J'zhar

J'zhar is a dead Khajiit witchblade found in the Alftand Glacial Ruins near Winterhold. His brother J'darr is nearby and still alive. Reading his journal, it appears that J'darr is most likely to blame; however, some Research Notes found in the previous room reveals that the Khajiit brothers were attacked by Dwarven automata.

J'zhar wears a randomly determined set of farm clothes (7 variants) or a belted tunic, boots (4 variants), and has a 50% chance of wearing a hat (3 variants). There's a small possibility of him carrying a small amount of gold and a lockpick.

After entering Alftand Glacial Ruins, a delusional J'darr can be heard speaking to his deceased brother, looking for the skooma that he believes J'zhar had hidden. "Where is it? I know you were trying to keep it for yourself J'zhar... You always try to keep it for yourself!" Unable to find any hidden skooma, his behavior becomes frenzied, convinced that the dead J'zhar is in fact trying to steal his skooma: "No! There's got to be more Skooma... Shut up! Shut up! Don't lie to me J'zhar! You hid it! You always try to steal it from me!" As you move closer, J'darr will assume you are part of the expedition. "What? Who is this, Brother? Another of the smooth skins looking for food? But this one wasn't trapped with us..."

Notes

• J'zhar was likely created with J'zargo as a base, as he still retains some of the latter's factions. This also results in a number of oddities, as seen below.

Bugs

• He's part of the College of Winterhold faction, despite never being found there. This inclusion could lead to his death triggering the Rejoining the College quest should he be reanimated and re-killed.
  • This bug is fixed by version 3.0.6 of the Unofficial Skyrim Legendary Edition Patch.
• Due to the fact that he's part of the Winterhold crime faction, should you resurrect and re-kill him, then you could theoretically receive a bounty in that hold.
