Sorry to dig this old thread out lads...
I was roleplaying a simple warrior style character, and traveled through the marches south of Solitude. At some point I had to cross a river to continue my journey towards the city, so I took my armour off and swam through the cold water. On the other side I just put some regular wool clothes on, as the city gates weren't too far away.
On my way upwards a random encounter with vampires and death hounds kicked in. I had no time to get my sword out of my bag, so I drew my dagger and fought alongside the guards against the undead. They were however soon killed without much effort, so I ran down to the harbour, got my longsword and bow and started shooting them from afar. With the help of the other guards there I managed to kill off all vampires, with nearly no health left, all guards dead beside me and slowly freezing to death as I only were simple clothes.
Barely gotten away with my life, I visited the Inn and drank some mead to celebrate that I was still alive. With the loot I collected from the vampires, I managed to buy some decent clothes in the shop next door.
A really outstanding encounter which I still remember as if it happened yesterday. :X
