What if, when Oblivion comes out, you killed on guy, then cover his body with arrows, then revive him. Would he be a walking mass of arrows?

ROFLMAO! that would be so funny. I'm really curious if that is possible... I mean, now htat y6ou meantion it it sounds possible from what we've heard but I don't know.... another thing to do when i get the game....

Possibly... but It'd make sense... given he'd be a zombie.

You might end up with someone who looks like this

That's a shot of a PC from the (rather excellent) shareware game Mount&Blade. The player enabled a cheat so that he couldn't be killed. He's all red from the blood splashes that are painted on when you take a hit... I think he must have taken a few

Maybe the arrow would just break off when they stand up, but I really hope we can give people arrow mohawks and watch them walking around dazed.
Do NPCs revive as zombies or as pale humans? I really want an army of zombies!!!
I think it only lasts for a spell duration anyway...

That woujld be cool but the arrows might break off after a while. Knowing bethesda(or video games in general) the arrows will probably disappear when the npc is revived. However considering all the surprises I have recieved concerning Oblivion I probably would not be surprised if the arrows did not disappear automatically.

Who knows. So many possiblities.
