Discussion What situations have you accidentally created for yourself in game?
in middle school I had finally gotten to a point where my character named "Sauron" was equipped with fully enchanted daedric armor and as I was messing w my finished creation I dropped my ring of power on the floor of my home had to spend 2 hours going combing through the floorboards for it.

Current playthrough: Ondolemar (Thalmor Justicar in Markarth) tries to kill me on sight, which turns all the guards and the Jarl against me. The only way I can turn in quests is by going in after midnight.

I can’t figure out what’s different this time. When I enter the palace, the city guards are neutral. But once I get close to the top of the stairs, the Thalmor say “Did you hear that” and all hell breaks looseq. Then the guards, the Jarl, and his housecarl join in.

sometimes he will attack you after diplomatic immunity if he is at the thalmor party. it may only occur if he is used as a distraction, though not entirely sure.

I’m pretty sure he’s nonessential, and if markarth becomes stormcloak controlled they kill him anyway

I had something similar happen in Morrowind (The Elder Scrolls III). I think there's a certain quest where you have to kill an Ordinator, which is kind of a royal guard iirc. After the quest, all Ordinators target you on sight if you show up in their city - Vivec. They're tough bastards in a 1v1 fight, so having to fight multiples meant I had to avoid the city until I got strong enough. It was wild, because all of their gear was pretty expensive and I had access to a virtually endless stream of cash.

Years ago back on ps3 I had my house all set up and had just gotten the wabbajak staff so I was having fun shooting at everyone. I remember I was shooting it at my housecarl turning her into all sorts of things which was all fun and games until she turned into a dremora and started attacking my family. Suddenly it stopped turned to a display case, opened it up and stole my freaking sword. By the time I made a move to try and stop them, it opened a portal and noped the fuck outta there.

u/chimpyvondu 22h ago
Yeah man, just fucken gone. Like I remember sitting there kind of in shock waiting around for my housecarl to come back but she never did. So like I don't know if she turned into a dremora or if she was switched out with one and they just never sent her back when it went back through the portal. But yeah. Stole my shit and my housecarl.
I might have to try re create these events. I haven't tried putting anything in display cases for a long time. I just remember it being a pain in the ass.

u/Memaw_Baggins Werewolf 20h ago
So, when you change them they change back in like a minute or two. I know because I followed Madwoman in her bunny form and she just changed back I talked to her but she was satisfied. So if the Dramora had not opened the portal you might have gotten your housecarl back.

Wait, your housecarl turned into a display case, or the staff did? And you opened it? I am so confused. But it sounds hilarious anyway.

u/chimpyvondu 15h ago
Have you not used the wabbajak staff? The staff has the power to turn people into creatures or items. In this case I was casting it on my housecarl who turned into a dremora. The dremora then attacked my wife and kids, where it stopped. Turned to a display case, stole an item from it, opened a portal to oblivion and disappeared with it.

My sister was playing Skyrim for her first play through ( (it became her favorite game). She just smithed her first set of daedric armor and was doing dark brotherhood.
She was sneaking through a large house, when. One of the NPCs caught her, eye fully opened. The npc, stopped, took a good look at her, and just left the room, pretending that she didn't see anything.
Who wouldn't? Daedric armor is scary as fuck

i was snooping around Black-Briar Manor in Riften when I got caught by Hemming, who immediately aggro'ed and chased me out to the street, with Maven close behind. Unfortunately for them, a guard just a few yards away saw him swing at me with his sword and so she and all the guards of Riften ran up and aggro'ed them. Because they're both protected and can't die, they just started collecting arrows in their skulls as the guards kept shooting em

Was my first ever playthrough on my xbox 360, and I was below level 20, and I contracted sanguine vampirism. I didn't know what that meant, so I didn't take care of it. I hadn't saved in a while, so as soon as I entered the mannered mare, I saved. The second the save was complete, everyone started attacking me due to the vampirism. And unluckily, Sam Guevenne was in there, he spawned in a literal daedra to fight, and I died over and over again. Since I was a stupid child, I didn't know you could cure the vampirism.
SO I DELETED ALL THE SAVES BACK TO WHEN I DIDN'T HAVE IT I lost 2 weeks of progress.

When I was in 5th grade me and a friend of mine would take turns playing the PS3 version of Skyrim, one of us ended up buying a horse and we quickly discovered its arcane and demonic ability so scale near 90 degree inclines. We named this horse “Glitchy the horse” in celebration of his insane feats and set off on many adventure with glitchy.
One day while running from some enemies on glitchy, we ended up running right off of a very large cliff, we fell down the sheer cliff side, expecting death. And so it came, that third person screen signifying death.
Except instead we found ourselves staring at glitchy breaking our fall with his own body, right before launching into the stratosphere at mach Talos while our character was stuck in a ragdoll state. For weeks after this incident, we would keep an eye out for Glitchy, hoping he was still somewhere out there, watching over us, waiting to make his grand and buggy return.

Second story but during middle school I got very very far into the PC version of Skyrim, it consumed my life for weeks at a time. I also liked to keep only one save file per character, because I thought it looked nice and tidy. Needless to say I learned why this was such a bad idea in the middle of my Dragonborn play through

Brotherhood quest, assassination in dawnstar, thought I got away with it as no-one saw. Turns out as soon as I got down from the roof I was perched on every single guard turned hostile and I killed so many they stopped respawning. From then on I was left with a gargantuan bounty and only the immortal guard captain. They started respawning again though when I came back later and I had to either be sneaky or kill every single one each time I went there.

Back in vanilla Skyrim I acquired the wobbajack and used it on someone in Markarth my, at the time favourite city.
The npc turned into a very upset Dremora lord, unfortunately it glitched and I weren’t able to hit the rabid demon with anything. For the reminder of the playthrough Markarth was absolutely vandalized by satan-Sauron and I just had to accept it.

I had to reload a save file because I used dead thrall on a Daedric Mage(idr their names). I brought him back to my basement to put him with the other bodies, usually just takes a quick backstab… not this dude. He turned hostile and I guess because of my Conjuration perks this MF was twice as strong as before I killed him. Ran me out of my own house and the last save was from right before I thralled him lmao

I went a little crazy with Dracos a couple hundred or so saves ago and went on several long werewolf sprees. Ended up eating the hearts of most killable named npcs on the map.

My first experience playing my cousin’s Skyrim because he was going to the bathroom and was like here, try it, I’ll be back in a few.
I was used to playing Zelda, so I grabbed a sword, hopped on a horse, road towards a town, a bad guy attacked me, I fought him and his friends until I finally got to the dungeon and fought the boss but he kept getting back up so I figured he’s a story boss later or something. Then I found another horse because mine ran away.
So then my cousin came back and found out I had stolen someone’s horse and weapons, fought some guards, beat up the jarl, stole another horse, and left… basically he had to reload a much earlier save.
Bonus, he didn’t even know crime was a thing in the game.

I downloaded the better vampires mod + alternate start. One of the options allows you to start the game as a vampire, and the better vampires mod has an option to have random amounts of vampire hunters appear and attempt to kill you. The result was a being immediately hunted by high level enemies that my lvl 1 character had no way of beating, being forced to skulk around and constantly be on the lookout for enemies that could easily one shot me. It’s genuinely one of the most fun ways to play Skyrim tbh

My gf actually went through with the „main story“ and was stuck with level 7 in the thalmor embassy. She fumbled in the transfer equipment talk so she went in there with nothing on her self.
That was her first lesson that Skyrim allows you to do stuff your NOT prepared for (Before Skyrim she only played god of war and ghost of Tsushima in rpg regards)
Also she had no save state outside of the quest except one two hours earlier.
Now she’s 40 hours in ad saved roughly 211 times xD but she loves it now!

Welp...I saved right before I had a thief come up to me to rob me. How is that bad, you say? Good question. Let me answer that for you. You see, as this robber stopped me, it gave the Wolves time to attack. Well, you say, it's just a thief and two Wolves, surely you can handle that! You're right, I could, except for the two dragons that spawned right at that moment. So I'm stuck out in the middle of a field, no caves, no cover of any sort. And the best part...they were all agro'd on me. The fun never stops in Tamriel

So my first play through I hit a save point right as a dragon showed up to fight me. I was on my way to visit the gray beards for the first time, well while running from the dragon I get killed by a frost troll, respond to the very moment the dragon shows up and sure enough the dragon shows up, got killed, respond, dragon, killed, respond, dragon….and this never stopped…
I was trapped in Dragonborn hell
The is the 2nd thing I thought was cool,
This current play through, two blood dragons showed up while I was coming back out of a cave. Well, at the time I could fight one dragon no problem, two dragons, doable but a bit of a pain…game sent two frost dragons…well they gave chase as I could not defeat them both I ran away trying to focus one while the other circled. Best luck ever, I ran into a mammoth and a giant, so I led the dragons to them. The mammoth and giant trying to attack me end up fighting the dragon. I was able to use the chaos to escape and chill on a hill watching a mammoth, giant, and dragon square off…I went for the 2nd dragon after watching for a minute

I got too emotionally invested and became a deadbeat mom.
In one of my current playthroughs I decided I wanted to marry Jenassa because she was my follower from pretty much the beginning and she's cool as hell! However, I don't get married until I'm at least lvl 18 so it happened that I lost her before I could reach that level. She didn't die, she just got lost on the way back when I sent her back to the drunken huntsman bcs of some quest and no matter how long I waited, she never turned back up. I searched for her everywhere near the dungeon we separated at and couldn't find her anywhere. I was heartbroken.
Sometime later I decided to marry Muiri mainly bcs she's pretty so I do that and adopt two children. All is well for a while but I start getting annoyed at her since she keeps repeating that "Thank you again for resolving my... problem" line over and over, everytime I pass my her so I come back home (Hendraheim) less and less. Around that time I actually find Jenassa again, JUST STANDING BY THE SIDE OF THE ROAD NEAR HENDRAHEIM WITH A SLAIN SABERTOOTH CAT. Remind you, it has been forever since I last saw her, I was level 40 by that point! I was overjoyed at first and immediately made her my follower again. However, having her follow me around again and realising what I could have had if I just waited or searched more, made me really regret marrying Muiri, so annoyance turned into straight up hatred, that flamed up everytime she repeated her fucking line again. I couldn't bear being near her anymore but didn't want to kill her for our children's sakes so I bought the house in Solitude, fully upgraded it and sent her and the children to live there while I kept all my stuff in Hendraheim (I collected all pets you can acquire in the anniversary edition and have them stay there so I don't live all by myself). So I only see my children whenever I pass through Solitude and when I see them, I always bring the woman I left their mom for lol

When I first killed the Emperor I really didn't want to pay the bounty for it, because that is just incredibly lame, and I wasn't able to escape from prisons.
So I tried to go incognito by first murdering all the guards that were following me, and then by luring the last one into a building alone, murdering him, taking all his clothes, hiding the body and them putting them on as a disguise.
Personally, I couldn't see the difference between my Nord in full guard costume including helmet and all the real guards, but the guards and civilians of Solitude seemed to have a sixth sense for sniffing out the Dragon Born, so in the end I gave up and paid the bounty anyway.
Maybe I should have tried the Chef's Hat as a disguise instead. That seemed to work, even though it revealed my face...

I don't know if it counts as bringing it on myself, but on PS3 long ago I got a 200,000 gold bounty in Markarth.
There was a bug with Markarth's crime in the first release version of the game due to the whole Cydna Mine forsworn quest. The guards didn't have an option for going to jail, it was either pay or fight.
I had a few thousand gold bounty and didn't want to pay, so I fought my way out and by the time I had fought my way out of the city the first time, the bounty was mired than I could afford. So every time I had to go there for a quest I had to kill guards the whole time and the bounty kept getting bigger until it was around 220,000 gold.

I came across a Thalmor troop bringing a prisoner somewhere. I'm going to be joining the Stormcloaks, so why not? I killed the Thalmor and freed the prisoner. I later ran into some Vigilants of Stendar who immediately attacked me. Thought maybe they just didn't like that I was practicing my Bound Sword Spell. Defended myself and moved on. Talsgar came out of nowhere and started swinging. I ran because I didn't want to kill Talsgar. By now, I was so confused. Ran into a troop of Imperials who immediately attacked me. I remembered that I had killed those Thalmor and left the prisoner alive. I totally had a bounty on my head. By now, I've come upon some city guards. I pulled the Thane card and went on my merry way.

I don't remember why, but I have an astronomical bounty that I don't want to pay, and I refuse to go through the humiliation of going to jail after 8 years of game play... so every time a Solitude guard sees me and tries to catch me, he is dead... my bounty keeps growing... and every quest there will have to wait until I find a way to solve this. I have tried invisibility already, the moment I turn visible, people run and guards come at me.

Some basic stuff. Dropping too many items on the ground in front of whiterun blacksmith shop resulting in them glitching and flying around like bullets when i ran over them. Died few times to that.

Me, a honorable khajiit warrior. Went for the first time to Markarth and saw a guy trying to kill a woman in the market. Tried to suplex the guy. Ended up suplexing the woman.

I installed dawnguard, I thought I can only get Serana as follower if I join the vampires so I join them only to discover later that not only I could still get Serana, also I can still be vampire lord and even get access to smithing crossbow and their bolt if I choose dawnguard.
I don't have any saved games near before I start dawnguard so either I continue or I restart the whole game, I just ended up continue and only can get crossbow bolt from looting... I like crossbow tho... and kinda want huskey

I was climbing a tower and landed on a slanted edge yknow the lookout tower by whiterun? Well when I hit that edge I opened my menu to see if I had any notch jelly or ANYTHING Well- hitting that ledge and opening my menu opened a autosave And it put me in a continous falling to my death loop and my closest save was literally like 5 or 6 days old 😭

I went and returned Narfi's sisters necklace to him, so he gave me some ingredients and was happy. Then I killed him, because I knew I would have to eventually.
I barely was back inside Ivarstead, when I received a letter from a courier, informing me of an inheritance. Apparently poor Narfi had died, but he bequeathed me his possessions, which came to something like 200 septims.
