"Distinctive and strong, the Aldmeri Helmet offers significant protection without limiting visibility."
Watcher's, in the same vein as the Watcher's Blade and Watcher's Helm which did find its way in-game.
Their English descriptions are removed. However, the other languages are still intact. The descriptions listed below are combinations of translations of the available descriptions.
Watcher's Armor
 
::*French: ''"Les Gardiens portent rarement des armures, leur travail requérant un maximum de discrétion. Toutefois, lorsqu'ils sont appelés au combat, ils revêtent ces armures reconnaissables."
::*Italian: "Gli Osservatori indossano raramente corazze, poiché i loro incarichi richiedono molta discrezione. Quando però vengono chiamati in battaglia, portano spesso queste armature caratteristiche."
::*Spanish: "Los Vigilantes no solían llevar armadura, puesto que debían ser bastante discretos en sus actividades. Sin embargo, cuando se les llamaba al combate vestían estas armaduras distintivas."
::*German: "Wächter trugen nur selten Rüstung, da ihre Aufgabe höchste Diskretion erforderte. Sobald sie jedoch in den Kampf zogen, legten sie oft diesen charakteristischen Schutz an."
::*Russian: "Наблюдатели по самой природе своей службы редко носят доспехи. И всё же, случись им пойти в бой, Наблюдатели облачаются в специальную броню."''
 
:*Watcher's Gauntlets
 
::*French: ''"L'armure couvrant les bras et les mains utilisée par la section des Lames appelée Gardiens, des agents spécialisés en opération sous couverture."
::*Italian: "Questa è l’armatura per il braccio standard della sezione delle Blade chiamata Osservatori, agenti specializzati in operazioni in incognito."
::*Spanish: "Es la armadura básica para manos y brazos utilizada por el grupo de Cuchillas conocidos como Vigilantes, agentes especializados en operaciones de infiltración."
::*German: "Dieser Standardschutz für Hände und Arme gehört den Wächtern, den Schläferagenten der Klingen, die in geheimer Mission operieren."
::*Russian: "Это стандартные защитные перчатки Наблюдателей - воинов ордена Клинков, специализирующихся на нелегальной разведке."''
 
:*Watcher's Greaves
 
::*French: ''"Bien que l'on n'ait que très peu d'informations sur la structure de commandement interne de l'ordre proscrit des Lames, la rumeur dit que des “Gardiens” sous couverture seraient présents dans toutes les capitales majeures de Tamriel."
::*Italian: "Si sa ben poco della struttura interna dell’ordine fuorilegge delle Blade, ma si dice che ci siano degli “Osservatori” in incognito in tutte le maggiori capitali di Tamriel."
::*Spanish: "Aunque se sabe poco sobre la estructura de mando interna de la orden proscrita de los Cuchillas, se rumorea que los Vigilantes están presentes en todas las principales capitales de Tamriel."
::*German: "Obgleich nur wenig über die interne Hierarchie des für gesetzlos erklärten Klingen-Ordens bekannt ist, wird gemunkelt, dass sich in jeder größeren Stadt von Tamriel verdeckte “Wächter” aufhalten."
::*Russian: "О структуре запрещенного ордена Клинков мало что известно, но поговаривают, что глубоко законспирированные Наблюдатели есть в каждом крупном городе Тамриэля."''

Golden Harbinger's Gauntlets, Silver Harbinger's Gauntlets, Bronze Harbinger's Gauntlets
"These finely-detailed gauntlets, forged using ancient techniques mostly lost to time, will provide as much protection as ones made from Dragonplate, and are considered as such for the purpose of the Matching Set perk."
Golden Hammer of Champions, Silver Hammer of Champions, Bronze Hammer of Champions
''"This formidable weapon, once given as a prize to Grand Champions of the Imperial Arena, isn't just for show. It is in fact just as every bit as deadly as one made out of Dragonbone, and was often used by said Champions in subsequent fights."''
Golden Commander's Boots, Silver Commander's Boots, Bronze Commander's Boots
''"Once fashioned for the highest ranking officials of the Imperial Army, these stylish boots are as tough and durable as anything else you'll find on Mundus. They count as Dragonplate for the purpose of the Matching Set perk."

Quests
Saashi may have once been intended to say the following lines upon during The Founder's Statue.
''"We must convince Valentis' descendant to perform the ritual."
"Ah, splendid! You have brought back Valentis' heir!"''
The Lost Heirloom/Find Mac's Guffin, likely a test quest used in development. It would have involved traveling to a place called Thastla's Tomb to fight bandits and wights to retrieve the Jewel-Encrusted Sword.
"I must recover a jewel-encrusted sword that was lost in a dungeon raid gone wrong."
The following dialogue may have intended to appear in this manner.
"You look like a traveling adventurer! Can you help my family?"
''"Mac, my fool of a father, went to explore Thastla's Tomb and barely made it out with his life."
"As he escaped, a wight took a jewel-  sword that's been in our family for generations from him."
"Please, can you recover our family heirloom?"
"I'm too busy right now."
"Then I guess I'll use these reward Septims to hire mercenaries to get it..."
"Sure, I can do it."
"Oh thank you! Thastla's Tomb is due west of here."
"You are a brave adventurer, I know you can do it!"
"You mighty warrior! You brought back the sword!"
"Thank you for helping my family!"''
There may have once been plans for "elemental jobs" which may have added variety to jobs by imposing an extra challenge. Events may have been the form in which this idea came to fruition.

Gameplay
