Mudcrab Merchant

What about a Mudcrab Merchant? I think it’s very funny and interesting character.

Give him a pipe to smoke,

I absolutely love it! You can give him a pipe to smoke, that would be so awesome :D We'll need to figure out steam particle effects for Yagrum anyway, so he could as well be smoking. I don't really know why, I just love the idea. That shellring is an amazing touch too ;)

Love the concept, as it gives

Love the concept, as it gives him a unique look to distinguish from the other mudcrabs. Plus the smoking idea from Dragomir would also be interesting.

According to the Mudcrab

According to the Mudcrab Merchant's dialog, he's drunk.

Mudcrab Merchant is looking

Mudcrab Merchant is looking glorious, glad we are differentiating him more from the normal mudcrabs. Also getting Harry Partridge to do it would be hilarious.

Creeper needs to have little

Creeper needs to have little jingly bells on his ears, like in Kirkbride's concept (130, 131). Best base it off Rav's scamp too :P

He could have a satchel as well, overstuffed with patches, stains, and bulges. One that looks too big for him. :P

Updated

I did some modifications. I hope I RomanDubina will not be offended ;) Now it looks like true capitalist bourgeois exploiter. Agree with me or not I like that :P I was thinking about cigar but it was too modern. I added sack of gold instead of shell to emphasize how it is greedy.

I've done fast sketch how the island could look like or just nearest surrounding. (I know this is not beatifull)

1. Treasure cove built-up from trash(barrels, planks, moss) from leftovers from wreck. Imagine how mud-crab could built that, I think it could do that only in awkward, poorly way. Of course enter protected by key.

2. Flagstaff to help to navigate. Crab symbol

3. Some trash (several coins, bottles, desks etc.) to create mess.

Optional I will add mud-crab sth like 10k health and triggers like summoning two daedras when u attack it or constant summoning mud-crabs in nearby waters during battle (or just one big mud-crab boss). Creating most deadly creature ever in TES. When somehow u managed to kill it then u search corpse but u don't find the key to cove :P

Accepted or not it was fun ^_^

Ventriloquisting mage + crab

Ventriloquisting mage + crab is better than sapient talking crab i think.
Not so tale, vulgar magic.

It could be the work of Sheogorath or another Daedric prince, like how Creeper is Barbas.

I prefer more "natural" causes. By the way, not-depicted daedric princes in Skyrim is good step.

Well Creeper was a daedric

Well Creeper was a daedric prince in Disguise, I assume the Mudcrab Merchant is something like that, too.

"Tale of the Devious Trader"

"Tale of the Devious Trader" (a fan story about the mudcrab merchant's origins) is canon to me.

They were at the coast
Everybody had, matching scowls 
Somebody went under a rock
And there they saw, some mud

But it wasn't just mud
It was a mud-CRAB

Da da da da da da, DA DA DA DA

Mudcrab!

Da da da da

Yeah mudcrab

@iceflame542 I think now it's

@iceflame542 I think now it's better :P

I added Colovian, organic sunglassen and bottle of skoooma. For me it looks like a boss now :)

However If u don't like idea with cave with treasure it could be simple chest serving as a desk and on it some coins, paper, quill etc.
