Heimskr the Weirdo

Heimskr the Weirdo is a really annoying monk who worships a banned god in Skyrim. He is constantly talking about Talos, his hero, who he loves. No-one knows where Heimskr came from, but he seems oblivious to the fact that Talos worship is banned in Skyrim, and oddly, despite the fact that he worships Talos openly in a patriotic city, no-one reports on him or even questions him. In fact, people congregate to blindly stare at him in the middle of the city.

He lives in a tiny shack which is destroyed during the Battle of Whiterun by, ironically, the Stormcloak soldiers which he loves so much. Heimskr never actually swears allegance to the Stormcloaks, but since they want to liberate Talos worshippers it is assumed that he loves them.

His annoying quotes refer to how everyone is going to die and the world will end unless people worship Talos again. Ironically, Talos himself gets annoyed with this. Heimskr was eventually killed by Bandits who kidnap him in plain daylight, yet no-one tries to save him. He was taken to their hold and tortured to death, apparently still uttering his Talos prayers until the very last. Hmm.

Great, now I feel sorry for him. Damn.
