Ilav Dralgoner

Ilav Dralgoner, a disillusioned Imperial priest, is one of the refugees of Kvatch. He is found just north of the refugee camp, wandering around aimlessly.

He wears some grey robes and carries a torch and some gold. He wanders barefoot around the bottom of the road leading up to Kvatch, never even eating or sleeping.

All of the spells that Dralgoner can cast are level-dependent. Specifically, he can cast a random-leveled major Restoration spell and a standard leveled set of major Priest spells (always strongest for his skill level).

Dialogue[edit]

When you approach him, it becomes apparent he has lost his faith:

"Hope is gone. The Imperial line is dead. The Covenant is broken. The Enemy has won."

When asked about the Covenant, Ilav will repeat:

Covenant
"The Imperial line is dead, and the gods have forsaken us. Where is our blessing? Where is our protection? Where are our gods? The Enemy triumphs, and we die alone."

He will also tell you about the Enemy, revealing a bit of insight:

Enemy
"Lord Dagon is the Enemy. He is the Prince of Destruction, and the Daedra are his servants. The Chapel is cast down, and the faithful... my friends... all dead. The Enemy has won, and we are destroyed."

On subsequent meetings, the sad priest will greet you with:

"Why have our gods forsaken us?"

Notes[edit]

  • In an in-universe letter penned by Lead Designer Ken Rolston, it was revealed that Caius Cosades once trained as a novice under Father Ilav and was concerned for his health following the sack of Kvatch.
  • Ilav was at one point meant to play a role in the Main Quest. There's an unused topic that still bears his name, although there is no related dialogue. Another topic internally known as DivineGuidanceIlav reads "Ilva [sic] Dralgoner sent me." Based on this, it would seem that Father Ilav could've once directed you to head to the chapel, and based on other unused topics with the same Divine Guidance prefix, he likely would've asked you to communicate directly with Akatosh.
