Cairine

Cairine is a Breton citizen living in The Warrens, the hub for all the poor and sick of Markarth. She used to work at the Smelter in Markarth, but is now too sick to do so. Instead, she spends her whole day sitting on the ground of the Warrens holding her stomach in pain.

She wears a set of ragged robes and a matching pair of ragged boots. She only carries an iron dagger.

Quest-Related EventsEdit

New AllegiancesEdit

If you are part of the Volkihar vampires^DG, you will eventually get tasked by Vingalmo to turn a citizen into a vampire. Cairine is one of these possible victims.

Once you have turned her she will be very grateful and greet you with:

"Great gift of blood you've given me. Blood that boils in my veins. Gives me strength. You can use my coffin whenever you like."

"Blood of the sick. Blood of the weak. Blood of the unsuspecting noble lord. Savor each flavor. Unsuspecting, delicious prey."

"I keep an eye on their comings and goings. No one suspects poor Cairine. Poor, poor Cairine. Ha!"

"The darkness hums and we sing its praises. Sweet melodies. Sweet like the water that flows through their veins."

DialogueEdit

When approached she can say:

"You don't want to be here. No one wants to."

"Don't know anyone here doesn't have Rattles or Ataxia."

NotesEdit

Vingalmo will describe her to you as: "A pathetic creature in her present condition, but the gift will embolden her. And her lowly state suits her to being our eyes and ears in Markarth."

BugsEdit

When "killed" for the first time, Cairine will lie still on the floor, yet she is still able to blink, detect the player and engage in conversation.
- The Unofficial Skyrim Patch, version 1.0, fixes this bug.

If you have the quest to turn Cairine into a vampire, you may not be able to feed on her, due to her never standing. If you select her in the console and type moveto player, she will be standing and you can do the quest normally.
