What happened to Leyawiin and the Khajiit resistance fighters after Oblivion? Is it still a part of Cyrodiil?
Jayden Johnson
Unknown, though there hasn't been any mention of it changing hands.
Hunter Williams
Haven't been here in a few months, did the thread stop getting posted on Fridays? Are there new rules or something?
Joshua Peterson
Is Manny the most powerful (mortal) mage in Tamriel? If not, who is?
Depends on the weekend. If threads are started on Friday we will get two in on the weekend, the second one started some tine sunday. If it's started on saturday there will probably only be one.
This isn't a bad thing, a few weeks (months)? ago there was a lot more traffic but we seemed to be getting /tesg/ people for some reason, maybe because ESO. I have no clue.
Matthew Jenkins
The week befre last the thread went most of the week, to the point that Friday was skipped over for last weekend's thread. Probably a holdover from that.
Maybe The Sage?
Levi Smith
id imagine that like all political movements it burned itself out, or was snuffed out by the established government that recognized the threat of a potential rebellion
Dylan Murphy
Powerful is a pretty nebulous term. You also didn't specify a time period.
Azra Nightwielder could pull off some pretty impressive magical bullshit, and so can Fyr, but in very different ways.
new here, i gotta ask, did any of you get into eso? how?
Owen Edwards
Rolled 2 (1d100)
yes
Connor Ramirez
No, I am considering it though, since there's a Vvardenfell to go back to. Still I have never played any mmos except for 2007 runescape so I have no clue if it is even worth it.
Their in-game books are shit from what I have read, and there seems to be a fair amount of anachronisms and lore-butchery due to ignorance or laziness. I would need some convincing before I hopped on the eso wagon
Levi Price
Vehk, but that's mostly through cheats/console commands
Nathan Miller
I just can't be bothered to care about a huge MMO, especially when I don't even like the genre.
Ayden Sanchez
Eh, MMOs aren't good at keeping my attention. Plus ESO keeps switching stuff around so much I wouldn't even know how to start playing.
Heck, I don't even know if its subscription or not, and I hate spending too much money on anything.
>there is a whole ES community in Russia you will never interact with
Wyatt Davis
...
Leo Barnes
What do they talk about?
Michael Gomez
It it's anything like the Russian Mount and Blade community it's super weird and autistic.
Kevin Martin
I wonder what headcanons they have.
Anthony Robinson
I remember reading something in the past about powerful mages making their own planes of oblivion. Anyone have any details or sources on that?
Henry Lopez
So, is there any lore reason for that Dragon appearing from the false-sun in Blackreach? Or is it another case of Bethesda being Bethesda?
Andrew Cruz
Do we have any info on when did Dawnstar take place?
Robert Nelson
Probably the latter. It shows how old the dwemer were, their mastery over the land and creatures, even their potential understanding of the thu-um or the relation of the thu-um and tonal architecture. But uesp doesn't really list any sources so I guess it's there to be cool.
Jeremiah Cooper
Does the Elder Scrolls Universe support any forms of blood magic? What kinds? If you had the chance to what would you add in the same subject?
Jacob Butler
Not as far I know, no. Probably for the best - TES already has necromacy as the taboo magic.
Henry Bell
Ive never played it, but Ive kept up with the lore. Its meh. The only real appeal is being able to see previously unexplored parts of Tamriel, but the game really doesn't take advantage of these locations much.
The real shame of ESO is that thanks to it we will probably never have a main series game or expansion to one that focuses on Molag Bal or Coldharbour.
Jeremiah Hughes
Some of the rituals of the Forsworn and Hagravens in Skyrim seems somewhat blood magicy. These are never really elaborated on however, other then them being some sort of old magic.
Samuel Flores
Underking > Mannimarco
Wish I understood why they opposed each other though. Maybe because one is trying to die, the other is trying to conquer death?
Luke Young
That's kind of what mankar camoran did but I think he had help from Dagon
Adam Powell
Because Underking wants to protect the Empire, and because Mannimarco is an evil elf who wants to become a God. Naturally they would be opposed.
Ethan Wood
It was my understanding that they were mimicking Lorkhan in some manner and the magic they were using was influenced by that.
I could be wrong, as I'm pretty sure I read that here, but at least with the briarheart have some strong symbolism leaning in that direction.
ffs. I always play khajiit and this doesn't reflect well on me
Elijah Hughes
Wasn't that nigga Harkon doing some blood shield shit? Also Vampire Lord spells and powers
Leo Hill
Necromancy isn't even taboo tho
At least in Skyrim
Then again I have no fucking idea how that works. The spells not the laws
Ayden Morris
It's taboo in morrowind and oblivion.
Carson Gray
Its taboo with the Nords outside of the College of Winterhold as well, and the College keeps its acceptance of Necromancy quiet.
Anthony King
What can you tell me about Reman Cyrodiil and his exploits. He's sounds like an interesting guy.
Gabriel Carter
The guy out-partied Sanguine, for one.
Dominic Butler
He wanted to put a man on the moon and his last heir was assassinated
So a Tamrielic JFK
Liam Rodriguez
During the Middle Dawn he created a Space Empire and created Pelinel He also BTFO the Akaviri invaders so hard they swore loyalty immediately
Nathan King
>o a Tamrielic JFK Nah, Reman was actually competent and not connected to organized crime
Hunter Thomas
He is obsessed with fucking things he shouldn't and coming on people he shouldn't.
Leo Green
It's hard to say, since we don't know what religious practices they follow. However, we do know some ritual phrase related to creating Briarhearts:
"Heart of thorn... bones of the wild... in life, Forsworn... ...rise from death, Blood of our Blood."
Personally to me it suggests a relationship to Hircine or nature in general. Some unofficial stuff presents them as like Native Americans - I hate it since it's done so shallowly, but could mske for inspiration on actual lore.
Wouldn't you if your dad fucked a mound of earth?
Henry Ross
We also know that Faolin the Red Eagle was the first Brairheat, and it allowed him to take the role of the Rebel in the ceremony, and that the ceremony involving ripping their hearts out has enough connection to Lorkhan than even Neloth thought it could be connected somehow
Jose Clark
>Some unofficial stuff presents them as like Native Americans They're supposed to be Picts, not Amerindians. Its supposed to contrast the British/French thematics of the Bretons and the Druids of Galen
Julian Kelly
The forsworn do have some Aztec undertones along with classical pict barbarian ones. Namely the shape of their weapons and how they rip out the heart of some people because of stuff related to their gods. Other then that they are pretty much just Picts though.
Blake Morgan
>I hate it since it's done so shallowly
Yeah the Forsworn are critically underdeveloped as a faction. Makes you wonder why they even bothered to include them, they are just Reach Bandits.
Compare them to something like the Ashlander tribes, it really shows how Bethesda has changed.
Jacob Morris
Just look at the Silver Hands. Literally just bandits with shinier weapons.
Joshua Miller
Zurin Arctus is Arkay
Nathan Murphy
But isn't Zurin suppose to be part of the trinity that makes up Talos. He can't be a god and one third
Andrew Cook
Yeah, you only really get minor depth on them from reading a few scattered lorebooks, but otherwise there's not much on them. Which is a shame, because the Reachmen are an interesting people both culturally and geographically. They are Bretons who migrated back closer to their Nedic homeland, and mingled with both the Nords and the Orsimer. They're culture should be some sort of mixture of Traditional Nordic belief, Orsimer Malacath worship, and the Dirennei Elven Pantheon. They were the first Manmer to be encountered by the Nords, Live in what is essentially the lost fringe territory of the Rourken Dwemer, were once able to expel the Allessian Empire from the Reach, and were the major military force that Chulacain fought against before their loss against Hjalti at Hrol'Dan.
For a people that supposedly had such a presence in the lore, and would no doubt have an interesting culture, religion, and development over time, there's essentially nothing on them and in Skyrim they just amount to a disorganized force of pelt-wearing, axe-dragging daedra worshipers! And for some reason they keep attacking the local Orc Strongholds despite the fact it was supposedly the Orcs who taught them hedge-magic in the first place!
They could've been cool, instead they're just as bland and watered down as the rest of the bloody province
Adrian Gomez
>and mingled with both the Nords Not this shit again.
Jacob Murphy
I find it extremely doubtful a culture of people can exist in a location without "mingling" with the more native inhabitants of said location.
Elijah Anderson
Even when they hate each others' guts?
Cameron Phillips
Especially if they hate each others' guts. Take their women, rape them as much as you can, rape their men while you're at it. Hell, children I guess if you're into that. A goat is fine too. Doubt they would use contraception.
Hudson Ortiz
By Arctus I mean his previous incarnation, Arnand the Fox. As in, he was a god before Zurin was even born. Note, Zurin is also said to bare heavy connections to Magnus as well. When it comes to things like this you have to throw personal logic out the window and realize, that these aren't normal people we are dealing with. While Zurin is a part of Talos that doesn't mean he is literally the substance of Talos. Consider how Orkey, Arkay, and Xarxes are all the same thing.
Mind you this is all just a theory of mine, anyways.
John Gray
Is there any source that says they intermixed? Is there a source that says they didn't?
Robert Hernandez
PGE1 says that Reachmen had very little Nordic blood, at least by the time of Tiber Septim.
>Some say they are ghosts, waiting to be laid to rest. Others, that they are all that remains of the Snow Elves who once ruled Skyrim >Master Sadren Sarethi posits that Wispmothers are a necrologic state, a type of lich-dom developed by a now-forgotten First Era culture. Under his theory, these are no mere ghosts - they are a cult of powerful sorceresses who achieved eternal life through undeath en.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:The_Wispmother >For generations, the people of Morthal have told whispered tales of the Pale Lady, a ghostly woman who wanders the northern marshes, forever seeking her lost daughter. Some say she steals children who wander astray, others that her sobbing wail strikes dead all those who hear it. But behind these tales may lie a kernel of truth, for ancient records speak of 'Aumriel', a mysterious figure Ysgramor's heirs battled for decades, and finally sealed away en.uesp.net/wiki/Skyrim:Lost_Legends

The only thing you could use to date it is that going by the Cyrodiilic-sounding name of the Governor, it probably was at some time while Skyrim was part of the Empire.
Really, both Stormhold and Dawnstar (particularly the latter) are more or less forgotten games, and there's now a whole lot to them. Of all the mobile games, Shadowkey is the really neat one.
Luke Peterson
Tried the other thread and got no response. I've been playing Morrowind, and I've recently gotten to Bittercup.
Is it better to have 120 Endurance at Level 13 and increase health to insane levels especially late game, or increase Intelligence to 120 with Atronach sign and roll in all the magicka right now?
Matthew Bennett
Bethesda Quality.
Evan Allen

Oh my goodness, its the feet and face pic all over again. Oh my goodness no. This needs to stop. THey need to stop taking his feet and his face. This is so uncomfortable because its so real. THat being said, I think its time to loose some weight, get some prosthetic feet and cosplay as almalexia.
Ayden Perez
Unless you've modded it, the Bittercup shouldn't be able to raise attributes past 100. That said, early Endurance is generally the best option unless you're really hurting for magicka.
