Fugitive

A hunter fires an arrow at a fugitive

The Fugitive is an Imperial bandit who can be randomly encountered in the wilderness. He will give you an item—which is usually enchanted—on sight. He will tell you not to reveal his location and flee. A hunter will appear later, asking you if anyone has come by. You have the options to lie to him and to deny that there was anyone or to tell him where the fugitive has gone or to give him the item, for 1 gold, which isn't very profitable. For the highest profit you may choose the second option, letting the hunter kill the fugitive and then loot his body.

Similar to other bandits, his equipment includes leveled light armor, a leveled one-handed weapon and shield. He also carries a random selection of items that bandits have with them.

Dialogue

The fugitive will run up to you, saying:

"Take this and hold onto it. I'll be back for it later. I'll pay you good. Don't lose it."

Umm... or Slow down. Explain yourself.

"No time to talk. Snitch or double-cross me and I'll kill you. I mean it!"

Afterwards, he will try to avoid the hunter.

Notes

• Despite what the fugitive says, there are no repercussions, regardless of whether you snitch on him or what you do with the item.
• If you kill the fugitive before the hunter arrives, he will still tell you that he plans to kill the now-dead thief.
• Due to the fugitive lacking a crime faction, you will not gain a bounty for any crime committed against him.
• The item he gives you won't be tagged as "stolen", allowing you to sell it.

Bugs

• The fugitive may approach and talk to you if you are in Beast Form. ^?
• If you drop the item the fugitive gave you before the hunter runs and speaks to you, you can still tell him about it for 1 gold, then retrieve it. ^?
• The hunter may spot the fugitive and attack him immediately, without letting him talk to you first. ^?
