Louis Beauchamp

Louis Beauchamp is a Breton mage who can be found outside the Guild of Mages in Ald'ruhn (he is not a member of the Mages Guild however). He recently commissioned a Patchwork Airship to retrieve an artifact for him from Solstheim, but has not heard back from them. He requests your aid in determining the fate of his vessel and discovering the artifact he sent it to look for.

He seems to suffer from profound speech dysfluency and wears an extravagant robe and expensive shoes. He also carries dwemer airship plans. Aside from his natural bonus and resistance to magicka, and his ability to shield himself for short periods, he knows the following spells: Burden of Sin, Dire Weary, Great Feather, Strong Fire Shield, Strong Frost Shield, Strong Shock Shield, Wild Distraction, Dire Weakness to Fire, Dire Weakness to Frost, Dire Weakness to Magicka, Dire Weakness to Poison, Dire Weakness to Shock, Medusa's Gaze, Far Silence, Dire Noise, Reflect, Weak Spelldrinker, Wild Spelldrinker, Absorb Intelligence, Absorb Willpower, Blood Gift, Wisdom, Powerwell, Iron Will, Vivec's Mercy, Poet's Whim, and Rapid Regenerate.

If spoken to:

"Oh...um...hello...hi...that is...nice to know...um...meet you, %PCName. For a second I...I thought you were the courier...with a...a message...that is, with word of...um, my airship. Wait! Is..is that it? Up..there, in the sky..there! Oh...no, it's just a...um...a cliff racer. Ummm...ahhh...yes....ahem...."

my airship

"I...built an airship, you see. Quite a...quite a...um...beautiful craft, if I may be so...bold. Some scavenged Dwemer equip...um...parts, a few, you know...ahh...long-lasting levitation spells. Very clever...a capital idea, I know! Even hired a gang of...well, a crew I guess you'd call them. They were to fly far...to the north! Away from all this dust...to Solstheim! I paid them...paid them rather well. They were to locate Hrothmund's Barrow, and find a certain...um...item."

Hrothmund's Barrow

"Hrothmund's Barrow is a grave...well...crypt. It is said to lie...that is, the barrow is at the eye...of the wolf. There's a formation, you see. Rock...ice...that sort of thing. Shaped like a wolf...the wolf that killed Hrothmund! He's said to be um....entombed...at the wolf's eye. It's only visible from the sky...or, well...an airship. That's why I...built it. Build the airship, hire the crew, they find the barrow and recover the amulet. Then they bring it to me! Perfect plan, I thought...."

recover the amulet

"They were to recover...that is, bring me a special amulet. According to stories...legends and such...Horthmund was quite the...well...he had plenty of lady friends! He was ugly, too...ugly as a troll! But he had a magic trinket...he wore it. The Amulet of Infectious Charm, it was called. By...all records...he was buried with it. That's why I built the airship...hired the crew. I just...I must have that amulet, %PCName. But...there's been no word. I worry...I fear the crew has failed me."

crew has failed me

"Did they fly off course? Or maybe...maybe they found the amulet, and...and flew away! To meet women! No fair maiden could resist a man with the...the Amulet of Infectious Charm...in an airship, no less! Say...%PCName.... I...I don't suppose you're...well...for hire? I would...pay you...greatly...to find my airship. I'd need proof of what happened to it, of course! Evidence, as it were...just...just to be sure. And...of course...to bring me the...the amulet! I NEED that amulet."

No, Louis, I can't help you. I have other matters to attend to.

"Oh. Oh...I see. Well, um, yes...well. If you change your mind...that is, if you reconsider my offer...please...please come back and we'll talk...you know, I'll...well. Right...."

You have a deal, Louis. I'll head to Solstheim. I'll bring back some evidence that shows what happened to your airship, and recover the Amulet of Infectious Charm. ::"Oh...well...that's fine. I understand...I.... Wait.  %PCName, did you say you would help me? Why that's...that's...splen...I mean...oh, wonderful! As I said, the airship is...was...headed north, to Solstheim.... The Amulet of Infectious Charm is...well, it's supposed to be at...that is, in...Hrothmund's Barrow. At the eye of the beast...the wolf, I mean. But you must...must say the wolf's name! To enter! Say, "Ondjage." Answer wrong, and the barrow will be sealed...forever!"

However, if you have already been to the airship and retrieved the journal:

I'm no courier, Mr. Beauchamp, but I think I know what happened to your airship. I found a crash site on Solstheim and recovered the captain's journal. It does not tell a happy tale.

"The airship...crashed? Horrible...such a loss of time...and money! Oh, yes...human life, too. So tragic. Well...I am...grateful really...that you've given me this information. But you know, there's um...still the matter of an amulet. The...Amulet of Infectious Charm.... It's what the...the crew was looking for. I'd pay for it.... Search in Hrothmund's Barrow. But...well...say the right name! "Ondjage!" The wolf! If you don't...well, the barrow will be sealed...forever!"

If spoken to again if you declined to help:

"Oh...ah...%PCName. Back again...for more..um...great...I mean, interesting...well, maybe...nice..conversation, hmmm? You...you know...I still need someone...anyone, really...to help me find out where...that is, what happened to my...my airship...and help me get that...that amulet I need. I still fear that, well...that my crew has failed me."

If spoken to again if you offered to help:

"%PCName! You...you're here...and...well...I mean...you've returned! What news?"

Nothing yet, Louis, but I'm working on it.

"Oh...oh, of course. I understand...understand completely...that is, you have my complete...total confidence."

After finding the Airship Captain's Journal:

"%PCName! You...you're here...and...well...I mean...you've returned! What news?"

I found the wreckage of the airship, crashed into the mountains on Solstheim. Sadly, there were no survivors. I have recovered the captain's journal for you. It explains everything.

"The airship...crashed? Horrible, horrible...such a loss of time...and money! Oh, yes...yes...human life, too. Mustn't forget the crew...people, after all. Well...I am thankful...grateful really, that you've come to me with...um...with this information. But...ah...%PCName...you know, there's um...still the matter of the amulet, you see. I really must have...NEED, to be more accurate, the um...Amulet of Infectious Charm...."

After retrieving the Amulet:

"%PCName! You...you're here...and...well...I mean...you've returned! What news? Have you...do you have...the Amulet of Infectious Charm?"

I have recovered the Amulet of Infectious Charm from Hrothmund's Barrow.

"The...the amulet has been...found? You have actually recovered...and brought, to ME...the Amulet of Infectious Charm? Oh, how wonderful!  %PCName, I am always...and I mean forever...in your debt! Here...please...take this gold. It's the very least...the smallest...thing I could do."

If you retrieved the amulet but not the journal:

I explored Hrothmund's Barrow and found the Amulet of Infectious Charm. I still don't have any evidence showing what happened to the airship, though.

"The...the amulet has been...found? You have actually recovered...and brought, to ME...the Amulet of Infectious Charm? Oh, how wonderful!  %PCName, I am always...and I mean forever...in your debt! Here...please...take this gold. It's the very least...the smallest...thing I could do. You know, I do...that is, I am curious...to know what has happened to the...well, to the airship. After all, it did cost...I mean, a LOT of gold was invested...."

If you retrieved both at the same time:

I found the wreckage of the airship, but there were no survivors. I have recovered the captain's journal, which explains everything. I've recovered the Amulet of Infectious Charm as well.

"The airship...crashed? Smashed...was dashed into the mountains? Horrible, horrible...such a loss of time...and money! Oh, yes...yes...human life, too. Mustn't forget the crew...people, after all. Well...I am thankful...grateful really, that you've come to me with...um...with this information. And...ah...incredible work with the finding...that is, the recovery...of, um...the Amulet of Infectious Charm..... My thanks, %PCName! Here, please...take...have this gold!"

If you used the wrong name at Hrothmund's Barrow:

"You...you mean to tell me you found the entrance to...to Hrothmund's Barrow...and...and uttered the WRONG name? You...you idiot! Get away from me.... You...you're obviously completely incompetent!" (Goodbye)

After the quest:

"Aha!  %PCName, my old friend! Wonderful to *cough* see you again. Did I ever tell you how magnificently you *cough* performed your duties? Locating the airship, returning the *cough* amulet...simply marvelous. Thanks to you, Louis Beauchamp is an *cough* absolute lady killer! Blondes, brunettes, red heads -- I'll take 'em all...and they can't resist me! Ha! It's a shame I've got this *cough* fever. It's starting to slow me down! Well, got to run. I've got a *cough* hot date!" (Goodbye)

• Background: "I am Louis Beauchamp, Mage."
• Crew has failed me:
  • "I...I suppose I should have...well, you know...gone myself. But all that...flying, and cold weather and...well, maybe danger! That's what I...what I get for trying to do...you know, hire...someone else to do the job...well, expedition, really...."
