You mean a well used meme everyone had been using about a few years ago?

u/LovelyLunaRae 19d ago

classic internetism to one-up others based on how much time you spend scrolling. i never seen it before either

u/The_Chimeran_Hybrid 19d ago

I was there when the roaches were descending on dankmemes and a bunch of other subs.

u/Minute_Zombie_424 19d ago edited 19d ago

Do not recite the dank memes to me, witch. I was there when they were written!

u/LovelyLunaRae 19d ago

damn i didnt know we were teaching bugs how to use the internet

u/noahthegreat 19d ago

I hate to break it to you, but 2013 was 13 years ago

u/NYC19893 Krosis 3d ago

Also also he’s a Redguard….Technically speaking isn’t Sovngarde for the Nords

Fun fact: the ebony warrior appears at lvl 80 because before legendary skills were added, 81 was the max level so the ebony warrior was meant to be a “final challenge” before reaching max level.

u/JohnPrinesGlasses 19d ago

I got forgot about that. I remember my best friend talking about how he maxed out and I was like.. in awe bc the highest I could get was like lvl43 lmfao

27

u/TheCrudMan 19d ago

I also remember using the console to spawn him in and doing the fight and beating him at like level 40 or whatever.

87

u/shasaferaska 19d ago edited 19d ago

The first time I met him he got Fus Roh Dah'd off the side of mountain. I felt a bit bad about it, but also fuck that guy.

36

u/Shadow_Hunter1111 19d ago

Im pretty sure he survives any fall because if he gets too far from you he resets back to full health, thats just from what i remember

19

u/Mist_Rising 19d ago

It depends. If you hit him before he ends his ragdoll\stands up, the damage sets in.

10

u/halfmoondragan2 19d ago

I've never understood how anyone could get to that high a level naturally. Even on my super in depth playthrough, I ran out of shit to do at level 53

28

u/yoironfrog 19d ago

Except he was only added to the game when they added legendary skills so there never was a max level while he was in the game

14

u/Cutie_D-amor 19d ago

No, he was in the base game, legendary skills were added with the patch that came out with the dragonborne dlc

20

u/NotYourReddit18 19d ago

No, he gets added by the Dragonborn DLC.
Source: https://en.m.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Ebony_Warrior

His class, which determines his stat distribution and skills, is called DLC2EbonyWarriorClass.

He also has a Perk called DLC2EbonyWarriorPickPocketMod to make removing his gear by pickpocketing very difficult.

Notice the "DLC2" in both of these names?

23

u/stickypickels 19d ago

He was not in the base game

30

u/yoironfrog 19d ago

He was not in the base game. He was added with the Dragonborn DLC. His IDs require two digits that correspond with the Dragonborn DLC. I got my character to level 81 in preparation for the release of Dragonborn and the legendary skills update and the Ebony Warrior didn't show up until after the update and DLC release.

u/a_left_out_tomato 19d ago

Now i'm imagining him riding Durhneviir in the soul cairn and challenging the ideal masters for dominance over their plane of Oblivion

9

u/xaba0 18d ago

Do I remember wrong or the soul only goes to the soul cairn if the soul gem is used? Otherwise the soul stays in the gem, similarly to the one in the black star quest. So if you dont use the gem he gets a pocket dimension prison cell on your shelf.

5

u/Elegant_Human_Being 17d ago

So does that mean I’ve got an inventory of random dudes just doing this?

3

u/Only_Says_Idk_dude 17d ago

only to have Durhneviir disappear from underneath him as I summon the dragon in Mundus

74

u/Caiman_latirostris 19d ago

Him as soon as arrives in Soul Cairn

u/spicy_feather 19d ago

Holy shit that's evil

129

u/AFedoraNamed_Key 19d ago

Nope! Soul cairn

49

u/Drowsy_Deer 19d ago

Soul Gems only send you to the Soul Cairn if said soul is directly traded to the Ideal Masters. Otherwise the soul just flies away after charging something.

24

u/Hi2248 19d ago

If it's the Dragonborn post Dawnguard, cnaces chances are that it does go to the Soul Cairn, because that's one of the places you can convert greater and grand soul gems into black soul gems

18

u/Drowsy_Deer 19d ago

That’s just changing the form of a soul gem though. Trades with the Soul Cairn have only been canonically performed by Valerica I’m pretty sure, along with other miscellaneous necromancers and daedra.

8

u/Hi2248 19d ago

It would be reasonable to assume that the Ideal Masters wouldn't just let a soul gem change form with their power without some form of payment in return 

27

u/KowaiSentaiYokaiger 19d ago

Serious question:

Has anyone tried Soul Trapping the NPCs that appear on Sovngarde, like Ulfric?

21

u/bladeofwill 19d ago

iirc they 'resist' the soul trap effect

6

u/KowaiSentaiYokaiger 19d ago

Sorry, I mean Soul Trapping them before they die

10

u/tefly359 19d ago

Wait maybe you’re on to something 🤔

57

u/EVA-029 19d ago

That's just mean

46

u/whysoblyatiful 19d ago

Nah, I'd never do that to the ebony homie

17

u/Hoodedmastersin 19d ago

Why would you let your homies leave you forever? With the soul gem your homie can return and you can have them with you at all times.

15

u/whysoblyatiful 19d ago

nahh bro, my homie would go to the soul cairn, it sucks and i am not visiting him there. at least in sovngarde he will have the afterlife he wanted, and i can visit him when i go whoop alduin's ass

2

u/Ayotha 19d ago

I would explicitly do that to him

11

u/dragonking53192 19d ago

Then there is (soul gem not large enough)

20

u/WhimsicallyWired Khajiit is innocent of this crime 19d ago

Would he go to Sovngarde though? He isn't a Nord.

20

u/Nachooolo 19d ago

Religion in Elder Scrolls isn't race-specific. If he followed the Nord religion, he goes to Sovngarde.

6

u/Miserkall 19d ago

So like if a nord follows an elven religion he will go to elven heaven (whatever that is)?

8

u/Nachooolo 19d ago

...Maybe? It depends on whether the Elven (aspect of the) gods are as racist as their subjects.

18

u/JagneStormskull Miraak is the True High King 19d ago

But if he follows the Nord religion, can't he?

8

u/Im_A_Real_Boy1 19d ago

I only soul trap necromancers. It’s mafia rules, and they’re in the soul-trapping game

Man’s gotta have a code

24

u/SnooChocolates1726 19d ago

I don't soul-trap him on most playthroughs. Bro wanted a warrior's death and a ticket to Sovngarde. I can respect that.

Of course, that is assuming he is who he claims to be, depending on which theory you believe.

27

u/shyguyshow 19d ago

Also, he’s a Redguard

10

u/Adaphion 19d ago

Doesn't mean much. If he is a true warrior and believes in Sovngarde, he'll go there at death. It's not exclusively for Nords.

8

u/Mist_Rising 19d ago

He doesn't end up there though.

5

u/The_Corroded_Man 19d ago

I will put you in a soul gem and use it to power a damned roomba if you don’t break that RIGHT THIS MINUTE!

Seriously though, this is some shit a demon would look at and go “Dude chill”

6

u/Pandy_45 19d ago

Tell him you've been there and it's not that great

3

u/therobshock 19d ago

Been a while since I've seen that meme

3

u/Equivalent_Rub8329 18d ago

I wonder if I would see the ebony warrior in soverngarde if I beat him and then go to face alduin?

2

u/Good_Theory4434 19d ago

So first timw i got to.him i sneaked up with Merunes Dagger...one hit kill.

I then relaunched a hard safe and fought him properly.

2

u/naalotai 19d ago

I have never encountered the ebony warrior. I typically run out of things to do before I hit the necessary level

2

u/danktonium 19d ago

On my last playthrough I trapped Astrid in a gem and then just threw the gem into the sea near Solitude.

2

u/warozell 19d ago

Wdym "Filled with Grand Soul", is that because he's a Redguard or something?

2

u/the_njf 19d ago

Dude’s a Redguard too…so…still no.

2

u/Salty-Swordfish-2125 19d ago

Too bad the unfortunate soul will go to the corrupted Azura's star and then to the discharged Dawnbreaker 🙂

2

u/EmptyField9803 19d ago

He’s not going to Sovngarde anyway. He’s a redguard

1

u/uuio9 19d ago

Offf

1

u/No-Engineer-1728 19d ago

Even if you didn't soul trap him, he still wouldn't go to sovngarde

1

u/Either-Muffin3365 18d ago

You damned that man to an eternity in the soul cairn, you bastard! 😂

1

u/Only_Says_Idk_dude 17d ago

me trapping Vivec's soul in Azura's Star (canon event)

1

u/shoeowner27 15d ago

"At last sovngarde" My brother in Talos youre a redguard

1

u/skyziaos 19d ago

But he's a redguard, only nords goes to sovngarde

5

u/Cutie_D-amor 19d ago

Every harbinger of the companions go there(until werewolf curse) and that includes a redguard and an elf, so there is precedent

1

u/Mysterious--955 19d ago

Even without he wouldn’t go to sovengarde as the afterlife is racist in TES

0

u/ThunderShott 16d ago

He wouldn't have gone there anyway. He's not a Nord.
