Skyrim talk:Pumpkin

Fallout 3 Reference

I believe this fox's name might be a reference to a friendly caged molerat of the same name from Fallout 3. -69.215.15.25 03:09, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

Ask on the Easter Eggs page. You may need more specific details for it to be accepted, but possibly not, as they are both Bethesda. The Silencer has spoken^Talk 03:22, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

Furthermore, there is also a dog in Oblivion with the name Pumpkin, which predates Fallout. Wolok gro-Barok 15:12, 7 May 2012 (UTC)

Necromancy Faction

By the time I found Pumpkin, he was dead next to his cage with my follower's arrow in him. In the cage was an ash pile that could be searched for a chicken breast. Someone reanimated the chicken.... Lottery Discountz 00:40, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

Update after multiple playthroughs of the scene to go birdwatching: It was always Spellsword's Chicken, never Pumpkin's Chicken. Lottery Discountz 12:00, 7 June 2012 (UTC)

Non-aggressive Pumpkin

During my last playthrough of Skyrim I found Pumpkin outside his cage, just standing there non-aggressive. I had killed the two nearby spellswords with archery from afar. I regret I just killed Pumpkin anyway, as it would have been interesting to see if he had followed peacefully, if he would have turned aggressive later and why. —MortenOSlash (talk) 17:05, 14 November 2012 (GMT)

He is actually flagged as unaggressive in the game data, but as helping allies. So i guess, it is the spellswords attacking that may turn him aggressive. --Alfwyn (talk) 17:44, 14 November 2012 (GMT)

So as long as he does not see the player attacking his allies, he will remain non-aggressive? —MortenOSlash (talk) 17:47, 14 November 2012 (GMT)

I'd guess it would be as long as his allies don't attack the player, but exactly how the assistance value works isn't documented yet, I think. --Alfwyn (talk) 18:02, 14 November 2012 (GMT)

Then I conclude the current text on Pumpkin was not correct, so I ventured to adjust it a bit. —MortenOSlash (talk) 18:40, 14 November 2012 (GMT)

very odd indeed

Pumpkin spawned outside the cage, then when I snuck up using very powerful sneak boots (enemies almost never find me with these unless I walk into them) and unlocked it anyways he/she started following me. Then he/she fled when I stood up to mine the nearby iron ore vein, and is now running around like a normal fox in the cave.--Playerseekingbugs (talk) 22:17, 9 February 2013 (GMT)

It appears the bandits killed him/her like he/she was just a regular fox invading their territory.--Playerseekingbugs (talk) 22:35, 9 February 2013 (GMT)
