Yes, poor Alvar died in mine too. I tried to drag his corpse to Whiterun but got distracted along the way and now cant find it!

He tastes good with Salt and Tabasco.

Alvar kind of has it coming. I've seen him during dragon attacks because he and the trader are the only reasons I ever stop by there during gameplay. Or to sell wood to Hod. But Alvar's crazy ass doesn't snag a bow, he goes for the large 2h warhammer on his wall and goes charging for the dragon. He's a dumb mother [censored] but he has some balls, I'll give him that.

He's not dumb.
a true nord never backs down

Of all peeps it had to be Alvor the blacksmith/shop & Faendal follower/trainer... damn dragons.

Yeah on one of my playthroughs Alvor died, Sigrid wandered over and said "What a mess" and then went home.

What a cow.

I also had an dragon attack to Riverwood. Too early in the game for me to really do much damage so it was up to the Jarl's men to kill the beast. I helped out where i could and absorbet the soul. Then i found Feandal dead near the woodmill and also woman that owns the mill (forgot here name). Alvor did survived the attack so i feel a bit more blessed. Too bad for Feandal though, i could use some bow training

i can't stand dieing npcs.... i do everything to protect them all from dieing.

one time i was traveling from shop to shop, looking for blacksmith stuff. since i needed room to carry stuff, i left my armor and shield in breezehome and just went from town to town with normal clothes and a sword. as i arrived in riverwood a damn elder dragon appeared... i mean.. i was like "wtf why not just a normal dragon"

i saw all this poor villageppl, obviously totally scared... ..... running towards that damn dragon with stupid little iron daggers and were like "LOL I KILL YOUUUU"

i spammed dragon rend and powerbash with my onehand sword to keep the dragon from attacking in anyway and used all my health and stamina potions

i already got a ghost town and now i do everything to save every single npc i can help.

basically if parent a + parent b=dead child goes to orphanage

I thought family members were supposed to replace dead people. I read that about skyrim before release.
