Skyrim hit list

[Iron Criterion]

I always adopt the Dexter Morgan rule - justify who I kill by making sure they deserve it.

 

[PureIrony]

The entirety of the thieves guild.

I also kill any Thalmor agent I see(ironic, given that I rolled an altmer Imperial).

 

[Denamic]

I charge at dragons with my bare goddamn hands.
No weapons, no magic, just a fire/frost resistance potion, a dragonrend shout, and one can of whoopass.

 

[electric_warrior]

Nothing really, not even dragons. If it doesn't attack me, chances I I won't attack it.

I'm just a peaceful sort of guy

 

[Sateru]

That crazy raving lunatic in Whiterun (If you visit Whiterun often, you know who I'm talking about... that guy who's constantly screaming at the top of his lungs in front of the Shrine of Talos.) I turned into a werewolf and mauled the shit out of him. DX He pisses me off, Whiterun would be perfect if he wasn't around!

 

[Al-Bundy-da-G]

I have a passive aggressive relationship with the...I really don't know what their name is in the English version, but in the German one they are called the "Abgeschworenen," which I think translates to "Forsworn"? Is that what they are called in the English version?

And I will hunt down Imperial soldiers across the country if I need to. I refuse to allow a single one of them to live. I even slaughtered the helpless, wounded soldiers in one of their camps. My Dark Elf is pretty heartless sometimes.

Oh, an necromancers too.

Let me guess, Google Translator

The Argonian in me says kill the Thalmor, but the nightingale in me says dont forget to loot their corpses.

No...? I just wanted to know what they're called in the English version of the game...

 

[Al-Bundy-da-G]

Oh... I feel like a jackass now, but you were right about the English name.

 

[Ravnican]

I believe you got it right, though, since there is a group called the Forsworn and they are pretty much all dicks.

OT: Right now I don't hold a grudge against anything to go out of my way to kill it (except maybe the Thalmor that transport prisoners) because I'm playing a good orc, but on my next playthrough I'm making sure to hurt anyone that sasses me.

 

[Isalan]

I seem to spend an inordinate amount of time chasing and killing goats for some reason. Buggered if I know why.

 

[Averant]

Once I start a character that can take a few hits? Bears.

THE BEARS MUST DIE.

 

[Malgan]

Them giants, I have made a necklace out of their toes.
I also tend to kill chickens, my character has this paranoia that all domesticated animals are out to get him.

 

[Spoonius]

Rabbits. Always rabbits. They're a real pest around my place, and while the disease-ridden sex-crazed rodents always seem to make it out of my headlights before they make it under my wheels, boy oh boy do I get back at them in Skyrim.

I do, however, try to mix it up a little by varying the way I kill them. For instance, using fury on one so that it attacks a giant, and watching the carcass fly. Or telling Lydia to attack it for me like the lazy bastard I am, then raising it as a zombie and quickly finding a dragon priest for it to get nuked by before it turns into ashes (actually, rabbits are surprisingly good as bait, if you can keep them with you long enough). Of course, there's nothing like finding a rabbit at the top of a mountain and realizing you have a paralyze spell on you. Bear rolling cannot hold a candle to the amount of satisfaction I get from rabbit rolling.

I want co-op so much right now...

 

[bean burrito]

Spiders. God. Damn. Spiders.
They are perhaps the main reason I'm focusing on magic is so I can ACTUALLY kill them with fire.

 

[Worgen]

I'd say spiders, but I'm Arachnophobic so I try to stay away from them, so I take my anger on bandits. Nothing like sweeping a mine full of 'em =D

 

[sage42]

Anyone who calls me "Lizard". I am a Argonian at least, but preferably Miss Clever. But Lizard is just degrading. Also bears and dragons. Also I have a personal vendetta against Sabercats. Ice wolf? no problem. Frostbite spider? I drink their venom daily. Frost Troll? They can eat my staff of flames. But Saercats? There was one ass-hole on my way up to high Hrothgar that just killed me over and over. Now they all must die. Oh and mudcrabs, just because.

EDIT: Also the Silver Hand. Because I'm a werewolf.

 

[KefkaCultist]

Mostly Thalmor. I have made it my sworn duty to slay any of those elitist Thalmor bastards that I see wandering around.

Imperials too though. Originally I didn't take a side in the Empire Vs. Stormcloaks thing, but after what the empire did to a certain family of mine and finding out exactly how much they're controlled by the Thalmor I had to favor the Stormcloaks even though my Dark Elf can't stand Ulfric.

 

[Shaughn Caso]

anything with a name, any of those annoying assholes who don't actually die. I thirst for the blood of entire camps of Stormcloaks and Imperials, but they always have those bloody invincible named people!

 

[Redryhno]

The Thalmor and their puppets, the Imperials (the faction soldiers, not the race). My people have been enslaved by the Elves for centuries, and we didn't beat them back in Morrowind just for them to try to do the same thing over here in Skyrim.

What is it with Elves and their obsession with slavery in this game, anyway?

I think it has something to do with the obligatory "slavery is bad and these guys are dicks" thing that any game that has multiple races in decline that comes out of the U.S. must have to get past the publishers desk, or something.
It could also be that the Altmer, Ayleids, etc. are all inspired if not based on Mid-Greece, Early Rome archetypes

I doubt it's about showing slavery is bad, since the games themselves never specifically say or imply it to be a bad thing. Especially in Morrowind, it's pretty much just a fact of life and an established part of their culture in that game. Us as players tend to believe that the slavery is wrong, but the game itself never forces us to believe that, the slavery is just there. You can even join the strongly pro-slavery Telvanni government party if you choose to.

Edit: In fact you can even buy and use slaves, as I've just remembered. They sell them on the island where the Telvanni live.

Also you'd think that if it was due to their historical counterparts that the Empire would be pro-slavery, since they are very strongly based on ancient Rome. Unless the time period of ancient Rome they're based on didn't have slavery... Honestly I wouldn't really know, my ancient history is not up to scratch.

Yeah, I know, mostly that was just a bit of a vent comment more than anything, just gotten out of a really stupid class where everyone pretty much hates me because I actually talk back and give my own views on stuff to the prof.

It was also due in part to just a little trend I've noticed over the past few years with games that have an alien culture in them and have a large world in them tend to have the slavery thing in them and throw little messages in that you find that are more or less copies of journals from the circa 1840's that try to make you believe how horrible every slave's life was and how they were beaten daily everywhere. And I'm not saying that slavery is good or anything, but it had a purpose even before then. Granted, the journals were kind've hard to find, but still...

And yeah, I remember buying slaves by the droves in Morrowind, only to then find new ways to kill them, like making a 10000000 pt. jump spell and them having them jump and just following their terminal velocity flight downwards.

And the Empire is loosely based on Rome, but has a mix of a few other cultures just with their government, not including the normal people. And very early Rome, when it was a republic there were very few slaves, although that was also about the time they had just created themselves, more or less

Edit: and you can also join the Underground Lanterns as well or whatever their name is

-the snooty redgaurd in Whiterun
-the Talos priest in the same city
