People keep saying that Wyndelius was touched by Sheogorath, but I think it's clearly possession. The last entry is dated to the first era, and he acts as if he was a spirit there for a while. Sheogorath is an easy cop-out for anything madness related, but really possession makes more sense.

I always thought of it as possession myself, he's living in a crypt....with the living dead and lots of super powerful living dead. I mean greater draugr, and Dragon priests its not hard to see how he could be possessed.

One thing I will give Skyrim's writing over Morrowind's: the random ass bandit dens you run across typically have a lot more interesting and fleshed out side-stories in them in Skyrim. I can remember quite a few weirdoes I raided like I was the Nordic equivalent of the FBI, meanwhile I barely remember most of Morrowind's common bandits despite all of them being uniquely named. Just goes to show you what a few diegetic notes can do for environmental storytelling.

Sorry for a third comment, but Wilhelm is a deeper character than I think you realize. He's vowed to 'protect' Lynley, which is interesting. He buys his mead illegally, and most interestingly, during Narfi's quest to find his sister, if you go to Wilhelm first, he gives out Narfi's lines verbatim, in a crazy begger voice. It's incredibly unsettling and the stuff of nightmares. Camelworks detailed this all in a 4-hour video on Narfi and Reyda's quest. In it he outlines a detailed conspiracy where all of these details intermingle and eventually lead to the conclusion that Wilhelm put the DB hit out on Narfi and Reyda.

When it comes to Bashnags unusually potent silent spell, that could potentially come from him being a devotee of Malacath. Curses are part of Malacath portfolio and when it comes to most Orcs on Tamriel, the deities they worship is usually either Trinimac or Malacath/Mauloch. So Bashnag following the latter seems likely and I could total see Malacath enhancing the more curse like effects of spells like burden, silence, drain attribute effects, etc that last for weeks, months, or even years would fit a boon that Malacath might give to his most faithful followers. Honestly think something similar is happening with Molag Bal and Sild the Warlock to. Torturing people, then killing them, capturing souls, and using thier enslaved, tortured souls as your foot soldiers? Yeah that's some Molag Bal worshiper type shit right there.

Looking at the location, the fact that there is a full on road, and the fact that it's called "sanctum", it might well be an old sacred site to Malacath. And it was no issue making spells and poisons that last for weeks in Morrowind. So from a gameplay perspective it is possible. Expanding that to lore is not a big task, especially since there is nothing in lore speaking against long lasting spells.

I think wyndelius succumbed to the same sort of mind control that affects the Draugr. Draugr are only ‘technically’ undead, having never actually died bodily, though they are dead mentally. If you entered a draugr tomb shortly after it’s construction, you’d find them to be whole & hale, but just as mindless. I think wyndelius is halfway to being that. The draugr gave up their lives for their dragon priest lords, & lend them their life force. You can get white souls from soul trapping them, meaning they no longer have fully human black souls, probably having given up too much of it. Whatever dragon priest is connected to shrouded hearth probably dominated wyndelius or, being in one of those tombs makes you a draugr over time

I'm starting to think that Wilhelm is one of the best written npcs, because he's so - realistic. Has that smirk all the time and is related to so many subtle, weird situations. So if he's truly shady, it's so subtle and deep, almost too much for a mere game character.

there's a very realistic inconclusiveness to him, it's not very cinematic, but he gives the vibe of someone who just keeps cropping up in relation to an unsolved case or something, but has no evidence that he did anything wrong or anything or maybe he's just a well-connected but slightly shady innkeeper or maybe Bethesda just needed questgivers and endpoints for a few different minor quests in the rift and there weren't that many people in ivarstead who made any sense, but i like the idea that the vibes he gave out were deliberate

When you initiate find reyda remain after talking to Narfi, you can ask wilhem about narfi, the caviat is that he put an expression of Pity when she talks about Reyda, as if he was trying to look innocent when talking to the player. And then... Wilhem says where Reyda would occasionally go and look for ingredient ( suspicious 1) after that he says "One day she 'just' vanished" ( suspicious 2 ) and he mention to the player that he tries to look for her but she never showed up. Suspicious 1 : Wilhem know reyda activity where she would go and when she would return home Suspicious 2 : wilhem was 100% sure that reyda was gone and that indicate that wilhem has something to do with Reyda, he doesnt speculate what happen to reyda, he just says he is pretty sure she's dead. implying that he could've been the one that murder her. Another weird part about Wilhem is that he kept Lylnly Star-sung as Barmaid despite her awful singing and clumsy attitude, my guesses is that he has thirst for beautiful women. When staying at the Inn you would hear his dialogue with Lynly.. "I swore i would protect you" showing the player his Hidden manipulative tactic to win over her trust and comfort. Conclusion : Wilhem definitely has something todo with reyda, it could've been that he was in thirst with reyda, and that reyda was smart independent and could resist Wilhem manipulative tactics, and when wilhem confront reyda at the bridge during night, wilhem is frustrated and angry at Reyda for refusing him and strangled her to death, throwing her body to the river. overall he is one shady inkeeper

You know, I plan to run a Pathfinder campaign set in TESV Skyrim at some point. I came across a mod titled "Death consumes all", which I thought would make an interesting adventure hook and thought to somehow incorporate at least the concept of the mod in my Game. Then I found a short Pathfinder adventure, I think it was included in "The Book of the Dead", where the Players stumble into a Village in the Mountains, cut off from the rest of the world, and almost destroyed by undead, and thought, that'd make a nice introduction to the plotline introduced in the mod. I knew about the Redguard Woman trying to bring her husband back from the dead, but I didn't really have it on the Screen to maybe incorporate it into my game. So thank you very much for reminding me of this little story, so I may include it in that plotline.

suggestion on a character.. The NPC with most dialogue lines : Mjoll the Lioness. She is the Hero of Riften, stands up even against Maven Blackbriar, calling her a heartless bitch. Not afraid of anyone, and when she is your follower, give her a set of heavy armour and Volendrung. When you do the Stormcloak or Emperial quest, take her to clear out a fort..she will turn in to a one woman army, clearing it on her own, just follow her and hear her one liners.. Give her two stafs and she will doublewield them untill they are empty, then switch to her dominant weapon

Maybe that orc belonged to another Organisation, that's wanted by the Thalmor. Could also be, that he fought in the first great war on the side of the imperials and somehow caught the eye of the Thalmor, or came into contact with them another way, that didn't end with friendly relations. Or maybe he was something like a spy in service of the Thalmor, and has gone rogue, and therefore fears retribution. There are a lot of reasons, why he could be afraid to get found by the Thalmor specifically.

My Wyndelius theory is that the magic used by the ancient Nords that allows the Draugr to rise up and defend their tombs got to him from prolonged exposure. Did his potion make him more vulnerable? Potentially, but since so few people choose to stay in one for so long it might not have done anything at all.

Most of the time we wonder if its cut content, it more than likely is. The whispering door was meant to be longer than it was but time waits for noone and they were behind so, it shortened to what it is now. I wouldve loved another "Where is my child" sitch. Plus what if she saw her child happy and decided to let her stay instead of kidnap?We could use persuasion to get the adoptive parents to allow their daughter time with her bio mom. Not like a custody thing exactly but visitation (especially since she doesnt have her own place yet).

This world is heavy with dark fantasy and I adore it for those moments. My favorite bandit is Arvel, another crazed archeologist/scholar in search of ancient eldritch power before being consumed by the dark of the ruin by Draugur. If you wait and the follow slowly his body is sprawled over a puddle of blood from where he fell. There was no scream, no cry for help, you follow after him ,and he lies dead. Nothing moves until you startle the silent guardians again, who deal death to trespassers. Wyndelius Gatharian was someone looking for the trove of dead warriors and fabled jarls. When he could not ascertain the claw, his obsessions of grandeur turned to madness. This is when the keeper of fear and living concept of the nightmare arrives. Vaermina tore a rend in his mind as she fed off the delusion he suffered from. This was a mortal ripe for eternal doubt and pain. A hero or maybe a villain of some proportion arrived and slaughtered the crazed fiend. He was a stranger lost in a hell he imprisoned himself within before being cut down. A strangled soul released of torment, Stendarr have mercy. There are things that stir the minds of people in Skyrim in such a way that you begin to imagine events differently because of fear and respect for how small the player is in comparison to the influences we cannot see. You think in a more occult sense that there is more than simple mental degradation but forces of physical proportion that influence and control mortals like puppets through breathing concepts. The player is susceptible to such tampering with the promise of power. - The Rueful Axe as reward for butchering a dog - The Nightingale Blade for allegiance to the permanent vigil of the night and the insanity of eternal servitude - Beating a priest bloody with a serrated mace, into submitting to the god of rape for a powerful vampiric cudgel This world is beautiful and haunting for what it does not tell you and does not care if you miss. It's very weird and very dark fiction. It's in introspection to speculative lore that makes these dives so fun.

I had a dumb little idea, imagine if there was a little quest to recruit Bashnag and his Sellswords to the side of the Stormcloaks? He seems particularly wary of the Thalmor, and he's right next to an Imperial fort. I imagine how it would go down is, as an optional preliminary quest to sieging and capturing the nearby fort in the name of the Stormcloaks, you could be sent as an envoy to Bashnag, and request his and his Spellswords' aid in taking control of the fort, under the condition that the fort will be put under his command once it is taken. I'm thinking once he takes control, he could be given a Stormcloak Officer hat, and you'd see both Spellswords and a few Stormcloak soldiers patrolling it.

Add to that that you seem to really enjoy making these videos while going through a nasty illness. I wish you the very best.

Thanks so much! I'm working on another Skyrim video at the moment and really needed some extra morale boost :)

​@@boreanknightI have a suggestion, for if you're still collecting footage for your next projects. The Photo Mode mod available on Nexus, while built for taking screenshots, can also be used for recording footage with different FOV, DOF, even actor expression and animation settings. The latter is difficult to manage, but it's great for the easy FOV manipulation alone. Just in case you haven't tried it/been using it.

@@TheR6R6R Sorry for late reply. My current wabbajack modlist Elysium has no photo mode so I rely on console commands. I can try adding it for future.

I was suspicious of Wilhelm also but his kindly old man demeanour fooled me....just like it fooled poor Wyndelius...Wilheim knew what he was doing and the idea that he fooled folk with his act probably added to his delight

I always got the impression that Wyndelius was being corrupted/possessed by the draugr spirits within the tomb, possibly addled by drinking too many potions with suspect ingredients.

So, I can't help but wonder if Wyndelious had received any help from Reyda or Narfi in collecting alchemical ingredients. It almosta makes sense, but I'm not sure.

If anyone followed the main quest and way to High Horathgar the proper way, you are likely to meet Wyndelius in your first play through.

There's a lot of life missing in the world of Skyrim. Less NPCs makes for easier storytelling with more in depth stories, but the world feels far less lived in. One of my favorite things about Oblivion and Morrowind is the amount of NPCs makes the world feel real and *lived in*. I mean, even the so called Capital of Skyrim is so small and empty for the, ya know, capital city of a whole ass country. Whereas the capital cities in Morrowind and Oblivion are massive and have numerous NPCs going about daily routines. My point is that the last bandit, Sild the Warlock, really highlights this with his diary entries about a fairly steady flow of adventurers, plunderers and bandits making their way into his ruin.

We can't even recreate Wyndelius' potion that makes him look like a spirit and his recipe isn't written down anywhere, so we don't know what's in it. There are plenty of drugs in the real world that can do this, especially when you've been taking them for prolonged periods of time and a potion can be interpreted as a drug. There are algae that can create a glowing effect and can also addle ones brain. The other thing that could be is that he played the role of guardian spirit so much and so often that he began to believe he was one. Either way, he's clearly someone for Sheogorath to pick up and place in Bliss.

I think Wyndelius' potion had some unintended side effects where it eroded his memory the more he used it. Making yourself appear ethereal cannot be good for the body.

It makes me wonder if the dark elf went crazy because of the potion he took, the burrow had some weird magic from the barrow or if he really went crazy from not finding the claw.
