Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. The game opens with the shocking execution of a prisoner in the town of Helgen. Believe it or not, something worse happens next. What is it?

Answer: A dragon attacks the town

Your character starts out as someone who was next in line to be executed. However, the dragon attack causes the soldiers to lose track of you, and you get a chance to run away. You may choose the identity of your character from one of several types (Orcs, Nords, etc.) If you escape the town, you then begin your travels as a free individual.

Answer: You gain health or stamina points

Fruits and vegetables are the most common foods found in storage cases. In people's houses, you may also see poultry, salmon or venison, among other items. If you hover over an item and it says "Take" or "Harvest," you may take the item without penalty. However, if the word "Steal" appears in red, you are committing a crime, and risk arrest if someone sees you.

3. Which of the following types of characters does not exist in the game?

Answer: Triffids, angry plants

"The Day of the Triffids" was a novel written by John Wyndham in 1951. It was made into a movie in 1962, and again in 1981; in the story, mutant plants attack people. These characters do not appear in "Skyrim". All the others do. There are a total of ten playable races in Skyrim. Other groups and species may appear, but you cannot use one of them as your own character.

4. When a character dies, you may use the "Search" function to see what they had with them. Which of the following can you find if you search a dead dragon?

Answer: Scales and bones

Most animals killed in Skyrim will produce meat or other parts you can claim. Dragons yield scales and bones, as well as gold. You may see arrows stuck in them if they were attacked by an archer. However, they don't give milk, and you can't eat dragon meat.

5. Skyrim is divided into a number of regions, called holds. What is the title of the head of government in a hold?

Answer: Jarl

"Jarl" is pronounced "yarl," and is similar to the word "earl". There is a High King of the country as well. The jarls answer to him.

Answer: A shield called Spellbreaker

In "The Only Cure", you bring plants and herbs to a Khajit named Kesh the Clean. He makes incense, which enables you to contact a deity called Peyrite. You then head to a place called Bthardamz, where a mage named Orchendor dwells in the depths. If you beat him and go back to meet Kesh, you receive Spellbreaker. This shield is highly effective against blasts of magic.

7. Which of the following can you buy in the game?

Answer: A horse

Horses can be bought at the stables outside the hold capitals. You may also steal a horse- but beware, if you are seen, the real owner may attack you.

8. Outside the city of Solitude, there is a large port. The headquarters of a particular agency is located there. What is it called?

Answer: The East Empire Company Warehouse

This area is marked on your map by an anchor. The interior contains a marina and storage areas, and is patrolled by guards. Be careful, as you may be stopped or arrested if caught here at the wrong time.

9. Potions appear throughout the game, and may be used to increase your strength, health and other functions. What skill do you need to improve in order to make better potions?

Answer: Alchemy

There are alchemist's tables scattered all over Skyrim. You may use these tables for free. Potions may come in handy during a difficult battle. Potions may also be sold for cash in some stores.

10. What is the name of the great dragon you must defeat in order to free the land from his terrible power?

Answer: Alduin

To find him, you must enter the mystical realm of Sovngarde. There, you will meet heroes who have departed this life. If you defeat Alduin, the so-called 'main quest line' is complete, but there are many side quests, dozens of achievements to be earned, and a beautiful landscape which may still be explored. Enjoy!
