Deeja is an Argonian assassin in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. Alongside her brother, Jaree-Ra, she leads a criminal gang known as the Blackblood Marauders. She can be found at the docks of the East Empire Company Warehouse near Solitude.
Background[]
- "You want knives? You want them in your belly? No? Then you stop talking to Deeja."
- ―Deeja[src]
Deeja is shown to be very antisocial, and attempts to converse with her prior to "Lights Out!" will result in her telling the Dragonborn to back off, and later she will threaten them to stop trying to talk to her. Deeja will only say to the Dragonborn that they must speak with her egg-brother (Jaree-Ra).
Interactions[]
Lights Out![]
After the Dragonborn has put out the fire in the Solitude Lighthouse, Deeja can be found inside the Wreck of the Icerunner. When Jaree-Ra refers the Dragonborn to Deeja for their reward for putting out the lighthouse fire, she tells the Dragonborn that the loot has been moved and that the Dragonborn was just "useful to the Blackbloods." The Dragonborn is then forced to kill her to retrieve the Note from Jaree-Ra.
Dialogue[]
Lights Out![]
"My brother told me you were coming. I'm supposed to give you what you've earned."
- So we're splitting the loot, then? "Ha! I'm afraid the loot's already been moved. You've been useful to the Blackbloods, though. You've earned a quick death."
Conversations[]
- Greta
Greta: "Got any work?" or "I ain't begging. I just need a job. Anything." Deeja: "Shoo! Go away! You get nothing from me." or "You bother me again, maybe you will not walk away. Understand?"
- Jaree-ra and Gulum-Ei
Jaree-Ra: "My contact, she says Hammerfell steel is much desired by certain parties." Gulum-Ei: "I know of a ship coming in from Hammerfell. Some cargo might get "lost"..." Deeja: "Why should we settle for half a fin when we could just take the whole whale?" Jaree-Ra: "Patience, sister. Patience."
Quotes[]
- "You, talk to egg-brothers. Deeja has no words for you."
- "You have no knowledge of who you speak to. Go away."
Trivia[]
- According to the Creation Kit, Deeja is the sister of not only Jaree-Ra, but to Gulum-Ei.
- If the Dragonborn kills her with the Ebony Blade, she will count as a "friend" and contribute to upgrading the blade.
