    A number of the hirelings are either funny or likeable.

    Melina Cassell is perhaps the only one who's both. :) And she has an actual story as well.

    I quite liked the Aksel Rockbiter saga.

    The tale of a simple-minded man living with his mother, meeting a lovely lass who taught him better English, who got married, the lass being a fierce woman as well (Who probably beat his mom too), and which lead to them all living jappily ever after.

    It was a nice tale.

    When I started getting my first mails from these I read them, but after a couple of days it just struck me as 'this is stupid and pointless'. Mostly because the rewards were trash. Now they're all somewhere in the middle of the story. Is there a way to reset them or if I open them on a new character will they be a continuation of the ones I already have going?

    Aksel Rockbiter. He's my friend and he works hard to send me supplies.

    I liked Pacrooti a lot too but it's hard to get over his corruption at the hands of the crown crate mafia.

    I ain't got no time for readin'. There are quests to do.

    Their mails are just as good stories as the quests :tongue:

    "Here is your shipment. Today in the city, Pacrooti tried molasses for the first time. Surprisingly tasty and sweet. This one thinks he may try some other parts of the mole."

    "This one bought a horse that answers to commands. To make it stop, you shout 'Sweet roll!' To make it go, you shout 'Thank the Divines!' Pacrooti was riding and dozed off. When he awoke, the horse was racing towards a cliff. Pacrooti shouted 'Sweet roll!' and it stopped just in time. 'Whew,' Pacrooti said, 'Thank the Divines!' Pacrooti had horsemeat for dinner."

    "Today Pacrooti heard a voice say 'Khajiit! I need your help!' He turned around and saw a toad. The toad said 'I've been cursed by an evil mage. The curse will be broken if you kiss me. I will turn back into a beautiful maiden.' Pacrooti put the toad in his pocket. He can get a lot of gold for a talking frog."

    "Here is your shipment. Pacrooti has been pondering. Why do the humans insist on calling his people 'Cat Men?' This makes no sense. We do not walk on four legs and rub against them, begging for food. This one thinks he will begin calling them 'Monkey Men.'"

    "Do all Bretons think they are hilarious with their joking? One of these had a ball of yarn which he rolled on the ground, thinking Pacrooti would chase it like a common housecat. Pacrooti did bat it around for awhile, but only after he made the Breton eat it."

    "Pacrooti cannot reason with these Bosmer. He found a tree that was brown with yellow leaves, and still they hoot and hollar when he tries to cut it down. Why do they call it 'The Green Pact' if it pertains to trees of all colors? Elves are crazy. Or maybe just color-blind."

    "Lizard men are foul mouthed and inhospitable. They would not let Pacrooti cut any Hist wood, but he did gather some sap to make a tea. Now all the lizard men have giant heads and they dance with talking grasshoppers. Pacrooti does not recommend making tea from Hist Sap."

    "Here are your materials. A caravan guard told Pacrooti that mudcrabs are delicious when steamed. Pacrooti caught some, but they were not delicious. How does one eat such things? He cooked them for hours, but still they are hard like rocks. This one thinks he broke a tooth."

    "This one is forwarding your supplies from a tavern that serves fine mead. Pacrooti drank all night with a very nice werewolf. When dawn came, the werewolf transformed into a fat Breton with bad teeth. Pacrooti thinks it is wise to avoid getting bitten by a fat Breton."

    "This one has found an additional source of income! He buys Potions of Stamina at discount prices from the Baandari traders and sells them in the city to old men with young, energetic wives. They say these potions are like a cross-town wagon in Windhelm. A one-hour wait for a two-minute ride."

    Pacrooti for me,

    but I still can't figure which race was Nullini. Anyone knows ?

    During the afternoon of Loredas, 6 Sun’s Dawn 2e578 a big piece of Aetherius fell to Nirn. It was the first major piece of Aetherius to fall on Nirn in more than five hundred years. It scattered around the world as millions of shards. It was rapidly documented by Lady Cinnabar of Taneth in her pamphlet Aetherial Fragments that "... when three shards meet, they re-form into a silvery prism by unknown process and confer the power unlocked by the merger to a nearby being." The Order of the Black Worm, commonly known as the Worm Cult, reappeared in Tamriel shortly thereafter and some of its members are avidly searching said shards.
    In the last week of First Seed 2e579, an arcane explosion occurred in the Imperial City — a night of storms, and trembling terrain. They named it the "Soulburst". That day Emperor Varen Aquilarios disappeared without a trace. His wife, Clivia Tharn, ascended to the Ruby Throne as Empress Regent under the guidance of the Necromancer Mannimarco. Ushering a time of increased instability within the Empire of Cyrodiil which finally grew into “The Three Banners War”.

    It's been a long time since I've gotten them but I liked most apart from the guy who pounded capital letters into stone.

    I forgot that Melina Cassel was one of them! Wish I could go back and read her messages. Even though she no longer talks to me in the Reach.

    I voted "Other".

    Have turned it off. It was a bother to me to have to open all mails every day and delete them, for very rarely anything interesting as attachments. Maybe I was unlucky? I don't know, but it wasn't worth for me personally. o:)
    I'm out of my mind, feel free to leave a message... PC/NA
