Ulrich Leland in Cheydinhal

Ulrich Leland is a Breton Knight and the Captain of the Cheydinhal city guard. His policies on hefty fines and strict enforcement has made him rather unpopular with most of the residents of the city, and even some of the other guards. Investigation will reveal that Ulrich is not entirely honest with the proceeds of these fines.

[edit] Related Quests

• Allies for Bruma: You are asked to bring in reinforcements for Bruma from the other towns.
• Defense of Bruma: Open a Great Oblivion Gate outside of Bruma.
• Corruption and Conscience: The Captain of the Guard in Cheydinhal is corrupt and the citizens want him removed.

[edit] Notes

• Although he is a guard, he will never arrest you. All of the guards' arrest dialogues are specifically for Imperial guards, but Ulrich is a Breton.
• After having him thrown into the dungeons (if you choose to follow that path), you can visit him in the city dungeons, just off the barracks.
• Before the related quest, Ulrich will not talk to the player. If engaged in conversation, he will tell the player, "Get out of my way or I'll have you slapped in irons." and exit the conversation.

[edit] Related Bugs

• If you complete the "Corruption and Conscience" quest, choose Garrus's method of having Ulrich thrown into the dungeons, then subsequently complete the Cheydinhal part of the "Allies for Bruma" quest, visiting Ulrich in the dungeons will result in him talking to you as if he were a soldier waiting for the Defense of Bruma battle. This is because Ulrich is added to the "MQ13 allies faction" faction even if he has been imprisoned. He will not actually talk to you in the dungeon - rather the subtitles will appear, but his lips do not move and he makes no sound. This has been seen to happen before the actual Battle of Bruma also, however, with him as a normal combatant.
  • This bug is fixed by the Unofficial Oblivion Patch.
