Balgruuf Was Lying to You

Skyrim is a game of many characters but perhaps one of the kindest and most honorable faces The Elder Scrolls 5 exposes us to, is that of Jarl Balgruuf the Greater. Ruler of Whiterun, Balgruuf plays a pivotal role early in Skyrim's main questline and depending on the Dragonborn's decisions he can remain a present force throughout the game. Known for his fairness and honorableness, few Elder Scrolls 5 players would ever dare think the Jarl has a secret to hide, however we'd be mistaken. Today we'll be exploring why Whiterun's Jarl Balgruuf the Greater may secretly be one of The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim's most devious characters.
