world of Skyrim.... Not good.... at all. His nephew the bandit chief gives him a home.... and hassles the young bucks to leave the poor old guy alone. Yeah... I have some issues with that cave....

I made the habit of visiting Severio Pelagius to sell crops to him. When I was in Markarth, a courier ran up to me with a letter. I read it, only to visibly frown at my computer screen: this was a letter of inheritance; I was being informed of Serverio's death. To this day, I don't know how he died. I even returned to Pelagius farm, but his body was nowhere to be found. Poor fellow.
You only get that note after doing the Battle for Whiterun/Defend Whiterun from the Civil War questline. No matter what side you choose, Severio's house is destroyed by the catapults firing from outside the walls. So no proof of it but it can be assumed that he was home when it was destroyed and died that way.

I actually cried when that gold miner dude who bought gold died. He was a business partner for my character and that same character lived with him for a very short time when his friend died. He died of a Forsworn attack and I actually had my character pray to Sheogorath to send him off to his world with mercy. I even made the twenty minute long prayer as I went along. I even put a pickaxe and dagger on his corpse.

I did the Whiterun takeover quest for the Stormcloaks, and felt terrible when I saw the turmoil. It was another saddening thing.

Since I almost only play heroic characters, I haven't done the Dark Brotherhood quest. However, I do feel bad for Muiri. The girl basically lost her happy life in Windhelm. Its especially sad when I hear her talk (in a YT vid) in the young female Nord voice, telling all these horrible things.
It is also very sad you can't prove her innocence to the Shatter-Shields, which would be a better ending for both her and them.

I also feel bad for a lot of people in Riften.. Riften seem to be the saddest city in Skyrim due.. Mainly due to Maven and the War.

I remember listening to one this guy talk about his daughter being a Healer and joined the Stormcloaks just to help heal people but ended up getting killed by an Imperial and buried in the mud... Seriously man.. I mean, I know the Imperials do hate the Stormcloaks, and all, but to really kill a harmless girl then show nothing but disrespect to her corpse? I felt bad for the old guy who told me this..

I felt bad for the Subjugated Ghosts in Rannveig's Fast, as well of course for the family in the Frostflow Lighthouse. :(

I felt bad for Sudi...
To have your whole family taken by Falmer and eaten alive by Charus... Then commiting suicide to avoid suffering the same fate...

Falmers are jerks.

I felt bad for [...] the family in the Frostflow Lighthouse. :(
Agreed. It's actually a shame you never find anyone alive in those falmer 'prisons', only dead people all around, so those chaurus can eat. I felt damn good about putting the remains in the fire at the end, at least SOMETHING which could give some peace of mind.

I do not kill Him, and someone keeps leaving him food, in the Chamber he occupies. He is fed and has purpose. You could chose to look after him as well.

the worse i ever felt for a npc in this game is when i read a goodbye note to his wife from a death prisoner( chaurusfood) in a cave full of falmers near solitude, combined with the journal od a death merchany near dragonbridge , i started to hate the falmer more than fearing them, no remorse anymore for them never again, all falmer must die
