The first bit of dialogue when meeting Rumarin from the Interesting NPCs mod. Spoilery only if you've never spoken to him before.

Rumarin: Wow, that was a frightening experience. The Nords should really consider burning their dead. Although granted it would make opening urns a lot more harrowing.

• Dragonborn: Are you okay? The skeletons must have surprised you.
  
  Rumarin: Oh, I'm fine. Don't worry, that's not blood on my face, it's makeup. No, I'm sorry, "war paint." Doesn't help much in actual war, though. But you did great. That's why you get first shot at robbing these graves.


• Dragonborn: Frightening? If you're a coward maybe.
  
  Rumarin: Well, if was a coward, the last place I'd be is out here. Although I do my best to avoid combat whenever necessary. For instance, that treasure over there? All yours. Those bones won't be needing it.
  
  
  • Dragonborn: I hate to do it, but it's their fault for putting gold in their coffins.
    
    Rumarin: Yes, the markets in Sovngarde must be awfully expensive given how desperate they are to take their possessions with them.
  
  
  • Dragonborn: No thank you. I honor the dead, and would never steal from them.
    
    Rumarin: You must not be a very good adventurer then, but you'd make an excellent priest. They just steal from the living.
  
  
  • Dragonborn: Yes, I'll be taking everything here. Whether the dead like it or not.
    
    Rumarin: Yes, it's almost rather adorable the way they think they can still spend it. And even if they could, what would they spend it on? Traps, probably. Although I imagine the only thing a skeleton fears are dogs.
    
    
    • Dragonborn: What's your name?
      
      Rumarin: The name's Rumarin. Professional adventurer, bladebinder, and grave robber.
