Luther Broad is the innkeeper at Luther Broad's Boarding House in the Elven Gardens District, Imperial City. Luther Broad sells food and beds.
He wears one of only two existing blue collar shirts in Cyrodiil and pairs it with the equally rare rugged pants and the more common doeskin shoes. He is armed with a steel warhammer, which he will use to defend himself in case something goes bad. He stands behind the counter at all times, always offering beds and services.
DialogueEdit
When you approach him for the first time, he will introduce himself and his business:
- "Luther Broad's Boarding House. I'm Luther. You want beds or food, see me."
Asking him if he has a room available to rent will have him reply:
- Bed
- "If you've got 10 gold, I've got a room for the night. Deal?"
If you agree to rent the room and have ten gold on you he will take the payment and provide directions to your rented room:
- I'll take it.
- "The room's up the stairs, and it'll be the first door on your left."
If you do not have the necessary amount of gold to rent the room but agree to rent it he will be aggravated with you, and tell you to come back when you have sufficient funds:
- "Come back when you actually have the money for it."
Asking him about the room again after having already rented it will have him wish you a good night's sleep:
- "I hope you sleep well."
If Luther's disposition towards you is at least 60, you can talk to him about the Imperial City and he will mark Mephala's Shrine and Vaermina's Shrine on your map with the words:
- Imperial City
- "Daedric shrines nearby? I know of two. North of the city, south of Bruma, east of the Silver Road, is a Mephala shrine. East of the city, at the head of the Red River, is a shrine to Vaermina."
RumorsEdit
Various citizens and publicans will remark on Luther's establishment as a middle-of-the-road choice if you want a bed in the city:
- Ernest Manis: "I got no beds here. You need a bed in the Imperial City, you got four choices. The King and Queens and Luther Broads are in the Gardens. The Tiber Septim Hotel is very nice, but very expensive. There's the Bloated Float at the Waterfront. Sleep on a boat. And cheap, too."
- Pista Marillin: "Where can you find a bed in the City? I hear the Tiber Septim Hotel in Talos Plaza is very nice. In the Elven Gardens, Luther Broad's Boarding House may suit less discriminating customers."
- Willet: "Where to sleep? The Tiber Septim Hotel in Talos Plaza is nice but expensive. Luther Broad's Boarding House in Elven Gardens is just okay."
Unused DialogueEdit
Like many other publicans around Cyrodiil, Luther was at one point meant to have multiple topics related to the city he resided in. Three player-only topics still remain in the files:
- I want training.
- I want action.
- I'm looking for Daedric shrines.
His Imperial City topic response in the final game appears to be taken from the third topic.
NotesEdit
- Luther does not gain any new dialogue during The Path of Dawn, nor does he acknowledge the events afterwards. Similarly, Luther never comments on the fact that he does not get any customers on a regular basis.
