Considering I play a Redguard werewolf who takes Pragmatism to its logical course. I.E If you're not using something or never use it, it's mine and I'll need it more. If I'm in a tomb or barrow, everything I can take, including gold and gems are mine. The dead don't need jewels or gold of any kind because they're DEAD. And I take every opportunity to steal things that people won't miss or can get more of, such as Ebony Ingots from that one Orc Settlement, they HAVE A mine that looks to be quite prosperous, they won't miss anything they can't replace. I tend to get annoyed and at other times very interested in the Talos Preacher,he is a fascinating character whose diatribes never cease, so I usually spend at least one minute every time I go to Whiterun to listen to him.
My character tries to stay on everyone's good side unless A. He doesn't like them. Or B. They have something he needs and would want to take. He also has a tendency to look at people in shock when they say something he doesn't expect or yell at him, such as that Thalmer creep in Markath going," It's always good to see you my friend." my Redguard just took a minute to stare at him in confusion for a bit, before turning around and leaving him be.

That'll get you a bigger one!
edit: by "link" i mean image source... it's 1 am, cut me some slack
Hail Talos dudes! Death to the Thalmor!
Hey if anything I almost joined him in the Preaching. My only gripe with Skyirim was the lack of options regarding open war against the Thalmor. The Rebels were just unreasonable and bloodthirsty from my point of view and the Empire's completely beaten.

I've never wanted to kill the preacher, heck, he's a lot more sane then some of the other inhabitants of Skyrim.
Now that's a sight that makes true Nords cry with manly joy!CrazyJew said:

Because this was literally the first character I rolled on Skyrim..... And he had been there the whole time, so it wouldn't make canonical sense for him to vanish..... This way, if a guard decides to do some investigative work, they will simply think he died of a heart attack (by heart attack I mean stabbed in the heart) while praying before bed. (he actually does look like he is kneeling over his bed praying to, some god.... couldn't be bothered to guess which one...)Cazza said:
Of course not! He speaks of Talos! If I killed him, then we would all be WRITHING IN THE FILTH OF OUR OWN CORRUPTION!
Funnily enough, I encountered a real-life Heimskir. At my university the Christchurch Wizard (a well-known, 'real-life' wizard in New Zealand) comes in every day to rant in front of the library. I haven't listened to him, but passing him I've heard him shout things like "Oedipus complex!" and "Freud!" and also once "Everyone is stupider than you!"
Needless to say, I wasn't met with the urge to punch him in the face. It's wonderful background noise, both in-game and in real life.

I only killed him with my vampire character, as he was betrayed by his religion, he probably would have been more than annoyed at his preaching. I hid on the waterfall above town and cast a spell that sent him into a mad rage, attacking those around him. Seeing him die at the hands of others is much more satisfying for a twisted mind such as his.
I've been putting off buying the game until either a GOTYE came out or they stopped making expansions. I'll wait till July or maybe christmas, then I'll finally play it. I still haven't gotten around to the Oblivion expansions yet. The pile of games I already have but haven't gotten around to yet is pretty massive because I keep going back & playing old favorites.
Yup, killed him on only one character that spent a lot of time running around whiterun. Waiting until night when he happened to be the only one around, and shot an arrow in his back. No one said a word about him missing the next morning. Kinda sad, actually...i'll never forget you, Annoying Talos Guy, if only for how much i hate you.
While he annoys the crap out of me, I've never killed him...at least not yet.
On a side note, I was trying to find a sniper's perch in Riften to take out a mark and this female khajiit, the one who hisses at you and tells you to go away (I forget her name), kept running up to me, thus breaking my sneak. In the end I chopped her head off, which did the trick.

Dude Heimskr is amazing how could you kill him? He's the best part of Whiterun. Like you have Belethor the slavery joke guy and all around awful person, Nazeem the smugness factory (fitting that the key he carries does not have a corresponding building), and Farengar the dweeby magic nerd. Heimskr is an island of hilarity in an ocean of idiots.
