Bulgor Gro Shorok: Part 6
From where I left off I decided it was time to go to Alduin's Wall in Sky Haven Temple, once I got near a Dragon and an assassin attacked me, this Dragon was quite hard to kill because it didn't land which meant that I couldn't attack it with my melee weapons, but eventually I killed it, adding more bones and scales to my collection. Upon further travelling towards the entrance I noticed the biggest Foresworn camp happened to be blocking the entrance, usually they aren't too hard to kill but for some reason they had about three amazing mages that were very hard to deal with, in time (with the help of Esbern and Delphine) I got to the entrance.Once inside it was quite easy to get to the actual temple, there was only a few traps and enemies, even two puzzles. I rushed ahead to get in to the temple proper to find some nice equipment including a very cool sword called Dragonbane, I then waited for the others to catch up and tell me all about the wall, after some more missing speech for Esbern I got my next quest. And that's all Ive managed to do so far, I'm sorry for the long delay for this post to arrive, another post should be coming soon. Thank you for reading.

Bulgor Gro Shorok: Part 5
Once I arrived in Windhelm I went straight to Ulfric and gave him the Jagged Crown, he was pleased with my efforts and gave me a new objective, to take Whiterun. Galmar was already there with plenty of men and at least two catapults to devastate the city, Galmar did a speech and then gave the order to attack with me storming in front. Firstly we destroyed the wooden spiked walls so that our troops could advance, then after mowing down some more Imperials I had to open the draw bridge to open up the courtyard, and finally the main gates into Whiterun were free to go through. Once inside I faced a simple guard and easily won the fight, then we ran up the road to the market area to fight a few more guards, and eventually we got to the Jarl's domain, Dragonsreach. I entered prepared for the worst and all I found were six more guards with the Jarl and Ireleth, we fought until the Jarl submitted to us (which wasn't too long) and then Vignar Gray-Mane entered Dragonsreach to claim Jarlship, I preferred the change in government as did most of the civilians there. After wandering the streets of this war torn city I spoke with Jarl Vignar and he seemed very enthusiastic about fixing the walls and making Whiterun a better city, there was even some talk of a new temple. Full of pride, I went back to Ulfric to tell him of our victory, he was very pleased and rewarded me with a new sword, but then quickly went on to tell me to go take orders off Galmar. I got to the Falkreath Military Camp to meet Galmar and he told me to meet up with a group of soldiers and attack a nearby fort, it turned out that good old Ralof was there on his first Commanding mission, so he told us what we are going to do, there were some prisoners in there that could be freed so that we could attack the fort from the inside but that would mean I had to sneak in to the fort, so I went to the Dungeons to find two weak Imperials guarding the jails, I took both of them out with my arrows and then freed all the Stormcloaks being held captive, we all attacked the fort and in the end we got a good result.... another victory.
That's all for now, another post will be coming soon. Thank you for reading.

Bulgor Gro Shorok: Part 4
In the last post I had decided to join the Stormcloaks, so off I went to Windhelm. As soon as I arrived a Dragon attacked but wasn't too hard to defeat, the only problem that I had was all the buildings were stopping it from landing so I couldn't use close combat. I then set my sites to the Palace Of The Kings which is where Ulfric Stormcloak and Galmar Stone-Fist reside, Galmar is Ulfric's General and he is also a loyal friend and soldier to Ulfric. To join the Stormcloaks I had to speak to Ulfric, he said that he remembers me from Helgen (which is the first place you find), he told me I should speak with Galmar to get me started and after a small talk as to why I want to join he then told me to go to the Serpents Stone to kill an Ice Wraith. It was easy enough to kill it, and once I returned all I had to do was swear my loyalty to an oath. After the oath I was officially a Stormcloak and I was assigned my first mission, Galmar was convinced that an ancient mythical crown called the Jagged Crown was at a place called Korvanjund and I was to meet him and some other troops just outside of the area. After a quick speech off Galmar we attacked the Imperials that happened to be there already. The Imperials were easy to kill, I waited just by the entrance to Korvanjund while the others caught up and once they did we got another speech to listen to, once that was over we finally entered. Korvanjund was quite a big place but it was a good mission, I liked all the tactics that Galmar was giving out and how he made me feel like I was a more important soldier than the others. Soon enough we got to the last room of Korvanjund to find the Jagged Crown lay on the head of a powerful Draugr, I already knew that he wasn’t a dead Draugr so I went in for the kill and soon enough he and all the other Draugr were finally gone for good, I took the Crown and also learnt a new Word of Power called Slow Time. I then hurried to Windhelm to give the crown to Ulfric.
That’s where I’m up to for now, another post will be coming soon. Thank you for reading.

Funny Glitch!
Like most Skyrim players, I have more than one character. And like most Skyrim players I am trying to be every kind of character. So on the other end of the spectrum from my Orc character (Bulgor Gro Shorok) I have a Wood Elf archer. Now there is a glitch that I think I have found, and it was while I was playing as my Wood Elf.
If you get hit by an arrow while guards are attacking you, and you submit (which takes you in to dialogue), say "I submit, take me to jail", you will then end up in prison but the arrows are still there..... that's right PERMANENT ARROWS and my Wood Elf took one straight in the knee.... yep that's right, I took an arrow to the knee, and also the groin. I tried everything to get rid of them, they usually just disappear as your health regenerates so I tried healing spells, potions, you name it. And I had no previous saves to go back to. Luckily it was only a Level 3 character so it wasn't a great loss when I deleted him but it was still annoying at the least.
I hope that this helps you out so that you can either:
Avoid looking like a voodoo doll.
Or so that you can devote an entire save file to becoming a hedgehog.

I used to be a Wood Elf like you... then I took an arrow in the knee *DELETED* |

Bulgor Gro Shorok: Part 3
From where I left off I was starting the quest "A Cornered Rat", I was in the Ragged Flagon and asked the bartender where I might find Esbern, he didn't know anyone called Esbern but my best bet was a crazy old man that some "dangerous looking elves" were hunting, I instantly knew the Thalmor were ahead of me so I went deeper into the Ratway to get to Esbern before my enemies did. As soon as I stepped into the Ratway I saw the Thalmor Wizard leading at least two soldiers, I drew my bow and took a shot at one them but it didn't kill him, by now they were alerted to my position and within moments the snobbish Thalmor Wizard was in front of me casting shock spells, I used my Thu'um Unrelenting Force to send him hurdling down three floors till he landed at the bottom of the sewers dead from the fall. The other two soldiers were easy to kill with my greatsword, I then moved down into even deeper parts of the Ratway, I could hear some insane woman shouting "they'll never find me" and then followed that sentence with a manic laugh, there was also a man who seemed to want to eat me, warning me to "not get any closer" and that he wants to take bites out of me (this was the first time I used a console command, and I used it to lock the cell that he was already in with an apprentice difficulty lock, muhahaha). One of the doors was Esbern's and there seemed to be a huge bug with the story line, I tried to open the door and he opened a small shutter to talk to me but the dialogue was all messed up and I ended up having to use another console command to actually proceed with the main story, eventually I had to take him to Delphine in Riverwood. When we arrived at Riverwood there were two dragons and thief (which I didn't need since I already had the trouble of a messed up NPC) I managed to kill the two dragons and then walked up to the scared thief and killed him too. After all the commotion I entered the Sleeping Giant Inn to carry on with the quest but again Esbern bugged out and didn't speak, yet I still got the new quest called "Alduin's Wall". Because I had got slightly annoyed with how much the story line was bugged I decided to head over to Windhelm to join the Stormcloaks (I would have preferred to join the Imperials since I'm an Orc but I've never been with the Stormcloaks).

Bulgor Gro Shorok: Part 2
From where I was in the last post, I was given the task of getting into the Thalmor base as a 'guest' to a party and then steal information. Firstly Delphine told me to find a Wood Elf who could get my armour and weapons in to the embassy without the Thalmor knowing, then I had to get Delphine to get an invitation for me, and then I had to meet her near Solitude so she could give me some fine clothes to wear for the party. Once all that was done I got in a carriage to the embassy and entered the party with ease, there were a fair few people there, so it would be hard to sneak out unnoticed but there was one particular trouble maker there. I persuaded him to make a scene so I could leave through a door behind the drinks counter with the Wood Elf that I met before, he took me to my armour and weapons and then opened a door that led the way I had to go. From there I was on my own, trying to sneak through in clunky Orcish armour. I got to a door and behind it were two Thalmor soldiers, I thought this would be a good time to improve at my archery, and by the time I'd got to the documents my archery was a lot better. Now that we found out that the Thalmor had nothing to do with the Dragons returning, Delphine asked me to go to a man called Esbern in Riften because he may know more than anyone else about the Dragons. I got to Riften but before I could get to Esbern, a man called Brynolf came to me and has convinced me to join the thieves guild, I would have said no but I knew that the only way I could find out about the "Unusual gem" that I had would be to ask them.
