Maiq is obviously an avatar of Todd Howard, he knows all but never tells the truth
The weirdest Character is probably the dragonborn
Their Motivations can change faster than channels on TV
They can bring dismay or happiness to a village,a city, even an entire hold
They serve the demons and Gods just to get stronger
Truly a mysterious Character
I have defied gods and demons, I am become death, your lord, your tyrant and saviour.
Some claim they have seen fur, scales, tanned or pale skin, some claim he could not be seen, some claim he wasn't even a man.
Nate: Hey how's it going guys it's Nate here.
Me: Hi Nate, Yeah its going gr..........
Nate: SKYRIM IS A BIG GAME...
Nazeem is the weirdest. Even though i already get to the cloud district, he always keeps asking me did i ever get to the cloud district.
There’s a reason they give you the unrelenting force shout and that’s to send Nazeem off dragonsreaches stairs
Don't blame him he has amnesia and he can't even remember where he lives or his friends 😢
@RiftDumpster he did, he once the most popular guy in town but then the amnesia hit and ran into maiq who taught him to be a snarky asshole
Weirdest part is that I actually encountered him *in* the Cloud District the other day...
Dragons were never gone; they were just invisible... and very, very quiet.
The invisible walls stopping you going out of bounds are just walls of sleeping dragons who Alduin forgot to tell about him coming back
Another thing is there were actually still dragons living both spiritually and physically after the dragon war and all just less.
In redguard at least one dragon was under the command of tiber septim and the lore refers to dragons in cyrodil which disappointingly didn’t show up in Oblvion but they’re supposed to be there.
Also obviously there’s Parthunux, but also the first dragon you fight is implied by several sources including himself speaking that he’s been around all that time just hanging out keeping a low profile waiting for a chance to fight again, and there is one dragon we know of that probably lives in morrowind somewhere or went to akavir if it chose to leave after what happened cuz a book with some evidence refers to someone defeating a dragon in morrowind but not killing, the dragon was still alive by the end giving some gift to the one who defeated them.
Put all this info together and we can confirm at least 5 dragons lived on past their being hunted,
Numinex killed by Cyrus,
At least one other dragon of Cyrodil that the lore would be based on referring to a dragon or dragons who’s breath rusted metal and who’s status is unknown as they were thought to be around still as recently as morrowind just a commonly accepted fact then,
The dragon in Morrowind who was defeated but lived and may or may not still be there,
The dragon you fight at the beginning of skyrim,
And of course parthunux,
Honorable mention Alduin though he’s cheating cuz he wasn’t present for all that time he wasn’t waiting anywhere he just skipped forward in time instantly.
But yeah don’t listen to the whiterun guard they don’t know what they’re talking about, dragons were never gone
In the Elder Srolls VI there needs to be a character called Nate who will give the player small details and other interesting trivia every now and then.
Skyrim granny got in via public petition. In fact, her character model is the only one the public has seen. If you want Nate in the game, get on that petitioning!
@@tippiebekfast No... just... expose him to radiation, till he gets cancer, can be a make a wish child and...
..oh.
Chris East Expose him to radiation? What are we trying to do, make a ghoul?
“Dragons were never gone, they were just invisible and very very quiet.”
M’aiq’s logic is 10/10
Always one of my favorite characters
He's not wrong, several dragons were in hiding. The first one you meet after Alduin? Never died. Parthunax was in hiding, and we saw in the ESO trailer that dozens were locked in a vault in Elsewyr.
Some say Alduin is Akatosh, Some say M'aiq is a liar. But don't you believe either of that..
shekmatebietch Alduin is Akatosh. Alduin isnt actually a dragon, he sinply chooses that form. Alduin, Akatosh, Auri-el are all shards of the time dragon. Alduin existed long before Akatosh
When Kjeld the younger threatened me, he caused the downfall of every Kynesgrove resident.
your game is so crisp and mine is but a stale saltine on the kitchen counter of life
@@sonicisdisappointedinyourr1158 I liked your comment just because you are a fellow enemy of
T-Series.
That's an odd but also beautiful way to put it. I feel conflicted about this.
Yeah, but that windmill blade going through the roof, really immersion breaking.
Weirdest character? Easy it’s my Argonian thief. Why her? She killed Grelod the Kind with a kinetic sweet roll to the head, revived her just to do it again and the kids loved it
Then a guard walks in and tries to arrest you for stealing the sweet roll, not for the repeated murder of one person, but for stealing the sweet roll
Jargon Madjin thankfully there’s one in my inventory at all times that I actually didn’t steal this time
My high elf assassin threw cheese at Grelod lol. I love the wierd Dragonborns
Hahahahaha glad I'm not the only one who keeps trying to kill grelod in various humorous and creative ways xD xD my best so far was using the knife and fork that you can wield as weapons xD that was hilarious...
my khajit was a weird too he join the stormcloacks XD and construc a house for old people
"Three to five years from now"
You're very optimistic, aren't ya ?
The thing is... I think Behesda will probably rush development of ES6, to draw people's attention away from the many disasters surrounding F76, so it may be that they actually might publish it in five years. Of course, that means it'll be even more broken and unfinished on release than Skyrim was, but I don't think Bethesda thinks far enough to consider that.
Cyfrik 5 years is more than long enough to make the game stable, even if you’re lazy about it.
CZcamsr Chan 5 years is still an extremely long time for game development. I could understand it being bad if it’s made in a year, but five is a huge amount of time to make a game.
@@Aplesedjr Depends what they intend to put into it.
Massive open world, thousands of characters, ton of missions, etc.
Firestar4041 you’re right, but 5 years is still a massive amount of time for such a huge game development company to make a game. They would have to actively be lazy about it for it to be absolute garbage.
Fun fact: In the Crowswood public dungeon in ESO you can find a flute with 'a gift from m'aiq to his son, m'aiq' written on it
seriously? crows wood? the place thats overran with wisps and wolves? where do i find the flute and can i keep it
M’aiq is actually an unnamed deadra lord, how is giving clues about other realities
M'aiq was a player who got trapped in the game world during Marrowinds beta testing.
Gosh, I love Miaq the Lier.
Literally every single time I was aimlessly exploring, I got so excited and loved randomly encountering him.
He's my cat!!
Um, people...
The reason M'aiq has lived so long is because _cats have 9 lives!_ He's gone through a few to get to where he is now.
There you go, Nate. Mystery solved. =)
I think he's a player who was trapped in the game world during Marrowinds beta testing. It would explain a lot
Es9 in 20 years? Thats.... not gonna happen, bud. We'll have maybe es7 then lmao
I like how you said Kyeld is certainly an odd character right as you murdered him. XD
Out of all the Dark Brotherhood contracts, killing Narfi guilt tripped me the most. I was doing the "remain silent" achievement and found out that you can chat with the victims for another remain silent prompt. If you remain silent with Narfi, he freaks out and says something like "he can see the murder in your eyes" or something similar.
After all the people who had acted disgruntled by my inconvenient presence or who outright mocked me for not speaking... The one dude who could see he was going to die (aside from the emperor) had to be the mentally unstable guy with no family left. No one to miss him. No one to hear him cry for help while I'm forced to fire an arrow in his face to silence him.
I felt horrible.
M’aiq is the best creature in all of Skyrim.
By the time tes 6 is in the alpha testing, we would have run out of fossil fuels.
There’s a theory about Maiq being a Daedric Prince. His unique circumstance just means he will forever wander Tamriel.
I wonder if Nate tortures Skyrim in The Sanctuary to get all this information O_o
@@x302justice
Nah, that's where the Dragonborn is.
Definitely the old Falkreath Sanctuary.
@@nickyhuntington5492I don't think that's good plan as Nate plays on low levels XD.
"this miner is certainly among the most unusual characters in Skyrim..." *Kjeld getting flavorblasted by the DB in the background*
M'aiq does not understand what is so impressive about shouting
M'aiq can shout whenever he wants.
Nope I stand corrected... The best line is: "... dead...lock. Leave me alone!" *Nice one Nate!*
I'm surprised he didn't just go with "the dead" simple and to the point.
Honestly. Cicero is still one of the strangest and most fun NPCs I've ever come across. I would watch an entire documentary on his past of it was available. How did he become Keeper? Why is he insane? Is it an act? When you come across him in the Dawnstar sanctuary he has a line "A joke! A funny one! Ahahahahaaa!... I get it." But he says 'I get it' with such eerie seriousness that I have to wonder if he truly is as much a Fool as the game let's on
He ISN'T insane either and you can have coherent conversations with him that highlight this.
The fact that Narfi has a dark brotherhood contract on his head breaks my heart. That's part of the reason why I couldn't bring myself to fulfill the missions of the brotherhood upon joining after killing Grelod (let's be honest, the way Grelod treats the children makes my blood boil everytime; but Narfi is just a very mentally distressed man, probably traumatized who's desperate to know what happened to his sister. I could never bring myself to kill the poor dude)
If I remember correctly, I don't think we ever find out who put a contract on him. However, I think it might have been the barkeep from the Inn in Ivarstead. He does seem suspicious about Narfi's sister's death...
With Narfi, I always thought the bartender had something to do with his sister's death. Or at least knows more than he seems too. Remember, he gives the player the quest to find the necklace and the player has the option to hand the necklace to him instead of Narfi to complete the quest.
That's what I thought, too. We might never know for sure, but I think he might have had something to do with her death. Maybe he tried to do something with her, she refused; or maybe she knew something about him that he didn't want anyone else to know 🤷🏽♂
Ever since I first went into Rannveig's Fast I checked the floor around every Word Wall in tombs before going towards them.
I've roamed through Skyrim for nearly a thousand hours and still not met everyone, it seems.
Truly, an amazing feat. I'll have to play again, has been too long.
Am I the only one sad that Nate missed the opportunity to say eaten to death
If you bring Raida's locket to the Inn proprietor, he reacts rather strangely and is likely who wants Narfi dead.
Really enjoying the content, the editing is also really amazing
Best skyrim CZcams ever! Keep up the Good work
Narfi is more than an interesting character. If you catch him sleeping and stay there for a while you can hear him having erratic nightmares, like he couldn't sleep. After you return the neckless he has some dialogue saying that now he might be able to rest. Is heavily implied that Narfi might be a Werewolf, and thats why he can't rest and people in town try to avoid him.
I'm surprised this was the first video to include M'aiq. He's one of the best encounters you get! Just enough variety of M'aiqisms to always keep them entertaining.
7:39 so my gf was playing skyrim for the first time a bit ago and she had just arrived to ranveigs fast. She sniped one of the subjugated ghosts from a pretty fair distance and the game did a kill cam where the ghost said "im sorry this isnt what i want" just as it died.
I question if the person we meet as the gourmet is actually the gourmet
0:15 - I love how the windmill just slices right through the edge of the roof like it's butter. LOL
Camelworks did a video on Narfi and gave a good amount of evidence to support his claim as to what happened. The innkeeper is potentially involved based on his responses and reactions to your questions.
Skyrim: EXISTS
Nate: *its free real estate*
Encountering M'aiq in TESO made me genuinely squawk aloud while playing. I got so excited to see him! I make it a mission to talk to / harass him as much as possible wherever our paths cross.
I wish M’aiq was an option as a follower. I actually quite like him as a character due to all the odd quotes he has 😄
Will there ever be a time Nate run out of facts for Skyrim? Probably not
And hes going to have years more of content when ES6 finally releases, if it does lmao
Funniest line of the episode: "... put an end to this man's unproductive dietary habits." *Impressed Slow Clap...*
I’m surprised that Cicero wasn’t mentioned tbfh
But...
do you get to the cloud district very often? :)
@@jakkla3036 like the one how to read my name in english? daamn
Such an immersive, cinematic shot of that clipping windmill.
Nate said Narfi and my heart immediately cracked as a result. ;~;
"I hate getting that mission to kill him, but the sweet mother commands and I must obey. Sorry, Narfi! Nothing personal, buddy." _stabbity stab!_
@@jamesanthony8438 Why the bow and arrow were invited: "Damn. I really want to stab that guy, but he's way over there!"
I stabbed him, then proceeded to use his soul to recharge my enchanted weapon, still at over 75% charge.
There are so many unique people! I never had time to listen to anyone, these videos really pick everything apart for you 💖
2:25 "Papa, momma's making me do kitching again"
*sighs* "Son your mother will pay for this....get my bat"
For some reason, when you say “sit back and relax”, it actually helps me sit back and relax. Thanks a bunch, it means more than you know.
Regarding Knjakr; the K is silent, and, I believe, it was Bethesda's attempt to make the word _knacker_ sound more Nordic by adding a /j/ sound. Like Knacker with a y in it, Knyacker.
A knacker is, in a very (very) loose sense, a type of butcher that butchered dead animals and made tackle and harnesses with the hide. But Bethesda is a US company, so they probably just thought knacker meant butcher. Close enough, I figure.
The inn keeper killed narfi and order the dark brotherhood contract. When you find narfi sister 3 iron arrows get release from the body. And the inn keeper is the only one with a bow plus if tou pay attention it hints upon 3 other indicators
Fun fact, if you use the bloodskal blade when fighting vilkas in the quest 'take up arms' he will actually class it as magic and use the dialogue he uses as if you used a spell. This works even without using the effects of the blade (power attack). Just a normal hit will do
I love how when he talks about them it shows them getting slaughtered.
I have a suggestion, I think you should try to branch out and try looking at characters and events across all of the elder scrolls series. Skyrim is big but it can't last forever and I watch your videos every day, I fall asleep to them every single night even if I've already watched them ill watch them again. I just think you should take it into consideration to maybe make your life easier. love you
I literally subscribed to you 5 minutes and then 5 minutes later you upload
M'aiq: M'aiq wishes you well.
Dragonborn: You bastard!
When you're in redwater den, you find a vampire's journal mentioning that he (the author) Stopped by in Ivarstead and ate someone. He might be the one who killed Reyda
The barkeep in Ivarstead, Wilhelm, should have been on the list. Or mention him next time?
He is a bit off, especially with what he says if you report back to him after discovering the body of Narfi's sister.
@@Qunarr
I agree, he is a decently made character. He just made me suspicious, and I could only dig so deep on PS4 lol
I dont know if people remember the innkeeper mention the cave near the town, and how she shoulnt have got closer to that, and yes the cave is part of a cult that includes Draug Lords, so it was probably a member of the cult
@@TheOUTSIDER1995
I was not implying that he killed her, only that his saying, "Reyda! You saw Reyda? Did you tell her Narfi cries? Did you tell her Narfi never said goodbye like mother and father?" seems suspicious, as that is exactly what Narfi says.
Though it could also be nothing more than a script error.
Though her body IS next to the bridge, and not to close to the barrow.... hmmmmm.... (I always go find her before I kill Narfi. Two birds, one stone.)
8:50 damn your kill cam got robbed
Nate! Thank you once again for a great video!
Your videos are great and finding out about things I have not experienced in over 8 years just baffles me.
Keep up the good work broski,

Hey nate, love the work barely play skyrim anymore after all these years but love your work and your commitment to it. Main reason I still watch you and your humour. Keep it up mate!
Todd the liar: TES 6 at its heart is a pure elder scrolls game
TES 6: 10$ to unlock M'aiq the Todd
Nothing is impossible Just because Bethesda made fallout 76 doesn’t mean all their games have pay to win mechanics. It’s just the one.
@@jamesshelton1127 Elder Scrolls Blades, TESO (that kind of game is made to make money this way, not for any RPG experience), they tried it with Skyrim with the creation club....don't worry greedy people can be creative when it comes to sucking money out of consumers (especially those with a certain addiction to it)... Ofc I exaggerated (I hope haha) to make a joke...but it's sadly not so far from reality, and I'm pretty sure we will get some sad surprises with TES 6 :/
M'Aiq the Lair is lowkey a Deadra js lol
"M'aiq has seen the end of the series of unnoticed details of this region, he didn't really understand what they meant by the legacy of their great great grandfather."
My money is on M'aiq being one of the nine divines in the flesh or one of the unknown Daedric Prince's. Seeing as his title is "the liar" in every single game he appears in, I wouldn't trust any of what he says too much.
I always thought that Kjeld the Younger was an NPC that was just given the wrong dialouge or that he was meant to be a child and they made a mistake but I like Nate's version better
Do you get to the CLOUD DISTRICT very often.
*Kills*
Here you stand, talking to a still grieving widow, why? Am I that interesting? Or perhaps there are _other_ things on your mind.
Yeah, right
Love your videos Nate!
“...the Elder Scrolls 6-three to five years from now.” Oof.
Weirdest character in Skyrim?
Isn’t it obvious?
Nazeem.
I hope Nazeem gets sat on by a mammoth and sent up to the cloud district by a giant.
You saying this made me realize I have yet to see him in my most resent play through. I bet if I load it up he will be right there lol
I'll never be tired of your videos Nate! :D
This one is always happy to chat with M'aiq. Quite funny.
I just love him & the things he says
"...dead...lock LEAVE ME ALONE!"
it's always a delight popping in and out of your channel
Hi guys, movie here. And epicnate is an exceptionally large channel filled with funny quotes, great visuals and mispronunciation. From fallout mysteries to skyrim tiny details theres alot this man has had time to refrence and poke fun at and it's kinda hard to keep track of them all. So sit back and relax because today we are going to be looking at the top 5 most "epic" Nate moments on CZcams that you might not have seen, part 1
Maiq actually tells you where to find the hidden shrine of Boethia in Morrowind, and hints at the other Easter Egg character; the talking mud crab! My favorite of his lines are when in Morrowind he lies about a hidden multiplayer mode, and in Skyrim where he points out that the people in Cyrodiil are ugly (obviously a nod to how hard it was to make your character not look ugly in vanilla es4).
I hope you never stop finding new things in these games, Nate. But I say that out of love
5 weirdest characters? Try one character: the dragonborn can change between every race and max every slider at the question of their name
He can also traverse any terrain go forever without eating knows everyone but no one cares
Hadvar had to watch everytime dragonborn morphing and he probably reached the CHIM now
How dare you kill the younger:(
M'aiq is awesome he is an immortal that always speaks wisdom.
As for Sild you can attack him from behind without falling into cage.
If Narfi killed his sister, it's entirely possible that the experience broke him, rather than the derangement being an act.
As always, your videos are of great quality.
Funniest thing in the video: Nate things TES 6 is only 4-5 years away. Cute
"Weirdest and Strangest Character in Skyrim"
Nazeem : *exists*
Hahah, "From a warlock to a deadlo...Leave me alone!" xD
Great video.
Nice, the end of the first character is a pun. That works great for making people like the video!
10:00 I hate that I laughed at that. Boo Nate, boo
Knjakr is the real gourmet!!!
I'm fully grown and hits the gym twice a day... watches a classic Bethesda game not being forgotten... almost brings me to tears😂 i am so glad these videos are made, i've plaued Skyrim 7 playthroughs... technically 100%... but yet i'm far from it and it's beautiful. Thankyou😆
"At least Alduin had a REASON for trying to conquer the world, he just wanted more power." O_o uuuuuh is that not pure evil to you?
Imagine Mai'q just discovered everything including immortality and that's why he's so weird?
"papa, mama's making me do kitchen work again"
"son, you're mother will pay for this. get my bat"
#gamerpoop
kemi I never actually knew that was in the game. I thought they came up with it
M'iaq is the most awesome NPC of TES!
What I find more weird of Nafri is that when you give him a gold, he talk normally, like any other beggar.
While during the quest to find Reyda, if you show the necklace to Wilhelm, he will say exactly the same thing that Narfi say, in the same crazy tone too.
Kjeld is challnged and people in that medevil setting wouldn't fully understand the issue.
"We never actually hear it said in game"
As if that stopped you from mispronouncing stuff in the past :P
This is so freaking true lmfao
Veel-kawss
Buuuuuurrrrrnnn
