In Oblivion, Is there a way of Joining the Dark Brotherhood, with Lucien Lachance dead?

In Oblivion, Is there a way of Joining the Dark Brotherhood, with Lucien Lachance dead?
When Lachance first came, I accidentely hit him, and (since I was in the Nine's priory) The knights finished him off. Is there a way of joining the brotherhood, or is all that permanantley sealed? Could the command console be used to somehow skip Lachance's role? Thanks.

Are you sure he is dead? I have tried killing him and could only knock him unconscious. If he really is dead, do as the other guy said and go to an earlier save or consult on the forums.

I have not heard of this happening lol. I would assume no, since he is in a majority of the latter missions, and he is already dead. Try reverting to a save before that, or go to the Bethesda forums and ask.

Answer 3
No, if you kill him you won't be able to finish the dark brotherhood. Check this site for more information www.uesp.net

Answer 4
All the other answers are worth trying, you could also try looking on a site like gamefaqs.com for the console commands as there's one to re-animate corpses (assuming you know where his body is)

Answer 5
To my knowledge , no. However on PC there is a reanimate corpse command from the command console. I'm not sure if this will work with him though since he's a principal character. Worth a try though...
