Elder Scrolls: 10 Best Dark Brotherhood Assassinations

10. The Lonely Wanderer

This is more an investigator quest than an assassin one, and it ultimately serves to place you in the shoes of a proper assassin, hunting down and researching your target so as to ascertain the best possible chance to take care of them.

The quest begins by simply giving you a name. The name of your target to be more precise. You are then forced to ask around, hunt them down and get clues simply through your own decisions. You can search the designated city top-to-bottom or you can find his home and raid his possessions to get the edge.

It is the perfect example of simplicity done well because sometimes, just cutting away the usual game tropes of waypoints and descriptions can create the most memorable experiences. Removing the hand holding allows you be a proper assassin.
