I just read in another thread Arija (or something similar) from Balmora Mages Guild refered to as 'the Cat thing' which made me laugh a huge amount, so I thought I'd ask, is there anything else weird about Morrowind that you could report in a humerous style?

I know that its weird for me that even if I sneak up right behind somebody and stab them in the back of the head with a dagger, they'll survive, but if I poke them in the foot with by DDK they die. Also the idea that you can enable invisibilty, and be standing right behind somebody who doesn't know you're there, and taking all the time in the world you can try to stab them with a dagger... and miss.

Also there is the inn in the Telvanni section of Balmora called 'The Lizard's Head' inside it you can find the head of an Arognian mounted on a plaque. This gave me bad dreams the first time I found it, since I was playing as one!

Share your weird experiances.

I'm also curious as to how rude NPC's can get. Narcalaya of White Haven once muttered something about 'rude outlanders flooding the streets of our town' when I had a blight disease and was going for a potion. I think she's been reading too much of the Daily Mail. How rude has an NPC been to you?

so rude he fought me.
needless to say who the victor was.

Fine Ill tell you.....him.

The worst part of the game and the weirdest I think would be the abomination that is known as a cliff racer. Some Japanese fellow is sitting behind a desk, wiping his ass with hundred dollar bills just because he invented that stupid winged dinosaur piece of ****. Im on my way to the Daedric Ruins outside Khuul and a group of 3 Dunmer who like sitting next to fires and killing what ever walks on two legs and is able to speak, jumps me. Well at lvl 24, they're not much of a challenge. So im bashing this guy's head while one of his buddy's is shooting Arrows at me and the other launching spells that just hit his teammate, and along comes these 2 Cliff Racers. And by some HOLY MIRACLE, they decide in their puny little brains

Cliff racer #1: "Hey, Wally the Wonder bird look at this!"

Wonder Bird: "Hahaha that poor stupid dunmer is being jumped"

Cliff racer#1: "Yeah it looks like it... LETS GET HIM!!"

So they come out of nowhere and start pecking me in the noggin. I decide that the Bipedals are more of a threat, so I take out the Melee guy first and then proceed to take out the Archer and Mage. I swing around and start stabbing the hell out of the two flying Roosters. Then, like the movie "Birds!" A whole god damn flock of (I do not exaggerate) 6 Cliff Racers come to the rescue of Wally and #1. I pull out my sword that has 50 to 50 in 40 Feet Fire Damage and take out the flock in a few slashes. At the end of the day, I must of been covered in feathers.. They should invent the Barbeque Option once you kill one of them things instead of dispose corpse..

This is a good thread... I actually wanted to post a similar thread about weird comments from npc's, but they fit just as well in here.

It seems to me that in addition to the normal comments like "go ahead outlander" and "you're nearly a legend around here" (That's what I get at least... ), sometimes you hear crazy things like "I wonder if he got his breakfast this morning" and similar stuff. I heard some really weird ones earlier today in Sadrith Mora; it made me wonder if the whole town had gone mad...

I'll make a note of them from now on to be posted here!

similar to 'favorite npc comments'?

I mentioned in that thread...... Someone said, "I don't remember using telportation, but there I was; naked and alone."

I saw another weird one today, but have forgotten.......

I'll take note.

lol! The other night while trying out a new character I was in the Balmora mage's guild and the one somewhat snooty high elf (can't recall her name), said something like, "I really like those blue plates, but the brown ones just seem to last so much longer."

I'm not sure why, but at the time time this struck me as extremely funny !

"I really like those blue plates, but the brown ones just seem to last so much longer."

I remember that! I've gotten that a few times too... The funny thing is, & I don't know how many people in these forums know their woodstock trivia, but at woodstock in '67(?) there were two main kinds of LSD that were being sold to festival goers; a brown kind and a blue kind. The thing was that the brown kind was a bad batch, so bad in fact that festival promoters had to go on stage with public announcements telling people to "not eat the brown acid. Eat the blue acid instead!"
It has kind of become a famous sentence, so as soon as I heard that comment for the first time I immediately assumed one of the designers had been to woodstock or something...

I walk around Balmora and people are always mumbling about "disgusting creature" or a common one, "where is that slave?"

I here comments about other NPCs, for example:

"If I worked out I'd have a body like that."

though the best one (heard in mournhold)

"If she had teeth, she'd be a dog!"

I think this is going back to a similar thread about amusing quotes but...nyeuh.

ROFLMAO!!! Suddenly it all makes complete sense, it is right up there with the "moon sugar"! I knew about that bit of trivia, but my memory is crap so it had slipped my mind. Actually, most of the RPGs I have played seem to suggest the developers have an especially twisted sense of humour...

As a result of the brown LSD?

LMAO! Well I was born in the Fall of 67.... though my mother never really struck me as the sort to hang out at Woodstock gatherings!

More than likely this is the result of getting older.... I hate to think about how much worse it could become

personally my favorite is when the ordinators say something to you.

"Were watching you.....scum.

I laugh everytime I hear that!

Tavern.....

One of the good ones I used to get before my personality (?) went up....

"I suppose you're looking for a tavern. I'm sure I can't help you."

I love it when it's said in that husky dunmer voice that sounds like Bea Arthur trying to talk while holding in a bong-hit.
