Daethar

dc4bs thats awesome. for a bit of amusement find a high level goblin shaman and have a fight of the summoned headless zombies :P oh, i've got another recent one (just had to quit oblivion for a bit like 5 minutes ago, and it happened soon before that). (note, I have both the deadly trap mod and random monster level mod on) I was in an Oblivion gate, fighting Daedra, mostly slinking around and dropping them with arrows (lots of arrows). I go into a room, find a fire atronarch and some scamps, no biggie for me, so I take out the scamps. I level an arrow at the atronarch, in sneak mode, when suddenly I feel a huge shaking, my sneak indicator shows that I am visible, and I think "Oh no I got attacked from behind!" I jump out of sneak mode and try to shoot the atronarch before it gets me, and about 6 arrows and 3 fireballs later I am spinning circles trying to find out what hit me. Go back into sneak mode, and I am hidden again! alright...I go up the stairs, and see a huge hallway, and I stop at the corner enough to see a level to activate a trap. Careful now, I round the corner, to find a Daedroth and a Dremora both dead by huge guillotine trap. Apparently they heard me and were so anxious to come put the hurt on they forgot to turn off their own traps :happy:

Oh oh oh oh oh, speaking of friend clobbering, I've got a couple stories. I was on a quest to draw out a robber on a highway so we could deal with them. I start strolling down the road, my friendly NPCs following at a distance, and I notice a guard in front of me. "Oh good, he will probably help," I think. So the robber pops out, attacks me, and all the NPCs come to my aid. However, as soon as said robber hits the ground, the guard apparently didn't like that my friendly NPCs attacked without provocation, and he went at it. They both died, and the guard resumed his rounds. Made me feel really bad, so I kept reloading until the guard didn't interfere at all. And this other time (warning there are possible spoilers here, so I will try to be vague on details), I was riding towards Bruma and saw a bandit in the middle of two Imperial archers. I guess he couldn't decide who to chase, because they kept firing arrows at him and he stood and took it. Now, I did see the occasional arrow miss and hit the other archer, so when he died, what do the good Imperials do but attack each other? Even when I try to step in and take the hits, they do not stop. Eventually, one of them died, and the other took off into the woods at full sprint, I think chasing a deer. Later, I left town, saw him STILL running through the countryside, and he came to help against a wolf that I got in a fight with. Aww, thanks, guy. Time went on, and I was sent on a quest to take out some spies based in Bruma. I was waiting around where they were supposed to show up, waiting for nightfall (which is when they show up), and suddenly I see a message pop up: "I have killed the first of the spies, I should go tell the captain of the guard." Whaaaaat? I look below the ridge I was perched and hiding on and see the archer booking it at full speed, off after another deer. Danged crazy archer took out the NPC before I even saw him!

I was in the Arcane University, and I saw students sitting down in the lecture area. An instructor was walking up there, so I took a seat (which made the npc next to me react to my presence and stare at me...sorta freaked me out, but hey I was in full armor maybe he thought I was odd) and I proceeded to hear a lecture on the nature of Runestones. All this happened while in an actual lecture hall, sort of ironic hehe. Oblivion, the only game that recreates sitting in class! But with armor!
