Just another little bit about my character's quest to kill dragons in Skyrim. No spoilers on this one...
-----
Viresse La Crosse hid behind a boulder, cradling her burnt arm against her chest. Panting, she peeked out to see the dragon staring at her hiding spot. Knowing she was about to die, she pulled out her mystic book and flipped to the 'USE ONLY WHEN YOU'RE ABOUT TO ENTER OBLIVION. NOT THE PLANE, THE STATE OF BEING! REALLY! WE MEAN IT' section of the book.
Looking at the words printed there, she nodded and took a deep breath. Looking back at the dragon, she said the words guaranteed to kill anything.
No effect.
"What the -bleep-!" Viresse shouted as the dragon sent flames at her again. "It was supposed to work!"
Then, she noticed the small print in her book. 'not guaranteed to work against dragons due to the nature of their size and souls. sorry.'
Cursing in many languages, she stuffed her mystic book back into her backpack and ran from the now too hot boulder and started to search for another hiding spot to heal herself for the next round of trying-to-kill-the-dragon-before-it-makes-her-toasty.

In the Elder Scroll games, there's this neat little console cheat code. You hit ~ to get into the console, click on a character and type kill. Hit enter, and voila, dead. You can then rifle the body without worrying about people thinking you're a murderer.
The code works in Skyrim. I tried it. Stupid mark wouldn't go into a shadowy area so I could stab him a few times to collect my assassination money. -grumble grumble-
It just wouldn't work on dragons.
