    For those who don't know how to fly, you just need to find a giant, go talk to him and he'll teach you how to reach the Cloud district.

    Wabbajack is a play on the word Jabberwocky. Mad woman= mad hatter. She turns into a rabbit, which you are inclined to chase. .. just like Alice did.

    3:09 - Oh, I love Deep-In-His-Cups. On my first playthrough, that encounter glitched, so the game never registered that I'd had the encounter, meaning that he kept coming back every few days to give me a new hat, tell the same story, and ask for money again.
    It happened so many times that I made up a headcanon that he's fully aware I've already given him the money, but he knows I'm just going to keep giving it to him, so every time he runs low on money he buys a hat in a store, and then proceeds to track me down and do a speech he's rehearsed several times.

I followed them to find them join a battle between bandits, a giant and some necromancers. I joined the fight. And so did a dragon.

      M'aiq is a rare encounter? I met that guy on my way to the College of Winterhold. I had Lydia with me. I wanted to admire the view from a cliff and stupid Lydia pushed me off the cliff.
      I thought the fall would kill me, yet it didn't. I had like 10% hp left. Then I saw M'aiq and I thought he would be hostile and kill me, yet he didn't.

    I was once met outside a tavern by a traveler whom clamed to want to challenge me in a duel.
    Feeling confident in my abilities i accepted his challenge by selecting, "It's your funeral"
    Before i could finish pulling out my sword, i was lanched into the air by a massive fire attack.
    I don't remember his name. I don't remember where. But i do remembert the ass whooping i got tht day.
    After reloading my save, walking out of the tavern, he was nowhere to be found.

    I remember after I got the wabbajack I found it so hilarious that I was just using it on literally everything. So I was doing the last of the companions' quest where you free Kodlak from the curse. And of course I was messing around with the wabbajack turning the ghosts into chickens and stuff. And it was all fun and games until I somehow turned one of the ghosts into an immortal daedra... So it was me, two dremora lords I conjured, Farkas and Aela all five of us hitting that thing and we couldn't even put a dent in his healthbar. After 10 minutes of uselessly attacking him I left to finish the quest. As I was on my way to turn in the quest in Whiterun the courier stopped me to give me my inheritance from Farkas and Aela... I never used the wabbajack again...

      that's not surprising, unarmed kajiit are absolutely broken early in the game because of their unarmed damage boosts which puts their damage to 22, which doesn't sound like much until you realize that an unarmed kajiit has the same base damage as a dragonbone mace, which is the strongest one handed weapon in the game, with the added benefit of unarmed attacks also being faster than maces, this makes an unarmed kajiit extrermely difficult to deal with early on, they become managable once your smithing skill and weapon perks become high enough to surpass their damage output, but even then you still have to consider that unarmed attacks are stupid fast.

    there's a second random encounter with the vampire kid. I don't remember where or at what time except that it's in the daytime and it was on my first playthrough (2-3 years ago). And I just got on my 2nd a couple days ago. She's not feeding on people, she's somewhere in the woods surrounded by spiders. I forget what she says but it's basically the same line as in this video. I think she's just taking them out for a stroll or catching new ones or whatever.
    Also, fun observation, she's clearly based off of Claudia from Interview With A Vampire. But I find Claudia to be way more fascinating of a character. Skyrim's vampire child... I feel like they could have done more with her. She's just a side character that's just "I'm evil! Boo!"

      If you choose to share TWO bottles of Honningbrew Mead he'll gift you the Charmed Necklace(Carry Weight +25). If you offer Blackbrier Mead instead he gets pissed. After you get the Charmed Necklace the merry makers will usually walk to the closest farm and hang out there for the rest of the game.

    I found the Mad Woman in one of my Skyrim playthroughs, but she said absolutely nothing about Wabbajack. Instead she seemed terrified of something and begged me to help her, but before I could even say anything a band of people ran up and killed her, then started attacking me. I killed them and searched all the bodies, finding nothing that would make sense of what just happened.

      He is always by a crypt close to Whiterun. When you do the companion story you have to go with Farkas (I think) and go to a ruin for a shield brother mission. The Headless Horseman is always by there. Maybe just at night but I think I saw him during the day once. It might be different with everyone but everytime I start a new playthrough he is there. I even searched him up and he is there.

  • @Sevness

    4:50 I like to imagine he used the last scroll to try it. Basically, in Morrowind, as pointed out, there is that mage, with 3 scrolls. If you used on, it sent you into the air, but it ran out before you landed, meaning you died. But if you used one to jump, then use another as you fall, you take no falling damage, leaving 1 scroll left which seeing as you are just starting out, maybe you try to sell for some easy gold, and in some way, that guy found it, or copied it, used it, and that is the outcome.

    8:32 Interesting thing about that encounter - there are two versions of it, and I have encountered both. The one more well known version is the one shown in the video, whilst the other version might happen before you've done it, in which case instead of asking to be Wabbajacked, the Mad Women would be slightly more mad but also terrified, rambling fearfully that Sheogorath has been away from his realm for too long and that she (and the rest of his worshipers) need him back before things fall apart completely, and that someone needs to bring him back. As an extra something to take note of; I got both encounters in the same play through, which was neat.

Too bad that, and Levitate were removed by Bethesda following that installment. If you had a powerful enough version of Levitate, you could actually "fly" quite fast. I think perhaps Supergirl herself would be proud of it. Now you didn't get anything special for saving him, he was just kinda "stupid" afterwards.

    The madwoman always put me in mind of the argonian you come across in the shivering isles. The one that asks you for a pair of shoes. When you decline the argonian starts running around saying "ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni ni!" That always made my little sister laugh uncontrollably 😅

    weirdest encounter I've ever had was once in Whiterun... Braithe was nice to me and handed me a Sweet Roll.... It scared me. I hadn't talked to her in that playthrough yet.

    Just 10 000 gold? Take it. I have much more than that in my back pocket. I am the dragonborn after all

      Right? Ten thousand can a be a whole lot at first, but after level thirty it becomes pocket change. Heck, I can make 1000 gold in one day by chopping wood for 12 hours and selling it.

      Just make really overpowered potions you will get rich in no time ( the hard part is finding people that have enough to buy your potions)
