Let's Play: The Elder Scrolls I: Arena - Got The Moves Like Jagar!

I wander around the dungeon for quite some time killing things.

Attachment 53641

Lizard man dead :smug:

Attachment 53642

Level three! :omgomg:

Attachment 53646

At some point the above occurs in the middle of resting. My first thought was that I had DIED IN MY SLEEP http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a1...ps429d7327.gif but it turns out I was just having some sort of vision or something? Dead Chick, please.

After my dream, I continue exploring. I round a corner and...

Attachment 53648

I'VE GOT PILES

Attachment 53649

LOADS OF MONEY

Attachment 53650

SORRY MATE, I DON'T TAKE CHECKS. JUST LOADS OF GEAR!

Attachment 53652

Level four! :monocle:

Attachment 53667

Oh HO! What is THIS? Is it... can it be...

Attachment 53668

...OLDSCHOOL ANTI-PIRACY CHECKS!

Fortunately I looked up the price on UESP and away I went! Outside of the dungeon, and into the daylight...

Attachment 53669

...or not.

Attachment 53670

Seeing as there's a giant volcano in front of me, I'm guessing I'm somewhere in Morrowind. Llendys is home! :')

Attachment 53696

What is this? I've stumbled upon a town of some sort? :eek:

But everything appears to be closed! How dare these people go and... sleep! :argh:

I wander around for a while desperately trying to find an inn. And failing miserably.

Attachment 53697

I did find this pretty building! Alas, it, too, is closed. :whimper:

Attachment 53698

Oh, what's this?

"Sorry honey, I don't like dark elf boys much."

...bitch :colbert:

There are all manner of wolves, lizardmen, goblins, wizards, and so on wandering around the town at night like they own the place. On the upside they've dropped some phat lewt, and now I look like Aquaman.

Attachment 53699

For real.

I keep stumbling across these mysterious ladies, though. I wonder what THEY'RE doing out so late at night? They'd best go in before they run across a wizard, or worse, catch cold! http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a1...ps1e0d1059.png

Attachment 53700

How rude!

Eventually, though, one of them directs me to an inn, and I succeed in getting a good night's sleep on what appears to be a bed made out of solid concrete.

Attachment 53701

I wonder what adventures await me next!

I genuinely thought the town was underground for a second, the complete absence of any sort of skybox at night is simply darling :kaoclove:

I guess if the streets are crawling with all kinds of asshole monsters it does make sense to close for the night, though? Maybe they should pay their taxes so the city can pay the guards to patrol, or better yet institute social programs that prevent disadvantaged lizardmen and goblins turning to lives of crime in the first place.

"Dark Elf? Ew. Sorry, I only whore out to respectable clientelle that walk around at night. So, lizardmen, werewolves, goblins, that sort of thing."

I woke up the next morning, went outside, and was promptly greeted with the beautiful sight of... fog, because there is no skybox.

Attachment 53744

Next up it was time to ask around for jobs, because I want to go kill things! http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a1...ey/scholar.gif

Attachment 53745

Nope, nothin' at the church. Hi Preacher Man!

Attachment 53746

JUST LOOK AT THIS BEAUTIFUL VIEW. LOOK AT THAT HI-RES FOG. I guess it could be ashes from Red Mountain maybe

Attachment 53747

:eek: http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a1...ps1e0d1059.png

Attachment 53750

I dunno this sounds really complicated http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a1...ps1e0d1059.png Sundas is tomorrow, after all! But Llendys doesn't care because he's a DUNMER DAMNIT :argh: Brazenly he hits accept.

What long and perilous journey awaits us on our way to this Howling Ship?? :(

...

...not much of one, apparently, because the place he wants us to escort someone to is literally right next door.

Attachment 53763

Attachment 53764

Llendys's face upon taking his reward:

WELL, let's see about getting something a little more exciting, then, shall we?

Back outside we go.

Attachment 53765

:jokey:

Okay, enough of that. Back to the grindstone.

Attachment 53766

Look at this beefy guy :whoa: He's going to spend SEVEN FECKIN DAYS repairing my broadsword. Fortunately I'm rolling in dough :smug: allowing me to just buy a new one in the interim.

NOW LET'S GO DUNGEON DIVING OR SOMETHING :mwahaha:

Attachment 53767

OKAY GUYS THIS IS IT, THIS TIME IT'S GONNA HAPPEN

Attachment 53768

The Mages Guild. Okay. Got it.

...this is gonna be right next door again, isn't it?

...

Attachment 53774

Attachment 53769

Attachment 53778

...

:stare:

And he has the NERVE to be in a building that is clearly marked for Azura, covered with moon and stars! :irked:

Next time there had better be some bloody dungeons to roam! :colbert:

Is there such a thing as a sky and clouds in Morrowind?

There are in some locations! Such as the Grazelands. It's really pretty there!

I decided that maybe it's time to look into the Main Quest. Dead Chick said I had to find Fang Lair, didn't she? I snagged someone and asked where that was.

Attachment 53786

H... Hammerfell? But... but I'm in Morrowind! That's on the other side of the continent! :onoes:

Attachment 53787

LOOK AT THIS trout

...fortunately fast travel exists! :holmes:

NEXT STOP: HAMMERFELL

Attachment 53788

Where the men are men!

Attachment 53789

And the women are, uh... huh.

Attachment 53790

They just walk around like this. I'm not even kidding. I don't think there's a single fully-clothed woman in this town.

Attachment 53791

WAIT! WAIT I'VE FOUND ONE!

She's the queen and I don't even think she's a proper Redguard :colbert: (if she was, she wouldn't be wearing anything, clearly :doublecolbert:) Breton National Party please go.

Attachment 53792

Attachment 53793

:blahblah: TLDR, she wants me to go find a parchment before she tells me where Fang's Lair is.

Llendys' official response:

http://25.media.tumblr.com/cae23f526...hy9ro3_250.gif

DUNGEON TIME! :kakapo:

Attachment 53794

FULL GRIMDARK (as an aside you guys aren't getting the full effect of this dungeon because it's filled with spooky zombie noises and mysterious opening doors and trout)

Attachment 53795

I AM THE KING OF THE RATS

Attachment 53796

I AM THE KING OF EXPERIENCE

Attachment 53797

Llendys wanders around aimlessly for a while bashing things in before finding a key! :eek:

Attachment 53798

Into the door where we always pay our debts.

Unfortunately there doesn't appear to be much behind the door, so after some more wandering around I head back to town to repair and buy more potions.

Attachment 53799

Thanks WizardBro! :monkey:

Back into the dungeon. At some point Llendys hits level seven, which is pretty good.

Attachment 53800

He battles a variety of things including some skeletons (who are a pain in the arse), zombie ghoul monsters (who are an even bigger pain in the arse and actually do me in a couple of times), and finally...

Is that... :eek:

Attachment 53801

Got myself a parchment! :smug:

Attachment 53802

Back to the Breton imposter.

Attachment 53803

Fang Lair is way up in the corner of this province. Fortunately, we still have fast travel. Thank Azura! :shobon:

I'm gonna go head up to that town up there and then call it good for now...

Attachment 53804

Run over by a carriage. :(

PET THE SNAKE

PET THE SNAKE!

Attachment 53937

:eek: !

What horrors could possibly await us inside! (It's a Dwemer ruin apparently but it looks nothing like one :shobon: )

...

Attachment 53938

SKELETONS!

Attachment 53939

LEVEL EIGHT!

Attachment 53940

MORE SKELETONS!!

I scoured the entire first floor of this dungeon and found a buttload of skeletons and some loot (which conveniently respawns when you exit and re-enter the dungeon :holmes: ) There are mine shafts which head deep underground, but I haven't explored those yet! Perhaps that should be my next plan of action, however. :plotting:

I GREET MY SKELETAL BRETHREN!
