The Elder Scrolls Lore: The Khajiit

- The Khajiit are a feline race from the southern province of Elsweyr. They are cunning and agile. This video covers the general information on them, their history/ origin, their religion and of course the many different forms of Khajiiti.
This is where I would usually insert all my sources, unfortunately CZcams doesn't allow such long descriptions, ( as a long video such as this has a lot of sources), so instead I made a viewable Google Doc containing all my sources of information for you all:

~I apologize for the unfortunate upload schedule, I am unable to dedicate much time to making videos at the moment, but I will work on them as much as I can :D This was a requested video from a beloved subscriber, and I enjoyed making this video very much.

~Yes, I am aware the thumbnail is a Bosmer, lmao, for some reason CZcams isn't letting me create a custom thumbnail for it??? I will try to continue to change the thumbnail, lol unfortunately none of the auto generated thumbnails happened to be any actual Khajiit, the other choices were a Thalmor agent and Sheogorath lol. Even selecting those will automatically make it the Bosmer painting. I apologize if this video seems misleading because of the glitch issue here. At least it can get a bit of a laugh. - Hry
Probably the longest, most in depth video I've seen about the Khajiiti. Terribly underrated race. Thank you. May your road lead you to warm sands...
Both the Khajiit and the Dunmer have the most lore in the Elder Scrolls canon. I wouldn't exactly call them "underrated".
And the moons guide her path
Yeah... no. I kinda don't care about the Khajiit, and considering many of them sided with the Aldmeri Dominion, I despise them.
Hey, I'm using your logic, as you clearly like the Khajiit. So, based on that, everyone must like them, right?
Must be only the furries that you've hung around. Fudgemuppet group likes Dunmer way more than any other race.
Me petting our cat: - Khajiit is amused?
My wife: Wut?!
Apparently, Elsweyr is derived from a Kahjit expression that [Edit]“A perfect society is always Elsewhere”
Thanks Baracuta for the correction
"Perfect society is always Elsewhere".
Though in truth the name comes from the developers going “where do they come from? Idk.. elsewhere? Elyswere?”
And then it was time to release the game and the name stuck 😂
(Julian le fey said so)
khajiit*
Khajiit must go
Khajiit is needed
Elsweyr
Under rated.
Elsewhere
Got it?
@@hallacson8535 😑
If one khajiit reapts there name on more time I will rip off there arms and slap them with there detached arms.
Why did the hist trees help the argonians when the Daedra attack but not when they where being slaves???
I really hope in TES:VI we get Khajiit armor like we have Elven, Nordic, and Orcish.
Fur armor hah
@@sarahmvaz6772 no...that's just...wrong.
@@sarahmvaz6772 Rofl🤣😂😂
I'm just waiting for blackmarsh.... thats gonna be a while....

And may yours bring you to red water den
This presentation of the Khajiit was amazing, and it is probably the one of best I have ever seen! I especially liked the fact that you touched on the clothing and their life span. These little details are awesome! I already subscribed and I can't wait for the next video. Keep up the lore! You deserve more subscribers for the effort you put in your videos!
Why can the Khajiit never be found? Because it's always Elsweyr.
I never repost my old comments but this just seemed too perfect not too. I originally posted it a week or two on a FudgeMuppet video. PS. I hope I'm not flooding or overwhelming the comments section I just love this Channel. :)
@@creaturefeet3036 Oh no! Comments are always appreciated my friend! lol and I enjoy reading each and every one of them, and I´m so glad to hear you enjoy my channel! It is greatly appreciated! Thank you.
👍
Just found your videos because I wanted to brush over the lore knowledge and man you’re underrated! Excited to binge all the videos
Hi
By far the best illustrated of all the Elder Scrolls lore channels...great work and keep it up that way
Easily the best race in the elder scrolls. Much love for the lore
They were certainly the prettiest race in Morrowind. A good way to avoid the uncanny valley and start the game with the ability to jump more than one centimeter into the air..
Making them speak in Skyrim must have been a job and a half. The kitty kat is talking to you.
@ lmfao
I find the sea elves to be the most fascinating race because of just how much remains unknown about them. I really hope in ES6 they are fleshed out more and even have it so a dlc touches upon the sea elves ongoing war with high elves.
Great farmtools
Love listening to lore vids before sleeping and your vids don't have any sudden loud noises. Really nice vids too.
"Khajiit has coin if you have the content."
Khajiit has skooma for this one
This was a fantastic and indepth reading. I'm glad I came across this, absolutely not regretted. It's a shame we don't see more of the lore actually make an impact in the games, but I'm glad the material is around, if not scattered, to really breathe life into this world. I didn't even know they referred to the planet as "Nirn" before this video! Explains the name Nirn root then.
Your research on the Elder Scrolls lore is outstanding. Thank you for bringing this to us you are an absolute legend Lady of Scrolls.
So thorough! The khajiit have pretty complicated lore and you portrayed it not only well but in a way that was easy to understand.
Definitely the most detailed Khajiit video I have seen. Nice work. Also, I like how you use fan arts and screen shots to help visualize the different Khajiit breeds.
Can't wait for Elder Scrolls 17: Elsweyr
I wonder if granma Shirley watched this
Very thorough! I always wondered about the different types of Khajit every since reading of them in one of the Skyrim in game books. Thanks for uploading!
I just discovered your videos, absolutely amazing and criminally underrated!
I sent you a discord message, I hope you will take notice :D
Ah! Thank you so much! I am a huge fan of your content! I am honored by your kind words. Thank you so much again, I'll be sure to get back to you on Discord!
these r lies, don't believe the imperials
@@Cueyo123 yea imperial are not to be trusted
CommanderM117 well the Thalmor will soon learn that........ when the lire finally is developed at least
Your style is so engaging, matter-of-fact, and pleasant, if I wasn't seeing Elder Scrolls art I would swear this was from a museum presentation. I can't wait to watch the rest of your videos!
Khajiit and Argonian are my favorite race on eso, I created a snow leopard khajiit.
_These sands are cold, but Khajiit feels warmness from your presence_
My favourite ES race. Thank you for doing them justice.
I've been listening to several of your videos for the past few hours. Your grasp of Elder Scrolls lore is practically unprecedented; I'm genuinely impressed. You even manage to make the lore of the ES:O:, which I had always considered semi-canon, seem grounded and worth exploring.
This video was very well constructed, informative, and narrated perfectly. I have not seen someone be this knowledgeable of their game since VaatiVidya of Dark Souls. You've given me a greater appreciation of the Elder Scrolls lore. I am very happy that I've stumbled upon your videos. Definitely earned my sub. ❤❤❤
I just discovered your channel yesterday, and by Shor I'm impressed. I can't believe how incredibly detailed your videos are. Thanks for shedding new light on my favorite race in Tamriel. Your voice is as sweet as Moon Sugar, and you've just got yourself a new subscriber!
The single best compendium of Khajiit lore I have yet found on CZcams.
Great work, I shall be checking out the rest of this channel soon :)
Honestly the only video that took into account the lore from Eso, honestly impressive with the script and narration. This will be my go to channel for any TES lore, keep up the great work!
Amazing video and great research!
Mia Alvheim thank you so much! I greatly appreciate your kind words friend, I’m glad you’ve enjoyed the video!
I adore your TES lore videos. You sound so young, yet refreshing, and most importantly intelligent. Keep up the great work, and may the Nine Divines guide you.
Just excellent!! Truly a big thank you for the work you put in and for sharing it. 👍🙏
I have been an MMO fan for the past 15 years and a lore fan for just as long. I don’t think I have ever seen a more complete lore video. Just a superb job! You have yourself a sub for sure!
If a khajiit owns a cat, is that technically slavery?
Another amazing video....perfect music. It is such a joy to take all this info in!
6:05 This pic brought my mind straight to Kung Fu Panda for some reason 😂. I always pictured the Khajiit as styled more after ancient Egypt than historical Japan. Felt the Japanese style was always associated with Akavir. Also imagined Argonians as Aztec for some reason. Love seeing all the different artwork regardless.
Why am i just finding this channel now?
Love your content! Also love the high cats
Edit: i feel like i hear a sliiiight scots accent
Finally I have found an elder scrolls lore channel whose videos are over 10 minute long & NOT stuffed contradictory speculation
Ahh. This one and many others had forgotten the old ways. This has helped this one to understand.
Anyway good vidoe
Best video on Khajiit I have found on CZcams yet. Thank you for your hard work and keep it up. Also I love your voice 🐈🐾
You did a really good job and I learned a lot! Thanks
Great work !!! I learned a lot of things, especially about the Khajiits gods. :-)
I love your voice 😁 great job on the vid 👍🏾it helped me learn a lot about my favorite race
Your videos are so good! And it's such a breath of fresh air since you dont have annoying music or an annoying voice 👏😁👌🍻🍷🕊
I love CZcams recommending me your videos. Gotta sub. :)
Keep up the great videos. Everyone that I have watched I enjoyed them greatly
The music along with the presentation as well as being well informed and versed causes this work to be superb. I appreciate the work and effort that you put forth. THANK YOU for the obvious love you show.
I'm enjoying your videos so far. Looking forward to more :)
Thank you so much! Currently working on the next one, it should be uploaded soon :D
Excellent video. Loved your Kahjiit voice. Keep up the good work.
3:25 an update due to lore added by ESO manes are a subspecies that technically more than one can exist at a time, only one works as "The Mane" and any manes born during the rule of anoter mane are set to be next in line. There's more to it, but there are more current videos on the mane and how that works if anyone's curious. Great video!
Love your videos, keep up the good work.
i love how this describes tes lore from the pov of the khajiit, really eye opening
An entire race of cat people?
Impossible! Clearly if they were all cats, they would immediately knock all their meals and sundry eating-ware off their tables as soon they were placed, and would then subsequently die from eating the floor-befouled food.
your videos are extremely underrated, the information in this video is very detailed, very well done and i hope you make more videos when the next game comes out, it could be a great opportunity to grow your channel if you wanted.
This is a good video with info IDK why your so underrated
this is really good, well done and well made. you should be proud
I absolutely love it, I'm sharing the hell out of this.
Thanks for this. Watching it before ESO DLC which will no doubt add more lore.
Love the race and learnd a lot. Almost always play as one in all the games i played so far.
nice video!
Every Dunmer gangsta until the agricultural equipment starts speaking Ta'agra.
This was great!
I really enjoyed watching this........Breaking down all of the them.......I know Elsweyr is on ESO.......But this should be a game like Skyrim.
Great Work!
My dear you are highly underrated. Your Houses of Morrowind Video was very very good.
I wonder if the Lilmothiit are related? Like Hyenas and Felines...
What length, such detail, much lore! Again I am blown away. Impressive and thank you.
Khajiit were given their form from Azura perhaps the lilmothiit got their form from another prince
Perhaps the bird people of merethic Cyrodil are linked to nocturnal who has skeletons bird people at her command
It’s cool to think that Men and Mer are not natives to Tamriel, but Beastfolk are.
Subbed, you’re really good :)
I'm in the beginning of my first Khajiit play through on the Xbox one X, and it's a blast so far! I'm using mods such as the one that overhauls the dialogue to that of a Khajiit's, Wildcat combat, Vivid Weathers (with the interior/exterior night on dark), Imperious, OBIS, populated series, patrols, better/more rare treasures+loot, etc. It's my first attempt at carefully crafting a game changing load order. Still some kinks, but 85% there!
Super fun. The dark interiors/dark nights makes the Night Eye power super useful -- makes you actually use it. I have myself + four Khajiit followers roaming Skyrim, collecting artifacts and selling them to the caravans.
For RP purposes, your character (or my character, Ahjisi Qa'jhirr lol) is a Khajiit that travelled with the Caravans from the forests of Elswyr (thanks to the Alternative start mod), up to Skyrim. When arriving in Skyrim, the caravan sends you out on your own. Gather every Khajiit follower in the game (plus Inigo/Ra'ksa [he's from a settlement mod], maybe more? More = less challenge) and suffer through the beginning on legendary until you get a follower. Stealth is key unless you want to die with one hit every time (I usually go for Inigo). Venture out with the goal of procuring powerful artifacts and valuabe treasures to sustain the caravan's lucrative valuables market. It's war time, might as well sell the good stuff and make a killing!
The land of Skyrim is very populated, civil war feels alive, more powerful enemies. The world does things around you, it's not stale. The forests hold their own dangers, as do the roads. Your group is key to how you approach scenarios.
I'm still perfecting the load order/mods (I keep running into the problem of having nearly 5 gb of mods with 40mb available, but it'll tell me no space to download a 15 mb mod... I'm not ready to wipe it again!), but I'm only level 8. If I can progress the story lines and get to at least level 30 I can see what needs to be fixed.. Get a feel for it lol.
This one appreciates such a detailed history of the khajiit...
Love hearing about the Cat folk of Elswyer, great video I subbed your channel is great :)
Great video, great voice, great lore
You are awsome, love your content :D
Love the Khajiit race. My second favorite race next to Imperial.
same.
You Forget A 1000 Things A Day Finally other imperial lovers
Just discovered this channel and very glad I did. You've definitely got a new sub. Bet you won't respond tho
Payne Syler thanks so much for your support! :D
I cant thank enough for this video
Amazing stuff
An annoyed Alfiq: "This one can talk just fine, thank you. Just because you fail to say anything worth responding to does not mean this one lacks the ability to speak."
(Great video.)
I have the book "The Inferno City", but cannot remember the name of the name of the other book. I 💕 the work you put into the videos, thank you so much.
Khajiit remind me of anchient egyptians.
Had a character once.
Forgot her name but unarmed and dragon priest dagger. Named her after a egyptian godess
I could slay dragons unarmed using her claws
Bastet was her name.
Glad u remembered
I love this insane depht of the elder scrolls lore
Enthralling lore. Love this video
I might go and make a new Khajiit thanks to this video.
lol great thumbnail.
Lol I'm not sure what is showing up as a thumbnail for viewers, when I uploaded it for some reason it would not let me deselect this bosmer image, none of the auto thumbnails were even khajiit. Lol, on mobile for me however it is the correct image of the khajiit I had selected. But however on my desktop it shows the bosmer image. I suppose I won't be able to get around this strange CZcams glitch. Lmao
@@ladyofscrolls4598 lol I see the face of a regular kitty in what it looks like khajiti armor.
@@Nestiy5 ah then it's working then! That glitch must be specific to my desktop then for some reason lmao, but yea I couldn't resist, that picture is much too cute.
*when you realize moonsugar is Tamriel's kitty crack* OwO"
But in solid gas and liquid form
OwO
If you're looking for a dry place with the occasional oasis and deadly sand-traps, look Elsweyr.
Excellent choice of intro music. I am imagining cat videos now.
Where do you find all these amazing pictures to go with your videos? I've watched two of them so far and I love em. :D
I wonder if, say, and Ohmes-Raht rode their Senche sibling around.
This very thing actually took place in the official Elder Scrolls Book the Infernal City by Gregory Keyes, a fantastic read! And it definitely gives a lot of lore surrounding Khajiit.
The khajit literally named their god of mercy “surrender”
Would enjoy learning more about the Tojay (26:02) if anyone has any light to shed.
I love listening to this stuff !
This is how I found your channel 👍
Please, what is the music you play for Khajiit?
thanks for the video! Is there any ways to add chapters?
Still the most informative on CZcams, I'm literally rewatching because the video..the high elves have a different version of history and theirs doesn't add up because of the snow elves and the dwemer. Maybe this is the most accurate portrayal of the nirn creation myth?
My favorite characters to create are Khajiit with Cryodillic names, my main is 'Dawnbringer-Steals-Away-Moonlight' a moon sugar thief. Haha
I love that so much! I think the only Khajiit character I had was in Skyrim, I did an entirely evil build and named him Ra'Jza Vir IV. Not really sure who the previous renditions of his family were but lol in either case he was probably my favorite build.
Lady of Scrolls Also an Argonian named 'Spoils-The-Waters' I laughed when I first came up with it. Hahaha
@@creaturefeet3036 haha, I like that too! I haven't actually played as an argonian before, I should, there's so many interesting combinations of names! Lol
Lady of Scrolls The Argonian and Hist relationship could make for another interesting video but good luck pronouncing Jel words hahaha
I've got an Argonian named Eet-S'yiryung, the joke is that it sounds like it could be Eats-Your-Young.
"Who is this?"
"This is my Argonian friend, his name is Eet-S'yiryung."
"What? 'Eats-Your-Young' ? He eats babies?"
"No! No, it's not a given name! He is a kind soul, a noble thief and vigilante, a true hero!"
E-S: "I do though..."
That explains why khajiit say, may you walk on warm sand as a parting
Please God may there be an Elsweyr Elder Scrolls game in my lifetime.
The Skyrim beyond team is working on it in a mod
Perhaps the reason why no 2 Manes have ever coexisted is due to how long it takes for Masser & Secunda to perfectly line up (like an ultra-mega-supermoon), & that time interval just so happens to be longer than any Kajjiit's lifespan?
Have you made one on the werewolves yet?
