How did you die the first time on Morrowind?

I accidentally stole something from a shop in Balmora and before I knew it the shopkeeper had blocked my way and summoned some bright creature thing that killed me in no time flat.

A uhh...mmm...well...a small slaughterfish. It was my first time ever playing a TES game (I know....i should have heard about it long ago). I wasnt sure of the mechanics of the game. Started swimming around, and went into the water in seyda neen, and little fishy killed me. I was trying to use the iron dagger from the table in the second room. Short blade wasnt in my major or minor skills and i was an argonian. Yea...

Died the same exact way the second time.

thats funny, cause I did end up killing Sotthilde, after my pickpocket failed, followed by running really fast away.

wait, that may have been something else cause it was the building across the river from the thieves guild in Balmora.

I died in a similar fashion twice too... that smuggles cave, I killed the crazy lady witht he knfe, but the fireball mage got me. Second time I'd levelled a bit, killed the mage, and then a barbarian and some others I think, but then a mage with a poisen spell got me... memory vague, might not be spot on.

I think a real funny way to die would be having that falling wizard landing on you, but I dont know if thats really possible... first he'd probabaly just land on your head and walk off, and you'd have to get under him in time.

It's possible to get under him in time... What's funny is that I checked and the CS and he has dialogue options if he survives, . Someone should try to cast slowfall on him.

Well, Kwama Forager near Seyda Neen...

I had forgotten how to draw my marvellous dagger, so it beat me to death without any resistance from my side...

Addmasartus (Cave near Seyda Neen), I didnt know you needed to have a skill level to hit people with a weapon.

Xanthyd · Post by **Xanthyd** » Wed Mar 01, 2006 2:05 am

Hmm... I don't really remember what first killed me, but I'm pretty sure it was a scroll of Icarian Flight. I see that that accursed thing killed many of you as well when you were new to the game...

Must've been some evil programmer from Bethesda's n00b killer.

Yah ummmm one of em Kwama snail things, got paralyzed looking right at it so I watched it jump at my poor dark elf to death. yah its shame but then you go free.

OK, now I remember the time...
I took the Silver Staff in Arlie's Tradehouse. To remind you, there's 2 mages, one Axe-weilder, two H2Hs, and one Thief in that place. Yeah, it hurt.

I usually don't get hurt. By anything. You see, I am a Major in Marksmanship and I usually have a good supply of arrows with me. In case that fails or I run out of arrows, I've lately taken to carrying the Sword of White Woe with me. So far, playing at 100 dif, I ahven't been mauled too many times. ^_^

I managed to get the mage on my first try in 2 out of the 5 games I played, none of them completed. I love that bow. The Astronach sign helps too.

I'm still thinking of a useful use for those scrolls...

I don't quite remember if it was the first one, but the one I rememeber was the one in the place where I needed to kill that Dagoth dude near that big rock, which was turnt into a statue later. I was usually holding 50 health potions and so... And usually when I was starting to die, the game crashed.

First death was in balmora, on my friends character at lvl 30. i ran up a bounty of about 60000 and turned off the monitor on accident. still dont know why it took so long to come back on, but you die quickly when swarmed by guards, spamming attack, and probably facing the wrong way.

by the way, best place to train acrobatics is the steps in front of vivecs palace. just make sure you have some health with you.

I think my first time was when I experimented what would happen if I punched a Census & Excise guard in the face.

By a dunmer in the cave near Seyda Neen

The 3 telvanni agents in the cave near Caldera Mines, the fighters guild quest. I was an orc warrior and used the berserk power. Every time I would beat them all and die mysteriously a couple of seconds later. I couldn't figure out why.

Fortify health spell of doom..

ENIGMA* · Post by ENIGMA* » Sun Mar 12, 2006 4:20 pm

thats the problem, Fortify only extends temporarily, Retore does it permenantly

This is kinda embarassing. When I first got Morrowind I had been up all night and very eager to play it anyway, so after the installation, I sat down at the controls, generated my charachter, and headed out from Seyda Neen after finishing my duties there. At this point, I fell asleep running south bound.

When I awoke, I was laying dead in a puddle in the middle of a swamp between Seyda Neen and Vivec. At about this time, sleep that wasn't in-game seemed like a good idea.

ENIGMA* · Post by ENIGMA* » Mon Mar 13, 2006 2:44 am

i did that wen i played my new copy of Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes. I fell asleep several time and (thank Azua) woke up right before a guard spotted me...

Sturmer · Post by **Sturmer** » Wed Mar 15, 2006 2:20 am

My first death was when I was mobbed by cliffracers.

My most embarassing death was when my lv. 5 Nord Warrior was killed by a rat. PM me if you want details.

I've spoken to that Incarian guy. When you talk to him all he says is, "I don't wan't to talk about it."

After a really bad moon-sugar trip I decided to get even higher, by casting levitate. Ran out of magika a mile above Gnisis.............Splat. Khajit don't always land on their feet.

May you live in intresting times.
