Suroniir

Suroniir is a High Elf master animal handler from the conservatory at Sil-Var-Woad. He recently purchased Tulip the glyptodon from a Khajiit merchant, and is trying to get her to learn some tricks. He is seen during a random encounter in Southern Elsweyr.

Dialogue[edit]

When you approach, you may hear his attempts to command Tulip.

Suroniir: "Fetch, Tulip! Come on! You don't even have to run. Take your precious time."
Suroniir: "Beg, Tulip! Beg! I'm begging, you can too!"
Suroniir: "Tulip! Shake! Shake. Come now. Shake! You're already bobbing up and down so you're halfway there."
Suroniir: "Play dead, Tulip! Play dead, girl! It's only pretend."
Suroniir: "Sit, Tulip. Sit! It is possible for you to sit shaped like that, isn't it?"
Suroniir: "Please, Tulip. You're making me look bad in front of the stranger."
Suroniir: "Come, Tulip! Roll over! I'll even give you a nudge if it's helpful."

If you speak with him, he'll tell you about his purchase.

"This creature is either as willful as she is intelligent or as lazy as she is stupid. Either way, I can't get her to obey a single command."
"By the divines, will this beast do nothing beyond bobbling and heavy breathing?"
"No beast can resist my masterful tutelage for long. I stake the reputation of all of Sil-Var-Woad's handlers on it—I will not rest until this stubborn creature does something cute on command!"
What are you doing?
"I'm attempting to get Tulip to perform a basic trick. It should be a trivial task for a master handler from Summerset's Sil-Var-Woad park.
The Khajiit who sold her to me spoke highly of her intelligence, but it appears that the trick is on me."
