He's fucking ugly

haha

because he's a hideous corprus monster

'Nobody cared who I was until I put on the mask, and started turning people into Ash Zombies.'

He's a big guy.

4 Ur

He probably looks like shit underneath that mask.

Maybe he wants you to watch at his glorious abs instead of his face

Does he get to bring friends

Why aren't you wearing one?

why couldn't this have actually happened

You were supposed to take DKR seriously.

Because he probably has Corpus and has a face that looks like a rotting slab of meat.

I remember reading that Bethesda originally intended for the player to side with Dagoth Ur and join the Sixth House, but it had to be cut due to time constraints. There's some dialogue and unfinished stuff in game that alludes to this.

Who killed Indoril Nerevar?

NOT the tribunal

In Sermon 29 of the 36 Lessons of Vivec there are 36 listed numbers. If you go into each of the sermons and count the words, then take the word that corresponds with that sermon's number and line them up, you get:
>He was not born a god. His destiny did not lead him to this crime. He chose this path of his own free will. He stole the godhood and murdered the Hortator. Vivec wrote this.

Deepest Lore

The ending of the words is ALMSIVI

that's fucking great. It doesn't feel as stupid as anagrams do for some reason.

Who is 'He'?

>vivec wrote this
gee i don't know

There's another message. If you take the first letter of every paragraph in Sermon 36, it spells out: FOUL MURDER

Why doesn't the player represent house Indoril? Wouldn't that be cool if they used the return of the Nerevar as a PR campaign to take back power in Morrowind using that as a grassroots campaign? Could be a cool backdrop for a Morrowind sequel taking place in the mainland.

he's nwah and he was never a true incarnate, Azura just forced and bent him to fit the prophecy

Didn't Vivec kill Nerevar, but then rewrote history so he didn't?

Vivec is actually referring to Vehk The Mortal, the person Vivec was before he ascended to godhood. It's kind of an admission of guilt, but Vivec is no longer Vehk even if he remembers being him.

Was it mantling ?

>he was never a true incarnate
It's open to interpretation and player choice. You can believe you are the true incarnate or that you're just some guy who mantled Nerevar.

Sorry about the quality of the pic

Indorils are N'wah by definition, since they have no colonies in Vvardenfel

But isn't mantling a thing in the Elder Scrolls? Being the real incarnate or not, he becomes Nerevar by mantling him.

Everyone who is saying he has corpus and that's what has fucked up his face is of course wrong; Dagoth Ur got his shit kicked in so hard by Nerevar that he has to wear the mask for he cannot stand to look at himself without it.

But the fact that others who came before the player died when they tried to claim the ring of Moon-and-star and you don't means it's not up to interpretation anymore.

>Azura just forced and bent him to fit the prophecy
do we think she did this purely out of sympathy for the dunmer or were the false gods actually onto something where they would gain power that would rival the daedra? Because everything in the game point towards their power waning, except for Dagoth Ur of course.

He is the true incarnate if you will it. The prophecy is self-fulfilling in that sense; walk the walk and talk the talk and you become him. It doesn't matter if you were a reincarnation of Nerevar's soul from the very start because these things work retroactively. By the time you get Moon-And-Star you're Nerevarine.

they didn't die when they tried to claim moon and star
they died from other reasons
some of them even mentions they died from ash and blight monsters

There aren't any bodies around M-a-S, it's safe to assume if any random adventurer stumbled upon the Cavern of the Incarnate, and touched the ring, they would die. But you went through trials to get there, walked in the footsteps of Nerevar. The others tried to walk this path and failed.

maybe azura just didn't let them? Maybe the player has the necessary powerlevel to handle an artifact of that power. Does it really point towards him being the nerevar?

Its completely open to your interpretation. but given that most elder scroll end with your character become godly i think its safe to be you are Nerevarine. wandering the mainland killing monkey and tiger people.

Vivec writes lies.

Azura hates the tribunal because they replaced her by making themselves gods. She cursed the dunmer with their dark skin.

He's a poet, he could string truth into a lie.

Are the Thalmor really trying to wipe out all of existence? What's their endgame?

Fuck off filthy apologist, your false gods are murderers.

Just how would this have gone down had it come to blows?

>no fun allowed ):

>no fun allowed ):

Not all existince, just everything that was created due to lorkhan. They want to become the aedra gods and spirits they believe their ancestors were before lorkhan tricked them and caused them to become mortal.

Both men and mer are descendants of the ehlnofey who were basically et'Ada (gods/anuic spirits) trapped in Mundus after Lorkhan tricked the eight divines into helping him create it. They think that if they destroy reality they'll get to join the Magna-Ge (the children of Magnus) who realised Lorkhan was being a tricky dick early on and fucked off before it was too late. The stars are tears in Mundus that lead to Aetherius caused by the escaping Magna-Ge; the sun is the largest one and was caused my Magnus.

To leave Mundus. Auriel and all that stuff. Mer creationists.

nigga was a fucking god already and still surrendered to human Septim before any of them had CHIM shit

In a nutshell. They want to restore pure godly elf goodness.

Basically they think nirn is a plane of oblivion that elves are the deadra lords of. So they want to wipe everything out so they can purify their elven essence and start from scratch.

They claim to be from the island where they claim all Mer came from. So they have some credit in their beliefs. But mostly it seems to be bullshit.

Most likely they fucked up their interpretation of the Chim dream because the chimers were purer then them.

>CHIM
I imagined it would have played out in some mix between the neo vs agent smith fight while the surroundings are being fucked simultanously in a mindfuck alice in wonderland type way. A messy fever dream of conflict,

Why was Tribunal so shit?

...

Vivec would've made Talos suck his Muatra.

>Lorkhan is a trickster
Gee I wonder who's behind this post.

It wasn't. Clockwork city was dope and political intrigues with Barenziah & co was pretty interesting.
Furry & nordniggers expansion in the other hand was shit, yeah

lore and plot wise it was fucking great. Also Given its an expansion pack to a game with no level limit, limitless magic and enchanting. Lore is all we wanted.

Mournhold! City of light, city of magic!

I will always believe that Indoril Nerevar entrusted the tools and heart to Voryn Dagoth before leaving the Red Mountain to consult Vivec, Almalexia, Sotha-Sil, and Azura. They agreed that the tools and heart should be destroyed and returned below the mountain. There Voryn Dagoth had already been tempted by the Hearts power and siphoned a piece of it, becoming Dagoth Ur in the process. He refused to give up the tools, claiming he's guarding them. Indoril Nerevar kicked his shit in to the point when Dagoth Ur fled in fear of his life, but Nerevar was left weakened from the fight.

He asked his three friends and advisers to destroy the tools and the heart, but they felt the power from it and betrayed their King, friend, and lover for the promise of the heart's power.

>Vivec's words and scripture points to this.
>Dagoth Ur's words point to this.
>Almalexia's insanity brought on by the grief she harbored for betraying her one love for centuries points to this.
>Sotha-Sil's fixation with the heart and the tools became his undoing down in his Clockwork city at the hands of Almalexia.

Nerevar Forget!

The quests are kinda shoddily designed.

Why are you so shit?

Why was Sotha Sil killed? Cant remember shit from the game

Almalexia went batshit crazy and killed him
It's a shame you'll never get to have a good talk with him

>knock knock vivec
>this is septim
>give me morrowind
>o-ok here you go
lmao

Tapping the heart rewrote history itself, creating a fusion of timelines where Vivec always existed and where Vehk stole Godhood. The Tribunal are equal parts guilty and innocent but mostly guilty.

Why do you assume Indoril was immune to the temptation of the Heart's power?

>here, take this giant robot god. just make sure you'll wreck the shit out of the altmers with it

So where do you guys get the time to sit down and read all these in-game books

I wanna be a loremaster

Because he was Azura's Champion.

I always thought it was less of a physical "time got changed" and more of a case of "history is written by the victors" kind of situation.

Found most of it on the web, read it on my e-reader on my free time.

Yes, yes, I have autism

nah.

Vivec just preached his religious version of what happened and buried the truth with lies.He could not afford to have the tribunal lose power. Also a few people in game seem to know what really happened.

That's a fun theory. Maybe he wasn't maybe that's how he was reincarnated. Maybe that why you survive corprus.

be over 30 and have played all the games and read all the in game books. Online has pretty much everything as well.

You survive corprus because the raddest fucking wizard in Mundus cooks up some sick ass brew that cures the blight part of the disease but maintains the divine qualities.

Some of it is still silly, but overall it's better than expected.

Some guy theorised that all of ESO actually took place inside of Coldharbour which would explain why things are so fucky.

Total War: The Elder Scrolls

>It's not to late for my mercy

What did he mean by this

youtube.com/watch?v=8Adw5OfxTKs
>Tfw you will never play Morrowind with graphs like these

fuck my computer

Mercy = Quick and painless death.

As opposed to a swift death in combat?

Well, part of it is in Coldharbor because Mehunas Dagon is trying to eat Nirn. The whole game is happening because of his influence. I just thought they were doing something fucky like retconning Alessia's Covenant into Daedra worship in the First Era, not putting it in-between the Remans and Septims where they never really explained how the Dragonfires were still lit.

*Molag Bal

because by the time you get there you are swimming on daedric weapons that you sell for full price to your crab bro and use that money to train all your skills so theres no real reason to want to do quests anymore

Right. It was one of the two.

>get morrowind overhaul
>silky smooth 3fps on most towns
What specs do I even need for this shit I know a 770 is outdated and my i5 4430 isnt really that much of a power house but still

Where do I find this fucking faggot Khajiit in Vivec for Caius Cosades? I cannot find this milk drinking gypsy anywhere, I'm in the right compound, Olms Almes or some shit.

redguards > argonians > dunmer > bretons > khajiiti > nordniggers > dumbpereals > fargoths > jew elves

prove me wrong

He is insane from constant use of the power of Lorkhan, no wonder he's that kind of asshole calling you a friend, stabbing you in the back and telling you to run away at the same time.

>try playing oblivion after doing a playthough of morrowind
>go from moving at super sanic speeds to molasses speed

Lorkhan IS a trickster, he tricked the Aedra into pouring their power in creating the world, which is the main reason you pretty much don't see their influence or even hear them. And its the fucking reason Auri-El killed Lorkhan and teared out his 'heart'.

Go to the sewers user

you can't go as super sanic fast as in morrowind, but if you level or buff speed you can still easily outrun horses

I did there's just a different cat nigger and the only option to talk to it is "my trades" to which she replies "I have no trades fuck off"

time to get skooma addiction

Interestingly we don't know any of the concepts for Lorkhan, unlike most immortal/timeless beings that belong to something, his motives are unclear and his actions make little sense.
