Sybille Stentor, Solitude court wizard is a...

[dianacat777]

yeah she does make comments that kind of hint at it. like when she compares herself to the vampires you've slain, saying they live in filth and she's more civilised.

 

it's not really explained why she sends you after then though. you'd think there was some connection between her and them.

That's pretty much how I interpreted it. She's neither good nor evil; she's just trying to keep her nature secret so she can continue serving in the court (as Count Skingrad showed, claiming to be a magic user works as a pretty good excuse for the inexplicable longevity, so she has the age aspect covered for a while), and having vampires in the area tends to bring in hunters and Vigilants. Much like Janus Hassildor wanted you to clear out Bloodcrust Cavern, she wants you to clear out Pinemoon Cave. Might be competition, might be self-preservation, maybe she has a grudge against the vampires living there.

 

I'm curious, though; why doesn't she have vampire eyes?

 

I hope I don't have to kill her in any future content, I have to say I like her. She reminds me of Count Hassildor, really. The game really does not have enough civilized vampires that you don't end up killing among questlines.

if you talk to her apprentice (the altmer guy) he basically tells you that she is up to no good, if you kill her ( as i did because i never hated anyone in the entire tes series so much) he will subtly thank you for getting rid of her :whistling:

If you use Bane of The Undead, I just did, Sybille will die. She is a vampire it probably was a quest line that was never finished. Bane of the undead sets up to level 45 undead on fire and it kills only Sybille :)

 

Thread necromancy is not welcome here. Especially with information that is already part of the Elder Scrolls Wikia.
