Detailed Walkthrough[edit]

An Adoring Fan[edit]

Travel to the camp south of Ivarstead. It can be found just across the bridge south of Ivarstead, traveling southeast up the nearby hill. It is between Geirmund's Hall and Honeystrand Cave. Here you can find and loot the body of an Arena Fan to obtain the Arena Fan's Note, as well as a copy of The Crimson Dirks, v8. The book tells the tale of Urgnok, a former member of a gang of outlaws known as the Crimson Dirks, who left his life of crime and ascended to the rank of Bloodletter in the Imperial City Arena before being forced to flee north to Skyrim.

The quest will start upon reading the fan's note which reveals that the fan attempted to meet with this ex-combatant before his untimely death. Urgnok is apparently fighting in the local underground pits and didn't take kindly to being tracked down. The note states that he was recently spotted living at the Ruins of Bthalft, a bandit camp to the south.

Travel to Bthalft and you will find Urgnok living among the bandits. He will be easy to spot due to his full set of Dwarven Mail armor. Urgnok is hostile and will attack you on sight; kill him and take his armor to complete the quest. Once the quest is complete, Dwarven Mail items will begin to appear in leveled lists, meaning you will begin to find it as random loot or being worn by enemies.

Notes[edit]

  • Dwarven Mail uses the same model as Dwarven armor in Blades.
  • This is the heaviest Light Armor in the game.
  • The Ruins of Bthalft are also known as the location of the Aetherium Forge.

Bugs[edit]

  • The Arena Fan's corpse may despawn if you take too long to head to his camp. ?
  • This quest may stop the Jarl of Falkreath from talking to you when you receive his letter. ?

  • The following empty quest stages were omitted from the table: 50, 60, 70, 80, 90.
Notes
  • Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the Radiant Quest system, and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.
  • Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
  • Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
  • If an entry is marked as "Finishes Quest" it means the quest disappears from the Active Quest list, but you may still receive new entries for that quest.
  • On the PC, it is possible to use the console to advance through the quest by entering setstage ccBGSSSE062_Quest, ccBGSSSE062_MiscQuest stage, where stage is the number of the stage you wish to complete. It is not possible to un-complete (i.e. go back) quest stages, but it is possible to clear all stages of the quest using resetquest ccBGSSSE062_Quest, ccBGSSSE062_MiscQuest.
