FormID: 010045DE 00Raptor GREETING 0 Do you need something hairless one? A story or a limerick, perhaps? How about a map of the wilderness?
FormID: 010045E0 00Raptor MoonSugar 0 When the moons glow in the night sky, their light becomes crystals that fall into the sea.
FormID: 010045E0 00Raptor MoonSugar 1 The tides wash these crystals into sugar cane groves where they are harvested. They contain the essence of the divine twins, Jone and Jode.
FormID: 010045E0 00Raptor MoonSugar 2 When we eat moon sugar, we are partaking of divinity. The eternal soul essence in the sugar make us eternal. It makes us one with the gods.
FormID: 010045E0 00Raptor MoonSugar 3 It's just impossible to describe the ecstasy this union creates and many think that it is just another drug, like its derivative, skooma.
FormID: 010045E0 00Raptor MoonSugar 4 But skooma is a corruption of moon sugar that brings only addiction and sorrows. Moon sugar is a divine gift to be used to remind us of our source.
FormID: 010045E0 00Raptor MoonSugar 5 It makes us better people. So don't judge me for my religious practices unless you want to wake up with a blade in your heart.
FormID: 010045E2 00Raptor CheshirBloodclaw 0 Cheshir Bloodclaw was a headhunter that I met in Elsweyr. He hunted for profit mostly, but argonians, he did for fun.
FormID: 010045E2 00Raptor CheshirBloodclaw 1 Once, as he was traveling the desert sands, he accidentally stepped on a lizard.
FormID: 010045E2 00Raptor CheshirBloodclaw 2 The little thing squirmed beside his boot since its tail was stuck underneath, but then, to Chesir's surprise, it suddenly ran off.
FormID: 010045E2 00Raptor CheshirBloodclaw 3 Lifting his boot, he saw the tail still there, still twitching. He picked it up and looked at it. It was squirming as if still trying to escape.
FormID: 010045E2 00Raptor CheshirBloodclaw 4 He then saw the lizard under a nearby bush and with reflexes possessed only by the Khajiit, he caught it and put it in a bag.
FormID: 010045E2 00Raptor CheshirBloodclaw 5 Over the next few days of observing it, he saw that the tail was growing back and the lizard was becoming complete once again.
FormID: 010045E2 00Raptor CheshirBloodclaw 6 This gave him an idea.
FormID: 010045E2 00Raptor CheshirBloodclaw 7 He searched for and waited for a suitable subject for an experiment that came to him. It was an argonian slave trader traveling to Leyawiin.
FormID: 010045E2 00Raptor CheshirBloodclaw 8 Cheshir snuck upon on the scaleface as he made camp and knocked him out. He tied him face down to some stakes in the ground and began his test.
FormID: 010045E2 00Raptor CheshirBloodclaw 9 He slowly sawed into the writhing tail with his dagger. He could have sliced it off with one clean sweep of his sword,
FormID: 010045E2 00Raptor CheshirBloodclaw 10 but he preferred to savor his work.
FormID: 010045E2 00Raptor CheshirBloodclaw 11 The tail came off with several screams, hisses and curses from the slaver and fell to the ground wiggling in its own pool of blood.
FormID: 010045E2 00Raptor CheshirBloodclaw 12 It flopped around for several hours while the argonian groaned and writhed in terrible pain.
FormID: 010045E2 00Raptor CheshirBloodclaw 13 Cheshire sat back and watched in wonder as the tail seemed to twitch harder when the argonian thrashed harder.
FormID: 010045E2 00Raptor CheshirBloodclaw 14 Finally at dawn, it lay still, and at the same moment...the argonian sighed his last breath.
FormID: 010045E2 00Raptor CheshirBloodclaw 15 Cheshir's experiment tells us something very important
FormID: 010045E2 00Raptor CheshirBloodclaw 16 If you have a few hours to kill, cut off an argonian's tail and you will have an afternoon of fine entertainment! Ha!
FormID: 010045E4 00Raptor 1stLimerick 0 There once was a Khajiit named Mashak
FormID: 010045E4 00Raptor 1stLimerick 1 Whose agility did greatly lack
FormID: 010045E4 00Raptor 1stLimerick 2 When asked what caused all his trips
FormID: 010045E4 00Raptor 1stLimerick 3 He answers, thrusting his hips,
FormID: 010045E4 00Raptor 1stLimerick 4 I'm longer in the front than the back.
FormID: 010045E6 00Raptor 2ndLimerick 0 Sanchak was an argonian mage
FormID: 010045E6 00Raptor 2ndLimerick 1 who suddenly flew into a rage
FormID: 010045E6 00Raptor 2ndLimerick 2 since was high on hist
FormID: 010045E6 00Raptor 2ndLimerick 3 other mages also got pissed
FormID: 010045E6 00Raptor 2ndLimerick 4 and now Sanchak hisses in a cage.
FormID: 010045E8 00Raptor OriginoftheDarkBrotherhood 0 The Dark Brotherhood's origins are as shrouded in shadow like the assassins it's composed of.
FormID: 010045E8 00Raptor OriginoftheDarkBrotherhood 1 In my travels, I have heard that a group of thieves' found it better to strangle the occupants of the houses they burgled.
FormID: 010045E8 00Raptor OriginoftheDarkBrotherhood 2 This group was led by a woman known only as [QUOTE]the Lady[QUOTE].
FormID: 010045E8 00Raptor OriginoftheDarkBrotherhood 3 The Lady and her followers were forced out of the Thieves' Guild because of their actions, so she formed her own guild.
FormID: 010045E8 00Raptor OriginoftheDarkBrotherhood 4 It didn't take long before they realized they could also kill people for money, instead of just making sure no one caught them.
FormID: 010045E8 00Raptor OriginoftheDarkBrotherhood 5 Once this started, they decided to scrap the burglary altogether.
FormID: 010045E8 00Raptor OriginoftheDarkBrotherhood 6 Using the shadow to stalk prey was much more profitable than being ripped off by fences.
FormID: 010045E8 00Raptor OriginoftheDarkBrotherhood 7 Thus, the precursor to the Dark Brotherhood was formed, but it wasn't a guild yet.
FormID: 010045E8 00Raptor OriginoftheDarkBrotherhood 8 About the same time, the Morang Tong was banned throughout Tamriel.
FormID: 010045E8 00Raptor OriginoftheDarkBrotherhood 9 This was due to their involvement in the assassination of Potentate Versidue-Shaie.
FormID: 010045E8 00Raptor OriginoftheDarkBrotherhood 10 Leaders of the Morang Tong appealed to higher powers and made a deal with a god.
FormID: 010045E8 00Raptor OriginoftheDarkBrotherhood 11 Vivic was to become their patron deity, pushing Mephala into secondary importance.
FormID: 010045E8 00Raptor OriginoftheDarkBrotherhood 12 Several members violently disagreed with this decision, and, knowing of the Lady and her group, joined with her.
FormID: 010045E8 00Raptor OriginoftheDarkBrotherhood 13 This formed the Dark Brotherhood that we know and love today. Or so I've heard?
