Template:SkyrimNPCs Sorex Vinius is a male Imperial that lives in Solitude. He has a sister, and can be found in the local inn. He admits that he dislikes Roggvir and that as a young man had feelings for Vivienne Onis.

Marriage

Sorex Vinius is an NPC the player is able to marry. If in possession of the Amulet of Mara he will task the hero with delivering rum to Falk Firebeard at the Blue Palace. For completion you will receive 600 septims and upon returning to the inn and speaking to Sorex an additional time, while wearing the Amulet of Mara he will ask if you are interested in marriage. If you choose to live with Vinius, the Winking Skeever will become your new home.

Although he can be seen giving away a "free meat pie" at the Burning of King Olaf Festival, the Hero actually receives an Apple Pie.

If you marry him his family will attend the wedding.

Interactions

If you steal from him, or agree to make the delivery & then keep the rum, he will send Hired Thugs after you.

If you attack a member of his family (confirmed with his sister Minette Vinius) he will then "hunt" you and upon approach he will ask you to excuse, if you refuse he will attack you, if you excuse he will then become friendly again.

If he dies and you've made the delivery to Falkbeard for him you will recieve a letter from a courier with an inheritance of little gold.


Trivia

He seems to use alcohol as a means of seduction; he will ask Evette San for a bottle of Spiced Wine to offer Vivienne despite having plenty of it in The Winking Skeever. If Erdi enters the inn he will offer her a drink "on the house" in a flirtatious tone. He may continue to do so even when married to the Dragonborn.

Bugs

If you marry Sorex Vinius, the dialogue option for having him cook something for you can disappear. While this dialogue option can appear, it seems it can also randomly disappear.
