―M'aiq
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
M'aiq the Liar is a recurring source of bad information in the Elder Scrolls series, featured in The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. He was introduced by the game designers as an easter egg to provide commentaries about Elder Scrolls games.
In all three games, he loves to share his opinions with the player on a variety of random topics including Children, Colovian Fur Helms, Companions, Crossbows, Dragons, fighting with one's feet, fish sticks, nudity, Werewolves, and more. He always speaks in third-person when spoken to, like most Khajiit. He is marked as an essential character and thus cannot be killed. In Skyrim he will mention the fact his father and grandfather were both also named M'aiq the Liar.
