Beggars (Oblivion)


 * If you are looking for the book "Beggar", see Beggar (Book)

Beggars are located throughout Cyrodiil. They act as the eyes for the Thieves Guild and sometimes have valuable information about quests; though they are often dishonest if you do not pay them respect with a few septims. They can tell you how to join the Thieves guild if you raise their disposition to 70. While talking to beggars, you will have the option to give them a Septim. This raises their disposition by one point.

Beggars' bedrolls and foodbags can often be found around the edges of the major cities of Cyrodiil, usually near city walls or behind buildings. Sometimes they are filled with gold, and if you aren't part of the Thieves Guild, you can steal it. It is a crime, so make sure no guards are around.

They are often considered convenient prey for players infected with Vampirism.

If you are a member of the Thieves Guild, you are not permitted to kill or steal from any of the beggars as? they are all under the protection of the Gray Fox. Remember, feeding on NPCs is considered a crime, so vampires who are Thieves Guild members should avoid feeding on beggars.

Every minor city has two beggars each, apart from Kvatch, which has only one. Imperial City has one beggar per district, excluding the Green Emperor Way.

Trivia
In the quest 'A Brotherhood Betrayed ' reference is made to two more beggars who supposedly lived in Bruma before being killed, along with another that can be found dead in Bradon Lirrian's basement.

Beggars often have two voice types. This can be heard by talking to one and then giving him/her a septim.

Often they will say there children are starving, even though there are no children.

Beggars are the only NPCs that can give a player a disease.
