Yeah, I played through the whole dark brotherhood mission line and I didn't even know he was the same guy. Or maybe I did, I dunno; I don't remember much from the game. I can't imagine feeling anything special from it though; he's just one imaginary dude, no different from the other scores of imaginary dudes that I fought and killed in that game.

I shot him with an arrow. He never even noticed I was there. Also it was to his ugly face. NO ONE INSULTS TIGER SORA, and lives to tell the tale. In video games of course. Real life.... ya you'll get away scott free.
"You're going to die in here!"
I remember using that response right before killing him. Muahaha.

It felt really well-rounded killing him. He was the only character that knew of your humble and potentially degrading beginnings, and there's no way I'd let him tarnish my image as Champion!
(...and Master, and Hero, and Knight, and Prince of SI, and Arch-Mage, and master Assassin, and all the rest).

His taunts also varied on the gender of your character, although that may have just been for dark elves (dunmer).ArchAngelKira said:
but yes, it was a joy to kill him.
A related question though: has anyone done or bypassed this quest by simply getting arrested in the Imperial City, picking the lock on their cell door, then go and kill Valen Dreth before serving their time or escaping? I just want to know whether this method is possible.
no did not find it satisfying as he DIEED too quickly even tried the slow burn spell XD that does 5 fire damage per sec for 5 minutes even then he didnt die slowly enaugh for my satisfaction
I was to busy running from every guard in the building to do anything but quickly stab him in the face then keep running, curse my insistence on getting the extra stuff for not killing guards!
mmmmmmm yes so warm and tingly, damn now you made me want to relive that moment.
(also so enjoyed the house party murdering, especially without getting caught.)
funny thing was i was playing an orc stealth character, so i was big and muscled but went sneaky sneaky, big fucking axe in the back, all over the place, did get every bonus item i could get with him, was loads of fun.
think i killed Valen by punching him in the face repeatedly, but not before making him beg for mercy.

It was my favourite DB mission. So yeah, I definitely had to change my pants after that arrow sunk in his eye socket.FPSMadPaul said:
Meh, he was just another mark. The small pool of voice actors in Oblivion quite literally meant that if you'd killed one Dunmer you'd killed 'em all. Combine that with an Invisibility spell (to allow you to run through stealth sections) and a Charm spell of 100pts for 5 secs (to ensure that any guards that do see you will not only accept your yield but pay your bounty), and you'll probably be able to see why I thought the Dark Brotherhood missions were boring as hell.
i made a save just before i killed him....i think that makes my feelings towards him crystal clear *Evil laugh*
