Wow, this is a hard one, mALX! Hmm, wooden bridge. Upper left corner gives hint of a wooden structure on the far side. The terrain doesn't quite seem to fit, but the entrance area to Bravil is the only place that comes to mind. Low confidence here, but that is my guess.

I think you've used that one before, and actually think I was the one who got it last time too; laugh.gif


Okay, where is Maxical?

You might want to try another one. The name of this place in displayed in notes at the top and bottom of the shot. wink.gif

Those imgur links sometimes show you just the image, and sometimes it's embedded in a web page. I've never figured out what makes the difference, as the same link will work one way, then I restart the browser, and it switches. Which means you have no control, of course. ohmy.gif

Photobucket does that too, it really ticks me off when you try to link directly and it does that. But Imgur screens are too big to implant; the Photobucket ones are small enough that I can embed them and the page never show. Sorry, if anyone has seen the answer. verysad.gif

It isn't showing that when I click on it; I think Imgur does that so they can advertise themselves, it really makes me mad when they do that! Just use the info to win it, I don't have another screen for this thread right now. sad.gif Sorry about that.


Acadian
Aww, sorry, mALX. And it is a great screenie too. kvleft.gif

Since you and I have just passed the cake between us, let's open the thread up to anyone who has a screenshot ready.

Cake for grabs! cake.gif

The imgur links that start with www.i.imgur.com are supposed to be direct links. But the first time you click on them they don't go directly to the picture. Instead they go to the imgur page with the pic in it. The second time you click on it, the pic will come up full screen all by itself. But that only works for a few days. After that imgur forgets that you have viewed it (I cookie I imagine), and starts all over again. It didn't used to be that way. I started using Imgur precisely because it would go directly to the picture. But they changed it to give themselves more advertising. I think they want to be more of a social media site, rather than simply a file hosting one.

The links without that extra i at the start always go to the imgur page.

Where Is The Worst Ear-Piercing Salon In Tamriel?



The Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary? Final Answer!



ghastley
I have to agree that the DB Sanctuary is a good answer to the question, but it's not where the screen shot was taken.

I believe the DB would have tried to pierce both ears at once. ohmy.gif

Is it too big a hint to ask if that is a generic or named NPC? laugh.gif



ghastley
Generic, so no help at all. None of the NPC's there is named, and even the named boss isn't entirely there. (Which might be enough hint for some.)

Okay, thanks!


*mALX slinks away*


Lopov
Fort Snowhawk?
ghastley
No, Fort Snowhawk has an unnamed necromancer boss, but this place has a named one who isn't exactly there.

Incidentally, I haven't checked with the CK, but the picture on UESP of this location shows the female necromancer with the same hair, so she may be placed, rather than spawned from a generic template.

And ... you may just have eliminated the only other fort that contains necromancers. tongue.gif

Huh, obviously I missed this hint before. huh.gif

Now my answer is Ilinalta's Deep, the necromancer boss is there but actually not there.
ghastley
And this time you're right. There's a picture at the UESP wiki of the same room, and she looks like she has the same hair.

cake.gif for Lopov.

Where is Manuin?

Exact answer, please, not just the town.

He's sneaking in Riverview in Cheydinhal - either for a skill book or skooma, laugh.gif


Lopov
Indeed.

cake.gif goes to mALX.

WOO HOO! Thanks! Okay, Where is Maxical?

Where is Aravi?
mALX
QUOTE(SubRosa @ Jul 12 2016, 07:05 PM) *



Gaaaah, you shouldn't have given her name! I know where she is from because I helped KC research Aravi's history of his character; and had also come across her in choosing and researching who to use for Maxical's mother Shivani, urk.

So it is kind of cheating, because I would never have guessed it if you hadn't said the name, urgh. I'll wait and see if someone else comes up with it. If not, I'll give my cheating response based on insider info, laugh.gif


SubRosa
It's not cheating. If you know it, you know it.
mALX

But some may know it from actually playing Morrowind; and they may also have a screenshot to post - and not be having their central heat and air unit being replaced for the past 10 hours and still ongoing, laugh.gif

If no one has posted an answer by tomorrow, I'll post it. Give me time to recuperate from today.


Acadian
Okay. I've never played Morrowind but, as a fan of KC's Aravi who was a slave in Morrowind, I'll take a wild guess - Aharunartus? wink.gif
SubRosa
Aharunartus it is! The cake.gif goes to you sir!
Acadian
Thank you, milady!

Where is Buffy and her little clan?

Skyrim! Final Answer! tongue.gif

ghastley
I think that's Fort Snowhawk (with Solitude in the background, so she must be on the north side).

Acadian
Exactly right! I actually posed and took that shot with this thread in mind. I tried to include enough of Solitude in the background to help without overdoing it. Good analysis.

Over to you, ghastley! cake.gif
ghastley
There aren't usually two dragons here, just when the character is unlucky.

Where Am I?
mALX


Half Moon Mill?



Lopov
Is that the burned shack west of Helgen and south of the Ancient Ascent?
ghastley
No to both, and perhaps I should refine my comment. There aren't usually two dragons here. I.e there is usually only one.
mALX


If it is not too much of a hint; are those dragon bones there all the time, or did you just kill it?


ghastley
One of the dragons is normally there (alive) but when the character went to kill it, another came and joined in the fun. So we ended up with two dead dragons at the same place.

I've had the glitch where the skeleton of a dragon that's been killed will follow the player around when fast travelling. That's not what happened here. Shortly before this shot, they were both alive and a real problem!
Acadian
I'm pretty confident there is a dragon wall just to the left of the shot and I do remember at least one of the walls has a few shacks in the area. I'll be darned, though if I can remember which one. tongue.gif
