[edit] Dark Brotherhood Assassin

Why is it that no one is discussing the fact that the target seems to be an assassin for the Dark Brotherhood himself? In the locked barrel in the corner of the downstairs room you will find a full set of Dark Brotherhood clothing and a copy of the five tenents. He is also reading an assassins book in his training room. What's the link?

When you confont him and say that "...Sithis sent you..." he dosen't say anything noteworthy like - "oh yeah Sithis and I are good buddies too." ^{—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Yitido (talk • contribs).}

Well, assuming you follow the quest line through to the end, you'll discover after killing the guy in Bravil that someone has been giving you false orders, and everyone you take out after the Draconis family members are all Speakers and Silencers of the Black Hand. This sets up the following quest. That's probably why they aren't discussing it. Quillan^Talk 22:23, 21 July 2006 (EDT)

[edit] Spoilers

I removed the spoilers. They add nothing to the article and it kind of defeats the purpose of the plot twist... 68.166.64.77 16:20, 6 February 2008 (EST)

Actually, the spoilers are there for when people do the quest before reading the walkthrough, and get confused because they find evidence to suggest that J'Ghasta is a member of the Dark Brotherhood. And anyway, the 'plot twist' isn't really all that unexpected, if you've been paying attention during the quest line (in my opinion). --Gaebrial 06:36, 7 February 2008 (EST)

That makes no sense. If they're confused it will all be made clear at the conclusion of the quest line. It seems clear to me it was meant to cause a little confusion. And it doesn't matter how good or unexpected the twist is, it's a twist, put there for the sake of the story and there's no reason to spoil it ahead of time. I'm removing it again. 68.166.66.230 15:38, 12 February 2008 (EST)

I agree. This really isn't something that people should be warned about before the plot unfolds. I don't see anything wrong with allowing players to draw their own conclusions about where the story might be headed. Having the information on J'Ghasta's page should be sufficient. --Eshe^talk17:09, 12 February 2008 (EST)

[edit] Dead Drop Locations

I know they are a bit out of the way, but still a nifty place to hide certain items. Anyone know if these locations are safe to store items in? I wouldnt imagine that they respawn or that NPCs would ever get in them... ^{—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 209.134.75.234 (talk • contribs).}

They're all safe, yes. After all it wouldn't be very helpful if you couldn't pick up your orders because the container had respawned. –Rpeh^{•T•C•E•} 06:25, 16 May 2008 (EDT)

[edit] Black Hand Robe and Hood

You can find these in the locked keg on the bottom floor. What I wanted to know if it was possible to make them "unstolen". I know with items that have a sell price other than 0 you can sell them to a fence and then buy them back effectively making them "unstolen" for a fee. The problem with the Black Hand Robe and Hood is that their sell price is 0 so if you give them away to the fence they don't appear in their inventory. Does anyone know how to solve this / is it possible?--BigRussian 14:21, 13 July 2008 (EDT)
