sciron524 Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 I had the same glitch with one of my characters. After digging around in the Creation Kit for a few hours, I found some console commands which allowed me to finish the Dark Brotherhood questline. Before attempting any of these commands, save your game just in case they make things worse. If the courier never shows up with the Dark Brotherhood note and you don't get kidnapped while sleeping after completing "Innocence Lost", open the console and type: setstage DBEntranceQuest 20The courier should now show up and you should now be kidnapped while sleeping. If, after completing the first 3 contracts for Nazir, Cicero never shows up and Astrid does not give you the quest "Mourning Never Comes", first, exit the sanctuary, then open the console and type in the following commands. I had to enter them one at a time; running them in a batchfile would not work for me. prid 0001E64A enable prid 0001E648 enable prid 0001BDE8 moveto 0001E64C prid 0001E64A moveto 0001E64B prid 0001BDE7 moveto 0002EE3D prid 0001D4BB moveto 0002EE3E prid 0001C3AE moveto 0008D294 prid 0001BDEB moveto 0001D23E prid 0001D4BC moveto 0008D295 prid 00015CF4 enable setpqv DarkBrotherhood CiceroArrive_var 1Then, enter the sanctuary and the Cicero arrival scene should play out and Astrid should give you the quest "Mourning Never Comes". Before talking to Astrid after completing "Mourning Never Comes", open the console and type: setpqv DarkBrotherhood CiceroTalk1_var 2This should make the scene where you spy on Cicero play correctly.After the scene where you spy on Cicero, I didn't need to use the console again to finish the Dark Brotherhood questline. The only other anomaly I noticed is that volumes 1-4 of Cicero's journal didn't show up in the sanctuary. They are not critical to the main Dark Brotherhood quest, but if you really want to read them, you can add them to your inventory using the following console commands: player.additem 0009DABE 1 player.additem 0009DAC1 1 player.additem 0009DAC4 1 player.additem 0009DAC5 1Good luck!

I just did this, and all it did was cause Astrid to keep seeking me out, looping her dialogue about giving me a contract. Journal was never updated, and the quest pop-up never happened. Edit: Just found out for some reason, my quest is listed as completed even though it's only objective is "Speak to Astrid." Anyone have a fix? :\ Edited December 29, 2012 by K1epto Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knightnblu Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 (edited) I have the same problem. Will try the solution suggested by sciron524 and see if that works. ** The long list of typed commands did not work for me. Attempting another fix by killing the DB03 target and using the SetPqv command. Edited February 21, 2013 by knightnblu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightnblu Posted February 21, 2013 Share Posted February 21, 2013 Failure all the way around. Will have to leave the Dark Brotherhood behind this play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youngloft Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 where can i get the update. dark brother hood has nothing to do with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yuenglingg Posted April 9, 2013 Share Posted April 9, 2013 I was able to get the dialogue going but Cicero didn't spawn. Anyways I'm going through the quests without him and it seems to be working. I have to use console commands for situations when interaction with Cicero is essential. Other than that thanks sciron. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
