DB Orphanage Fun

Post » Tue Jul 10, 2012 3:14 am

Just read a thread were they mentioned the evil orphange lady and I wondered how everyone has killed her since no one likes her at all. I've fus ro dahed her to death(about three shouts it took), turned wolf and squashed her head, then finally for kicks I beat her to death with my fists. Got caught on the last one by guards just ran.......suprisingly no guards on werewolf though.

Sneak in, one-shot with arrow, sneak out. IMO it's an unfortunate bit of business that has to be done in order to do anything with the DB at all, including destroying them (which I find rather irksome), so I'm not interested in anything but getting it out of the way as quickly and quietly as possible.

Surprised you had trouble with the guards, though, as IIRC there is no bounty assessed for this particular killing no matter how and when it's done. I've done it by walking up to her in full view of everyone else in the orphanage, including her assistant (who is not pleased about it at all, in contrast to the kids) and then walked right back out in broad daylight and gone about my business and never had a problem.

I just wait till she's sleeping and then hit her with my hammer. I'm not the most creative with my kills.

I've put an axe through her back. chopped off her head with a sword, sliced her throat with a sword, a dagger. I shot her with a bow/arrow while she slept.

Eh... walked in... listened to about half of her "You're no good for anyone" speech, stepped into the middle of the room and took her head off. It was classic.. Hadn't had a decapitation kill cam in some time. Looked down at it rolling away, shrugged and walked out.

My orc isn't much for small talk. :biggrin:

I've done this with two characters. My first character assassinated her out in the courtyard. My second character assassinated her inside the orphanage.

I've done it all. The one that tops them all however was straight up walk in and disintegrate her with Lightening Storm (master destruction shock spell).

I just punch her. She's extremely fragile, so I can't even fight her properly.

I made this kill especially nasty given Grelod the Kind's crimes and mistreatment of the orphan children. I snuck in at around 2am, she was awake standing next her desk (don't know why). I pulled out my dagger, came up behind her and slit her throat. Captured her soul in a Black gem for good measure. As all the kids were waking up and getting excited that Grelod was dead and their friend actually reached the Dark Brtoherhood, I snuck right back out the front door.

Dumb woman woke up half the damn neighborhood when she screamed.

I was always annoyed that there is no way to do it stealthily. The kids and assistant always wake up.

Gave her a Frenzy poison and stole her dagger. As far as the authorities know, she attacked Constance in a rage when she gave the children some sweets, forcing the "traveling priest of Stendarr" to intervene.
