Dragon Priests!

This is old news, but this is a database, not a news station! Or well, it's also sort of a news station... Snap.

... That aside, lets talk Dragon Priests.
As you may have noticed, dragons are quite common in Skyrim all of a sudden, much to our delight. In fact, Nords worshipped Dragons many, many years ago, which is why there are still dragon temples, such as Bleak Falls Barrow, scattered around the land.

Every temple needs a priest, and thus they were bestowed with their very own version of a wicker, which as you may have guessed, eventually came to be quite dead. Sure, like with Michael Jackson, it is a sad loss and they are missed, which I guess they've sensed, 'cause they are coming back in a rather unfriendly manner, which I am sure you've already spotted. They return as Draugr, still going by their old title: Dragon Priest, and they function as sort of a boss fight, as seen the the Skyrim demo video, where one of these guys floats out of a coffin with the goal of butchering our little, innocent hero, through whatever dirty means he can!

Luckily, our hero prevails, robs him blind as his just reward, and takes off.

    Robbing them blind, when their eyes might have rotted away for many years ago!

  3. To me it sounds like they'll do it the same way they did in Oblivion.

    You know, Mike, we also have a facebook page called Skyrim Coverage, if you'd like to get the smaller updates quicker as well as discuss stuff.
