The Master pickpocket perk lets me steal the armor and clothes people are wearing. The castles are full of nekkid guards running around.

In Oblivion, there was a Deadric quest that just wasn't quite as believable because of that. Getting the Wabbajack was pretty cool though.

Edit:
Oops, I was thinking of the quest to get The Sanguine Rose.

Sheogorath's quest was pretty awesome too.
What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

You hit someone or something with it and it turns into another creature at random. You get it in the quest that involves an elaborate prank on a Kajeet village.

Because I haven't played Oblivion, but I remember something like that in Daggerfall

I never played Daggerfall or any of the early series. I started with Morrowind. I thought it would be a fun shoot-em-up for the odd hour or two here and there when I saw a flatmate playing it. I was so wrong :timewarp:

Don't got no xbox, I has a PC.
Just completed a dwarven armour set [found everything but the helm which I made], I love it. But then I think the dwarves are awesome, secular science-minded elf-race that got hated on by the god-botherers.

Hell yeah! That is, until they apparently got themselves all disappeared save one of them. I love their steam/clockwork gear :steampunk:

How about those morally questionable Daederic quests?
