Guy: upgrades a dagger 10x over making it deal 900+ damage
Adrianne: Reminds me of when I first started smithing

[adc]

Nazeem really just watched a random dude kill someone in full ebony plate armour with two swings of an iron dagger and then went "yeah this seems like someone I should insult"

[davidwilson]

Dragonborn: _Crafts a dagger capable of killing anything in one swing._
Adrianne: Not bad. Reminds me when I first started smithing.

Everyone's talking about Nazeem and the court wizard nah bro, imagine being that hunter just minding ur own business when this half naked maniac comes out of nowhere attacks you, steals ur horse and then yeets himself 50 million feet away

[MatNightmare]

Imagine being the court wizard and this guy dressed in rags just waltzes in, pushes you aside from your alchemy table and starts brewing the sickest potions you've ever seen in your life, and then proceeds to drink them and brew new ones, repeating it for 5 minutes straight. And then he just turns around and leaves, doing some parkour over a table and jumping over the maid on his way out.

The Ebony Warrior is actually a title that is passed down to whoever slays the current holder of the title. The equipping of the armour and teabagging is part of the ritual

[chrisshoemate]

Jarl of Whiterun- "What do you mean the guy who was making potions for 6 minutes just became the strongest warrior in skyrim?"

[fredekkrainakredek]

This may be the most elaborate plot to kill Nazeem I've ever seen.

[eccentricjoe]

Imagine if he donated a potion of restoration to the temple of kynareth in whiterun, some novice would drink it and use healing hands on a sick guy/wounded soldier with 19373897452937% improved restoration and the dude just becomes god

[ijustworkhere]

Ebony warrior: “are you worthy to fight me?”
Dragonborn: “you cannot handle my potions, traveller. They’re too strong for you”

[mytomanen_bre]

Adrianne: Welcome, traveler. What can i get you?
Dragonborn: You wanna buy that leather helmet in your pocket for 141 gold?
Adrianne: You drive a hard bargin. I'm in.

[senorbones]

Skyrim, the only game where speedruns like that can be considered "glitchless"

[stealthyshadow]

“Wait you’re going to kill him with an iron dagger? That’ll take forev-“

[ICYWHITE]

Killing Nazem at the end was the cherry on top

[dionpierre]

Love that his first kill in the game is ebony warrior then followed by everyone else. That’s a power move

[alexanderbowlby]

Somebody go tell the Tribunal they don’t need the Heart of Lorkhan to become gods, just some cyrodiilic spadetails, salt, and a knife

[ByteMe]

when Ralof said “Jarl Ulfric, what is that thing?” he was talking about you.

[auspiciousapple]

Imagine being Arcadia and seeing this homeless guy run in, proceed to throw the entire treasury of Whiterun at you while yelling at you to train them in alchemy, then proceeding to smack you in the face multiple times with a blast of fire that changes every single item on your shelf before leaving

[MCBSMITH]

How bizzare it must be to be the ebony warrior training your whole life to face a great warrior...only to find out the most powerful man in all of Tamriel is some scraggly looking dude who has literally spent the last 15 minutes guzzling potions watch him craft a dagger that could cut a hole in the universe then kill you with said dagger. Skyrim is

Perk tree menu navigation is how Bethesda balanced speedrunning.
