Detailed Walkthrough

From Oblivion

Daedroths are powerful foes

The Fighter Quester says:

"Something's come up. I don't know who else could handle it but you, (player's first name). There's this bad critter in (dungeon), a Daedroth. Now, I ain't lying -- no one knows why it's there, but everyone wants it gone. For (random gold) gold, you think you could handle it, (player's first name)?"

Accept

The Fighter Quester goes on:

"Hey, alright, your funeral, (player's first name). Listen, knock off that Daedroth and get back here in (time limit) days for your reward. I don't know how long that thing's gonna be around, so you're gonna want to move your ass. And listen to me on this, (player's first name) -- go prepared for a hell of a fight."

Decline

The Fighter Quester answers:

"I don't blame you, (player's first name). I wouldn't wanna take on a Daedroth either."

Mean Green Monster

Prepare yourself before embarking on this quest, do not forget that you need mithril weapons or better to harm a daedroth. Travel to the dungeon the Fighter Quester mentioned and slay the creature. There may be more than one daedroth depending on your level and the dungeon. When the correct daedroth is slain, you will receive the following message:

The Daedroth is dead.

Reward

Return to the Fighter Quester after killing the Daedroth, and he will say:

"Hey, you're a better (player's race) than me, (player's first name). Daedroth-killer. I like it. Here's your gold."

There is a 50% chance he will also give you a random dungeon map, adding:

"Since you didn't even blink at offing a Daedroth, take this map to (random dungeon). Plenty of fun for a (player's guild rank) like you."
