Torture Victim

Torture Victim's are 4 friendly NPC's that can be find in the Dawnstar Sanctuary in the Torture Chamber that can be bought with Delvin in Riften.

Uses

 * If you slash and hack on these victims long enough they will eventually tell you were they hide a large stash of money (1000-2000 Septim ). Within various hollowed out rocks and stumps.
 * If you let them live and don't kill them they can be used to level your skills, as they cannot fight back and are prone to anything you do to them. Simply use a heal other spell and alternate to some form of attack and your skills slowly raise. (This doesn't always work, as other Dark Brotherhood members will attack them once you do)
 * (If the victims are killed, they are NOT replaced with new ones, therefore only supplying one treasure location per victim.)
 * They'll tell you where their treasure is if you just talk to them long enough, too.

Glitch

 * If you use the Thu'um "Ice Form" on a Torture Victim then they will freeze solid and pop off the wall. When they defrost they will get up and stand around asking you to let them go free, regardless of the fact they no longer are attached to the wall.
