Skyrim talk:Septimus Signus

Dead Men Tell Tales

Anyone loot his stuff after completing his mission, only to have his ashes somehow hire thugs to teach you a lesson for robbing him? Not sure what I grabbed from his room after he died, but I was ambushed by hired thugs awhile later carrying a letter from him. Thought that was funny.Mikerobmma 14:39, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

I had the same thing happen; I took some fire salts for the Riften blacksmith's objective. 70.24.111.7 01:47, 31 December 2011 (UTC)

I didn't have the problem for looting his corpse, but now I had his spirit sending thugs after me since I took a soul gem or something that was sitting on his cupboard... It looks like his owned belongings (not the lootable stuff) triggers the Hired Thugs, even if he has outlived his usefulness to Hermaeus Mora.

The Hired Thugs can be sent after you from almost any NPC in the game, for stealing or murder. See the linked page and the quest links on that page for more details. — ABCface^◥ 03:29, 10 September 2012 (EDT)

Vampire Friend

After downloading the Dawnguard DLC and returning to Septimus Signus's Outpost I found a non hostile vampire with him. She offers a formal greeting and just walks around, the two don't interact with each other in any way. It's been months since I've returned to this area so I'm wondering if this is a random encounter glitch or if Septimus has a rediculous calm spell available to him. I'm on the Xbox 360, has anyone else encountered a similiar problem? (Gadianzero (talk) 12:38, 14 July 2013 (GMT))

None alive remain to bear it...

• During "Discerning the Transmundane," Septimus mentions that the blood of the Dwemer is required to open the Dwemer Lockbox, and that "None alive remain to bear it." This assumes that he is unaware of the existence of Yagrum Bagarn, or that Yagrum Bagarn had since died in the last 207 years since the emergence of the Nerevarine. --Dbrown1986 (talk) 08:11, 28 May 2015 (UTC)
