Skyrim:Easter Eggs/Archives
This is a list of archived proposals for the Skyrim Easter Eggs page that were once documented on its talk page and have since been moved into its archives. Due to multiple conversations proposing the same Easter Eggs, it is recommended that you search for the suggestion here before bringing it up in case it was already shot down for being too generic, a reference to something else, or not an Easter Egg at all. Please do not edit the pages below; they are archives of previous conversations. If you have something substantial to add to one of the discussions, please bring it up in a new section here. Dawnguard and Hearthfire Easter Eggs are included here, but there are separate archives (1, 2, 3) for Dragonborn Easter Eggs.
In order to quickly search for something in particular, hold Ctrl
and type F
to bring up a search bar (Cmd
and F
for Macs).
The links listed below retain their original header and thus the spelling or grammar should not be altered.
