Argonian Vampires

can you make a argonian a vampire? if its possable then how?Saigemasterarrow 19:07, 23 May 2008 (EDT)

Same as anyone else, it's just 4 times less likely due to their 75% disease resistance. Incidentally, your question is already answered in the note right on the bottom of the article. --TheRealLurlock ^Talk 09:24, 24 May 2008 (EDT)

It's worth noting that Vicente's "Dark Gift" bypasses Resist Disease effects. --Debatra 03:24, 21 June 2008 (EDT)

Good point. I'll check the article for that quest, and if it doesn't note that, I'll add it. --Robin Hood (Talk • E-mail • Contribs) 14:57, 25 June 2008 (EDT)

No don't add it, if you examine the page history i did just that earlier in the week and my edits were reverted as they would have to be placed on too many pages. Personally i disagreed with the revert but as they say... don't anger the admins! :p Lewbot1 15:57, 25 June 2008 (EDT)

There was already a note on the quest page, which was where I figured it would be approrpiate, so I didn't worry about it. And being a Patroller, I interact with the Admins fairly regularly. :) --Robin Hood (Talk • E-mail • Contribs) 21:07, 25 June 2008 (EDT)

Black marsh names

During a visit to a town i spoke to an argonian who had a descriptive phrase name. he said that he had another name that couldn't be pronounced by non-black marsh denizens should this be added as it does explain why some have names and others have descriptive phrases.

Proper punctuation is your friend! Still, the information seems valid, but I don't know if it's too redundant to mention on the main page. Let's see what the admins have to say.--Darth NANAME 23:51, 29 June 2008 (EDT)

The article on Argonian names has been updated accordingly. I couldn't really see any place on the Argonian article where the information would fit into the Argonian article, either here or at Lore:Argonian. --Nephele^Talk 21:11, 27 July 2008 (EDT)

I couldn't find the information about Argonian names being unpronouncable, was this removed? 118.82.150.60 11:22, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

In-Game Descriptions

I know that several races essentially have this information in their into paragraphs, but several don't. I wanted to be consistent so I put it on all ten pages. I think it's useful to have the direct, in-game quote but I'd understand if people don't want to have some of the duplication and decide to trim things a bit in the intros. –Rpeh^{•T•C•E•} 15:25, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

Wait, what?

Okay, that's like the second or third time I've heard a female argonian referred to as a male (He instead of she). Is this some kind of cultural thing with argonians? (the two I can remember are City-swimmer, and two NPCs referred to Deetsan in this way, too.) Aztectornado 03:23, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

No, these are just slips of the pen from Bethesda dialogue writers, there is really nothing behind it. --Timenn-<talk> 20:33, 8 September 2009 (UTC)

I assumed, in City-Swimmer's case, she was just saying it in that you wouldnt know when you first meet her, so for all you know City-Swimmer was soem other person. Though we players see names when we put the cursor over them, our character doesnt REALLY know. Kiutu

Argonian anatomy

Whats happened to the argonians extra leg joint? It would appear to have completely disapeared. Is this a slip or deliberate? Or are the Argonians in oblivion a different race? — Unsigned comment by 92.29.25.207 (talk) on 29 October 2009

It's explained at Lore:Argonian#History. --Timenn-<talk> 16:04, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

Argonians of morrowind don't have an extra leg joint. Certain parts of their legs are just proportioned different, such as a dog's. The length and construction of their ankles to toes are mearly different.--184.59.234.134 02:32, 24 August 2010 (UTC)

I believe that's what he's talking about. Cirith Mara 04:16, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Race-Specific Dialogue

While playing an Argonian, I keep getting what looks like the dialogue listed for Imperials, with the exceptions of "Greetings, Argonian" and "You'll make a fine pair of boots, lizard". --Debatra 03:16, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

Stealing their heart

If I pickpocket their heart, will they die? Their heart should be mentioned in the article - May 21 2011 — Unsigned comment by 68.40.28.109 (talk) at 11:31 on May 21, 2011

Only one has a heart you can pickpocket.Wolfy 16:33, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

I dont think you can pickpocket any of the hearts, and only 2 have hearts at all that are items so this is impossible.--Catmaniac66 16:34, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

Wait two of hearts? who am I missing? Wolfy 16:36, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

Those hearts are quest specific. See The Renegade Shadowscale. --DKong27 ^{Talk Cont} 16:38, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
