Skyrim talk:Lord Harkon

Name

His name is very similar to House Harkonen from Frank Herbert's Dune universe (though the house was ruled by Barons and not Lords). I see that this is not enough to perhaps have it in the article, but I think it could be wortwhile to keep an eye open for more subtle Dune references, or generic Sci-Fi-references, in Dawnguard and Lord Harkon. 87.236.89.25 11:07, 12 June 2012 (UTC)

Such information would go on the Easter Eggs page. As it is, Google shows a lot of people/characters with the name Harkon, so it's very doubtful that he's based off of anyone from Dune. On the other hand, there's this vampire, but we'd have to know more about him for a definite connection (like if he's mad, if he was or is a necromancer, etc).

Very likely an Easter Egg. Also, technically a Baron is a Lord. Lord Nordeck 16:34, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

Isn't He a Breton?

I'm asking cause I created a Breton and actually ended up using the same hair style he has. The Breton character I made was for the vampire side of the Dawnguard game so I ended up looking exactly just like him... How is he a Nord when he uses a Breton Vampire Face and Hair Styles and such? I highly doubt Bethesda would let Nords and Bretons share the same faces and hair styles... — Unsigned comment by 172.162.4.113 (talk) at 02:30 on 25 March 2013‎ (GMT)

Yes he is a Nord. I think some races do share the same hairstyles. — Kimi the Elf ^{(talk | contribs)} 02:39, 25 March 2013 (GMT)

He actually uses HairMaleNord12 (0005140a), so your Breton has a Nord hairstyle. Silence is Golden^{Break the Silence} 02:42, 25 March 2013 (GMT)

Erm yeah, humans share all their hairstyles between them (an exception being Redguards, who share 2 of them with Orcs and have 2 unique ones) and half of them with Elves. In fact, even Khajiits have some hairstyles based on human ones. Elakyn (talk) 10:21, 25 March 2013 (GMT)
