My favorite part of this quest was being beseeched by a ghost talking all eerily and then asking him about the preacher in Anvil and causing him to switch to a normal NPC voice The jokes write themselves in this game

Oblivion being Oblivion. Also great when you talk to beggers and they are all "feed me kids" or "buy me shoes", you ask for rumors, and you get Wes Johnson doing his generic male imperial voice talking about the fact that Dar-Ma has dissappeared or that the someone has stolen an elder scroll

Oblivion feels like my second home. I'm so happy I found someone new making new oblivion content!

i found the watchman the other day also why does fists work on ghosts when normal weapons don't?

@ABardsBallad

It’s a really neat thing to happen across! And I found out the other day that fists work! Likely if your a hand to hand user, there’s no enchanted weapons for it so to make it balanced they had to make bare fists work!

If i had to guess or theorize, normal weapons dont work very well due to not having any magic in them trying to interact with a magical being, the player has some migica value by default and thus there flesh would have some

@@qvcybe ghosts have a 100% resistance to normal weapons, and fists aren't categorized as normal weapons. And neither are silver, daedric and dremora weapons, bound weapons, enchanted weapons, and poisoned weapons. Okay, ghosts are also immune to poison, but a poisoned weapon isn't a "normal weapon" anymore and will damage ghosts. And you can always use a spell to convince the ghost that it is not immune to poison.

There are no real "heroes" in this quest. Gable's no hero for obvious reasons, but the Captain was an incompetent moron who deliberately sailed out in bad weather, _over the objections of his crew,_ when he easily could've stayed at harbor for a while. I've always had a similar thought process; even if Gable and his cronies hadn't betrayed the Captain and taken over the ship, the Captain's stupidity would've gotten everyone killed, anyway. There really wasn't a winning option here (especially as Gable went on to make the exact same mistake). Blakely is the closest thing to a hero we have in this story, but even then, he seemed to be just as short-sighted and inept as the Captain. As for why we don't see the Captain's ghost in the Emma May itself? I've always assumed the Captain survived the initial wreck, only to be killed by the Cadlew Chapel necromancers. See, Cadlew Chapel is just North of the Mouth of the Panther, and from the outside, it looks like an ordinary church. So, it stands to reason that the Captain, having barely survived a shipwreck, would leave to go look for help, see a church off in the distance, and head inside, only to run afoul of the necromancers holed up within. If you go into Cadlew Chapel in-game, there's the body of a freshly-killed treasure hunter, along with a number of decaying bodies strewn about. My theory's always been that one of those decaying corpses is the unfortunate Captain; especially as these events took place at least 12 years ago, according to the Emma May's logbook.

Thank you for the kind words! It’s been a crazy first month! I’m really excited to see where it ends up!

i'd say possibly the captains remains are not there, because he wasn't kept on the ship, probably he was thrown over board or even keelhauled right after the mutiny (as pirates would often do to set an example) the captain and blakely were good people, but at least blakely was an innocent victim, in fact, i do believe they both are the very reason the crew is bound to the ship in death, as they were in life.. cursed by the very deed which cost them everything .. hint: the irony... fort irony.. ;) after all it would explain a lot even if the captain isn't on the ship, he did sorta... "go down with his ship" as is tradition. a captain always goes down with his ship. in this case it would be in a very... literal sense ..seing as the ship kinda did go down too.. you understand im sure

ngl, i always thought the tavern owner was the captain, which is why hes so quick to dismiss the name out of guilt.

Every time I play this quest, the box is empty 😅

how did anyone die in this? the ship is resting on the shore and wasnt ripped to shreds and Cyrodiil is not that Hostile to live. i think the mayority of the crew survived forgot about Grantham and left mostlikly Hanging the Munitneer and his Leutnants and Grantham Still alive but slowly dieing cursed the Munitneers.

Would of been nice, if you could tell her what happened to her father. After completing this fun little quest. But sadly that was overlooked. (if she really is his daughter that is. I like to think she is though.)

12:35 'with some spellcasting and enchanted weapon use' *uses fists* :P The thing with Angelie might mean something, but no clues, really. I still don't understand how races work, when both parents of a child aren't the same race, as Blakeley was Breton and Angelie is a Redguard. Still, Angelie might not really be his daughter, but like I said, there just aren't enough clues, what makes it an open book for the player to theorize.

Apparently the mother’s race dictates the child’s appearance, that might not be a concrete thing though. Also with unique dialogue options she says some things that line up with her being his daughter, but your right it’s not 100%

@@ABardsBallad From all that I know (and double-checked before I wrote the comment, since english is not my native language), the term "a force to be reckoned with" means "someone not to mess with / someone to keep an eye on etc." because they are strong / powerful. If someone is described as NOT being a force to be reckoned with, that means he's weak, unimportant, not worth your attention etc. The version of "not a force to be reckoned with" in the sense of "not a force to be trifled / messed around / etc. with" seems to be exceedingly rare. Very frustrating when one expression can mean two polar opposite things. :D

Wonder if bethesda was inspired to create this quest, because the microphone was broken. 😂
