CHAPTER 1 - INTRODUCTION

************************

*******
WELCOME
*******

Welcome to my Elder Scrolls Oblivion guide! I decided
to *try* and make a decent guide, because I love this game
so much! Its just so good, i'm glad it was worth the delay
wait! I was once reading an magazine about the Elder Scrolls,
so I brought Morrowind. I loved it, so I was going to buy
the sequel, Oblivion for christmas. But it never came out.
But March, it did. And I got it a week before release, I think.
Pre-order is cool. Anyways, it's finally here. The BEST RPG on
the PC and XBOX 360! Lets all enter the beautiful land of Cyrodiil,
and destroy those Oblivion gates!

*********
THE GUIDE
*********

So what about the guide? Well, it has a full walkthrough for all
the story-line quests, it has guild quest walkthroughs, character
development, misc. game stuff and a FAQ. Sorry, theres actually no
need on HOW TO PLAY for this game. It's abit pointless really.
Thats what the manual is for! If you dont have one, check another
guide or buy one off the internet! Your not getting one from
me! This current version, the guide isn't fully complete though.
You will have to wait for future versions until it's complete, if
it ever is.

********
THE GOAL
********

My Ultimate goal is to write the very best walkthrough and FAQ for
this game. I will have all the quests in it, full story walkthrough,
walkthrough for future expansion packs (let's hope they appear) and
a full item list. It's going to be a very big guide in the future,
hopefully it won't take up too much time. Good luck to me, and I hope
I write this damn thing!

**
ME
**

I'm a 13 year old teenager, I live in the U.K. and Oblivion is
my favourite RPG game. I play games most of the time, and write
the occasional guide for them. This is my third guide, and my biggest
challenge of writing one too. I want to be a games creator when i'm
older, so I also do alot of stuff with TES Construction Set (for Oblivion)
and Game Maker 6. I have also made my own world for Well of Souls. My
net name is a mix really, sometimes it's Exodist, sometimes it's
Ramir_Klensbane, Exodist is preffered. My real name is Ryan Haighton.
Well, I hope you find this guide useful for you many needs for
Oblivion, and hope you have fun!

Ignore the note below, I have the Construction Set now! Time to get
modding!

NOTE: There is very little chance of having a full walkthrough for
this game. I will not be able to give you a list of EVERY item and
weapon and armour or stuff like that. It's just too hard for me
without the construction kit. Anyways, you might not find what you
need. Maybe pop me an e-mail, see if I know. But I am NOT a master
of this game. I am still learning stuff everyday, so be patient,
or go out and do the quest or whatever it is yourself!

CHAPTER 2 - MAIN QUEST WALKTHROUGH

**********************************

So then, the main quest walkthrough. At almost ANY point in the
game, you can stop this, and go adventuring around dungeons, towns,
horse riding and doing the many guild or town quests.
Which is good, if your REALLY stuck. The good thing about
Oblivion is that the difficulty isn't that hard really. Going
through the story-line quest, you won't find an enemy that your
so badly stuck at, you just won't play the game again. With
the new Combat system, the game is even more realistic, and
easier, so it's not some sort of Hack and slash crap.
Anyway, lets get on with the guide!
NOTE: This guide won't be of the best of quality, I will add more
things and more detail for the hard parts soon.

IMPERIAL CITY PRISON

OK, you will start by creating your character. OK, once you
have done that, you will gain control. I prefer to play in
first person mode, but by pressing the R key, you can switch
to third person. Remember, you don't get a crosshair in third
person. Anyways, after admiring the scenery (you do have all
the sliders on full, if not buy a better graphics card!) walk
over to the door. You will find the prisoner across the room
talking to you, but don't listen. Soon, three guards will
come and unlock your door, with the emperor behind them.
They will walk in, and open up a secret passage behind your
bed. The Emperor will talk to you first, saying your from
his dreams. He will thus instantly trust you! Yay. Anyway,
the guards are part of the Blades, whom you will join later,
and may remember them from Morrowind (the organisation).
Anyway, follow them through the passage.
Stay back abit first, because something is going to happen
which may kill you already. The blades are ambushed by
Assassins, so once they are all dead, your told that
you should stay in this room, and not follow them.
Instead, you should take this oppurtunity to escape!
Find the guard that died, and take her equipment,
and anything else you think might be usefull to you.
Eventually, some giant rats and goblins will break
through the wall, so kill them. Go through the passage
they opened up, and tutorial messages will tell you
the basics of the game. Read the messages, and continue
through the rooms. Finally, you will get to a large room.
Here is a goblin witch, so kill her. She has a dangerous staff
which shoots electric every time it's swung. Take it and equip
it if you want to, and kill the rest of the enemies. Go through
the only passage, and you will find the Emperor and his guards
again. This time, you should fight when your ambushed, as the
assassins will come for you this time! This is the time you
must choose your birth sign, so choose one you like!
Keep following the guards, and eventually, you will find
a locked gate. AMBUSH!!! You must do your best to protect
the emperor, but you will fail. One of the blades is killed,
and so is the emperor. But the Emperor gives you his amulet,
that big red one. You can't wear it, so don't try. Kill
all the assassins, and then talk to the remaining blade.
Here, choose your class, specialization and all that crap,
then continue on! Finally, save it before the big door leading
to outside. You can tell it goes outside, because of the light.
Save it, and you get the chance to change your characters class,
appearance, and everything else you choose whilst in your prison
escape. If you happy with you character, proceed through the door
to Cyrodiil!

TO WEYNON PRIORY AND KVATCH

OK, checking the map your outside the Imperial City. You should
enter and find some equipment to buy, and some quests. Once your
finished, make sure the story-line quest is your active quest,
and you should see a red arrow on your compass. You should follow
this arrow which leads to Weynon Priory. You can also check on
the big map to see exactly where it is. So when your finished in
the Imperial City, start going in that direction. My advice is
to run across the fields, as you really need to follow the path.
If you do, be careful, you might run into a bandit asking
for 100 gold. Just kill him, but it might a tough battle.
Keep going, until your at your destination, so enter the
building. Your looking for Jauffre, so find him and talk
to him. Give him the amulet, and tell him all about what
went on. You are told to find Martin, the emperor Septims
son, who is a priest in Kvatch. OK, so you must find him
now. So head to Kvatch. You will notice the red sky, and
the chaos. Kvatch has been attacked! You will soon find
a big red gate, which looks like the Oblivion logo, well
actually, it is! Talk to the guards nearby. Martin is
trapped inside Kvatch, and you must close gate before
you can get inside. Now, I reccommend having all your
weapons and armour with full condition, because you may be
inside for a while. You can trek back out, but it depends on
if you can be bothered. And get lots of healing potions/items!
When your ready, head on in!

OBLIVION

Your now inside Oblivion, a red, fiery, dark and evil place.
You will notice the main enemy is Scamps. These may take quite
a few hits to kill. You will notice a giant bridge in front
of you. Near it, should be a live Kvatch guard. Talk to him,
he tells you to rescue his friend, who was captured and is in
the tower. Tell him to help you, you will need help for this
part! He will start following you, so you have extra help for
