Ever seen a cat ride a horse?
Seboomook the Khajiit Thief with his horse Nightmare.
Taken Sundas, Heartfire 23, 3E 433, before the gates of Imperial City.
If you’re thinking “What is a thief doing in heavy armor!?”, think again: Seboomook is wearing the equipment of Brusef Amelion, recovered during a daring “expedition” into his tomb. The cuirass, the gauntlets, the shield, and the helmet which has been unequipped for the occasion is all light armor. The sword is also a part of the set and is magical like the cuirass. The boots are not part of the set, they are the Boots of the Harbinger, and they too carry a nice enchantment.
When I tell you the horse is named Nightmare, I’m not just kidding either: Jim uncovered a console command for me to change the name of any so-called actor in the game, for which I will be grateful for a very long time. This newly acquired armoured horse (I saved up for a long time to afford that furiously fast black horse from the stables of Cheydinhal) completely makes up for me accidentally throwing away a powerful amulet uncovered from the ruins of Anutwyll. I really gotta learn the difference between unequipping an item and dropping it from your inventory. Alternately, I gotta learn to keep a ton of savegames in backup instead of just 5.
Next item on the wish list: A nice house in idyllic Chorrol. I love this game.
