A'right so I've finished the civ war questline for the Stormcloaks. Now when I go to the city of Markarth the new Jarl there is Thongvor Silver-Blood. He is really corrupt just like the rest of the Silver-Bloods. I hate that he has become the new Jarl so I wanted to know if there is a way to overthrow him and place a new fair Jarl on the thrown?

If anyone knows if thats possible please can you reply with how to do so, or if not just let me know if I can do any quest to make things harder for him.

I wish, but no I don't think so.

The Silver-Bloods are the Stormcloaks' Black-Briars. It's another way Bethesda showcases that there really is no "right" choice and the Markarth/Riften Replacement Jarls are extremely less capable then their original counterparts.

I don't think they're "less capable", GC rust...

... just less morally upstanding. By a lot.

That's a fair point, Madkitty... But! I bet the new jarls would say the old jarls were just as morally crooked!

Yeah I don't think so

Cheers

Yeah that sounds about right. Well thanks for the helping anyways.

Blackbrir choice was stupid, the current jrl hd 2 sons, one supported stormcloaks other supported empire. Seemed the pro empire one would be more logical than one who is known to be corrupt, and links to the thives guild and DB.
