Susanna the Wicked is a Nord who can be found in Candlehearth Hall in Windhelm. She is flagged as essential and cannot be killed by the Dragonborn, however she is later murdered as part of the quest "Blood on the Ice".

Background[]

"You didn't hear it from me, but if you want a real drink, try the Cornerclub in the Gray Quarter."
―Susanna the Wicked[src]

Susanna works at Candlehearth Hall as a waitress, at all hours. At one point, she asked Nils to make a recipe for his chaurus pie, and that led him to write the book Chaurus Pie: A Recipe.[1]

Personality[]

She cannot be conversed with, but she offers small lines of dialogue and sympathizes with the Dunmer and Argonians in Windhelm. According to Elda Early-Dawn, "she plays the flirt, but it's just to get good tips." Her name is a stark contrast to her personality, like Grelod the Kind or Fultheim the Fearless.

Interactions[]

Blood on the Ice[]

As part of the quest "Blood on the Ice," Susanna is murdered by the Butcher. According to the Butcher's Journal, she exited the Candlehearth Hall, late at night. The killer was eager to grab her, but guards were present. Eventually, she was murdered in the cemetery of the city. Calixto Corrium and Silda the Unseen were witnesses to the crime. Later, her body can be found in the Hall of the Dead, being tended to by Helgird.
