Akaviri exists you fucking pleb

Nice meme friendo. America is still 71% white.

Are you retarded?

Redguard - Amalgation of MENA cultures

Imperials - Romans+Italians

Bretons - French+Celtics(mostly reachmen and witchcircles tho)

Nords - Germanics with a bit celtic

Dunmer - unique

Argonian - mesoamerican/south american natives

Khajiit - A bit gypsy other unique

Bosmer - inspired by native north americans

Altmer - unique/generic Elves ( they are still cool tho)

Orcs/Orsimer - inspired by mongols/Turkics

Imperials are based on southern euros though.

It's one big play on the Roman Empire.

also this

*Khajiit - a bit gypsy otherwise unique

Dunmer are Japanese, Altmer are Chinese.

>Akaviri existed you fucking pleb
FTFY
I think he may be basing it on some of the Summer in Morrowind's weapons and architecture. They also have a South Asian type of caste system.

Akaviris are CLEARLY asian m8. Dunmer and altmer are unique fantasy races.

What about Polynesians/Abos/blacks/indians?
Did the creators just ""forget"" them?

Akavir still exists. And they invaded eastern tamriel several times which lead to some cultural influences in tamriel like the formation of the blades who use literal katanas

Dunmer have a lot of influence from Japanese culture though.Just look at all the Houses like Redoran and Telvanni, clearly they have similarities with the different shogunates

Eastern Europe is left out aswell

>Blacks
Quite literally redguards m8
>Polynesians
I think the Islanders between Tamriel and Akivir fit the bill, but we don't know much about them.
>Abos
Who cares
>Indians
The Dunmer share some cultural traits with them, but they also share some with southeast asians, and central asians as well.

Here we go:
>Altmer
Clearly britbongs — snobbish ugly motherfuckers
>Redguards
Africans
>Danmer
You're right senpai
>Ayleids
It's ancient greeks you dumbshit
>Nords
Northern Europeans
>Orsimer
Native Caucasus ethnicities
>Bretons
Celtic and germanic people
>Imperials
Italians
>Bosmer
Argentinians
>Argonians
Your mom is the last argonian desu
Also gipsies are falmers

Yeah, Sky Haven was the remnant of Akavir before they were driven off Skyrim

>Bosmer - inspired by native north americans
Maybe a modern interpretation of them but the real ones used to do shit like burn forests to make hunting easier and I don't remember Bosmer with war clubs and stone age weapons.

Redguards can be black since they are also based on moors (like those in mauretania) Indians are also partly part of Redguards. Maormer/Sea Elves have a bit of polynesian inspiration

This
Forgot the Maomer

Loremaster and creator TES said he didn't think of direct paralels with real life. I asked myself in an AMA.
Akavir will exist plebs. Get on my lore level

>Arabs/africans
>Americans are Imperials
>Russians are Nords

>Altmer are Chinese

>Religious zealots are Chinese
OK

>People who can't make a ball point pen in 2017 are one of the wisest and most powerful races.

Thats if you include hispanics,who are half white,and thus should be classified as mixed.

>Akivir carries many asian names
>Is the eastern continent
>Imperials are tanned like the image of a southern euro
>They wear roman inspired armor
>"NORDS"
Yup, totally no parallels.

They were repelled and according to lore eaten by snakemen.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Current year meme
>What is gunpowder

Have you seen bosmer weapons in ESO?

Nords also share a bit of slavic aspects

Dunmer were influenced by Akaviris (Asians). Otherwise they are unique

The thing with Redguards is that they dont seem to show anything people popularly associate with sub-saharan culture like Voodoo. They are predominantly MENA. They arent also just black you could also see Caucasian looking redguards throughout the games making them more resemble MENA people.

According to the wording they might have not actually been eating. They could have just been assimilated in some way.

We still also haven't been to hammerfell in one of the more recent, and fleshed out games.

It's possible we could see some tribalism in the inland or mountainous portions of the province.

Direct paralels i said. Otherwise there are paralels of course. Distinct asian style of Akavir, Roman empire-empire, jarls, breton etc.

The humans who lived there were eaten by tsaesci who are vampiric snake people. The other races who still live there are ka po tun monkey people, kamal snow demons and tiger dragons. Those 4 are constantly fighting each other

Thats true. The races in TES actually just resemble superficially real life people

All of these, were invented by the Vietnamese.

You fall under Bretons.

>Quite literally redguards m8
They seem more arab then african desu.

>I think the Islanders between Tamriel and Akivir fit the bill, but we don't know much about them.
Are they orcs with muh warrior culture? that might be it. Pic related.

>Who cares
I-I do in all honesty.

>The Dunmer share some cultural traits with them, but they also share some with southeast asians, and central asians as well.
What traits are these? For all of them I mean.

>moors were black meme

OP here. I was trying to draw similarties between our modern day political situation and the different races. Whites have the highest living conditions and are the most educated people, similiar to the Altmer. I don't think I need to explain Redguards. Dunmer are Japanese because most Dunmer are xenophobic and have/had their own unique religion (Tribunal/Shinto). Natives could be specified to Mesoamericans. Russians are Nords because they're also xenophobic and like to think of themselves as a great empire even though their land is a shithole. Turks are Orsimer because nobody likes them. Bretons are clearly Anglos, High rock is a bunch of "kingdoms forming one nation just like the UK being multiple countries forming one nation. Khajit are obvious. Americans are Imperials because they are currently the most powerful nation, just like the empire. Traps are bosmer because I want to fill a qt bosmer are traps because they're by far the most feminime race

Oh fuck off charlie
Vietnam didn't even exist as a proper nation when gunpowder and the compass was invented

This There are no parallels with a real life and there's no need for it. Almost every race in TES is absolutely classic for a fantasy
Nords? Le constantly-drinking-beardy-barbarian maymay
Elves? Say no more, just let split them into 3-4-5 ''''different'''' races and give them some special perks
>redguards
>mysterious warriors from the east meme
Even Tolkien made it up much better
>Khadjit and Argonians
The creators made them just to get some hype amongst furryfags, no jokes. There were khadjits and argonians in Arena for example but they looked almost like humans

>moors were black meme

What are the Falmer?

>Americans are Imperials
Yeah I really don't get this one...Maybe if Imperials or Altmer had a successfully rebellious overseas provence.

Abos are obscure. The closest you might get are the ashlanders in vvardenfell, and they're pretty much all dead.

As for the shared cultural traits, the best I can think of is the similar caste system. I'm sure if I played through Morrowind again or even went up to solstheim I might see more.

White people in 30 years

I mean mauretanians specifically
It should also be noted that redguards got more and more caucasian in the recent games. They are quite diverse looking. Actually every human in TES can have every phenotype possible. They are even black looking nords like vignar in skyrim (pic related)

>anti-social creatures of the night who hang around in their caves never going outside

sounds like Finns to me

Moors were Northern Arabian in biology mainly. They may have been a few Africans but they were few and in between.

African-Americans.

Ebin. But desu i like discussing actual TES lore on Sup Forums

WHAT NATIVES? FUCKING GERMAN
EDUCATION FFS

> Almost every race in TES is absolutely classic for a fantasy
At first it was. Later they wanna change it and this is as good as it gets. Still in their spiritual-mythical implications make the real differences but hard to get that from the games.

Probably unique

>What is forgery
How along with lying and cheating most of them attend our better colleges.

>Were once rulers of an advanced state above ground before being driven into degeneracy

Finno-Hyper Empire confirmed.

Me too. when you make a tes lore thread in Sup Forums you get 60% Morrowind posters 35% people saying that Skyrim was a shit game and 5% actually discussing the lore

Im not sure if I'd want to see and Akavir game. The amount of fury porn to come out of it would be nauseating.

They are the "le lost continent" meme

But if we had an Asian looking race it would get rid of the need for some of the autistic race mods out there.

Well Sup Forums doesnt play video games and /tesg/ is all about sexlab faggotry. /tesog/ is quite nice tho. Do you play The Elder Scrolls Online?

I mean forging metals etc.English is not my mother tongue.

Snow elves are Finns. Falmer are Finnic people after they are absorbed by Russia and turned to shit.

Yeah fair enough. You never really see black altmer's tho so they might be a stand in for Scandi's.

I see it now too. Especially the
>Known to be strong, intelligent, quick, aloof, and reserved; mostly keeping to themselves, the Dunmer are said to be ill-favored by fate.
top kek

I wanted to play it, but I was gonna wait a few months after its release to see how the reviews were looking. I'm not a fan of monthly description and the fact that the devs decided to shit on the lore kinda made me upset. I heard it has gotten better though

>Asian looking race it would get rid of the need for some of the autistic race mods out there.
>Asian Race mod
That is pretty autistic.

Khajiit and argonians already looked anthromorphic in daggerfall and morrowind long before the furry movement.

Pic related is guthrags mask as seen in ESO which belonged to a tsaesci warlord. They would probably look like half-human half-snake people. The other races are still unknown

I know but it was to good to pass up.

It's pretty good. I play it when I have some time.

We know there are tiger-like people Ka Po Tun and monkey-like people Tang Mo in Akavir

What do you guy's thinkhappened to the Dwemer? And
>mfw I first realized what the Falmer having white souls really means

Well its now pay to play with an optional abo service. It has a solid playerbase and its quite fun. Every playstyle is viable and there is a good RP community. You shoukd definetly try it

>long before the furry movement.
What are you talking about, it was pretty popular even in 90s

>They would probably look like half-human half-snake people. The other races are still unknown
Pretty interesting.

imperial-library.info/content/final-report-trebonius

Its disputable. They either fedora tipped themselves out of existence or numidium fucked them up or other theories. I love TES lore because nothing there is set. Every bit of knowledge is gathered through the lenses of in-universe sources who all have their own agenda or bias ( you should read "biography of barenziah" and "the real barenziah" if you want to see what i mean). Even C0DA is supposed to be disputed canon

*subscription
wait, they removed the monthly pay thing?

They achieved god status by becoming the Numidiums skin. All Dwemer are now one single god

Yes since over a year or two. There is also a good chunk of lore available.

>The other races are still unknown
>Pretty interesting.
Yeah. One of my favorite things about huge universes like the ES is how much they can expand on it. There's still so much to develop in the universe.

Yeah ignoring the high fantasy stuff like magic and dragon's, it's somewhat realistic in its own way.

>Yeah. One of my favorite things about huge universes like the ES is how much they can expand on it. There's still so much to develop in the universe.
To add on to this, I'm still a big fan of Pokemon even though I'm twice the average age of the people that usually play it.

>C0DA is supposed to be disputed canon
>Love Letter might just be one big fucking prank.
I didn't need that man

Nice, I might get it, what is the gameplay like?

There is actually more to CODA. You should read kirkbridws posts on r/teslore.
Its hard to explain but that guy is really fascinating.

Search on google "What is C0DA? An answer"

Its more reaction based than other MMOs since its an Elder scrolls game. This means that tanking and healing is actually fun.

Questing is very well done. They arent much fetch quests and no "kill x amount of y" quests. Every quest tells an unique story.

I know very well what C0DA is. I followed Tommarowind Today for a while after it came out.
I honestly think Bethesda should just bring the guy on board full time as a loremaster. It's obvious that it's what he wants to do.

Would you recommend the gold or the Tamriel edition?

He is actually still quite involved in the games. They hire him on a contract for each game which means he works for them whenever a new Elder scrolls game gets in production. But you probably wont see much of C0DA stuff in TES since it isnt the point of C0DA but you already know that i guess.

Bt his oher works stil there. Heimskrs speech in whiterun is an 1:1 excerpt from The Many Headed Talos. And the white-gold concordat and ysgramor and his 500 companions are both ideas from Kirkbride. He still is quite involved with the lore.

Wait i misread the "full time" part. Just distegard what i said you already know it i guess :/

I bought the normal edition during the last winter sale but i kind of regret since it want to buy the DLCs now and thats now more expensive. I would recommend you the gold edition. Its way cheaper.

>bosmer are native americans
when will this meme end

Right. IIRC correctly kamal demons were depicted as ice giants with icy spikes on their backs

Ayo hol up, I thought Mauritania wuz white maing?
mitchellkphotos.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/42_Mauri.jpg

What is the implication of them having white souls?

only humanoids(orsimer, imperial,nord,khajit etc) have black souls. White souls=not humanoid

They seem to be a mixed population

Wew what exactly did the dwemers do to this poor fellas besides blinding?

*these

excessive shrooms, torture, probably rape
dwemer things, basically

They transformed snow elves in literal animals, no different than cows or dogs

Its stated in skyrim that the falmer started to evolve tho getting more advanced and other things.

Maybe in TES12 they will have black souls again

What race are the Dwemer? I imagined them as Ancient Greeksas they are civilised and advanced but still very cruel.

Wait, they have white souls in Skyrim? Shiet boy, so that's what I should be farming

They're the Fedora race
