Oblivion:City Guard

< Oblivion: NPCs(Redirected from Oblivion:Bruma Investigator Guard)

The City Guard are members of the Imperial Legion serving as garrison for the cities of Cyrodiil. They are generally seen walking around the city, or at its gates and the castle. Almost all guards in Cyrodiil are Imperials, although there are a few exceptions who are either Redguards, Nords or Bretons. Like most generic NPCs, they will respawn after being killed. There are a few exceptions, but most guards are not on duty 24 hours a day. They work in shifts, just as real guards would. In most cases, a guard spends half a day either at his post or patrolling, then another guard will come to relieve him. He will then go to the nearest guard barracks, chat with other guards, eat and drink, and then finally go to sleep until it's time for his next shift.

Directions DialogueEdit

Guards can give directions. The directions vary depending on the city, but asking for directions will prompt the same dialogue:

Crime DialogueEdit

ArrestEdit

  • "Stop right there, criminal scum! Nobody breaks the law on my watch! I'm confiscating your stolen goods. Now pay your fine or it's off to jail."
  • "Stop! You violated the law. Pay the court a fine or serve your sentence. Your stolen goods are now forfeit."
  • "It's all over, lawbreaker! Your spree is at an end. I'll take any stolen goods you have. The next move is yours -- Pay your fine, or I haul you away!"
  • "Looks like you are in some trouble. Since we are friends, don't worry. I'll look the other way and take care of that fine for you." (Disposition above 90, bounty less than 1000)
  • "Stop, criminal! I've heard of you. Your criminal exploits are well-known. Pay the fine or serve your sentence. Your stolen goods are forfeit." (Infamy above 100)

Not Enough GoldEdit

  • "Stop! You violated the law. Since you lack the funds to pay the court, you must serve out your sentence. Your stolen goods are now forfeit."
  • "Well now, what do we have here? Caught in the act and no gold to pay your fine? I'm confiscating your stolen goods. Now it's off to jail with ya!"
  • "Break the law on my watch, will ya? I'll be confiscating your stolen goods. Oh, and no gold to pay your fine, hmm? It's off to the lockup then!"

Go to JailEdit

  • "Hope you rot, criminal scum." (If disposition is under 50)
  • "Serve your time peaceably, and pay your debt to society." (Disposition above 50)

Resist ArrestEdit

  • "Then pay with your blood!"
  • "I'll make Captain for this!" (If the player is disguised as the Gray Fox, regardless of Guard rank. This includes Hieronymus Lex, who doesn't have any special dialogue despite his history).

CombatEdit

  • "You should have paid the fine!"
  • "Man down! Man down!" (When a fellow guardsman has been killed)
  • "It's the Gray Fox! You're under arrest!" (Only if the player is wearing the Gray Cowl)

TrespassingEdit

  • "Trespassing is against the law! Guards! I'm placing you under arrest!"

TheftEdit

  • "Stop! Thief!"
  • "Thief! You won't get away with this!"
  • "You treacherous little filcher, how dare you steal from me!"
  • "I saw that, criminal scum!"
  • "Stay where you are, thief!"
  • "Drop it, you sticky-palmed little worm!"
  • "Put that back, you worthless thief."
  • "Somebody! Help! Come quickly! We've got a burglar!"

AssaultEdit

  • "You there, stop!"

Pay GoldEdit

  • "That's too bad. I was hoping you'd resist arrest. Okay. Here's the procedure. We go to the castle. First we search you, confiscate any stolen goods. Then you pay your fine, and we release you." (Disposition below 50)
  • "Here's the procedure. We go to the castle. First we search you, confiscate any stolen goods. Then you pay your fine, and we release you." (Disposition above 50)

Unused DialogueEdit

There are two lines of unused dialogue. The first would apply when being arrested with an infamy of more than 100, the second allows the Gray Fox to bribe guards.

  • "So, the infamous criminal surrenders? This calls for a celebration! So... pay the fine or serve your sentence. Your stolen goods are forfeit."
  • "I don't usually take bribes, but I'll look the other way just this once. If I see you again though, I'll have to arrest you."
