Deep-In-His-Cups

Deep-In-His-Cups is a male Argonian in who approaches the Dragonborn in a random encounter, during, or after completing the "A Night to Remember" quest.

Interactions
He demands 10,000, telling the Dragonborn that during their night of binge drinking, Sam Guevenne and the Dragonborn dared him to enter a Bandit Camp and steal a hat, for which he would be paid 10,000.

To resolve the issue, the Dragonborn can either pay the 10,000, talk him down to 750 (with Speech), intimidate him, or simply admit to not having the money (after which he will turn hostile and attack for allegedly sending him to the Bandit Camp to die).

The hat itself—which can be received by paying, pickpocketing or looting him—is worth 1.

Behind the scenes

 * It is possible to encounter him more than once, even after he becomes hostile and is killed by the player.
 * Any gold you pay him will be available in his inventory for looting or pickpocketing.
 * When followed from his initial encounter (if protected and prevented from death along the way) he will become stuck in a loop between Steamcrag Camp & Narzulbur.
 * His name, Deep-In-His-Cups, points to his tendency to drink heavily, which is why he is involved in the debauchery quest.
 * If you reveal you don't have the money for him, and he becomes hostile, sheathing your weapon can cause him to become neutral and walk away, saying "you are not worth it." (Tested after speech check on and )
 * He is similar to the Madwoman and Sigar in that they are all random encounters which occur some time after completing a Daedric quest.
 * If you encounter him and the dialogue is initiated, and is attacked by an animal such as a wolf, after it is defeated, he can become hostile to the player regardless if anything was said.
