Telrav's Request[]
Telrav is a leveled bandit who impersonates a wounded merchant who has been the victim of a robbery. While traveling, his cart was ransacked and looted by nearby bandits. He convinces the Dragonborn to help him regain his cart, luring him or her into an ambush by the other bandits, which he joins in combat.
Combat[]
As Telrav wears no armor, he remains vulnerable to melee attacks. His consorts are leveled, making them more difficult.
Trivia[]
- It is possible to get ambushed at Nilheim, without ever even talking to Telrav.
- If the guards posted at the camp are killed before talking to Telrav, he will respond, "My men! You'll pay for this!" and will become hostile. This response gives no hints that there was an ambush set, making it seem to the Dragonborn as if there was no trap at all.
- Telrav is "varlet" backwards, which means a knave or a rascal.
- If the guards at Nilheim are killed, Telrav may send hired thugs after the Dragonborn.
Bugs[]
This section contains bugs related to Telrav. Before adding a bug to this list, consider the following:
|
- Sometimes after the Dragonborn has escorted Telrav to the camp, instead of running toward Nilhiem and becoming hostile, he will walk back to where he was sitting and become unresponsive.
- When he is waiting to talk to the Dragonborn, after walking just past the quest marker of Nilhiem, use Unrelenting Force from behind, forcing him into the camp. He will then become hostile.
- If the Dragonborn arrives at Nilhiem on horseback, the Guards may become hostile towards the horse.
- PC 360 PS3 PS4 Accepting the quest and then killing Telrav before he reaches his camp makes it impossible to complete, and causes the quest to remain in your log indefinitely.
- Killing Telrav after he reaches the camp but before bandits attack causes bandits to attack each other, completely ignoring the Dragonborn until only one bandit is left.
- 360 The bridge leading to Nilhiem may not be present. If this is so, Telrav will walk into the water and be carried down the mountainside.
- If the Dragonborn goes into Nilheim through the back and gets ambushed by a dragon, the bandits nearby might die from this. Before speaking to Telrav, the bandits will be known as “guards,” and if they die as guards Telrav will start his quest, but once he enters Nilheim he will go back to sitting down by the road. If this occurs, he will only use the generic dialogue, “Need something?” Or “Yes?”
