Description This... I'm not even sure what it is. Other than a silly idea that wouldn't leave me alone until I went and drew it. What I should have done, was to write a course assignment I must leave in tomorrow. Get out of my head just for few days, Skyrim, or I will fail these courses!

So, sometimes I wonder whether every guard in Skyrim has multiple personalities or something. I walk past one and he says he respects me for using my both gods given hands for my weapon. Then I come back a minute later and the same fellow goes: "Hands to yourself, sneak thief! You're not fooling anyone, you Thieves Guild scum." Talk about awkward transitions - it just never gets old.
Oh, and Markarth... Seriously, I still get lost in there every time I visit. Those dwemer might have been aces at inventing stuff but their cities just make no sense at all.
When it comes to arrows and knees this is probably my favorite video reference so far [link]

I like to imagine that all of the guards in skyrim are in on the joke of repeating phrases over and over, just for the reaction of skyrim noobies.

Speaking of Markarth, when you play a female character and get jailed in Cidna Mine doing The Forsworn Conspiracy, why are you the only girl there other than the Orc woman who just oversees the place? It's almost like I'm gonna get pounced on...But I beat up Borkul the Beast and everyone stays away! XD

I loved in Oblivion how the guards could give you directions and help you in quests, when they weren't calling you a criminal scum.

I think this was the funniest Skyrim strip you did!!!! Absolutely love it!! Love it as much as I hate Markarth...it really is an awful place...almost as bad Winterhold and Windhelm...ESPECIALLY Windhelm...god that place depresses the shit out of me...and Markarth just pisses me off... I always avoid it like the plague!

Seriously, if they're not telling you to stop that Shouting, getting in the way of dragon battles or going on about their marriage...guards...ugh. Bethesda had too much fun with them this time round.

Not sayin' they ain't enjoyable! XD XD XD

At least the guards in Oblivion were good for directions. These guards are pure uselessness...outside of pickpocketing all their stuff, of course.

this reminds me of one time, after i killed the dragon close to whiterun. i was sprinting as fast as i can to find the jarl to tell him about what happened. i sprinted past this guard and he just called out "no lollygagging" i stopped in my place after hearing that and was really tempted to beat his head in with my sword. but i decided not to and walked on. i was kinda pissed at him when i passed by another guard who said "let me guess, someone stole your sweet roll?" and i "FUS'd" him out of the way -true story

GwDuncan [2014-10-04 10:32:28 +0000 UTC]

That is because all the guards are inbreeds, there used to be only 2 guards at first, and then a secret pact made between the guards about Guards are only allowed to mate with guards where made, and only those born of a guard could be a guard...........might aswell be true since they are all idiots
