- "You've got yourself a deal, idiot. Now I can sell it for 5 times its worth."
- ―M'raaj-Dar[src]
M'raaj-Dar is a Khajiit merchant in the Cheydinhal Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary. He sells a variety of items, including some unique enchanted weapons and poisoned apples, and is also a spell merchant with unique Dark Brotherhood-themed spells. He is notable for his instant and great dislike of the Hero of Kvatch, which he eventually renounces at the end of his life.
Personality[]
M'raaj-Dar dislikes the Hero when they first join the Dark Brotherhood and talks aggressively to them. Unless playing as a Khajiit, M'raaj-Dar will call the Hero a "foul-smelling ape." He refers to a Khajiit Hero as a "house cat" and "a disgrace to Elsweyr."
Upon beginning The Purification, he says he likes the Hero for all that they have done in the Dark Brotherhood and ascending in rank proves this. M'raaj-Dar also would gladly be their friend. He offers to do a "fresh start" and is now polite and friendly. Unfortunately, completing the Purification requires the Hero to kill him.

Dialogue[]
| Show: Welcome to the Family |
|---|
| In the Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary:
"If it isn't the newest member of the family. Let's get one thing straight -- the Tenets prevent me from killing you. But I don't have to like you. I'll sell you equipment, but only because Ocheeva is making me. This family doesn't need any... outsiders." (If approached again: "You again? I thought I'd made it clear I'm not looking for a friend. If you're here to buy or sell something, get on with it already!")
"Foul-smelling ape..." (If the Hero is a Khajiit: "Away from me, housecat! Look at that fur, what a disgrace!") |
| Show: The Purification |
|---|
| In the Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary:
"Ah, there you are! Look... I've been thinking, and... Well... I guess I just want to say I'm sorry for the way I've treated you in the past. I mean, look at you! The things you've accomplished! You've obviously proven yourself a valuable member of this Sanctuary. So let's start over, shall we? I know from now on, you and I are going to be great friends! Now, is there something you'd like to buy or sell?" (If approached again: "Hey, there's my new pal! So what can I do for you? Need some items? Or maybe you're ready to unload something? Whatever you need!")
"Until we meet again, my dear friend!" |
Trivia[]
- M'raaj-Dar cannot be invested in even if the Hero has the required mercantile skill.
- He will not buy stolen items.
- After completing the Dark Brotherhood questline, a female Dark Brotherhood Murderer will take M'raaj-Dar's place and sell his wares and spells, though she will not sell the unique items that M'raaj-Dar sold.
- If asked for rumors before the Purification quest, he will insult the Hero by stating "a whelp that doesn't even deserve to lick his boots," similar to Owyn.
- After exiting dialogue, he will call the Hero a "Foul-smelling ape" even if they are an Argonian.
