Dead Men Tell Tales

Anyone loot his stuff after completing his mission, only to have his ashes somehow hire thugs to teach you a lesson for robbing him? Not sure what I grabbed from his room after he died, but I was ambushed by hired thugs awhile later carrying a letter from him. Thought that was funny.Mikerobmma 14:39, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

I had the same thing happen; I took some fire salts for the Riften blacksmith's objective. 70.24.111.7 01:47, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

I didn't have the problem for looting his corpse, but now I had his spirit sending thugs after me since I took a soul gem or something that was sitting on his cupboard... It looks like his owned belongings (not the lootable stuff) triggers the Hired Thugs, even if he has outlived his usefulness to Hermaeus Mora.

The Hired Thugs can be sent after you from almost any NPC in the game, for stealing or murder. See the linked page and the quest links on that page for more details. — ABCface^◥ 03:29, 10 September 2012 (EDT)
