Oblivion talk:Minerva

Lucien Appearing in the Inn

I've reinstated the comment that Lucien will not appear in the Inn of Ill Omen. The scripting is unambiguous about this - it clearly checks that the player is not in the "InnIllOmen" cell. I've just checked it myself and couldn't get Lucien to appear when I slept in either bed. As soon as I slept in the Faregyl Inn he appeared. Given all this, plus previous players' comments I'm putting Brian Sexton's down as a glitch. –Rpeh^{•T•C•E•} 05:06, 15 November 2008 (EST)

Are you sure that scripting does not prevent Lucien Lachance from being at the Inn of Ill Omen only under certain conditions or only allow him there under certain conditions? I just experimented with some earlier saved games and while I could not get him to show up there after my first murder (using Minerva as my first victim), I *CAN* get him to show up there after killing Rufio for the "A Knife in the Dark" quest. Whether I kill Rufio directly or cast Touch of Rage and let others do it and whether I rent a room or just use Rufio's bed, Lucien Lachance shows up then. I would offer a screen shot if I could actually find one after Oblivion says it has saved one. - Brian Sexton 20:03, 15 November 2008 (EST)

He'll show up in the inn after killing Rufio - you can even sleep in the bed next to Rufio's corpse, and will amusingly give his usual dialogue "So, the deed is done. How do I know this?" - but that's not what the paragaraph is taking about. The point with Minerva is that she's a decent target for joining the Dark Brotherhood except that you have to sleep elsewhere to make Lucien appear. –Rpeh^{•T•C•E•} 02:04, 16 November 2008 (EST)
