"Mathies is a kind and wise man. The Nords could use more like him. So could the Imperials."

―Indara Caerellia

Mathies is a Nord who lives near Falkreath.

BackgroundEdit

Mathies and his wife Indara Caerellia own and tend Corpselight Farm. The couple once had a daughter, Lavinia, but she was brutally murdered by Sinding near the town's lumbermill.

Mathies and Indara are first seen in the graveyard mourning their daughter at a funeral lead by Runil, the priest of Arkay and keeper of Falkreath's Hall of the Dead. After the funeral has completed they will resume thier normal daily activity, which includes tending to the crops at Corpselight.

Selling crops to Mathies counts towards becoming Thane of Falkreath, which will add the housecarl, Rayya, to Lakeview Manor if the player has Hearthfire installed.

InteractionEdit

He will buy vegetables for a small price.
