Salusasecondus Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Isn't it wierd that in Skyrim there is a civil war yet it is quite possible you can go about your life in Tamriel and not even know it?I find the whole thing unrealistic and annoying and this mod will fix this! EXECUTIONS! Every town has a chopping block and in the dungeons of every city are prisoners (either imperial soldiers or stormcloak rebels)Each morning a guard will walk to the dungeon, stand near the cell door and it will unlock. The guard npc will escort the prisoner npc to the chopping block right in the centre of town and the npc will be executed. This will happen each morning. "But wait, there is more?" Yes there is. You can try and rescue them either from the cells or the block. If the npc flees from the city, wait a few days and you will get a letter from the courier written to you from the family / or commanding officer of the soldier. It will be a letter of thanks and also contain some gold as payment for your kindness. If your bounty gets high enough you too can be executed. When you rest in your cell you will not be free, you will see that YOU have taken the place of the npc and you are standing in your cell, the guard will be coming to your cell.....kinda reminds me of Cyrodiil. You cannot control your character, you will be forced to follow the guard, your hands bound. Once the axe swings, you will receive stats that cause damage such as fire damage per sec etc, anything that will just kill you almost instantly. However there is a way to escape....two ways infact. 1) Do not rest in cell, use your lockpick to escape as per normal. 2) Boost relations with Thieves guild or Dark Brotherhood.If you are established rank OR have high disposition with the leader, an npc will spawn as you are on the block (or just before it)It will be called ' Thieves Guildmember' or Dark Brotherhood Assassin' and they will instantly be hostile with the guards. This will of course interrupt the script to kill you, give control back to your character and you can of course then run for your life or help your guild member in the fight. How does this sound guys?Would this be hard to do?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jodi79 Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 i don't know if it's hard, but at least the first part would be amazing, and would give a lot of immersion.. i asking for something like from months ^^ hope you'll have more luck :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deleted1308005User Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 I truly hope someone would make "generic" public executions.Nothing too complicated. > Stormcloaks, Imperials, Thieves, Necromancers and so on. No explanations needed for "why is this man executed", just executions. :biggrin: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salusasecondus Posted January 29, 2013 Author Share Posted January 29, 2013 Exactly. The head chopping was an amazing sight when i first entered solitude and it is a shame it is not used more often.Thing is aswell, it would be amazing for roleplaying too. I'm sure a member of the thieves guild spoke about ' jail breaking' people. It would be a cool little way of making money and when you look and think, it does seem like a legit job in a fantasy world such as this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matortheeternal Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 I like it. The forced nature of player executions seems a bit annoying to me though, especially if you're a bitchin' wizard or something. If you have the power to easily pwn all those stupid guards even without armor or weapons, or at least to escape, you should be given the chance. A simple fus ro dah is all it takes to screw everything up and make an escape. Of course, they could also drug you, or put a cloth in your mouth. Just sayin'. The dragonborn ain't gonna get his head lopped off at an execution without at least attempting to escape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roviakin71 Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 I think every time the player is about to be executed some outside force intervens. If you done the main quest it would be Odahviing who comes to rescue you by attacking what ever town you are being executed in a similar manner to what Alduin did at the start of the game, execpt Odahviing is saving you while Alduin was trying to kill who ever he thought was the dragonborn (Alduin didn't exactly knew who was the dragonborn at the time) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salusasecondus Posted January 30, 2013 Author Share Posted January 30, 2013 (edited) Your above points are good but it would mean that you wouldn't be executed.If you can freely walk around they couldn't chop your head off. The fact you are a wizard and can pwn everyone wouldn't change much because they would bind your hands so you cannot move them in the specific way to cast a spell. The fact you are dragon born wouldn't change much either as they would put a fold over your mouth like they do ulfric stormcloak.You couldn't call for Odaviing as you cannot call him as you are gagged ((although it would be good at add him as a 'chance' rescue'. However....with all of that said....... Maybe if you have a lockpick, don't use it on the cell door, activate it in inventory and you be presented with lockpicking screen maybe?And if you are successful you are free to move and fight? That would work!! omg somebody please do this! I would love this but also have npc crowds gather as you are about to be executed.Your wife and friends will show up too to watch and be upset...some may take matters into their own hands if they are of a fighting background. HOWEVER.....if an outside force intervenes all of the time it would make the executions boring.there would be no sense of urgency to escape as you know you are to be rescued.I think having your entire life rest on your lockpicking ability or your silver tongue with your companions a very powerful addition to the game.

I agree that you shouldn't be able to escape all the time. But at high levels especially, it wouldn't make sense to make you hopeless. A full-fledged dragonborn doesn't need dark brotherhood or thieves guild members to save them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
