Anyone may edit this page. This is a pretty big project, so any help would be welcome!

This page lists generic dialogue for Skyrim.

Notes

• Game data indicates that when you drop an armor or weapon some NPCs might fight each other to take it, while other NPCs will watch and comment. So has anyone seen this interaction? Here is the data. There's also some data about guards fining you for dropping weapons here.
• This page is a good place to mine dialogue, but it will need to be confirmed whether it is actually said ingame or not.
• Some dialogue may be better put in more specific pages (e.g. spouse dialogue will go to SR:Marriage and orc stronghold dialogue in SR:Orc Strongholds). Should we move them there once they're finished?

FemaleYoungEager	"Not sure you should be walking around naked."

Bumping into NPC

"Ouch! Hey!" (children)	"Woah!" (MaleDrunk)	"Oaf." (FemaleSultry or FemaleShrill)
"Hey!" (Orc or MaleBrute)	"Careful!" (Khajiit)	"Whoops." (MaleYoungEager)
"Mind the way." (Argonian)	"Excuse me." (OldKindly)	"What the?" (Dunmer, MaleSlyCynical)

During a brawl

When you participate in a brawl, spectators will yell and cheer:

• "Twelve septims on the big one!"
• "Fight! Fight!"
• "Drive that snowback to the ground. Come on!"
• "You just going to stand there and take it? Fight back."
• "Who taught you to fight? Keep those hands up!"

Dropping an item

People in Skyrim will have different reactions if you drop an item, from fighting over the item in question to returning it to you.

Drop weapon, guard extorts

If you throw away a weapon, an annoyed guard may warn you for endangering public safety.

"What's the problem?"

"You shouldn't leave weapons laying [sic] around. Someone could get hurt. And if I see you do it again, that someone will be you. Have I made myself clear?"

"You have.... But I don't care."

"No? Do you care about rotting away for a month in a cell? Ah, but nobody wants that, right? Painful for you, annoying for me. So, you pay my fine... and you walk away."

"Fine. Take it. (Pay 50 gold)"

"See, that wasn't so difficult, was it."

"I'm not paying you a bribe."

"Is that so? Well then, I'll have to charge you with disturbing the Jarl's peace."

"I'm sorry."

"See that it doesn't happen again."

Fight over item

Here, up to five people will argue over your dropped item, which may lead into a fight until a guard intervenes.

	FemaleNord	"Who left that here?"
	MaleDarkElf	"Well! Finders, keepers as they say."

	MaleOrc	"Damn shame to leave that lying around."
	FemaleOrc	"It's a bit worn, but I'll take it."
	MaleSlyCynical	"Looks like it's my lucky day."
	MaleBrute	"Hmm. What's this?"

		"Hey! That's my sword." (if item is a sword)
		"Don't touch that dagger! It's mine." (if item is a dagger)

		"Keep away from that bow. It's mine." (if item is a bow)

	FemaleDarkElf	"Back off!"
	MaleOrc	"Your blood won't bother me!"
	FemaleOrc	"You'll have to fight me for it."
	MaleSlyCynical	"You're too slow and stupid to take it from me."
	MaleBrute	"I'll hurt you if I have to."
5	Any voicetype	"That can be arranged."
6	Bystander	"What's all the commotion?"
7	Another bystander	"They're fighting over that thing, I think."
8	Bystander	"Someone's going to get hurt."

MaleOldGrumpy	"Gah! Quit throwing your garbage everywhere."
FemaleKhajiit	"There's a place for trash, and that's not it."
MaleKhajiit	"Who does that? Who just leaves their garbage lying about?"
FemaleElfHaughty	"Oh, by all means. Just leave your refuse wherever you see fit."
MaleElfHaughty	"I never did understand the local custom of simply leaving one's trash wherever is convenient..."
MaleOrc	"And they call me a savage. Least I don't leave my trash lying around..."
FemaleDarkElf	"What kind of filthy barbarian just throws their trash on the ground?"
MaleDarkElf	"Hrmmm. Pick up your trash, fetcher."
FemaleCondescending	"Really, the nerve of some people, leaving their trash wherever they please."
MaleCondescending	"I swear, is there no end to these uncouth savages, just throwing their trash wherever they please..."
FemaleArgonian	"What's this? It thinks it can just throw refuse wherever it likes?"
MaleArgonian	"Look at this one. Spoiled as a child, I'll bet. Allowed to leave trash just lying around..."

MaleCoward	"Couldn't help but notice, that, um... you dropped some armor. Just wanted to check with you before I took it. Is that all right?"		"Well great! Let's see anyone try to hurt me now..."		"Aww. I thought you were done with it."
FemaleYoungEager	"Excuse me. I'm assuming that armor you got rid of wasn't an accident, but just in case, I wanted to make sure I could take it."		"Thanks! I'm going to go put it on right now."		"Oh... well. Never mind then."
MaleYoungEager	"If you're not going use that armor you dropped... do you mind if I take it?"		"I'm going to go get it right now and wear it. Many thanks!"		"Well, you'd better go pick it up then, before someone snatches it."
MaleBrute	"That armor you got rid of. I can have it, yeah?"		"Mighty decent of you."		"Well what did you go dropping it for? Got my hopes up for nothin'..."
MaleDrunk	"Hey. That armor. You got rid of it, yeah? I can take it, no problem?"		"Best luck I've had all day."		"Well... fine. I wasn't really gonna do anything with it anyway. Hmph."

Innkeeper Dialogue

Upon entering an inn, the innkeeper may greet you with one of the following lines:

• "Come on in. Let me know if you need anything, or take a seat by the fire and I'll send someone over."
• "Come on in. Just stoked the fire. Take a seat and get the cold out."
• "Welcome. Let me know if you want anything... think I got a clean mug around here somewhere."
• "Come on in. We got warm food, warm drinks, and warm beds."

You can then request that you'd like to rent a room. If you have enough gold, they will reply, "Sure thing. It's yours for a day." If not, they will instead say, "What does this look like, the Temple of Mara? No gold, no bed." Alternatively, if you already have rented a room, the innkeeper will comment, "Are you joking? You just rented a room from me."'

Once you've rented a room, the innkeeper will tell you, "I'll show you to your room. Right this way." and lead you to your newly rented room. Upon arriving, the innkeeper will tell you, "Let me know if there's anything else you need." and will exit the room.

Proposal Dialogue

Once you've started The Bonds of Matrimony and have an amulet of Mara equipped, NPCs eligible for marriage may remark on your amulet:

Voicetype	Line
VoicesMarriageArgonian	"Is that Lady Mara's amulet? I'm shocked a fine person like you isn't married already."
VoicesMarriageArrogant	"Look at you. Wearing an Amulet of Mara. Are you saying you're available?"
MaleDrunk	"You're wearing Mara's amulet? You? I'd marry you. I'd marry you twice."
VoicesMarriageNeutral	"Is that an Amulet of Mara? I'm surprised someone like you isn't spoken for."
VoicesMarriageNord	"An Amulet of Mara? You're not married? Surprising."
VoicesMarriageOrc	"That amulet. I've seen the Nords wear these when they're looking to marry. With your strength, you should have no trouble."
VoicesMarriageRough	"An Amulet of Mara, you're looking for marriage, then?"

You can engage in conversation with them to tell the NPC if you're interested in him or her. The dialogue options depend on the NPC's voicetype group:

Voicetype	Your line	Reply	Your line	Reply
VoicesMarriageArgonian	"Interested in me, are you?"	"You have a kind heart. I'd be honored to walk by your side until the trees themselves fade away, if you would have me."	"Together until the end, then."	"As short as life can be in this land, we will have each other."
			"I'm not interested. Sorry."	"Very well. I am poorer for it."
VoicesMarriageArrogant		"You are pleasant company, more than pleasant. And what about you? Would you... be interested in a life together?"	"I'd be more than interested."	"Good. The two of us then. All of Skyrim should get ready to stand aside."
			"No. Sorry."	"Waste of time, then."
MaleDrunk		"I'd be a fool to turn down a chance of marrying you. I'm game if you're game!"	"I'm game."	"Well, look at us, getting married. Life in Skyrim ain't all bad, huh?"
			"I don't think I'm game."	"What are you, some kind of tease? Stendarr's Mercy...."
VoicesMarriageNeutral		"Well, yes. Why wouldn't I be? Are you... interested in me?"	"Yes. Yes I am."	"It's settled then. Brief as life can be in Skyrim, at least we'll have each other."
			"No, I'm not."	"Oh. I'm sorry I said anything, then."
VoicesMarriageNord		"I am. I'd be glad to stand by your side until the Divines take us, if you'll have me."	"I will. Together, then."	"Together."
			"I'm sorry. I'm not interested."	"I see."
VoicesMarriageOrc		"You're strong. Clever. I'd be proud to face the challenges of life with you, if you feel the same way."	"I do. My hand is yours."	"And mine is yours."
			"I don't. Sorry."	"If that is your wish."
VoicesMarriageRough		"Won't lie, I am. And you?"	"I won't lie. I am."	"Then it's settled. You and me."
			"I'm not."	"Your choice."

If you have accepted the proposal, he or she will tell you to arrange a wedding with Maramal, a priest at the Temple of Mara:

Voicetype	Line	Line if you have arranged your wedding
VoicesMarriageArgonian	"Have you spoken to the Temple of Mara, yet? I'm so excited."	"Our wedding is soon, under Mara's loving eyes. It'll be perfect."
VoicesMarriageArrogant	"Now shouldn't you be off arranging our wedding day? Don't keep me waiting."	"I'm looking forward to our wedding. You and me...."
MaleDrunk	"Hey, shouldn't you tell the Temple of Mara that we're getting married? Be hard to have a wedding without a priest."	"We have our wedding soon, don't we? That's right, we do!"
VoicesMarriageNeutral	"You should arrange the ceremony at the Temple of Mara right away. I can't wait."	"I'll see you at our wedding!"
VoicesMarriageNord	"You go ahead and arrange the wedding ceremony when you're ready."	"Our wedding is soon. I'll see you then!"
VoicesMarriageOrc	"You should speak to the priest in the Temple of Mara to arrange the ceremony. No sense waiting."	"Never thought I'd get married under a Nord god. But with you, it feels right."
VoicesMarriageRough	"You should tell the priest we're getting married. They'll take things from there."	"The wedding is soon. It'll be a good day."

Wedding Dialogue

During your wedding in the Temple of Mara, talking to your chosen NPC will yield one of these lines, depending on the NPC's voicetype:

Voicetype	Line
VoicesMarriageArgonian	"I never would have dreamed I would be getting married in the Temple of Mara."
VoicesMarriageArrogant	"It's a simple ceremony, but it'll do. You're here. That's enough."
MaleDrunk	"Weddings always make me cry. What am I supposed to do now that I'm the one getting married?"
VoicesMarriageNeutral	"It's our wedding day. I feel like all of Skyrim is focused on just the two of us."
VoicesMarriageNord	"This is a fine wedding. And to think, it's for us."
VoicesMarriageOrc	"This ceremony is so different from an Orc marriage. Less blood."
VoicesMarriageRough	"Who would have thought I would be getting married?"

Maramal will give a speech:

"Ah here's the blushing bride/proud groom now. Let's begin the ceremony. It was Mara that first gave birth to all of creation and pledged to watch over us as her children. It is from her love of us that we first learned to love one another. It is from this love that we learn that a life lived alone is no life at all. We gather here today, under Mara's loving gaze, to bear witness to the union of two souls in eternal companionship. May they journey forth together in this life and the next, in prosperity and poverty, and in joy and hardship. Do you agree to be bound together, in love, now and forever?"

Your potential spouse will reply to this with "I do. Now and forever." You, meanwhile, have two dialogue options:

"I do. Now and forever."

"Under the authority of Mara, the Divine of Love, I declare this couple to be wed. I present to the two of you with these matching rings, blessed by Mara's divine grace. May they protect each of you in your new life together."

"Stop the wedding! I can't go through with this."

"You're just going to walk out on your betrothal? Get out of the temple now!"

If you called off the wedding, trying to speak to Maramal and the guests will have them say either "Just leave." or "Get out." The rejected NPC will also say one of the following lines:

Voicetype	Line
VoicesMarriageArgonian	"You should leave. Now."
VoicesMarriageArrogant	"You're abandoning me? Me? I never want to see you ever again."
MaleDrunk	"Get out. Leave me alone!"
VoicesMarriageNeutral	"How could you? Just go."
VoicesMarriageNord	"I don't want to see you ever again."
VoicesMarriageOrc	"Get away from me. Liar!"
VoicesMarriageRough	"Get out of my sight."

Attempting conversation will have the jilted NPC say one of these lines:

Voicetype	Line
VoicesMarriageArgonian	"And why should I speak with you? You broke my heart."
VoicesMarriageArrogant	"Look at you. Come crawling back, after everything you've done to me?"
MaleDrunk	"You. You should just go. I don't have enough ale to stomach talking to you."
VoicesMarriageNeutral	"I can't believe you're speaking to me, after what you've done. You broke my heart."
VoicesMarriageNord	"We have nothing to talk about. I can't believe what you did to me."
VoicesMarriageOrc	"Your words are cheap. Why should I speak to you after what you've done?"
VoicesMarriageRough	"GWhat do you want? There's no words left to say to each other."

You may reply in two ways, though the latter answer will have the NPC start to dislike you.

Voicetype	"It was a mistake. Can we start over?"	"I never loved you anyway."
VoicesMarriageArgonian	N/A	"You're a monster. Leave and never come back!"
VoicesMarriageArrogant	"You're testing my patience, but very well. I'll give you another chance."	"You come all this way just to hurt me a second time? Get out of my sight!"
MaleDrunk	"Try again? You and me? Fine, but I've got my eyes on you."	"What'd you say to me? Get out! I never want to see you again."
VoicesMarriageNeutral	"All right, just because it's you, we'll try again."	"Get out of my sight!"
VoicesMarriageNord	"I'll give you another chance, but watch yourself."	"Get out of here. Get out of here and never come back!"
VoicesMarriageOrc	"You want to try again? Fine, but I'll be watching you carefully."	"What did you say? Get out of my sight!"
VoicesMarriageRough	"All right, we'll start again, but watch yourself."	"Leave. Now!"

After the wedding, you can speak to your spouse about living arrangements. He or she will say one of the following lines:

Voicetype	Line
VoicesMarriageArgonian	"We're united, but where should we live? My home is yours, of course."
VoicesMarriageArrogant	"This is the happiest day of my life. Where should we live? My home is your home now, of course."
MaleDrunk	"I'm a married man! Hey, where should we live? I guess you could always stay with me."
VoicesMarriageNeutral	"We're married. I guess we'll need to decide where we're living, won't we? You can always stay with me."
VoicesMarriageNord	"I guess we have our entire lives together, now. Where should we live? You could stay with me...."
VoicesMarriageOrc	"We face the world together now. Where should we live? My home is yours."
VoicesMarriageRough	"Married? It doesn't feel like I thought it would, but I'm happy. We're married. I guess we'll need to decide where we're living, won't we? You can always stay with me."

After telling the NPC where you two will live, he or she will reply with one of these lines:

Voicetype	Line
VoicesMarriageArgonian	"It will be our little nest. I'll be waiting for you there."
VoicesMarriageArrogant	"I'll see you at home, then. Don't keep me waiting!"
MaleDrunk	The two of us, living together. I'll see you at home!"
VoicesMarriageNeutral	"Our new home. I'll see you there!"
VoicesMarriageNord	"Then I'll see you at home!"
VoicesMarriageOrc	"A home for the two of us. I'll meet you there."
VoicesMarriageRough	"I'll be waiting for you at home, then."

Voicetype	Greetings	Goodbyes	"Would you mind cooking something for me?"	"Has the store made any money?"
VoicesMarriageArgonian	"This house of yours is wondrous, at least to these eyes. I've thought about starting a store. Something to do here when you're out."	"I'll be here if you need me, love."	"Here. This is from a recipe my people have passed on to me. I can cook another tomorrow."	"The gold is flowing nicely. Here's your half of the profits, my dear."
	"Is there anything you need, dearest?"
	"Ah, it's my love, come to visit."
VoicesMarriageArrogant	"I've seen bigger houses, but it's yours, so I like it. Now, I think I need something to do if you're ever away, so I'll be opening a store."	"Leaving? Take the world by storm, dearest."	"I should be asking you the same question, but all right. I'll cook. Here, try this, and don't you dare ask for another one before tomorrow."	"Of course it has. Would you expect any less of me? Here, this is your half, my love."
	"You and I, we're the only people in Skyrim worth loving. That's what I think."
	"What do you need, love? Ask anything."
MaleDrunk	"This house is huge. I'll be tripping my feet all over this place. Hey, I think I'll start a little business here. Something to do, you know?"	"You're going? I'll miss you, dear."	"Here you are. I added a little mead into the recipe. I think it tastes better. Let me know what you think tomorrow, I'll make another one."	"You want your share, don't you? Here you are, love."
	"Hello, dear. I haven't been drinking too much, if that's what you're thinking."
	"I love you. You know that, right?"
VoicesMarriageNeutral	"It's a wonderful house, my love. If you don't mind, I'm going to start a small store. Something to do whenever you're on the road."	"Goodbye, my love."	"Here, this is fresh. I'll have another meal ready tomorrow."	"We have a cozy little profit. Here. This is your share, love."
	"Hello, my love. Back from some adventure I bet."
	"Yes, my love? What do you need?"
VoicesMarriageNord	"You have quite a house. I'm thinking of setting up a small store here. Sell odds and ends."	"Bye, love."	"Here. Wouldn't want you going into a fight on an empty stomach. I'll have another meal ready tomorrow."	"We've made a bit of gold. Here, love, this is your share."
	"It's good to see you again, dear."
	"Do you need anything, my love?"
VoicesMarriageOrc	"Strange house, but strong. Solid. I think I'll open a store. A task to tend to whenever you're away."	"Conquer your enemies, my love."	"A warrior marches on the gut. Here. This should give you strength. I'll cook another tomorrow."	"Fortune smiles on us. Here's your share, love."
	"It's pleasing to see you again."
	"Speak. You can ask anything of me, love."
VoicesMarriageRough	"A good house. You chose well. I don't like sitting still, so I've decided to open a store. Buy and sell whatever is needed."	"I'll be here, my dear."	"I can. Here. This is fresh. I'll have another one made tomorrow."	"It has. Here, this is your half, love."
	"Good to see you, dear."
	"Yes, love?"

"I'd like us to move somewhere else."

MaleDrunk	"I was just getting settled in. Where are we going?"
VoicesMarriageNeutral	"Oh? Where?"
VoicesMarriageNord	"Where are you thinking"
VoicesMarriageOrc	"Where?"
VoicesMarriageRough	"And where would that be?"

After telling your spouse where to move, he or she will reply with:

VoicesMarriageArrogant	"If that's what you want. I'll see you there, soon."

VoicesMarriageNord	"I'll meet you there."
VoicesMarriageOrc	"I'll see you there, then."
VoicesMarriageRough	"I'll see you there."

Asking how the children are doing
Markarth

"You tell me. Between the Forsworn and the mines, Markarth is no place to raise a child."	VoicesMarriageAdoptionArrogant
	VoicesMarriageAdoptionRough
"All right. I do worry, though, no matter how many times the guards say Markarth is safe."	VoicesMarriageAdoptionNeutral
"Honestly, I'm a little worried. Markarth is nice enough, but... I wonder if it's really safe for children."	VoicesMarriageAdoptionNord
"Fine, fine. This city's not safe, but... that's good. Keeps a kid on edge, alert. Could keep 'em alive when they grow up."	VoicesMarriageAdoptionOrc
Riften
Line	Voicetype
"Oh, fine, if you want to bring up little pickpockets. This place is a terrible influence on a child."	VoicesMarriageAdoptionArrogant
	VoicesMarriageAdoptionRough
"Just fine, love. The weather here is wonderful, perfect for playing outdoors."	VoicesMarriageAdoptionNeutral
"Well enough. Riften's a tough city, but... it's a tough world. Kid has to learn to stand up for themselves sometime."	VoicesMarriageAdoptionNord
"Hmph. This city's crawling with thieves. Cowards. Kid could learn some bad habits here."	VoicesMarriageAdoptionOrc
Solitude

"Couldn't be better. Whiterun is perfect for a child- great weather, plenty of space, friends to play with. What more could you want?"	VoicesMarriageAdoptionNord
"Fine, fine. Plenty of kids here to play and spar with. Plenty of trades to learn. It's a good place to raise a child."	VoicesMarriageAdoptionOrc

"Better than ever. Nothing like living off the land to teach you how to fight, how to survive. We'll have a little warrior on our hands in no time."	VoicesMarriageAdoptionOrc

Orc Strongholds Dialogue

Some dialogue specific to Orc strongholds will not be available unless you become Blood-Kin, either by being an Orc yourself or by completing certain quests for Orcs.

During your first time approaching a stronghold, one of its guards will address you with either "Halt, outlander. By the Code of Malacath, this stronghold belongs to the Orcs. Your kind are unwelcome." or "Welcome, child of Malacath. Your kin bid you welcome to our stronghold." if you are an Orc yourself.

If you are not an Orc, you have two ways to reply:

"I'm just a traveler. What is this place?"

"This is our stronghold. Here, we are free to live as Malacath intended, away from the prying eyes of the Nords. You're not an Orc, or Blood-Kin, so stay out. We only help our own."

"I go where I please, Orc."

"We won't kill you, outlander, but we don't want you here. Remember that."

Orc characters will instead get these options:

"I don't understand. What is this place?"

"This is our stronghold. Here, we are free to live as Malacath intended, away from the prying eyes of the Nords. You must have been away from your kind for a long time to forget. Come, speak to the chief and the wise woman and remember."

"You're no kin of mine, pig-face."

"Ha. We admire your fighting spirit, Orc-Kin. You'll fit right in here. Come inside."

???^{[verification needed — When do you hear these following lines?]}

• "What are you doing here, outlander? We don't deal with your kind."
• "This is our stronghold. Leave."
• "Outsiders. Nothing but trouble."
• "Malacath blesses us with this land. It's not for your kind."
• "This stronghold is for the Orcs. Leave. Now."
• "We don't know you, and we don't want you here."
• "Leave, outlander."
• "You've no right to be here. This place is for Orcs. And Orcs alone."
• "Outlanders should learn to not wander where they don't belong."

If you are not Blood-Kin, entering an Orc stronghold will have its residents warning you:

• "You have no business in our stronghold, outlander."
• "Malacath blesses this land for the Orcs. And the Orcs alone."
• "We won't kill you, outlander, but we don't want you here."

If you are Blood-Kin and come to an Orc stronghold at night, the Orcs keeping watch will constantly say one of these lines:

• "Most of my kin are in the longhouse. Come back during the day if you wish to trade."
• "It's late outlander. Come back in the morning if you need to spend coin."
• "We only trade during the day, outlander. At night, most rest in the longhouse."

In any Orc stronghold, you may ask its chieftain about their culture.

"You're the chief?"

"Yes. I earned the right by slaying my father in single combat. One day, I will have a son who will challenge me when I become too old to lead, and the stronghold will have a new chief. Until then, I alone have the right to have wives and children. It ensures our strength."

"How do the Orcs govern themselves?"

"The Code of Malacath. It is both tradition and law in the strongholds. Break the code, and you must pay Blood Price. The code is not written anywhere. It is known and carried on by the Orcs, and all who live in the strongholds follow it. For an outlander, following it is simple. Do not steal or attack anyone in the stronghold, or be ready to pay in gold or blood."

You can also ask the stronghold's wise woman a few questions.

"Tell me more about your people."

"We have lived in Skyrim since before the Nords came. Our way is simple, all work to make the tribe strong. Only the bravest are allowed to lead, and to marry. A great chief is able to attract many wives and raise bold children. Wise women like myself are mothers of chieftains. We guide the tribe and advice our kin on what is most pleasing to Malacath."

"Who is Malacath?"

If you are not Blood-Kin: "He is the Daedric Lord of the Orcs. The keeper of the Sworn Oath and the Bloody Curse. We live by his code and follow his teachings. An outlander like you wouldn't understand." OR if you are an Orc: "You do not remember the Daedric Lord of the Orcs? The keeper of the Sworn Oath and the Bloody Curse? We live by his code and follow his teachings. Spend some time with the wise woman and you'll remember."

If you are Blood-Kin: "He is our creator and master. The Daedric Lord of the Sworn Oath and the Bloody Curse. Malacath teaches us to honor all words with action. To demand blood from your enemies and strength from your allies. He watches over all Orcs as his children. A truth those who leave the stronghold are quick to forget."

If you are Blood-Kin, you may comment to the stronghold's blacksmith(s) about how impressive their weapons and armor are. He or she will reply, "It is said that an Orc first learns to wield a hammer in his/her mother's womb. By tradition, a mother always teaches her children how to smith. If a chief has a second wife, she is called the "Forge-wife" in honor of this."

Orc Miner Dialogue

A few Orcs that spend their entire lives inside the mines of their given strongholds share some generic dialogue about mining. Specifically, these Orcs are Mahk, Ghak, Dulug, Gul, Ghamorz, Mogdurz, and Bor. These lines of dialogue are:

• "I'm here to mine, outlander. So unless you want to dig, get out."
• "I have metal to dig."
• "Malacath has given me the task to mine. Good ore brings strength to our people."
• "Every Orc learns the heavy labor of mining. All spend years in the caves."
• "The mines are hard, but Malacath rewards those who rise to the challenge."

Committing a crime in an Orc stronghold

Any criminal act will cause the stronghold's Orcs to pursue you. He or she will stop you, saying either "By the Code of Malacath, you must pay bloodprice for your crimes. Which will it be, blood or gold?" or "Your crimes offend the Code of Malacath and we demand payment. Choose. Gold or blood."

You may respond in two ways, though the first will have them attack you and the second will have you pay the bounty.

"Over my dead body."

"Today is a good day to die." OR "Fight well, and I'll make sure your corpse is not dishonored."

"I'll pay. Don't worry. (<CrimeGold> gold)" (only available if you have enough gold)

"Huh. Okay. We'll test your mettle another day." OR "Typical outlander weakling. But your gold will strengthen our clan."

"I don't have the gold right now. (<CrimeGold> gold)" (only available if you don't have enough gold)

"Then your poverty is my reward. Kill or be killed!"

Killing a dragon

Upon a dragon's death, NPCs will gather and gawk at it, commenting with any of these lines:

• "It's really dead, then?"
• "I never would have believed it, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes..."
• "It may be dead now, but... where did it come from?"
• "In all my years, I've never seen such a thing..."

As you absorb the dragon's soul, the NPCs may comment with one of these lines:

• "Something's happening..."
• "What manner of magic is this?"
• "Look out! Don't get too close!"

After you absorb the soul, NPCs may further comment:

• "It's like the ancient legends. Dragonborn..."
• "It can't be... You... You took its very soul..."
• "By the gods... I don't even know what to say..."

Khajiit Caravan Dialogue

Greetings These lines of dialogue are shared between Khajiit caravan guards and merchants: "The roads of Skyrim lead to many dangers." "The warm sand of Elsweyr is far away from here." "The longer we travel the roads of Skyrim, the more empty this land seems." "The wind blows bitter cold in this place." "The road makes this one weary." Female-only "A welcome to you, fellow traveler." "The air is so clear in Skyrim, one can see forever." "It is a strange sight, the white flakes that sometimes fall from the sky." "A peaceful greeting to you." "How high the mountains of Skyrim rise!" "There is much beauty in this place." Male-only "We are creatures of the desert. The north wind chills us to the bones."

Goodbyes "May your road lead you to warm sands." "I hope that you will come to do business with us again." "May the sun keep you warm even in this land of bitter cold." "Until our next meeting, if such is fated." "I hope you will find a warmer welcome in your travels than we have found in ours." "The roads of Skyrim can be treacherous. If you must walk them, be wary."

Caravan Merchant Greetings Female-only "Please, come and browse our goods." "May your bed be warm and your food sweet." "You honor Khajiit with your presence." "Many fine things are here for you, friend." "Come and see what is for sale, traveler." "May the sun warm your path, friend." Male-only "Khajiit welcomes you, and also your coin." "Do you seek to make a purchase?" "Khajiit has wares, if you have coin." "Fortune smiles upon this meeting." "Welcome to you." "Warm sands, friend. How may this one serve you?" You may hear a Khajiit caravan merchant hawking wares: "Tools, wares and weapons, all for sale at fair prices." "Goods and wares of all kinds, and all can be yours!" "Come! Come and see what goods I offer." "Far have I traveled to bring you these fine goods. Come and see what I offer."

Caravan Guard Greetings These lines of dialogue are specific to the Khajiit caravan guards: Dro'marash, Kharjo, Khayla, and Ra'zhinda. Female-only "There is no trust for Khajiit in this place." "Khajiit are not welcome in the cities, so we make our camps outside the walls." "Some come to buy, but others come to steal. Khajiit shows no mercy to thieves." "Blessings of the moons upon you, traveler." "Khajiit is just a guard, and has no wares to sell." "Welcome to Khajiit's humble camp." Male-only "If you have come to see our wares, speak to the others." "Khajiit is ready for any troublemakers." "Khajiit is always watching for thieves and pickpockets." "Bring your coins, but do not bring trouble." "This Khajiit guards the others." "Speak to one of the others if you wish to buy something."

Conversations

You may find some of the Khajiit traveling with the caravans conversing with each other about their life trading in Skyrim.

Male Khajiit: "Soon it will be time to replenish our supply of water."
Female Khajiit: "The road takes us past many cold rivers. We can fill our skins there."
Male Khajiit: "If the river is not frozen to ice, perhaps."

Male Khajiit: "It has been a profitable journey, and yet I long for the warm sands of Elsweyr more and more each day."
Female Khajiit: "I feel the same. I do not think Khajiit were made for the cold."
Male Khajiit: "Not only that, but these Nords have no love for us. They look upon us and see only thieves and smugglers."
Female Khajiit: "It is a pity, but it cannot be helped. Perhaps if we continue to show that we can be trusted, they will open their cities to our caravans."
Male Khajiit: "Hah! I wish that I had your optimism."

Female Khajiit: "My bones ache for the moonsugar. It has been too long since I tasted it."
Male Khajiit: "You know that our supply is limited. It could be a season or more before we get a new shipment from the south."
Female Khajiit: "My ears hear the truth in your words, and yet my body shakes with the need."
Male Khajiit: "Control yourself! Do not frighten away our customers with your fits."
Female Khajiit: "Yes, of course you are right. Still, I would give much for even a few grains of moonsugar."
Male Khajiit: "Put the thought out of your mind, and do not speak of it again."

Female Khajiit: "We have been in this land for so long, I have forgotten what it feels like to walk on warm sand."
Male Khajiit: "Yes, I know just what you mean. My toes are numb from the cold more often than not."
Female Khajiit: "Do you ever find that you regret making this journey?"
Male Khajiit: "In truth, I do not. I have always dreamed of seeing new lands, and it does not hurt that we are making a good profit."
Female Khajiit: "That is true. Perhaps I should be more grateful for this opportunity. Not many Khajiit can say that they have visited Skyrim."

They can be found worrying about the return of dragons:

Male Khajiit: "All this talk of dragons returning to the world makes me more than a little nervous."
Female Khajiit: "Moons protect us! I hope we do not encounter one of them on the road."
Male Khajiit: "I suppose if we do, we will find out just how fast each of us can run."
Female Khajiit: "As the saying goes, you do not need to be faster than the dragon; you need only be faster than your friends."

Female Khajiit: "Do you believe all this talk of dragons? Can the ancient ones truly have returned?"
Male Khajiit: "I wish I could say that I did not, but in every part of Skyrim, there is talk of dragon sightings. It is no coincidence."
Female Khajiit: "S'rendarr be merciful! What ill fortune that this should happen now, while we are trying to make a living."
Male Khajiit: "We are fortunate. We travel lightly, and can escape at a moment's notice. We have no home that a dragon can burn to the ground."
Female Khajiit: "I feel pity for these Nords. When the dragons attack cities and towns, they will lose everything."
Male Khajiit: "And we will lose customers. Let us hope that if there are dragons, there are only a few and they are not too foul-tempered."

They will also talk about the war and the opportunities it offers:

Male Khajiit: "I wonder if we should offer discounts to the soldiers."
Female Khajiit: "The soldiers? From which side, the Stormcloaks, or the Imperials?"
Male Khajiit: "Both. One or the other is bound to win the war eventually. Why not curry favor now, so that the victor will look upon us kindly?"
Female Khajiit: "Hah, you have the foresight of a Khajiit in a sandstorm. If we offer a discount to both sides, the winners will persecute us for helping the losers."
Male Khajiit: "Hm. I had not thought of it that way."

Female Khajiit: "Between the war and the return of the dragons, I wonder if we should not leave Skyrim and ply our trade elsewhere."
Male Khajiit: "I admit, the dragons are a concern, but we can avoid them if we do not stay in one place for too long."
Female Khajiit: "That may be, but what of the war? That is not so easy to escape from."
Male Khajiit: "The war? That is not a reason to leave, it is a reason to stay."
Female Khajiit: "And what makes you think that?"
Male Khajiit:"Because war is good for business, of course."

Unused Generic Dialogue

Generic Conversations

It appears that Skyrim had generic conversations recorded for some voicetypes:

Commoner: "Good morning."
OldGrumpy: "Bah. What's so good about it, hmm?"
Commoner: "Oh. Well. Good day."

FemaleSultry: "Hello."
FemaleNord: "Oh, hi, I'm glad I ran into you. I was wondering if..."
MaleNord: "Hello, ladies! Is there anything a big strong man can do for you this fine day?"
FemaleSultry: "I don't know. If you see any big strong men around, let us know, will you?"
Females: <Laughter>
MaleNord: "Harpies, every one of them."
FemaleSultry: "Oh, come now. Don't go away mad."

Housecarl Dialogue

All housecarls you can get share some dialogue. When they are first assigned to you, they will approach you and say, "The Jarl has appointed me to be your housecarl. It's an honor to serve you." At other times, they may greet you with one of the following lines:

• "Long life to you, Thane."
• "I am your sword and your shield."
• "Honor to you, my Thane."
• "What do you need, my Thane?"
• "Honored to see you again, my Thane."

You can ask your housecarl what a Thane means: "The Jarl has recognized you as a person of great importance in the hold. A hero. The title of Thane is an honor, a gift for your service. Guards will know to look the other way, if you tell them who you are." If asked, your housecarl will also tell you what a housecarl does: "As my Thane, I'm sworn to your service. I'll guard you, and all you own, with my life."
