Skyrim thieves guild overhaul
  1. Thieves Guild Overhaul

Riften is said to be run by the Thieves Guild. I know it's possible to join them. Now I wonder if I alternatively could bring them down as well. I do not mean killing all the NPCs, but I would rather bring them down in a quest-line of its own.I want to know if it's possible to bring them down, because if it's not I would join them, even though I haven't stolen anything yet, as I want a rather complete play-through. And if it means selling this poor dark elf out. Please tell me it's possible;). I have gone in and went all out and tried to kill them.

You can't kill any of them. You might deal enough damage to bring them to their knees, but that's it. They won't die. Eventually, as you're fighting off the others, the one that was downed will get back up and rejoin the fight.Someone keeps trying to edit my answer - Let me say - This is not training.

They will kill you during this fight.Training is something you get once you join and you can go on different kinds of errands that will raise certain skills.They are essential characters, meaning they cannot be killed, unless it's for a quest. Just like Cicero.
