Hey! That's MY housecarl!

I just wanted to share a funny little bug/mishap that I experienced... While completing the "mage's guild" quest line, the town of Winterhold comes under attack. Two mages are dispatched with you to assist in the chaos. I was overwhelmed by the magical critters, and my ancestors stepped in (dark elf power). I must not have noticed it killed Lydia, because the next time I saw her, one of the other mages had revified her. I tried to talk to her... but her eyes were hollow and empty. Her sworn duty to carry my burdens, fulfilled. I watched her turn to dust when the spell wore off... still have a little bottle of her around my neck.

Gave mine away to the blades. Became useless so fast and all she did was sit around my house eating bread and looking depressed.

Some of the random, but glitchy, stuff that happens in the game are pretty hilarious. :lol:

This was more random than glitchy, but I was in Riverwood once and a dragon had attacked. After the long battle I looked around for casualties and poor Alvor (the blacksmith there) died. So I just grabbed his corpse and brought him to the bridge north of the town for a true Nord burial. I just tossed his body over and saw him float gracefully away. To Sovngarde he goes... :biggrin:

Hah brilliant. I did something similar once with a bunch of bandits on a cart. :)

Any time I try to carry bodies it's a huge pain... I wonder if my character is just weak or something.

LOL I need to start making a "What to do with Lydia" list. Her attitude is really starting to rub me the wrong way!

I like my current follower, Belrand (You can find him in Solitude, at "The Winking Skeever". He can dual wield magic staves! Too cool hehe). When I tell him I need to trade something with him, he's rather excited and says "Do I get to keep it? Hahahaha Don't worry, I'm just kidding." LOL

One time, I accidentally killed J'zargo, but I felt so bad I went back looking for him and then resurrected him via console command. Now, he won't follow me again. He said "Go away. You hurt J'zargo too much." or something like that LOL
