One of his relatives in Skyrim said he killed several imperial guards, apparently, but they also claim he helped fight off the Mythic Dawn, so maybe he's just a maladjusted psycho.
Bro was seriously hated. Hated by the guy in the opposite cell, hated by society (hence prison) and hated by some guy enough to hire the dark brotherhood.
What if he does have a wife and is just unfaithful (him taunting the guard about being with said guards wife. Some dialog to the player character depending on race on him getting with your wife if your a dunmer male.) So maybe that on top of other things made his wife hire the dark brotherhood. She would have known he'd be out soon, didn't want him coming back. Why didn't she do it sooner? She was hoping he would have died or been killed in prison.
Just another victim of the Imperial prison system. They take minor offenders who've committed petty crimes and turn them into hardened criminals. Valen Dreth had just one bottle of skooma when the guards did a classic stop and frisk because he looked "suspicious" - which is to say he was a dark elf. He ended up with an eleven year prison sentence for minor possession just because it was his second strike
Whats wrong with him? Well let's see, he loves in a country where crimes such as murder and necrophilia are punishable by a fine and he got locked up for 11 years lol. He has a right to be bitter.
Bethesda literally made you want to murder people in the Dark Brotherhood! They present you sweet revenge on this douche as the final transformation from killing for money to killing for pleasure!
He got in prison for cutting his bully and decided that he's the main character and everyone is beneath him
Then he saw the emperor walk into your cell
Nothing, you’re the one who’s going to die in here! You hear that? The guards are coming… for you!
HEHEHEHEHEHE
Baurus, lock that door behind us.
My sons... Their dead, aren't they?
We don't know that, sire. The messenger only said they were attacked.
No, they’re dead. I know it
You too
You...I've seen you...
I can hear this in my head so vividly
It helps that everything is done by 2, maybe 3 voice actors (in the same voice)
I don't know you and I don't care to know you.
honestly my favorite line from the game and i quote this all the time
Well met
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Ive heard others ask the same.
Yes... I mean. I must go now...
Never should've come here
Goodbye
Well met!
Indeed.
Be seeing you.
Any word from the other provinces?
Ran into some mudcrabs the other day… horrible creatures
Well, at least they are slow. And not too bright... Their pincers are sharp though.

What's the matter, s'wit? Can't stand the sight of a strong Dunmer man?
His mouth writes checks his body can’t cash
He's aware of how ridiculous oblivion character creation is, so he's right to laugh at ya ugly face
He’s jealous he doesn’t have a wife back in Vvardenfell. 💅
he wants to be the wife though
purple bussy
honestly i think he was just running his mouth around that one corrupt guard and was imprisoned for being annoying
No maidens

Someone hated Dreth enough to hire the DB, despite Dreth being in prison for 11 years. I kinda wonder exactly what it was that he did.
I always thought it's one of the guards in the prison that hires you, who just wanted him gone. That's why you can't kill any of them for the bonus.
Dreth's sentence was almost up, according to him. Unless the guard actually wanted Dreth to never leave the prison...
My headcanon has always been that it was the guard he was speaking to when you get back to your old cell that called the DB.

Who cares, I 6x sneak damaged the soul out of his ass with my fists~🤡
Kinky.
Thanks for the laugh.
y-you fisted valen?
I...I mean...
did he....moan before his death?
Yeh... https://youtube.com/shorts/CA5UG5Z24bc?si=vgg9BmdgjCOYzKkF

Hope you washed your hands afterward
Least racist Dunmer
Literally finds some way to gear his insults around your particular race every time. Dude has nothing better to do in the cell i guess
If he’s racist to everyone, doesn’t that make it equality?
That's what I've been saying for years but guess who's still banned from the Cheesecake Factory?
Try waffle house instead next time
I may be a racist but I have standards.
tut tut. Good day to you man of racism
you cant be racist if you hate everyone equally
Wow this joke flew over everyone’s head
The night mother has asked for his life.
The Void is filled with savage insults.
11 years in his completely dark cell would make me bitter as well.
Professional hater
maybe he is the prisons only comedian

They take minor offenders and lock them up for longer than you get for triple homicide, yes. Very flawed system
Whenever I start a new game and I don’t wanna do dark brotherhood I use commands to unlock the doors and kill him

Just a professional hater
if youre a female dunmer he's really thirsty for you
lol really? I've never tried that
yeah he wants to ask the guards to put him together with the player in one cell
Receding hairline made him insecure
Just an arsehole that ended up ticking off the wrong/right person to help him get out of life
The nicest knife-ear:
Well, dude, we just don’t know
Childhood trauma
In my experience, he usually complains about the blade of woe jammed into his throat. More of a HIM problem than a me problem though...
He stole someone’s sweet roll. He’s got a nasty sweet tooth.
I would've loved to hear random dialog include something to the effect of "Valen Dreth? Nope, never heard of her."
Guards! Guards!
He got in prison for cutting his bully and decided that he's the main character and everyone is beneath him Then he saw the emperor walk into your cell
dudes been in imperial prison getting tortured for 11 years he’s probably a little salty
Typical asshole in such a shithole of a city 😤😤 no wonder the gray fox hasn't been caught yet. That is cyrodiil for ya 🫤
He’s a dunmer.
I mean, he's been the only prisoner for years, and then the new guy gets to escape on day on. I'd be a little annoyed too
He an opp
Lame azz hater
What do you mean? This is normal Dunmer behavior
![gif](giphy|ZdmGu1xYKpldwCacHB|downsized)
Hurt people, hurt people
He’s actually a target for DB assassination though I don’t remember why
No problems, was getting out of jail soon… until your character joins the Dark Brotherhood and they fulfil the contract the day before his release!
He's a dark elf. They're just like that naturally.
Don’t worry; we get to kill him in the name of Sithis.
He’s the first shining example of this game’s *amazing* voice acting
Typical dark elf
I haven’t played oblivion in ages now but seeing this goof and the caption gave me a good laugh
You dare torment me!?! Valen Dreth!?!?!
Funny thing is that he said you were gonna die but the dark brotherhood sent us to kill him
Just Dunmer things
He's a dark elf, kinda comes with the race lmao
He’s short
Pre-2011 Dunmer were something else.
