The first guy in line for execution was the only one who could reasonably have interrupted (if anyone behind him had said hurry up, we could all agree that would be whack) and he took the moment to tell the Empire that he didnt need their false humility and faux generosity.

I’ve got a sleeper pick for the bottom half of the list, though I don’t know who I’d remove. Yamarz. The Orc Chief of Largashbur. Think about it: First, the Dragonborn discovers Largashbur, and likely, saves the Orc settlement from a giant. At worst, the Dragonborn helps significantly. After that, the Dragonborn goes on a fetch quest to get the stuff to summon Malacath. Malacath, a Daedric Prince who has clearly seen everything that has been unfolding, is summoned and commands Yamarz to accompany the Dragonborn to Fallowstone Cave to slay a giant and retrieve Shagrol’s Warhammer. The Dragonborn can basically solo that giant, and another one found on the way to the Warhammer, as well as some bears. Only after that does Yamarz find his bollocks and, for whatever reason, decides he can beat the Dragonborn one on one as he doesn’t want the tribe to know the Dragonborn was responsible for killing the giant. That makes Yamarz an idiot because, while he’s scared of the giants, he thinks he can beat someone capable of easily solo’ing them. Worse than, even if Yamarz had won the fight against the Dragonborn (not a chance), Malacath would have still known that Yamarz didn’t kill the giant.

That was actually a thing, mostly in late medieval cities. The thief would grab the goods from the mark, secretly palm the goods to a bagman and run off. If the city guard catches the thief, he has no stolen goods on him, he might not be arrested. But if the bagman was caught, there was a common excuse of "I was an innocent bystander, threatened to hold these goods, honest" Which is unlikely because the whole point is palming the goods off is meant to be done fast and secret, which isn't possible if you have to talk to the bagman.

I really don't get the 'Ulfric is a Thalmor agent' argument. Like... So is Tullius? The empire has essentially been puppeted by the Thalmor. Ulfric is advantagous for the Thalmor as long as the war rages on. If he wins, they lose all their assets in Skyrim and have another country that's openly hostile to the dominion. It's not hard to see that the empire is dying, it lost Black Marsh (which it never really controlled), Hammerfell, Morrowind, the entire Aldmerri dominion and half Skyrim. Oh and a huge region between Skyrim and High Rock (the reach). The empire is already dying. If however, it were to be attacked again I am fairly certain that Skyrim wouldn't hesitate for a second to join. Same for Hammerfell.

To my understanding, the reasoning behind that theory boil down to these four points: 1. Thalmor dossier. 2. Ulfric was captured and tortured by Thalmor during the Great War, after which he was set free and labeled as an "asset". 3.Thalmor began their crackdown on Skyrim's Talos worship directly because of Ulfric's explicit demands of free worship during the Markarth incident. 4. Ulfric will never mount an attack on the Thalmor Embassy. For the record I don't think he's a spy for the Thalmor. I just think he's a bitter and stupid rable-rouser.

@@JJusmi I much prefer the way simpler explanation. War in Skyrim means a weakened empire, a weakened empire is good for the Dominion. I prefer the Stormcloaks not entirely because I believe they're the best of Skyrim but a multitude of reasons. - The imperial armor has a better gold to weight ratio - Stormcloak armor looks better for the small scale battles imo - Ulfric might work in the Thalmor interest but so does Tullius - The underdog rebellion feeling is just cool and taking cities feels cool. - I like Talos - I'm not thàt against removing Balgruuf - They don't try to behead me - It's implied that they don't torture folks - I don't like how so many people diminisch the stormcloaks to just racists - the racism makes a surprising lot of sense For the racism part, I want to explain myself. The Stormcloaks provinces are all next to Morrowind. They are experiencing actual migration. The Reach and Eastmarsh have the most nonhumans by far. The red mountain is something they actively experienced. Argonians not being allowed in Windhelm is true, but 100% of the Argonians who live in the cities are from Stormcloak territory and in Riften they're treated pretty aight (same for the Dunmer). As for the Dunmer. They're descriminated against in Windhelm, yes 100%, but have you played Morrowind? Goddamn the Dunmer are *ssholes (+ they're Demon worshippers). Everyone hates the Altmer. Bosmer are cannibals. Kajijt are hated even by the imperials. Reachmen are well... insane. And the empire isn't the best either. (Redguards Argonians and Orcs are cool though)

He knew Ulfric was likely to attack WR first which is why he allowed Talos worship in WR to keep the people's loyalty.

A fact to consider for Ulfirc is the dossier the Thalmor has on him. He was convinced under interrogation that information coerced from him led to the Empire losing the capital, only to be allowed to escape. While not working with the Thalmor directly, the Thalmor have been secretly supporting his rebellion as a proxy war to more easily subjugate the Empire by only doing enough for the civil war to become stagnant. Ulfric, for his part, blames himself for losing the imperial capital, and has convinced himself that he alone can set right the wrongs of the past by becoming High King on an independent Skyrim. Does this make him even more idiotic? It certainly doesn’t help make Ulfric look better.

Worth noting that Riverwood probably doesn’t get guards until you meet with Balgruuf because it seems to technically be under the jurisdiction of Falkreath and nobody in Falkreath (or Skyrim) is really aware of the dragons until the run-in at the Whiterun tower, which is around when Balgruuf sends the guards to Riverwood at the request of either Gerdur or Alvor (depending on who you followed).

Mercer Frey and Thonar aren't really that dumb. Mercer had the guild under his thumb and Karliah constantly looking over her shoulder, he also correctly identified the Dragonborn as the only thorn in his side that he didn't account for. The fatal mistake he made was thinking Karliah's greed for his death would win over justice for Gaius, which was his one flaw: Greed. His greed eventually spelled his downfall and dying in his true heist is the icing on the cake. Also Nocturnal doesn't really care that much, she didn't even kill Dereloth for stealing the cowl and for a thief anonymity is actually a huge boon. Thonar is also smart for imprisoning Madanach, keeping an enemy leader in hand's reach of an execution, is a good deterrent against rogue threats like the Forsworn. Unlike other threats, Forsworn leadership can easily be replaced, yet Madanach's leadership is superb and it's shown abundantly clear Markarth is actually safer because the Forsworn have to tread carefully, or they lose a leader worth their salt. By having Madanach alive, they can push for negotiation or delays, whilst maintaining authority in The Reach. The big flaw comes from how they just shoved all the Forsworn together, allowing them to gather strength much more easily. Also, unlike Thonar, Madanach is more charismatic and down to earth when you deal with him, which makes it obvious that most non-forsworn locked up with him would most definitely support him.

Ulfric started the rebellion after he basically reconquered Markarth for the Empire after it was taken by the Forsworn himself, was imprisoned by the Thalmor as a result, and was tortured for years, missing his father's funeral as a result, only to come out and see the Empire effectively bending the knee to the Thalmor. From his perspective, the Empire betrayed him, and every single soldier who ever served them. He even says as much when speaking to Galmar the first time you enter his castle. He asks Galmar why he fights, to which Galmar replies by saying that he fights so Ulfric can rule. Ulfric replies, regardless of whether or not you can be seen, to a man who would already do anything for him, by saying that he fights for his men, his home, his people, and his religion. Ulfric truly does deeply care for Skyrim. He's an extremely powerful warrior, and a very competent general. If he had an advisor less idiotic than fucking GALMAR, he'd genuinely have been able to kick Tulius out of Skyrim without the Dragonborn.
