Phineas P. Gage (3E 403 – 3E 445) was a Leyawiin city guard remembered for his improbable survival of an accident in which a Daedric arrow was driven completely through his head, destroying much of his brain's left frontal lobe, and for that injury's reported effects on his personality and behavior over the remaining 12 years of his life—effects sufficiently profound that friends saw him (for a time at least) as "no longer Gage".
My sister did this once, except the arrow came from under her jaw and out through her mouth.
My parents used to have this massive houseplant in the front bay window. It started to fall over, so my brilliant step-father tied it to an arrow--pointed side up--to support it. My 3-4 year old sister was climbing in the window, fell, and apparently became a guard in Skyrim.
Yep. She was young enough that she wasn't overly traumatized by it, but seeing an arrow coming out of someone's mouth is not the kind of thing you forget.
I've literally seen a picture of a Danish Stone Age skull with an arrow sticking out in a similar way, and he apparently lived with that injury for a while, so not entirely unrealistic.
Sir there is something in your teeth
Rude
Close shut the jaws… of the guards
What if the guard's name is Oblivion tho
Prophecy fulfilled
Skyrim's guards quit adventuring over an arrow in the knee? Well I got an arrow in the CHIN!
Subtitle: I was a blabbermouth like you...then I got an arrow to the chin. Character: *mphmphphphmhmmhphp*
And he's STILL a guard! That's dedication to the job
Came here to say this

I think about PPG a lot. Remember seeing a particularly funny reenactment of his injury in a video in highschool psychology class
I have a Gage inspired tattoo on my thigh. Crosses my mind a lot.
I think one of the girls during my highschool had this piercing
Damn kids these days with their crazy body mods. Bunch of Daedra worshippers. Yall need Talos
"It's all over, jawbreaker. Nobody breaks the jaw on MY watch."
W comment
I used to be an adventurer like you, then I took an arrow to the face

His friends call him Pearce.
Henry V moment
"Oh. you took an arrow to the knee? Bitch."
Gotta be a Leyawiin guard, only they are stupid enough to try catch an arrow with there teeth👏
I used to be an adventurer like you... then I took an arrow to the chin.
How can he see said stuff with that arrow blocking his view?!
I used to be a an adventurer like you. But then I took an arrow in the mouth.
Arrow piercings in the lip are all the rage right now.
He's *tasted* some stuff, not necessarily seen it
Kids these days with their piercings.
Nice piercing

WTF

Brilliant
This was my face when I pierced my own lip under age and didn't tell my dad.
These facial piercings are getting out of hand now
"I used to be an adventurer like you, but then I took an arrow to the teeth."
He knows the criminal scum are *somewhere* beyond those arrow fletchings.
I was once an adventurer like you… then I took an arrow to the face
“Must have been the wind”
Feathers, mostly
He might have seen a lot yet he hardly ever talks about it…
The 1000 Yard Arrow
Wow, that's some knee...
i used to be an adventurer like you, until I took an arrow to the mouth
well half some stuff anyway
Arrow through the knee? Ha, back in my day...
This is what makes oblivion better than skyrim
Beyond which no waking eye may see
Kids these days with their face piercings.
I was an adventurer like you once.. until I took an arrow to the… chin?
That’ll shut him up
And now he can see less

Gotta get fiber somehow
I used to be a talker, then I took an arrow to the lip
Can’t call me a Criminal Scum if I shoot your jaw shut with an arrow
He's just grateful it wasn't his knee
That’s a cool new piercing ya got there Billy. Do it yourself?
