Companion Death: I was sneaking around with my Dunmer female mage companion, in Blackreach. At the top of the stairs I had quickly noticed a group of unwary Falmer trotting around their rancid holdings. Now, I was a decent level but Falmer did prove a difficult challenge and a group did pose a potential threat. So I decided I'd assassinate them one by one. My sneak was high-level and it would of went perfectly if it weren't for my brilliant companion. Crouching, I armed myself with an ebony bow and pulled back the string, aiming to do critical damage with a headshot.

Bright side is, I got a head shot. Unfortunately that head shot wasn't a Falmer. It was my incredibly bright follower. She had managed to align her directly into the path trajectory of my flying arrow, at such the perfect moment, I had no time to stop myself from firing. She flies across the room, dead smack into the Falmer group, hardcoe rag-dolling and now dead. To further the blunder, her last act was make the Falmer aware of my presence which ultimately lead to my very quick and untimely death.


My Death: I am level 3. currently, I have no quests I am working on and found myself just exploring. At one point, on the outskirts of Whiterun, I come across a old fort ruin, overrun by bandits. { I have a realism mod and a war mod on at that moment ] With the combat mod, bandits are much easier to kill, although so am I. Anywho, I eradicated the bandits only to find the fort surrounded by a mass group of them, I proceed to slay these bandits as well. I did kill the majority of them, the rest ran. However, in the retreat of the bandits, a bandit marauder emerged, and killed me.

Reloading, I set out a plan, this time I took 3 companions with me, and challenged this marauder. I left that over-grown bandit to them while focusing on a piece of bread. When the animation finally came to an end I faced the direction they were fighting to see how my followers were fairing. To my surprise, they all were dead and the marauder was racing towards me. Instantly I turned sharply and tried running. At that point to things happened.

[both due to mods], I tripped, because of the sharp awkward turn I made and then managed to impale and kill myself instantly on a spiked-fence post meant for defense against sieges.

I wonder what the bandit would be thinking be now, seeing his enemy turn tail only to quickly trip onto a spike and kill himself within only seconds.




I am curious, do you guys have any funny or lame stories with this game? [mods can be included obviously]
