Online:Daggerfall Guard

Daggerfall Guards are guards that patrol the city of Daggerfall. They can be encountered on the city streets, at the docks, as well as inside the Bank of Daggerfall and the Daggerfall Castle.

A male Orc Daggerfall Guard.

Dialogue

Daggerfall Guards have their own unique ambient dialogue.

"When you visit the shops and markets, be sure to tell them the Daggerfall Guard sent you."

"Move along, citizen. Move along."

"If you have anything suspicious to report, talk to Captain Aresin or Lieutenant Dubois."

When stopped by the guard while you have an outstanding bounty, their dialogue will depend on their gender and race. Depending on the choice you make, you will overhear them commenting on said choice after the dialogue window closes. Daggerfall Guards pull from the Breton and Orc guard dialogue pools.

Female Breton

If alerted, they'll call for you to stop where you are.

"Stop right there!"

"Don't take another step!"

"Stop there, churl!"

"Halt! Halt! Halt I say!"

They'll accost you when they catch up to you.

"I can't believe I caught you! I scarcely thought it possible. Well, let's end the chase properly, eh?"

"It's great to meet you! I wish it were under better circumstances. Alas, I must ask for your bounty."

"I envy you. Such a freewheeling life you must lead! I'm doomed to just demand bounties, I suppose."

"My helm's off to you! It's rare that I catch such a talented criminal. A pity you must pay the fine."

"It's not everyday I catch such a daring rogue! It is an honor to claim your bounty, truly!"

"What a catch! I'll certainly have a story to tell tomorrow at muster! Now, about that bounty…."

"Look, I'm not a brave guard. I just want to do my job and get out of here. I hope you understand."

"You've shown us what a tremendous criminal you are––now show us what an upstanding citizen you can be!"

"I can't help but notice you're armed. Um…would you be willing to pay your bounty?"

"It's an honor to meet you! I'm hardly worthy to demand your bounty. But here I am."

"Halt, you vile offender! As much as this depresses me, I must uphold the letter of the law!"

"Nothing matters. We're all going to die. But pay your bounty and clear one black mark before the end."

"I'm sure this is all just a misunderstanding. Pay your bounty and allow me to clear your record."

"Seeing you like that, with a bounty on your head, saddens my heart. Pay your bounty. Make me smile."

"If you refuse to settle your accounts, then I'm afraid you will leave me no choice."

"The fine assessed for your crime is perfectly reasonable. Will you pay?"

"If you pay your bounty, we can avoid an unfortunate turn of events."

"I believe we can clear up this situation as soon as you pay the proper bounty."

"Sometimes I wonder, what's the point? You're just going to go out and break the law again."

"I can make all your legal troubles go away. For the usual bounty, of course."

"This is a simple clerical matter. Pay your bounty and we can remove this blemish from your record."

"Such sad business, collecting criminal bounties. Now pay up before I start weeping."

"I am here to assist you, citizen. As soon as I collect your bounty, this will all be over."

"Could I possibly convince you to do the right thing and pay your fine? Please?"

"How depressing. You have a bounty on your head. If you pay it and clear your name, I'll still be sad."

"There's no point in trying to escape. There are more guards after you than there are trees in the forest."

"Not much fun to walk around with a price tag on your head, is it? How about you pay up?"

"Let's play a little game. I catch you and collect your bounty. Then you. Catch. Me."

"You look like someone I want to get to know better. A lot better. But I need to collect your bounty first."

"What a sorry affair! You're a victim of circumstances, but I still need you to pay your fine."

"I'm sure you hate hearing this over and over, but it's my job. Will you pay your bounty?"

"Hello. Excuse me? Over here. I'm supposed to collect a bounty from you, I think."

"I'm just doing my job. It's nothing personal. But you're on my list and I have to collect your fine."

"I don't want any trouble. Really, I don't! Pay your bounty and we can both forget this ever happened."

"The law demands you pay your bounty. Me? I'm going to ask nicely and hope you agree."

"I'm not usually attracted to criminals, but for you I'd make an exception. After you pay your bounty, of course."

"If you pay your bounty like a good criminal, I may let you see my collection of antique riding crops."

"If you wanted to meet me, you could have asked. Now I have to make this official."

"What an exhilarating chase! Now give me your bounty and maybe I'll let you catch me."

"Let's finish this ugly business then get a drink. You're buying. No? You're right, let's keep it professional."

"I can respect someone who wants to get caught. And I do love doing the catching. Now pay up, dear."

"I know what it's like––always on the run, the law hot on your tail. Pay up and this can be over."

If you pay your bounty, they'll be satisfied and let you go. The result is the same if you ask for clemency.

[Pay] Here's <payable bounty amount> gold and everything I've stolen. Clear my bounty.

"Thank you! It was a pleasure."

"How sad. Your name has been cleared."

"It's just a matter of time. You will be back."

"I'm so glad that's done with."

"Maybe we could meet later. We could ... talk."

[Clemency] I have powerful friends. My bounty has already been covered.

"Go on. I don't want any trouble."

If you flee, the guard will utter an ambient line of dialogue before giving chase.

[Flee in <30> sec] I won't pay the bounty.

"And this was going so well!"

"You're smarter than this!"

"Stop criminal! Please stop!

"It's probably my fault."

"I knew this would happen!"

"Resist and this will go harder for you!"

"I'm within my rights to use force!"

"Why does this always happen to me?"

"You people never learn, do you?"

"I thought we had a good thing going!"

"So you want to play rough, do you?"

Male Breton

If alerted, they'll call for you to stop where you are.

"Hold criminal!"

"Stop right there!"

"You there!"

"For the love of Stendarr!"

"Stop miscreant!"

"Stand down at once!"

They'll accost you when they catch up to you.

"No need to get defensive! I don't want there to be blood, especially not mine."

"Stop, Criminal. Hand over that bounty, or ... or else!"

"I'm still new to this guard work, so please, go easy on me. Could you just do the right thing here?"

"Please. This doesn't have to get ugly. Just pay your bounty and we can both walk away."

"I don't like this any more than you do, but I–I have to do it. Can you just pay your bounty?"

"Um. You're a criminal, so I guess that means I have to stop you. Please just be nice about this."

"I-I don't want to inconvenience you, but ... I-I have to ask for your bounty."

"I'm not looking for a fight, but I–I have to ask you to pay your bounty."

"I'd love to just let you go, but that wouldn't be good for either of us. So pay your fine, all right?"

"Make restitution, say you're sorry, and this will all go away. I promise."

"You can go no further unless you settle the bounty for your crimes."

"If the hand offends us, I say cut it off! Or I accept gold in lieu of body parts."

"We don't tolerate lawbreakers here. Pay your bounty or be punished most painfully."

"You bounty will cover the next few rounds of drinks. We all appreciate your contribution."

"Your reign of evil ends here, malefactor! Pay your bounty or suffer the consequences!"

"No one can skirt the law forever, friend. Now why don't you pay up and we can call it a day?"

"There is nowhere you can run that I will not follow, rogue! Pay your bounty!"

"Let me state this plainly so that you clearly understand. Pay your bounty or there will be pain."

"You made a mistake. Things happen. Let me help you clear this up. Can you pay your fine?"

"Yes, your name's on my list. That's not the end of the world. I'll cross it off as soon as you pay me."

"Last time a criminal fled, I sent him to the dirt. I suggest you pay. Unless you like dirt."

"Let's not get excited. I don't want any trouble. Pay me your bounty and I'll be on my way."

"Your deplorable actions have a cost, and that cost is justice!"

"Punishing parasites like you is the reason I get up in the morning."

"If I were you I'd pay that bounty in a hurry. I'm not in a patient mood."

"The gaze of justice has fallen upon you, offender! Will you pay your bounty?"

"You've reached the crossroads of fate, my friend. Pay in gold or pay in blood."

"Just a minute. Your crimes are known here, and I would see your bounty collected."

"There's no talking yourself out of this one. You committed a crime and got caught."

"I hate people. When you commit a crime, I have to deal with people. See where this is going? Pay up."

"If it were up to me, I'd put you in a cell and throw away the key."

"Your kind makes me sick. Pay the bounty and then get where I can't see you."

"Your options are exhausted, outlaw! Your only chance is to fall on the mercy of the law and pay your fine."

"I don't have time for messing around. Pay the bounty."

"You want to break the law, you deal with me. Pay the bounty."

"You're stuck, criminal. Cornered. So pay the bounty and I'll let you move on."

"You're a good person. I can tell. Now prove it and pay your bounty."

"Illicit behavior shall not be tolerated! Pay your fine or face my fury!"

"Friend! Can I call you friend? You're in a bit of a pickle, but I can help you if you pay your fine."

"You've got a bounty to pay, but don't fret. Play your cards right and you'll be on your way before you know it."

"This is all just one big misunderstanding, am I right? Just pay the bounty and you're free to go."

"Look, we all make mistakes. Pay the fine and we can put this ugly business behind us."

"Don't give me a reason to chase you. Just pay your bounty and be on your way."

"Don't give me any trouble. If you pay your bounty, you'll walk free."

"I don't care why you did it. Pay your bounty and you're free to go."

"You need to pay your bounty. Don't make this harder than it has to be."

"Pay the bounty and you'll be on your way. Come, let's not make a scene."

"Hand over your bounty. If you reach for your weapons, I'll kill you where you stand."

"We know what you've done. Pay your bounty and we'll leave you be."

"We both know how this works. Try anything and I'll take the bounty out of your hide."

"Looks like you've got a bounty to pay off. But you can't put a price on a clean slate, am I right?"

"I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to ask for your payment. You seem nice, but business is business."

"I'm afraid I'm here to collect your bounty. If it helps, just think of this as a fresh start!"

"There's no need for violence. Simply pay the bounty and you're free to go. Easy, right?"

"I'm prepared to forget this whole thing if you pay your bounty. No harm done, right?"

"I hate to be a bother, but I'd appreciate it if you paid your bounty now."

If you pay your bounty, they'll be satisfied and let you go. The result is the same if you ask for clemency.

[Pay] Here's <payable bounty amount> gold and everything I've stolen. Clear my bounty.

"Gods, that was easier than I thought."

"You see. Look how easy it was."

"Good choice. Now get out of here."

"Don't you feel better now?"

[Clemency] I have powerful friends. My bounty has already been covered.

"Mark my words, I will not let you go a second, um, time."

If you flee, the guard will utter an ambient line of dialogue before giving chase.

[Flee in <30> sec] I won't pay the bounty.

"Oh gods, I don't want to die!"

"Gall and pox! I hate this!

"Why did you go and do that?"

"The painful approach then!"

"Cease and desist!"

"You're forcing my hand!"

"You won't win this fight!"

"Escape is not an option!"

"You escape? The audacity!"

"Well, if you want to fight…"

"I'm going to make this hurt!"

"You're not going anywhere!"

"This could have been so easy!"

"Oh why did you have to do that?"

"That was your last mistake!"

"You shouldn't have done that!"

Female Orc

If alerted, they'll call for you to stop where you are.

"Got you!"

"Stop!"

"Not another step!"

"I order you to stop!"

They'll accost you when they catch up to you.

"Fun time's over, you Goblin-kissing bastard! Pay the bounty or this law-dog is going to chew you up!"

"Don't mess with me. Captain's breathing down my neck to collect a bounty, and you're the one."

"Two ways this can go. Pay me and I'll pretend I didn't see you, or refuse and I smash your face."

"You know what? You're such a good sort that I think I'll pay your bounty for you. That was a joke."

"Nice try, runt! Now you can pay the bounty in coin or teeth—what's it gonna be?"

"All right ogre-bait, I'm giving you to the count of three to pay your bounty! One…. Two…."

"Think you're real clever, eh? Well the law is here to settle the score! Pay up or else!"

"Fun time's over, you Goblin-kissing bastard! Pay the bounty or this law-dog is going to chew you up!"

"Ha! Caught you, runt! Now pay the fine or I'll ... I dunno ... beat you up or something."

"You're caught! Pay the fine or I start throwing punches!"

"You going to pay, or do I have to smack you around?"

"Crime doesn't pay! So pay me .... Wait. Crime doesn't pay you--it pays me. Ugh! My head hurts."

"Hey! Yeah, you! I saw what you did. Pay the fine or face the consequences!"

"Thought you were gonna get away, eh? You're dumber than I am!"

"Hold it, you law-breaking bastard! You've got a bounty that needs paying. With gold I mean."

"You got a bounty to pay, runt. And no funny business. Someone's gonna count it."

"Here we go again: Cooperate and I won't have to kill you."

"Trust me, I enjoy this even less than you do. Pay the fine."

"All right, you broke the law so now ... uhm .... Oh right, now you gotta pay the bounty!"

"You dumb or something? Only dumb folks do crime. Now pay up!"

"The law says I have to stop you, but that's it. Just give me the money and you can keep walking."

"I guess you can't help yourself. Doesn't make what you did any less wrong."

"We've got laws, dungheap! Break any more of them and you'll pay with a lot more than gold!"

"You're gonna pay your bounty, right? If not, I'll put the hurt on you!"

"It could be worse, I guess. Still, you're in a lot of trouble."

"You're just going to go back to breaking the law, I know. But I still need to get your bounty."

"You're caught, runt! Pay the fine or else!"

"Look, don't make me fill out another form. I'll take your bounty and forget I ever saw you."

"Hold on. I have your name right here. Somewhere. Stupid bounty sheets! Always getting mixed up!"

"I am this close to losing it! This close So pay your bounty and stop aggravating me!"

"Why do I always have to deal with the ugly criminals? Just pay your bounty and get lost."

"Sorry partner, but you got caught. Just give me the gold and you can get lost."

"Do you need help with that? Counting your gold? You are a criminal, so I just assume you're stupid."

"You'll run, I'm sure. But I still have to ask you to pay the fine."

"So this is how it's going to be, huh? Pay up."

"Greetings! I'll be your bounty collector today. I accept gold, and gold, and, well, gold! Pay up!"

"Ah, there must be some mistake. How could someone as upstanding as you wind up on my bounty list?"

"Great! Another criminal who hasn't paid the bounty! This is your chance to settle up, troll-breath!"

"Say you're sorry! I mean, pay your bounty! Well, you can apologize, too. If you want."

"Argh! I hate paperwork! Look, just pay your fine and we'll forget all about this."

"You should try another line of work. One that doesn't require you to avoid every guard in the territory."

"Getting caught stinks like rotten chaurus eggs, doesn't it? Why not give me the gold and keep walking?"

"I don't care what you did or who you did it to. Just give me the gold, and I'll look the other way."

"You don't have to pay a bounty. Your name is clear and you're free to go. Ha! No, really, pay your bounty."

"I always wanted to be a guard. Poorly paid, hated, feared, given tasks no one else wants…I love it."

"Mauloch's nethers! This is some drinking game. A bottle of ale after every bounty? Here we go again."

"Watch yourself. I'm faster after a couple drinks. If you're smart, you'll just pay the bounty."

"Whoa, you're shifty! Even for a criminal. Shifty like…you keep moving. Stop and pay your bounty."

"Halt and don't move! I mean, you can move a little. To pay your bounty, I guess."

If you pay your bounty, they'll be satisfied and let you go. The result is the same if you ask for clemency.

[Pay] Here's <payable bounty amount> gold and everything I've stolen. Clear my bounty.

"Huh. Now get lost!"

"That's over with then."

"Oh golly, this is heavy."

"As far as I'm concerned, this didn't happen."

[Clemency] I have powerful friends. My bounty has already been covered.

"An accident? Terrific. Now beat it, horker."

"It's hard to think clearly on all this ale, but you can go."

If you flee, the guard will utter an ambient line of dialogue before giving chase.

[Flee in <30> sec] I won't pay the bounty.

"I stink at this job!"

"Death by justice. So that's your game."

"I warned you!"

"You've asked for it!"

"Where do you think you're going?"

"This again?"

"Oh you're going to get it!"

"Can't say I'm surprised."

"Have it your way!"

"That's it! I quit ... after this fight!"

"No wonder you got caught!"

"You know this means war?"

"Alright, stand still then."

"Stay still and let me hit you!"

Male Orc

If alerted, they'll call for you to stop where you are.

"I've got you now!"

"Halt! I said halt!"

"Stop right there!"

"You won't get away from me!"

They'll accost you when they catch up to you.

"Should've skipped that last shot of Ungorth. I see three criminals. One of you, give me a bounty."

"I'd let you off, but I still need to pay my tab. You need to hand over your bounty."

"You need to pay my tab. I mean, your bounty. Criminal."

"A blade cuts whatever it touches. Just like you. I guess I should keep my distance."

"Time heals nothing, cheaters never prosper, and crime doesn't pay. It's obvious, really."

"Pay your bounty or die. There are no other options open to you."

"We make the strongholds we live in. Yours has a foundation that's cracked and rotten."

"If you don't pay, you'll be punished. That's the way of things."

"Make the right decision and pay up. I won't give you another opportunity."

"You are on notice, lawbreaker. Pay your bounty or face the wrath of justice!"

"The criminal breaks the law. The guard demands a bounty. It's all so … trivial. But you still owe a bounty, criminal."

"Pay your bounty or don't. It's all the same in the end."

"Oh, I can see the guilt is weighing you down. Let's lighten your purse a little. That should help, eh?"

"Justice is blind––and so am I, for the right price."

"Want some advice? If you don't want to get caught, become a guard. Speaking of getting caught ...."

"Nobody breaks the law around here without consulting me first. Remember that next time. Now pay up."

"Got yourself into some trouble, eh? Give me your bounty. I'll sort it out ... trust me."

"Pay up, scum. Don't worry––I guarantee that at least some will make it to your victims."

"We had a fine chase, but the time has come to pay for your crimes!"

"Poor decisions often war with common sense. Time to declare a cease fire and pay your bounty!"

"You're the first name on my bounty list today. Congratulations!"

"We have our roles to play––you, the criminal, and I, the hero. Well, the hero who collects your bounty."

"By blade and blood, halt villain and hand over your bounty!"

"A mistake, a misunderstanding, a lapse in judgement ... yes, yes. Now make it all go away and pay your fine."

"Every guard in the region wants to meet you, and I'm the lucky one to catch you first! Now, about your bounty…."

"You look like a mean son of a troll! I'd love to fight, but you'd probably prefer to pay your fine."

"I catch everyone who runs. Except for the one last night. But you're slower––I'd catch you."

"You're lucky I'm in a good mood. Pay up…unless you want to see my bad mood."

"It doesn't matter if you run. I'm not alone ... we'll all chase you down."

"I could suggest another way to pay your debt to society, but it wouldn't be proper."

"I feel all woozy when you're around. I'll ask for your bounty so we can spend more time together."

"Gore and glory, you're a healthy heifer! Pay your bounty, and I'll buy you a drink! After my shift, of course."

"You smell amazing. Please pay your bounty so I don't have to hurt your pretty face."

"For a criminal, I find you rather attractive. I wish we could meet under different circumstances."

"You're too beautiful to be a criminal. I could help you make amends, if you're interested in such things."

"A blade cuts whatever it touches. Just like you. I guess I should keep my distance."

"Um, hi. I'm a guard and I see your name is on my bounty list. Son of a troll! Let me start over…."

"Why put people in jail when you can just bleed them for gold, right? What a racket."

"Try to run from me, will you? Do that again and I'll put you in the ground."

"Your gold or your…now how does that go again? Oh, damn it, just pay me your bounty!"

"Sloppy! How do you expect to get rich owing bounties like this?"

"Pay up, chump. I don't set the fines, I just collect them. So complain to someone else."

"All right, you did the crime so now you've got to pay the fine. Like it matters…"

"Another stupid bounty. What's the point…"

"When you pay your bounty, will it put and end to your life of crime? Yeah, I didn't think so. Just pay up."

"Yeah, yeah––let's skip the protests, all right? You're caught. Just pay the bounty and you can go."

"Another day, another low-life. Just pay up. I've got better things to do than waste time with you."

"You left witnesses. Amateur mistake––and it's going to cost you."

"I'm here to collect your bounty. Pay it or fight. I don't give a damn––it's all the same to me."

"You don't look like a complete fool. Well? You going to prove me wrong?"

If you pay your bounty, they'll be satisfied and let you go. The result is the same if you ask for clemency.

[Pay] Here's <payable bounty amount> gold and everything I've stolen. Clear my bounty.

"You're smart. I like that."

"You're free. For now."

"I expect we will see each other again."

"Farewell, luscious tuber!"

"A shame. I don't want to say goodbye."

"I look forward collecting from you again."

"Yeah, fine. Now get lost!"

[Clemency] I have powerful friends. My bounty has already been covered.

"I'm going to make you smile. Watch this. You're free to go!"

"Perhaps ... that you're in the clear ... Maybe we could ... get together?

If you flee, the guard will utter an ambient line of dialogue before giving chase.

[Flee in <30> sec] I won't pay the bounty.

"All right. Stand still, then!"

"I fight better than you!"

"You shouldn't have done that!"

"Your fate is sealed, lawbreaker!"

"If you escape, someone else will find you!"

"Ha! You asked for it!"

"Dumb, dumb, dumb!"

"You really think you can beat me?"

"I'm no easy prey, villain!"

"You won't get away, weakling!"

"Toothless dog, you'll pay for that!"

"I was hoping for a different kind of contact!"

"I hope we can come to a different kind of arrangement!"

"Ah! I don't need this!"

"Finally! I love this part."

"Typical!"
