oh guys! I just read in the strategy guide that if you visit one of the dragon mounts during a certain point in the main story you can see Alduin resurrect a Dragon!

 

[Ugeine]

That happened in my first play through. I nearly wept with joy!

I keep finding the Dragon Mounds by accident. I wish there was a way to mark up the map with them. Guess I'll have to print out one of the detaild maps around and mark that up.

As for things to do:
- Become a librarian and collect all the books.
- visit all the dragon lairs
- visit all the ship wrecks

 

[Forumate]

I still need to do all these.

Punch one of the Jarl's bastard kids in the face, Only acceptable in Whiterun.

Try and shoot 15 rabbits with arrows after they start running from you.

This one is a real toughy kids, cut Skyrim off and go to the wondrous realm of OUTSIDE *gasp*

One of my personal favorites: Turn Riverwood into a nudist colony through pickpocketing, then leave all the items in the center of town. (I thinl they like the breeze)

She must have found the DoomStones, they have a book about them IG, and if you cant find it, search Doomstones on the wikia

You can see him resurrect a dragon multiple times, if you chance upon a dragon mound at exactly the right time. I have no idea what triggers this event, but so far, I've seen Alduin resurrect two dragons - once in Kynesgrove for the main Quest and once on the outskirts of Whiterun Hold. I was passing through the area, on my way to a different quest, when I heard a dragon roaring, thought, "Yay! I'll bag this dragon before nabbing those bandits!" I go running toward the sound, all set to lob a fireball at the beast and then notice that the dragon is a very odd color. And then I'm like "Oh plops, that thing's Alduin." I stayed out of sight until he resurrected his buddy and flew away. Then I happily aimed a barrage of fireballs right up that dragon's newly born bum.

Become a librarian and collect all the books.

And then read them all

Shoot down 20 birds with your bow. Crosshairs off.

Sometimes the arrows just get stuck on them and they don't die.

there's a glitch with discovering standing stones. even if you found one if you visit the same one over and over it will count all of them as separate stones
