Thalmor attack at perfect time.

Post » Sun Oct 21, 2012 4:57 am

I just got done getting out of the Embassy and escaped with Malbourn, the prisoner, and the elf waitor, and soon as we step out of the cave and the prisoner guy takes off to Riften, and Malbourn says "Now the Thalmor will be hunting me for the rest of my life. I hope it was worth it..." The thalmor assassin squad comes out of nowhere and sends them both flying Emperor Palpetine style. That was awesome! It made me sad for the girl and the elf, but I can't reload. It was just so...real.And at least the prisoner guy escaped. Made the Thalmor seem that much more threatening. They knew that there was an escape route there, so they sent a team to cut me off (Thats what happens in my head anyway). I really wish that this happens everytimee, because that moment just seemed so right. It gives my character even more of a reason to hunt those SOB's down now.

Anyone else had moments like these that just worked out in a way that makes sense?

Lol, the two bosmer die, and the two nords escape...racism!

Dude that is awesome. It makes me think of this one time where I was a werewolf and was running on path near Solitude and I killed a stormcloak prisoner and ran like hell from the imperials. My time was running out when suddenly these Thalmor come out of no where and yell, "Time to die dog!" and other stuff like that, it pissed me off and I went on a rampage on them.

Once the Thalmor came to help me... I fought a Dragon at low levels and got some problems, pumped just about a million arrows in the vile beast... then that female Justiciar shows up, shouting "ELVEN SUPREMACY IS THE ONLY TRUTH" and frying the last HP out of the Dragon with Sith Lightning.
The skeleton came to an hold right before her feed, with her commenting:
"Behold the future! Behold the Thalmor!".

She was a bit scary I have to admit. :blink:

Update: I went to take a carriage to whiterun after the ordeal, and the guards at solitude are attacking me! I didnt notice, but I actually got a bounty for killing the thalmor! WTF? Probably because they were attacking Malborn and the girl, not me when I attacked. Oh well, that goes very well with my stormcloak rp since he thinks the empire are puppets of the thalmor (not trying to start a cw debate, just saying it works for my character.) I will be releaving those guards of their duty early it seems...

The scariest Tahlmor encounter I had was at Fort Hraggstad after a dragon almost decimated everything with the help of two ice wraiths. When I was about to leave, a single Thalmor wizzard attacked.

He was just standing there and laughing. And killing the remaining survivors. He took out about a dozens of soldiers with just one spell each. I was so glad I was able to hide and then watch him leave. He was just laughing and waiting for people to come at him.

It's a plot to bring you down, dude.

That was some perfect timing Killa bee! Speaking of Malborn, I found out recently that you can find him at New Gnisis Cornerclub afterwards.

I wouldn't have reloaded to a previous save either :P

I dont know why that thought makes me laugh. Good story.

It didn't involve Thalmor, but I thought it did. I was up against an ancient dragon and what I thought were Thalmor but turned out to be magic-using bandits. And a saber cat too, but it wasn't attacking me yet. There were also three Imperial guard, but they went down quickly.

My response: OH DAH VIING!!

My scaly partner showed up and helped clean up the mess. It was very cool. And it would have been cooler if it had been Thalmor.

Urgh Thalmor. They tend to die when I see them, so ive not had many long encounters :P

There was that one time though when I walked up a mountain and bumped into a death squad. I was unprepared and caught off guard so I had to retreat but came back later on my terms.

Lol, the two bosmer die, and the two nords escape...racism!
More proof that Ulfric is a racist right there! :D

Seriously, that was a pure gold roleplaying moment. I love when random things in the game happen like that, and just make a story come together.

That all sounds perfectly believable to me. It was probably a mudcrab who informed on you btw...

Some awesome encounters ou guys have had!

I still haven't been able to get him out of the Embassy alive. Brelas and the thief, though. I think Brelas is supposed to show up at the Cornerclub as well, but I don't think I ever checked to see if it's true. The thief (Etienne?) goes to the Ragged Flagon.

Sadly no, I think she just says "huh?" Like she's still in shock or something.
