Dialogue[edit]

Depending on the choice you make, you will overhear them comment on said choice:

Female Argonian

If alerted:

"You can't escape, criminal!"
"Cease your movement!"
"Halt at once!"
"No sudden moves!"

Caught:

"I erect the spine of judgement. Will you pay your fine?"
"Great news! You get to pay my salary. I hope you've been busy, I could use a raise."
"I love collecting bounties. I always wanted to be a poorly dressed, underpaid tax-collector."
"Real law enforcement is so boring. Why stop crimes when you can just stand around demanding bounties?"
"Keep your hands away from your weapons…or just stand there like an idiot. That works too, I guess."
"Time to pay the fine. Are you going to need help counting it? Basic arithmetic––a criminal's bane."
"Don't you just hate guards hassling you for bounties? Almost makes you want to stop committing crimes…."
"Surrender, scum! That means 'give up.' I know, I know…small words, short sentences."
"I erect the spine of 'pay your bounty so I can get back to my patrol."
"I don't make the fines. I just collect the bounty. Now pay up or I'll get rough with you.'"
"The mud of justice has finally caught up with you. You're under arrest."
"Pay your bounty and no one will get hurt. Except me. Trouble at home, you know?"
"Please, no sad tale of your innocence. I couldn't bear to listen. Just pay your bounty."
"I'm probably wasting my time, but I'll ask anyway. Will you pay your bounty?"
"I'm not a judge or a jury. I'm just here to collect your bounty."
"You're not going to pay your bounty, are you?"
"Your crime is like a blockage in the river of your soul. I can clear it up if you pay your bounty."
"Let me help you clear your soul. Hand over your bounty and I'll put in a good word next time I pray."
"Crime is a dank cloud of noxious vapor. Pay your bounty and let the winds of justice prevail."
"Meditation will ease your mind, but the demands of justice require solid, immutable gold."
"Sithis can't forgive your crimes, but you are in luck. The law accepts gold."
"Why did you have to break the law? Now you have to pay the bounty."
"How does this go again? Um, yes…'Stop, criminal, and pay the bounty for your crimes.'"
"I was on a break, having a few drinks, when I noticed your criminal face."
"You're a very bad person, and I'm…I'm going to take your bounty, all right?"
"Forget something, toad? Resist if you want, but it's tough to hop away with broken legs."
Clemency
"You expect me to let you go then? Sure why not."
Payment
"Pleasure doing business with you."
[Flee] I won't pay the bounty.
"I knew you would be trouble."
"Attack the guard? Great idea!"
"Suicide by guard? So be it!"
"One of us will regret this!"
"I expected more of you, villain!"
"You were hatched from a rotten egg!"
"Was I not intimidating?"
"I'll tell my superior about this!"
"Now you done it!"
"I'll make a drum out of your hide!"
Male Argonian

If alerted:

"Hold, criminal!"
"I found you!"
"Halt and surrender!"
"Stand still, criminal!"

Caught:

"I'm sorry, but I must demand your bounty. I'm sure you understand."
"There's no cause to fear me. I'm here to help you pay your bounty."
"We all forget things in the midst of our hectic lives. So I'm here to remind you to pay your fine."
"Uh, yeah, that's right. I represent the town guard. So, uh, pay the bounty, all right?"
"We must all face the consequences of our actions eventually. That's just how the river flows."
"Well met! I know you plan to pay your fine. I'm here to accommodate your needs."
"I'm here to collect your bounty. Then we can put this unfortunate business behind us."
"Good friend, it seems you forgot to take care of the bounty hanging over you."
"I must insist you pay your bounty. Justice shall be served."
"You'd think I'd find this more exciting, but no. Anyway, will you yield and pay your fine?"
"My scales blush at your beauty, but I must ask for your bounty."
"Neither of us wants to be here, but here we are. So, can I collect your bounty now?"
"What did you do? No, don't tell me, I'd rather not know. Just pay your bounty and be on your way."
"My scales moisten in your presence. I desire much from you, but I must settle for your bounty."
"Another criminal? Why am I not surprised? I suppose you want to pay your bounty now?"
"My records indicate you owe a bounty for a past crime. And my records are never wrong."
"Such beauty––why must it be so savage? You must pay for your criminal transgressions."
"I am drawn by your musk, but also by my duty. Please. Do not make me scar such a pretty face."
"You are a shining fish caught in a foul current, but you can still return to the river's flow."
"Sometimes the law moves at the speed of mud flowing uphill. If you pay now, I'd be grateful."
"Bright flowers often have poison barbs. Is it the same with you? I will not be beguiled."
"I've heard every excuse, so spare me and just pay your bounty."
"Even the prettiest saplings must be pruned. Especially when they branch into criminal activity."
"I regret that we come from opposite sides of the river. Only your bounty can pass between us."
"If I'm not interrupting anything important, I'd like to secure your bounty now."
"I've had a hard day. Don't give me any grief, criminal scum!"
"Pay your bounty and maybe I'll let you walk away."
"I do hope you're not a violent sort. I much prefer to deal with civilized lawbreakers."
"You did some crime. Now you pay a bounty."
"You have to pay a bounty because you're a bad person."
"You're a bad person. Pay the fine."
"Why did you do such a bad thing?"
"I can take your gold now."
"The captain says you must pay 'restitution.' Whatever that means."
"Know what we do with criminals around here? Pay your bounty, and you won't have to find out."
"Bounty's too nice for the likes of you."
"You don't want to pick a fight with me. Pay your bounty or else."
"I've heard every excuse, so spare me and just pay your bounty."
"You'd think I'd find this more exciting, but no. Anyway, will you yield and pay your fine?"
"Another criminal? Why am I not surprised? I suppose you want to pay your bounty now?"
"You need to be careful. I'm a volcano of raw emotion and I'm ready to explode!"
"Take care, or collecting your bounty won't be an option. Bleeding on the ground? That's always an option."
"You can pay your bounty, or I can beat the snot out of you. Your choice."
"My last prisoner? Stabbed himself in the back, after roughing himself up a bit. Hint, hint."
Clemency
"All right, but don't try my patience again."
Payment
"Ah friend! All is forgiven."
"All right, I guess we're done here."
[Flee] I won't pay the bounty.
"I'll make this painless as possible!"
"I tried to be nice about this."
"You should have paid the gold."
"The grass wanes in the wind and I do not!"
"I knew this would happen!"
"The wind of justice must blow!"
"Why did you try to run?"
"You crossed the wrong guard, villain!"
"You're leaving? Over my dead body!"
"You can't outrun the wamasu!"
"Should have paid the bounty."
"Now I get to hit you!"
"And I thought I wouldn't hit anything today!"
"You trifled with the wrong guard, villain!"
"You just cracked the egg, scum!"
Female Dunmer

If alerted:

"You will stop, criminal!"
"Hold it, s'wit!"
"Hold, scum!"
"Halt, damn you!"

Caught:

"If it were up to me, we'd dispense with this bounty business and kill the lot of you."
"I don't suppose it's your fault. I suppose your parents simply didn't teach you any better."
"This place was nice until the likes of you came along. Pay up."
"The criminal element is irredeemable. But I'm still required to collect your bounty."
"Your bounty now, if you please."
"Pay your bounty and you can go about your business."
"I have a poem for you: What oh what will the criminal do? Pay the bounty or get run-through?"
"You owe a fine. Will you pay?"
"There's nothing I'd like more than to gut you, but I'm supposed to ask you to pay your bounty."
"The law demands recompense for your criminal acts."
"You are free to go, as soon as you pay your bounty."
"We can do this the pay-your-fine way or the tear-you-to-pieces way. Your pick."
"Here's what we do: pay your bounty, or I start cutting off important parts of your body."
"I've seen cliff-racers that are scarier than you. Pay the bounty."
"You owe a bounty and I'm here to collect."
"Pay the bounty…if scum like you even has that kind of money."
"Lawbreakers like you make me sick. Pay the bounty and get out of my sight."
"Oh, good. Another criminal. Which will it be? The bounty or my weapon in your ribs?"
"Pay your bounty and we'll have no trouble."
"You can pay the bounty or fight, and I love to fight."
"The criminals around here used to have class. Now it's all dirt and bloodstains."
"You pay your bounty, or we find out what kind of pattern your blood makes when it hits the ground."
"I've met a lot of criminals, but you don't have the look. I have no idea why your name is on my list."
"You don't look like you can afford to pay your bounty. No way you have enough gold."
"You're a criminal? Really? I don't think so. Still, if you insist on paying a bounty, I'll accept it."
"What's that? You owe a bounty? Not you! I don't believe it. But if you insist, I'll take your gold."
"Innocent? Everyone says that. You know the next best thing? Paying your bounty!"
"If you're a criminal, then I'm an Argonian's uncle! But I'll take your bounty if it will make you happy."
"Everybody wants to pay me a bounty. It must be my face. It has that 'you can trust me' quality."
"If you were a real criminal, I don't suppose I would've caught you. You still need to pay me, though."
"We can sweep all this down the kwama hole for the right price…."
"The Tribunal is just and forgiving. I am not the Tribunal. Gold. Now."
"Going to give me a sour look, ay? Well the cost just went up. Cough it up, s'wit!"
"Dragging your feet isn't going to make this easier, f'lah. I've got all the time in the world."
"I'm not surprised you turned out to be a criminal."
"This place was nice until the likes of you came along. Pay up."
"Want to get rich, huh? You picked the wrong profession. Law enforcement's where the gold is. Your gold."
"What audacity! What utter gall! I'll have no more it. Just pay your fine and be gone!"
"It's not that I'm above bribery…it's that I don't like you. Pay the bounty or else."
"Crime only pays if I get a cut, s'wit. Remember that for next time."
"By the Three, my rights and duties. Ha! Right now my right and duty is to squeeze you for gold."
"I really hope this goes easily. I'd prefer not to kill you today. So, what will it be? Easy or hard?"
"Can we hurry this up? I have a prior appointment and he hates it when I'm late."
"And once again a varlet has succumbed to the long arm of justice. Will you pay your fine?"
"Your crimes have caught up with you. It is time to pay your bounty."

"You paid? Surprising."
"Hmm… Pleasure doing business."
"This money's filthy!"
[Flee] I won't pay the bounty.
"Another runner! What did I expect?"
"Criminals are all cowards!"
"I will end you!"
"You defy the law for the last time!"
"I was hoping you would do that."
"You're not going anywhere!"
"I doubt you'll defeat me!"
"I suppose you're a criminal after all."
"Brave! Stupid! But brave!"
"I love a good chase!"
"You'll motivate me to violence, cur!"
"And now the inevitable will begin!"
"If you get blood on my boots, I'll kill you twice!"
"Have at thee, villain!"
"You should have submitted!"
Male Dunmer

If alerted:

"Stop right there, s'wit!"
"Halt fetcher!"

Caught:

"One day I'll meet an outlaw who pays a bounty without complaint. Will this be the day?"
"Bah! All criminals are craven cowards and you're no different! Will you pay in gold or blood?"
"Another vagrant disgracing my streets. Typical. Just pay the bounty and move along."
"You have your crimes and I have my orders. Now pay up! I have more to do than just deal with you."
"I am in an ill temper, so just pay your bounty and be on your way."
"Criminals! So smart! Think they can get away with anything. Well, I'm here to tell you different."
"A dark day indeed when I have to deal with the likes of you. Pay your bounty and leave me be."
"Please, no explanations. I don't care why you did what you did. I just need you to pay your bounty."
"You aren't clever! The law found you and demands its due. Pay your fine or face the consequences."
"You owe a bounty. Don't even think of running. My knees aren't what they used to be."
"Almsivi knows your crimes…as do I. Pay up, s'wit."
"There's a bounty on your head and I'll see it paid in full. Might even bring a smile to my face."
"Wait, you're not who I…. No matter, turns out there's a bounty on your head as well. Pay up, then."
"I understand the appeal of a life of crime. So many good memories. But I learned to pay my bounty. Have you?"
"Please! Don't attack. I'm just doing my job. Can you give me your bounty and let this go?"
"This must be some dark plane of Oblivion where I must endlessly confront filth. Your bounty, please."
"Yet another useless s'wit of a criminal to waste my time. Give me the bounty and go."
"If it was up to me, I'd just have criminal filth like you killed on sight. It'd be less of a hassle."
"I dare you––just give me an excuse and I'll bash your ugly teeth into the back of your head."
"I don't know if I can do this guard job. My heart is pounding! I don't like confronting people."
"The bounty is an opportunity for you to set yourself right with me and with the gods."
"Just my luck, bumping into the likes of you. Know what this means? Just more dung to deal with."
"Anyone who says crime doesn't pay hasn't me in action. My deals with criminals always turn a profit!"
"Another fetcher? How many of you are there? Let's get it over with. Hand over your bounty."
"I hope you realize that I have better things to do. Please. Let's make this fast and easy."

"Another happy customer. Huzzah."
"Please, just obey the law for now on."
[Flee] I won't pay the bounty.
"You brought this on your own head!"
"Did you not notice my foul mood?"
"Why do they always want to fight me?"
"I gave you a chance!"
"Why couldn't you take the deal?"
"Please don't hurt me!"
"You people make me mad!"
"Why do I always get the violent ones?"
"No, please! I want my mother!"
"Is this how you choose to die?"
"Why do criminals never trust me?"
"Oh, Dumac take you! I can't tell you how this grates on my patience. Pay your bounty and begone!"

If alerted:

"Go no further, milk-drinker!"
"Halt right there!"
"Freeze, scum!"
"Hold it right there!
"I bid you surrender!

Caught:

"Surrender and pay, scum!"
"Your compensation, now!"
"This ends now, outlaw!"
"Pay or suffer, villain!"
"You bounty, forthwith!"
"Honor your debt, milk-drinking scum!"
"Pay or die, criminal!"
"Don't be a milk-drinking horker! Pay your bounty and set your mind at ease."
"The use of force is only required if you resist. If you pay your bounty, you can avoid it."
"If your crimes were more drastic, I'd be required to attack on sight. Instead, you may simply pay."
"There is no clemency for criminals here. You must pay your bounty, or I will use force."
"There are laws here, and it's my duty to enforce them. You have a bounty and I must collect it."
"You have been accused of a crime and I am authorized to demand you pay bounty."
"You have a criminal record. I can help with that! I'll gladly accept payment to make this go away."
"Good day! You're not like those usual horkers I deal with. You look like you have plenty of gold."
"Whatever offense you may have committed, they have been recorded, and the bounty is due."
"This isn't about innocence or guilt. You have a bounty for crimes committed and I must collect it."
"Gods-cursed criminal. Pay the bounty and get out of here."
"You don't have to confess anything. You just have to pay the gold and your name is cleared."
"No one can evade the guards forever. Just pay your bounty and then it's no longer a problem."
"A life of crime has its ups and downs. You had to know your luck would run dry. Now you pay your bounty."
"Some guards might try to squeeze extra gold out of you, but all I ask is that you pay what you owe."
"What's the smell? Oh yeah, a stinking criminal. Pay the bounty. And take a bath."
"I like you, thief. Give me your gold and you'll be free and clear."
"I'd prefer to handle this all civil like, but I can get furious if you like that sort of thing."
"The suggested action is that you pay the fee for your bounty."
"You owe a bounty for your crimes, and I'll accept not a coin less."
"It was a golden opportunity. Who hasn't been tempted, am I right? Just pay me and go."
"We have a common purpose, friend. You want the law to leave alone and I want your gold."
"Pay your bounty, friend, and perhaps we can work something out later."
"I understand completely. Slip a little extra into your payment and I'll forget I ever saw you."
"A little corruption never hurt anyone, but I still need to collect your bounty."
"Will you pay your bounty, must I introduce your face to the ground?"
"Next time you break the law, make sure I'm not watching. Not that you're hard on the eyes."
Clemency
"Waste of my time. Get out of here."

"The penalty has been paid."
"Go and break no laws, you're free."
[Flee] I won't pay the bounty.
"That's your last mistake!"
"Die rogue!"
"You want to fight? Very well!"
"I am now authorized to attack!"
"Duty demands that I use force!"
"The horker wants to fight? Gladly!"
"So be it."
"Guess I'll have to kill you now."
"I can't let you walk away!"
"Ugly and dumb, eh?"
"Then we'll work it out in battle!"
"Violence? I can do violence!"
"Such a waste!"

If alerted:

"You, stop at once!"
"Cease and desist!"
"Stop! You owe a bounty!"

Caught:

"I love rabbit meatballs! Do you love rabbit meatballs? Pay your fine and we may one day eat together."
"A rendezvous? If you insist! But let's get your bounty handled first, shall we?"
"Where have you been hiding all my life? If we clear your name, maybe we can talk of other things."
"No one as attractive as you could be a criminal! Let me help you clear your record, all right?"
"I know, I'm irresistible. I hear that all the time. Let's keep this professional and settle your account."
"Has anyone said you have a fabulous jaw? After you pay your fine, I'll tell you more."
"I'd pay the bounty for you if I could, but such favors are frowned upon by my superiors."
"Well, look at you! I'm sure we can work something out so you can put this business behind you."
"All right, lawbreaker, time to pay for your crimes. You are going to pay, right?"
"Great news! You get to pay your debt to society in gold! Could be worse, right?"
"The bad news is that you have to pay a fine. The good news is I'm going to get a promotion!"
"I remember the old days when we would just pound your head in after a crime. This is much easier!"
"I've got orders to collect your bounty…. Very strict orders. Don't blame me, all right?"
"I…I need you to pay your bounty. If you refuse someone will probably chase you. Just fair warning."
"No need for concern. Pay the bounty and your name will be cleared."
"This doesn't have to be difficult. Pay the bounty and I'm on my way."
"The evidence against you is overwhelming, but there's a light at the end of the pass."
"Drunk? Of course I'm drunk! What of it? Give more lip and I'll double your fine!"
"Nothing to be ashamed of. We all get caught, eventually."
"I have a thought. Pay your bounty and I won't pull your arms from their sockets."
"What happens next is up to you. If you pay your fine, this all goes away. I prefer the other option."
"The law is reasonable, but you continue to snub your nose at it. Now you must pay."
"Give me some gold and I'll let you off the hook, no questions asked."
"You know what would make my foul mood even worse? If you decide not to pay your bounty!"
"Do I look like I want to talk to you? I just want to collect your bounty and move along."
"My mood is like a winter's storm, cold and unpredictable! Care to try your luck or will you pay up?"
"I almost never drink on duty, but I'm having a bad day. Don't ask. Just pay your bounty and go away."
"No need to worry. Just pay your fine and be on your way."
"You action screams guilt. I see no contrition. That pains me, it really does."
"It's nothing to be proud of, but it isn't the end of the world, either. Just pay your bounty."
