[edit] Inspired by 4chan?

My first impression when I met this guy was that he reminded me of the avatars that regulars of 4chan's /b/ imageboard use when they do their infamous "Pool's Closed" raids on Habbo Hotel. Is this just me, or did anyone else get that vibe as well? It's not like 4chan's /b/ has an exclusive trademark on well-dressed with Afro, so it's probably just coincidence, but still.

I think you've been on the internet way to long, also the makers of morrowind wouldn't take a chance on something like habbo, which "nigra" is derive from a actually very racist backstory.

{long story short they couldn't say "nigger" on habbo do to it being filtered, so they changed it to "nigra" its essentially supposed to mean the same thing. You really think Microsoft would let something volatile like that into one of there games? You're insane.}

[edit] Essential

Isn't Shelden flagged Essential?--LordDagon 10:36, 3 February 2008 (EST)

Yes. Good spot. In fact there's more than one SI NPC that doesn't have this set. Shelden seems to be an odd case. There are cases where he suffers a scripted death but he never seems to lose that essential flag. –Rpeh^{•T•C•E•} 12:03, 3 February 2008 (EST)

[edit] Trapped in Xeddefen?

I had shelden follow me before I fought the knights and disabled the obelisk (wanted to see him fight with an order sword) but he was trapped by a gate. I had to leave him behind! 203.91.84.7 23:19, 4 June 2008 (EDT)

He shoudl appear outside the building when you exit it, and if he doesn't he will also appear back in the non-ordered Passwall at the end of the SI Main Quest. So he's probably around there somewhere. You could always use the console to find him or to move him to you. 86.44.221.166 16:23, 3 June 2009 (EDT)

[edit] Escorting out of Xeddefen

If you escort him out of Xeddefen, he will still repeat like a parrot, "Can we get out of here?", even though he's already back in Passwall. He won't even follow you to Passwall, as soon as he is out of Xeddefen, he will go there alone, but he will still say the same to the player. That's because the game doesn't check Shelden's whereabouts, it checks if you've overloaded the obelisk, and as long as you haven't he will always repeat the same nonsense.
