Delvin Mallory

Delvin Mallory -

Delvin Mallory is a Breton thief who works as a highly skilled and highly ranked member with a wide variety of skills, including as an expert thief, master Lockpick trainer, warrior, tracker, hunter, and fighter, for the Thieves Guild in the city of Riften in the land of Skyrim, that he is a member of.

Physically, Delvin Mallory is 5 foot 10 inches in height, with fair-toned skin that can almost be considered pale, an athletically toned and broad muscular body build with hard planed muscles all his own and he is fit for his height and weight, and he has no hair on his head so he is bald.

Delvin Mallory also has attractive facial hair of stubble on his chin and the lower half of his cheeks, attractive stubble for a mustache, and hazel brown eyes. Delvin Mallory is considered very handsome and attractive but mysterious, strong, intelligent, and deadly.

Delvin Mallory is also a high-ranking member of the Thieves Guild in the city of Riften, although he also lives in the city of Riften, the land of Skyrim. Delvin Mallory wrote the book Shadowmarks, which helps members of the guild.

The book Shadowmarks recognize both valuable targets and places that should be avoided when doing jobs to avoid getting in trouble with the Hold Guards and potential jail time or bounties on their heads.

Delvin is the brother of Glover Mallory and unknowingly the uncle of Sapphire. He also has a younger sister, according to the Bonemold Formula. As a friend of Astrid (he makes friendly comments on Astrid after she directs the Dragonborn to meet Delvin as part of "The Silence Has Been Broken"), and the Dark Brotherhood, he often takes fine jewelry and items on credit, when contracts pay the Brotherhood with them instead of gold.

When Amaund Motierre employs the Dark Brotherhood to assassinate Emperor Titus Mede II, he pays with an amulet of the Elder Council. Astrid sends the Listener to speak with Delvin at The Ragged Flagon to receive credit for the amulet.

Although suspicious of how the Brotherhood came to acquire the amulet, he willingly accepts it. When Delvin was a new member of the Thieves Guild, he attempted a robbery in an unspecified tavern that resulted in him accidentally committing murder. Gallus, caring for Delvin, sent him to live with the Dark Brotherhood for several years until the heat caused from the murder died down.

It was here he developed a relationship with Astrid, which ended when he left the sanctuary. After the scene involving Mercer angering the Guild, Delvin will have a line of dialogue about betrayal, and that it's "like the Dark Brotherhood all over again."

This could indicate he was in the Brotherhood and betrayed by them, or even by Astrid herself, though it leaves much to speculation because there will be no other discussion on the matter. Astrid will only smugly reveal that they have a "history."

It could even indicate that he, like Astrid herself, felt betrayed when the Night Mother did not choose a new Listener and let the Brotherhood decline. If the Dark Brotherhood questline has progressed to the point that the Brotherhood is now located in the Dawnstar Sanctuary, he will sell a few things to improve the sanctuary during the quest Where You Hang Your Enemy's Head.

What he sells includes but is not limited to being New banners for 1,000 Gold, Poisoner's nook for 5,000 Gold, Torture chamber for 5,000 Gold, Secret e
