You didn’t — at all.
I was just clarifying I hope was neither.
execution hood rather than an executioner’s hood — as in, he’s the one getting executed
Oh yes I read that. I’m just unaware whether I did the quest. Can’t recall. Did the other prisoners have holds? Because if not, and he’s the only masked guy, and a womaniser, I’d say he might as well be Zorro.
Or pretend to be immigrants going home, get a thousand bucks, go on vacay, and come home since you’re a white American with several generations and definitely live there
Although if they fingerprint or smth idk that might be a bit inconvenient. But if they don’t and you as a full fledged American have a similar looking illegal friend, take his papers, go abroad, he seeems to no longer be in the US, then return with your 1k.
None of that will obviously work disregard everything don’t try fucking around the borders you’ll get send to the SA Gulags
The voice actor is André Sogliuzzo, who voiced Banderas’ Puss in Boots from Shrek in various appearances outside of the main films and also voiced the actual character of Antonio Banderas in an episode of Celebrity Deathmatch
Ah, yes, so I got it more or less right, a “voice-double”. Thank you for confirming.
He’s one of the three captives you can choose to kill at the start of the Dark Brotherhood questline
Yeah but man it’s been 20 years, and whilst Morrowind I played pretty religiously and then later Skyrim again, during Oblivion’s release and heydey, I was a fuckboi, so I didn’t pay as much attention. Also more than a decade of weed on me and just now an ambien.
Maybe it’s there, but I’m in not willing to say whether I’m imagining or remembering. The wiki states he’s wearing a mask as well though? Reference? Tbf it’s an executioner’s mask. Do they all wear them though? Also he’s the only one who doesn’t yell when the others die, perhaps implying a sort of rogues attitude of vigilante justice served?
Idk man. Just writing things on Lemmy while waiting for the ambien to kick in to be able to go to bed. I’m not debating anything, just making conversation.
Oblivion Khajiit always remind me of Antonio Banderas, and while I didn’t explore the world as thoroughly in Oblivion as I did in Morrowind and Skyrim, I may have encountered Vasha when playing.
Also btw “Vash” is a sort of pirate archaeologist from TNG. Unrelated morr and than Zorro, I’m sure, but still.
has done parts to fill in for Antonio Banderas before
Like… a voice-double? Elaborate pls, I’m interested.
Or they don’t, and clearly have the causality mixed up.
He calls himself “defiler of daughters”
If that’s all the rape stuff is based on, then it’s very much the opposite of a rapist. Just like you said, a rogue. A romantic one at that.
It’s an age old trope. Stealing the lord’s gold and gems and giving his daughter one while you’re at it, consentually, ofc.
Basically, like a reference to the Zorro stereotype.
Or a somewhat loose but direct reference to the Mask of Zorro, which wouldn’t have been too old of a movie at that point. The time difference between Oblivion’s release and the releases of Mask of Zorro was 8 years.

So when Oblivion developers would’ve been working on it a few years earlier, it would have only been 5-6 years old.
Avengers Endgame came out six years ago.
Also Vasha is actually wearing a literal.
It’s not even that much work, to be honest.
I wouldn’t run 6 fireplaces at once, maybe two or three at most, and aside from chopping and carrying the wood inside, there’s not that much work in it. Just set a few pieces nicely with a piece of paper (think jenga style more than a cartoon bonfire), se it alight. Let it breathe for a while, get a good flame, then fill 'er up once it’s going nicely. I mean, depending on how hot you want the room. I’d never actually shove them full, about halfway at most maybe. Then let it burn. Then fill it up a second and maybe third time in the winter, then just let it cool while stoking the coals.
It really doesn’t feel like work.
And now I’m nostalgic.
But yeah temperature would be the least of your worries as king imo. Perhaps not the least, but a small one anyway.
People don’t even need AC on the latitude I live in.
It’s basically two winters and August.
Literally for most of the year I wear the same amount of outdoor clothing, which is a lot.
I wonder if it’s a prison thing. Like, perhaps lots of offenders, or at least a portion of them, are moms which may have done quite violent things to protect their children. So then it’s become like a prison rule that “you don’t criticise moms”, and prison rules are obeyed no matter what.
Like say there are cases of people actually being tried for CSAM for having naked selfies of themselves on their phone when they were underage. It’s not too common, and that would be the far end. But then like small transgressions of like 15years with 17-18 year old men. That guy gets charged for sexually assaulting a minor and goes to prison for it and you know they’re not gonna listen to reason about it being “an exaggeration”, he’s just treated as bad as any pedo might. Well I may be putting it a bit black and white, but I’m sure you understand what I’m getting at.
Mom’s in general are a rather terrifying force. Usually for good. But I’d hate to be on the bad side of that when it turns bad.
Like this is what the good side looks like, imo. (Say what you will about the franchise, I’ve still emotional connetion to it before the author went completely mask-off cuckoo.)
Not my daughter you BITCH! - HD
I genuinely can’t watch that without tearing up a bit. Even just now when I just watched the clip, lol.
There’s also a quote from a Doctor Who Christmas Special, where a mom from the 1940’s goes through a portal to a scifi world in the future where there’s industrial workers, who stop her at gunpoint. She turns the tables on them, despite there being three industrial workers with guns all of them, she gets the drop on them by disarming them by crying. The woman worker demands they drop their guns. Then she pulls out a pistol, “it’s wartime England”, and drops the act. Bill Bailey’s character says to her “There’s nothing you could say to convince me you’d ever use that gun.” And her reply is just: “Oh really? Well, I’m looking for my children.”
Okay yeah, wow, that’s shocking.
Just to be clear, my mom’s not on that level and doesn’t deserve to die, nor is she an evil cunt (I’d say closer to an uncaring [insert-unflattering-comparison-of-your-choice-that-isn’t-toooffensive]), but I won’t be praising her for much either.
Dc++ as well
Fireplaces create a wonderful soft warmth. Unless you live in some huge castle or it’s completely blowing through your house, warming the house with fireplaces is great. Even when there are some small drafts here and there in the house. Just wear warm socks as the floors are usually quite cool despite the room being toasty from the heat.
Then you tend the fire for some time, long enough for the fire to properly warm all the stone around it. (Even in wooden houses, the central chimney would be rather thick at the bottom where the fireplaces are, so the stones store heat during the night.)
You stoke the coals and then when it’s just red coals and no more burning, you can shut down the chimney, so the rest of the heat stays in.
It slowly dissipates through the night. (But you won’t get carbon monoxide poisoning, which is why it’s important to have the chimney open while there’s actual fire.) It might get a bit cool around the morning hours, but sleeping in the cool is actually pretty decent.
Waking up in the cold is a bitch though.
We had uhm… two chimneys and six fireplaces in the house I (mostly) grew up in. Was built in the 30’s.
You could’ve probably purchased bottom surgery, sort of.
But the quality would’ve been, eh, less satisfactory, I would presume, and you’d have died of infection in like two weeks.
My point here being you’d surely have been able to persuade some quack to take sharp implements to you with enough gold. Royalty did crazy shit back then.
But yah I’m on your side on this. Being in power in an age we romanticise might seem. Until you remember that if you fall down and scratch your knee, you could die of that with bad luck.
Healthcare systems and governments might be shit nowadays but the level of medical technology is so vastly superior that it’s the obvious choice.
Congrats on what I gather was probably a lot of work, of all sorts. Enjoy.
Exactly. You’re so pathetically obviously Russian, it hurts.
It’s hilarious how you guys don’t understand how see through your “lies” are. It’s like a toddler hiding behind a curtain, their feet showing, thinking they’re hidden, while audibly giggling and shaking.
You can’t address Putin’s warcrimes.
Youre supporting, no, praising a delusional autocrat as a saint.
Enjoy your conscription! ;>
Sure, you’re Belgian, like Davel@lemmy.ml is American. ;>
Weird how you Putin loving totalitarians supporting crimes on humanity are never from Russia. Perhaps shamed of it? Rightfully so, what a ridiculous shitshow.
All you can do is cry “Nazi”. Like Zelensky is probably a nazi to you, and Putin is the rightful dear leader, right?
Do you disagree with Putin having a warrant out for him for grimes against humanity, or are you afraid of writing down what a mad, delusional narcissistic mess he is?

Oh and just as a history lesson, Finland was never Nazi. We weren’t even Axis. We weren’t allied, we were aligned. I know PIE languages can be challenging for you, but there is a difference. :)
