  1. Given Helseth's history (read A Game At Dinner. A copy can be found in the Vivec Mage's Guild) and all the proof that he did, in fact, kill Athyn Lethan and his nephew, it lead me to believe that he did murder them. Remember, this is the man who uses his own mother in a plot to test the loyalty of his retainers. The lives of others seemingly mean very little to him.
  2. They don't want to end our pitiful existance, they just want to destroy Earth to make way for a new Intergalactic Highway.
  3. What the...!?! :huh: [CALCULATOR] 7*9 ENTER 7*9 = 63 42≠63 [/CALCULATOR] *Is confused* EDIT: Just Googled '42' in relation to the Douglas Adams books and came across an article on how 42 is the answer to all galactical mysteries. I think I might buy that book.
  4. Anyone who has ever seen the movie or read the book 'Contact' should remember the famous line, That said, I will ask a question: are we alone in the universe? Are there other beings on other worlds in other galaxies with solar systems just like ours? Or are we unique, the only planet with life just like ours? The movie/book brought up some deep and provocative questions, especially originating from quotes like the one above, as well as the quote I must say that I am lead to believe that we are most certainly not alone. That seems to make sense: Earth was created under specific conditions, and can only function as it does at a proper angle to the sun. It is logical that, in the infinite space of the universe, that the conditions that spawned this planet must occur an infinite number of times. It's almost mathemetical: A certain effect, created under x conditions will be repeated an infinite number of times, given an infinite amount of space and am infinite amount of time. One popular argument for the religious side of this matter relates to the 'formula' stated above. According to Christians, because the planet and its its inhabitants can only exist because of conditions that are astronomically small, then it must be the work of a god. I find that to be as factless, petty and ridiculous as much of Christianity's explanations for pretty much everything, including the Creation myth. Even though the conditions under which this planet were created were incredibly minute (degree of planet's tilt, ambient temperature, gases present, etc.), there must be an infinite number of other planets exactly like ours. There might even be planets whose denizens rely on other gases for their processes, such as methane or carbon dioxide, rather than oxygen and nitrogen. It has been proven by the heterotrophic bacteria that can survive in deep-sea vents that they can adapt to adverse conditions and rearrange their internal mechanisms to rely on the current conditions, such as sulfer and high temperatures. So there could be other planets of beings who are like us, or differ only in that their planet's ambient conditions are altered. All that said, what are your opinions?
  5. Vampirism is a common disease, and you can therefore be immune to it with innate immunities or with resistances gained from becoming the Nerevarine.
  6. Are you attempting to correct me? You are wrong. The correct name is Sheogorath. It's especially foolish of you to post in a thread after a month's time to falsely correct me.
  7. Not even close. Sheogorath is not a mortal at all- he is a Daedra, the Mad Lord. And he's not insane persay- he is the patron of insanity.
  8. *Bows to Dark0ne* I accept my punishment, and vow to award the Fishy Sticks only in proper context- in occasions of honour and prestige. :P *Rejects Fishy Stick from tyjet*
  9. Greetings and welcome to the forums. Here is a list by Switch of Things Not to Do. Here are the Official Rules. Don't spam, use the Search function and have a great time. ~This public service announcement has been brought to you by the Cmac Ministry of Newbie Ordinance~ You've been here since October...you deserve about 1/10 of a Fishy Stick. I, however, will give you none, by the Word of Dark0ne. *Fishy Stick rjected*
  10. Happy Birthday! I believe this is sufficient call for a brand new (well, mostly) Fishy Stick. *tosses Stick at thread.* Congratulations!
  11. No, but killing the Ash Vampires degrades Dagoth Ur's health by a significant amount. Once you kill them all, he's a shadow of his former self- much easier to defeat. Also, you get the unique artifacts in each of their bodies. Killing Dagoth Odros and Dagoth Vemyn is necessary because you have to remove Keening and Sunder from their citadels. It's there- from the revolving doors, look down the slope- it's on a post on the PC's right heading from the aforementioned doors.
  12. I'll have to go with MB on this one- Unreal Tournament 2004 is truly a great game. I commend it for: -Vehicles (especially the Raptor) -Fairly decent graphics -Some creative new weapons -The "Assault" and "Onslaught" modes...doesn't get much better than that! -Great new maps -The bug for flying the Leviathan around (love that!) :D I'd give it 7 out of 10. I have played all the predecessors to the current UT, and I can say this was a definite leap for the better.
  13. Depends what kind of soul was in it. I think seh has a Flame Atronach in one of her Grand soul gems. Only a Golden Saint or an Ascended Sleeper can make Constant Effect. Galbedir has neither.
  14. No- you can do constant effect on anything- it would just be a magnificent waste of charge. Exquisite clothes have lots of enchant points, so you can get in a satisfactory spell. You'll be wasting a lot of the gem's energy if you put it in a lesser item because it has a lower threshold for points. ANOTHER TIP: If you don't have the patch, don't talk to Varius Vatinius about duel. It prematurely starts the last Imperial Guard quest- a duel for the rank of Knight of the Imperial Dragon. And it that is activated, you can't complete his quests.
  15. Slaughterfish are an excellent way to increase armour skills- just jump in the water and wait for the fish to bite! Lower-level characters may want to bring a few health potions. Berandas is a great way to get tons of loots and souls fast. All the chambers of the stronghold have respawning Daedra. Kill them, dispose of the corpses, leave, and the supply will be replentished! Also note the presence of a Daedric Dagger and a Daedric Spear embedded in the skeleton in the lower caves.
