- In our latest Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim video we discuss the secret mysteries of Flesh Magic! We journey through multiple Elder Scrolls games, including not only Skyrim, but Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion and its Shivering Isles DLC, as well as The Elder Scrolls Online.
This is one of the most fascinating types of magic, and while it's hard to define, there's many interesting examples popping up throughout Tamriel's history, going back quite far on the timeline.
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim is an open world action role-playing video game developed by Bethesda Game Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks. It is the fifth main installment in The Elder Scrolls series and was released worldwide on November 11, 2011. The game's main story revolves around the player character and their quest to defeat Alduin the World-Eater, a dragon who is prophesied to destroy the world. The videogame is set two hundred years after the events of Oblivion, and takes place in the fictional province of Skyrim.
At FudgeMuppet, we uncover the elder scrolls lore secrets that make the games so sensational, and in this video we're going to be exploring the many examples we could find of a very unique type of magic! Our TESV footage is brought to life with a host of awesome Skyrim mods, but we also feature footage from ESO and TES IV to show off the best examples in all their glory. Best of all, we get to visit the realm of the Daedric Prince of Madness, Sheogorath!

Thank you for all the love and support you've been showing on the channel recently! We're really grateful for all of the kind words, feedback and passion for these topics. There's two things we'd love to let you know. Firstly, if you're interested in further exploration of the topic discussed of Relmyna and Sheogorath having a thing, there's actually a note you can find called Letter to Sheogorath. Relmyna talks about how she misses Sheogorath, and mentions that when she visits the Gatekeeper, she is reminded of when they created him. She references Sheogorath's "glistening body in the pool" and how he "lovingly" blended the "components of flesh that would become our child". I (Michael) could make a dedicated Relmyna video sometime if you wanted me to - just let me know. Secondly, if you love these topics and the elder scrolls in general, definitely check out our new podcast! We've done 3 episodes already and soon to record the 4th, with each one focusing on a particular TES topic. Thanks everyone!
Yessss yall really make the best elderscrolls content
Yeah, a relmyna video would be wonderful Michael!
You guys are the best
You perhaps could have incorporated mention about ESO necromancer class, with flesh atro ultimate
Hey Guys! Big fan as you can probably guess from the name. I was wondering if you could maybe do a build that is played in the game oblivion or Morrowind.

necromancy is just healing without giving up.
Destruction is just a way to use necromancy

What if the Dragonborn used flesh magic in Helgen to shift their face and race in real time?
It explains why they wanted to kill him/her before ulfric
Well ok want that to be official lore now.
Hadvar has....SEEN things
"Who....are you?"
"Why Hadvar-" _flesh melds in real time_
"-I'm you."
Omg it makes sense now
I'm glad to see this topic....... *FLESHED* out
Great pun
oof
Here's the door get out
This hurt.
Im gana send you to the soul carn for that joke
And yes i know it was misspelled
Egypt:. Let's just cover them in salt so they don't rott
Elder Scrolls: MAGIC, EVERYTHING IS DONE BY MAGIC
To be fair, if magic existed in this world, would you be content to be so boring as to only use salt?
@@NoahofWill that's why I don't understand the Nords in Skyrim. They keep saying that magic is for the weak and for elves, but in the long run it's more effective than melee weapons. Sure, their distrust is somewhat justified due to the collapse of Winterhold and recent Thalmor activities, but I wouldn't call it weak at all.
That's like fighting with swords in the modern day while making fun of people who use firearms, because they're not physically strong enough to wield a "real" weapon.
Lukas Langdon the Nords disdain for magic was apparently kinda recent, after the oblivion crisis. Before than, nords used to respect magic, even called mages “Clever-Men”
@@NoahofWill magic does exist homie just not like that
@@vermillion6159 I mean
if you consider how beefier melee followers treat enemy mages in Skyrim
It's kinda like your HEMA bro who benches tanking a glock to turn the shooter's clavicle into dust with a great sword lmao
I forgot how dramatic the ritual was, really brought me in to what I was doing and awakened my love for the necromantic arts.
Hey guys let's all grab a shovel, head to the graveyard, and get too it!!! Pro tip: bring a black robe (hooded!) And a litre of baby blood (fresher the better, so bring the kids along!)
For me necromancy as a way to punish those who I feel that Death is too good for them
@@SupernaturalDetective the best way to be a necromancer while being morally good (in a certain way at least).
Lukas Langdon Chaotic good
It also really helped to have the intense Jeremy soule music in the background while the ritual was going on lol
The speech she gives when creating the gatekeeper is so well written...
Right? I really enjoyed it.
Too bad she's not a trainer, like several others back in Cyrodill. The awesome and crazy s%#@ you could learn from her!
Last time I was this early the Aedra still had physical forms.
You didnt get into the Briarhearts. That has to be some form of flesh magic. I thought youd dive deep into that
Both the Briarhearts and the very transformation of the Hags themselves is implied to be the same kind of "old magic" that the Butcher was studying. The magic of flesh is as old as flesh itself, and that's the tradition that the hagravens and the forsworn keep alive. Massive oversight.
No actually the Briarheart or all that is considered "old magic" by the forsworn is a form of very powerful restoration magic that is not practiced by any mages (other than forsworn and hagravens) in present day.

God damnit just take my damn upvote

No skin off my nose
Relmyna also has a love letter to Sheogorath on her, detailing some very saucy descriptions of the Daedra that involve him in the Cistern of Substantiation.
I wonder if defeating Alduin and "breaking the dragon" could have caused a dragon break making the outcome of the factions and all side questions be completed and incompleted at the same time like what happened with the warp in the west.
That’s an interesting theory , we won’t know till elder scrolls 6 comes out
you put a question I couldn't quite verbalize into perfect english
Probably with multiple options on what happens with the civil war they need to come up with some dragon break reason
I mean, you intentionally cause a dragon break when reading the Elder Scroll at the Throat of the World, and canonically that happens before the (potential) civil war truce. Perfect storm for some warping, this time in the north!
That didn't even happen in nirn, so.... No.
"No one likes you that much." I laughed way too hard at that.
In Morrowind there's a Telvanni who works with Corprus magic. He made his own daughter-wives via some cloning process.
Hey Fudgemuppet, I was wondering if you could do more videos about unique magic in Tamriel, such as celestial magic in ancient Hammerfell, fey magic, warden nature magic, aedric magic, and ash lander wise women magic. There is also the harmonious masters.
I‘d love a „Conjure Flesh armour“ or a „meat tentacle“ spell where you augment your body with. And don‘t forget the meat shield (pun intended)
I would totally run around Skyrim sprouting tentacles. Hail C'Thulu!!
Or maybe a meat rod as a sword?
Hmmm, meat Bicycle!
trevor banet I hope it‘s shiny
Kanuui kinky
I hope the next installment of the elder scrolls lets us dabble in “flesh magic”... it seems like every time I start a play through of Skyrim I always come back to conjuration.. it just seems so powerful and interesting compared to other schools of magic..
its hella fustrating to be limited to such a small number of summons
@@menacetosociety9076 your right. But beyond that think, where are we conjuring from? I could already think of a 'void pocket' perk that can grant increased carry weight. And bound weapons DEFINITELY need some rework. They should lvl along with u and your one handed lvl.
GO play Morrowind. You'd love Mysticism :3 It's a crime they cut it :c
TES 6 better have Sand Magic. They talked all about it when learning Ash Magic, and leaving it out would be just another shameful Bethesda oversight (or, a convenient excuse for DLC).
That would be cool.
Gara
There's magic for every type of attribute. Only that fire, frost and shock are the most commonly known/taught.
I hope they have star magic, in eso it allowed ancient nedes in Hammerfell to make celestial beings through the use of nirncrux. Imagine being able to create your own aedric/ magna ge like spirits that you can summon to do your bidding. In fact, the nedes even worshipped the most powerful ones as gods.
Have you heard the tragedy of Darth Plagueis The Wise? I thought not, it's not a story the Mage's Guild would tell you... He was an Ayelid so powerful and wise he could influence the Daedra to create... Sand.
while this is just conjecture, I imagine Void Essence may be a refined, or possibly a corrupted form of void salts, and it is through that, that a daedric soul can be bound to the Flesh Atronach.
I will also say that the mentions of flesh magic being used to change the living reminds me of how the mortal races were often changed by the daedric princes, and I wonder if perhaps they are the same magic, just with the magnatudal difference between a mortal and a Daeric Prince.
„let me know if you want a dedicated video on ...“
YES! please! you don‘t even need to ask, we always want more!
Could "true flesh" refer to the actual element she claims to have discovered? Perhaps true elemental flesh is pure, primordial biomass? Maybe there is a realm of oblivion that consists entirely of primordial flesh like how there are realms for fire, ice and lightning?
Dude, that's a HORRIFYING thought because it's crazy... but just crazy enough that there's almost definitely a place like that in Oblivion 😬
There are those flesh pods with random loot inside them in mehrune dagon's realms in oblivion. I don't think anyone knows where they come from.
Yep, that's what I think as well. Necromantic flesh creations just seem like golems brought to life with the soul magic that Necromancy is all about, no different from the skeletal creations other than the ingredients involved. But just like a Frost Atronach isn't just normal mundane ice that's being controlled by a daedra but actually a being made of "true ice" being summoned from an elemental realm of Oblivion, I think the same is true of Flesh Atronachs.
@@Mysticpaw I never really tried verifying it but because they had stuff like clothes and pocket change in them I always figured the flesh pods were made from mortals. Partly because when I saw the nearby larger containers that looked like giant living daedric hearts, I figured they were punished daedra based on what I'd read in previous games about things like bound/daedric weapons and how daedric punishment isn't always as quick and simple as death, since they eventually can reform after death.
@@__jonbud______________________ I think you are right. I didnt remember that explanation of them when I wrote my previous comment.
I can't see the armor on ordinary flesh atronachs having any protective value. Definitely placed there for either aesthetics or holding the bodyparts together, likely both. However the gatekeeper seems to have some protective layer on his belly. The belly is a known weak spot, often not as well protected as the rest of the body seeming as it would limit manoeuvrability. Maybe the gatekeepers belly armor serves such a purpose seeming as he doest seem to concerned with manoeuvrability. Bear in mind that if it hadn't been there, it would have left a large opening for adventurers to lob heaps of spears and arrows onto it, and as mighty as the gatekeeper may be, I can imagine it being rather difficult to fend off all these enemies and protected his belly at the same time.
Spears?
if only
However, what if the armor pieces are a means to hold the soul inside the flesh? Like extra protection.
The armor has no protective value that I can see, since the only thing that can hurt and kill a gatekeeper is another gatekeeper
Reminds me of cenobites.
On the void essence section he refers to oblivion as "there", sometimes the shivering isles are so nice that after the main game gate crawl we forget it's oblivion.
I'd say Dagoth Ur's blight and what changes he makes with his followers using the corpus is similar to flesh magic.
Also 'corpus' itself means 'body'
Well he was working with the literal heart of the god most responsible for the creation of the mortal plane. In addition to its raw power and influence over the world, I'm not sure if there's anything else that can qualify as "primordial flesh" on Nirn.
@@__jonbud______________________ well you have the primordial chaotic shape shifting beings that azura and Yiffri made the Khajiit and bosmer out of
@@vonfaustien3957 yeah but those beings got fundamentally altered from their original states countless generations ago. Between the two, the closest we get now is the Bosmer wild hunt, which seems to be an unstable degeneration and is rumored to result in potentially a new monster with permanent form from the survivor of the cannibalistic frenzy at the end.
I'll agree with you that it's definitely closer to some concept of primordial flesh, but it's still fundamentally altered and not quite of the same magnitude of the Heart. I'm not sure how close the Heart was to it's original composition after Dwemer tonal architects tried messing with it's nature and properties through tonal manipulation or it's relatively current state after everything that's happened with Red Mountain (whole other topic) but it seems to have been the closest thing around that qualified as a relatively stable surviving sample of flesh closest to the original concept of "flesh" as it's understood.
The fact the face sculptor is in the hidden headquarters of the Thieves Guild suggests she somehow got in trouble with authorities somewhere. Maybe changing the faces of wanted criminals? Maybe helping dissidents escape the Thalmor? You can see why she might have been given sanctuary there,since her talents might be needed someday should a thief ,assassin or someone else connected to Maven Blackbriar's enterprises need to disappear from official view.
I love a flesh magic mod or even for it to appear in elder scrolls 6.
Do we even know Relmyna's age I mean if she started out as a chimer and eventually joined an early mages guild before they caught up with her. Just a thought
Nicholas Gait my guess would be around 808 years old by the time of Skyrim
Oblivion realms warp time effects on mortal lives, so possible
last time i was this early i still didnt have an arrow in the knee.
I listen to this at work on spotify. I love the conjecture and love discussion so much. Keep doing what you love guys!
I love when you guys make longer videos. I can just have the videos play while I'm doing other stuff
This was absolutely spectactular, so so so much detail, love the passion for the elder scrolls universe!
I love videos covering more obscure magic types, so you should definitely make more in the future.
Couldn’t flesh magic have medical use? Say a heart transplant or giving an amputee a new hand or something?
The FBI would like to know your location
well yes but no, probably wouldn't work on a living target then at that stage what's the point
I suppose it’s possible
Imagine it is TES6, you find a guy that went through a chirurgical process with some shady dude who said that he could return him his lost hand. However, the hand was infused with a daedra's essence, so it has a will of its own and wont respond to the reciever. The man, desperate, asks for your help and pleads for you to find the guy and "deal" with him. Upon finding him you discover that he is a redguard sorcerer trying to master applied flesh magic to help people in need but he couldn't do that back in Hammerfell because of all the negavite bias. So you are met with the choice of killing the sorcerer or killing the "failed experiment", the latter option providing the redguard with more fleshy bits to help in his research.
@@bigode9743 send this to Bethesda lol
Wish your newer videos had scenes with words in them to,This is was always one of my favorites.
Neat explanation! Thanks for uploading!
When I played a necromancer that quip "We'll make a necromancer out of you yet!" really hurt my feelings.
Thank guys , helps with boredom at work. Love the lore of the videos
Flesh magic is just Sheogorath's twisted version of necromancy
Relmyna Verenim invented flesh magic, Shegorath has nothing to do with it. He did not even know there were 5 elements of magic lol.
Awesome vids like always
I rebought Skyrim and ESO just because of your videos. I’ve only been watching for about a month. But please keep up your great work. And begin your preparations for the next one!
At last, all the questions I have had are being answered! Now I shall create the ultimate army of flesh atronochs and conquer Skyrim!
Awesome video
In the World of Darkness, there's a vampire clan called the Tzimisce who craft things with flesh. They look like Cenobites from Hellraiser.
I'm glad you guys decided to shine a flesh-light on this topic
Oh god...He doesnt know...
Fantastic video, I didn't even realise it was 30 minutes long until it was over lol
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Last week I finished the Shivering Isles DLC and was saddened to not see a Relmyna video already here. I'd love it if you could fit one into your schedule.
Great video, m8s!
Love your content
Dude Skyrim ha so much lore and it’s great this Channel tries to cover as much as possible
The Elder Scrolls* Skyrim is just one game and one piece of the entire cake
Donovan Anglin I was talking about Skyrim at first then meant all of the lore
Is it me or is this channel ultra active the last few mnths? Much happiness
A vid about necromancer elf lady would be cool.
Epic Intro Music that makes me feel powerful!
Now that you mentioned it, I definitely want a relmyna video
Take a shot everytime someone says "flesh"
Soon you would be drunker than Sanguine on a Friday night!
After seeing the new video about the possible daedric origin of Argonians... Void salts have a perfectly understandable explanation!
Great vid, very informative, eso gameplay hurts though, need to learn to attack weave.
13:31 Damn, Sheo, You didn't have to burn your successor _THAT_ badly...
Hey guys! I love your all your content and I never miss an episode, keep it up!
I was wondering if you guys could try and answer the question of what happens to white souls when they are soul trapped? We see 2 animals in the soul cairn in dawnguard but they seem to be an exception and both were accompanied by their masters. Is there a separate soul cairn for white souls? Are those souls lost when used? I’m so curious and I haven’t seen anyone talk about this.
*On the subject of Flesh Atronach armor*
They're like Zombie Lord Humongous.
Nice vid mike
A video on that lady would be neat
I feel like every time a child of five is mentioned, it's a subtle nod to Peter Anspach's iconic Evil Overlord list.
Just do it ... do that video on mad fleshmancer from Shivering Isles! :D
Ya know, I’m curious if Abnor Tharn’s quote is also a reference to the in universe book Chimervodium... or however it’s spelled, where it’s mentioned that a dwemer child of eight can build a automaton.
Shades of Voldemort...! Relmyna's incantation reminded me of Tom Riddle's formula for raising himself back to bodily life in _Goblet of Fire._ Creepy. Makes me even gladder I skipped out on playing Shivering Isles when I was doing _ES: Oblivion._
Thanks for the explanation Fleshmuppet
Bear in mind a couple of things: 1 - the symbol shown in the ritual is a conjuration symbol, and necromancy is considered a branch of the conjuration school. 2 - in books on the practice and morality of necromancy, it is mentioned multiple times that working with souls in general is considered necromantic in nature; soul gems are used in enchanting but do tap into the Soul Cairn, condemning trapped souls therein and drawing upon the inherent properties of the Soul Cairn itself. The Soul Cairn is a realm of Oblivion and of course, the daedra are denizens thereof. Darkest Darkness, The Book of Daedra, Aedra and Daedra, and other books in Skyrim discuss them in great detail, along with books on Oblivion and its realms as a whole. 3 - while summoning daedra is not necromantic in and of itself, it is done via conjuration rituals that summon entities from Oblivion; in fact, the master-level conjuration spell quest in Skyrim specifically has you summoning a dremora multiple times in order to weaken its resolve so as to "barter" for a sigil stone. And some of those books I mentioned, particularly Darkest Darkness (and Varieties of Daedra, iirc), specifically refer to daedra that are bound temporarily to Nirn vs daedra that are bound in a more permanent fashion.
So flesh magic is absolutely a branch of conjuration magic, just as necromancy is, but I personally wouldn't classify them as the same thing due to the differences in purpose. They may cross over, just as alteration/illusion do, because you're using dead flesh; but I think really, you're utilizing necromancy as well as more generalized conjuration rituals and possibly inscriptions, in order to complete a unique process. I therefore don't think flesh magic is necessarily a school in and of itself, but you could perhaps consider it a kind of pseudoschool relying on a particular school and a branch thereof. I wouldn't necessarily go that far myself, preferring the idea that it's a branch of conjuration rather than even a pseudoschool, but that really enters into the realm of perspective.
I wonder if flesh sculpting could be used to make one the epitome of strength and vitality, as breaking down one's muscles and bones and making them bigger, stronger, and in some ways reinforced sounds like a viable avenue of research
13:20 Sheogorath... is Jackscepticeye?
That explains *so much.*
More obscure magic types, or just magic videos in general, any magic lore is interesting to me.
The armor looks to me like it's meant to bind something in. The face mask looks like a muzzle, and in general there's a lot of... visual similarities to some adult things.
Anyways, my theory is that the armor is enchanted to be controlled by the conjurer as well as to shackle souls, and is intended to both contain the soul of the daedra, and in an emergency, control the body of the flesh atronach if the daedra attempts to seize control.
Alternatively: The designers where inspired by silent hill's mosnters and just wanted to make something striking and creepy looking.
A video with Relmyna Verenim would be very interesting, she is in the top 5 of the most influential and powerful mages/sorceresses the last few hundred years in tamriel and the oblivion realms.
Very good video. I'm ashamed I didn't watch it sooner, but the thumbnail just did not catch my interest. Anyway I hope you will make more videos on these obscure types of magic. Very interesting.
Its so fun to watch mortals try to understand its like a puppy that found an axe HAHAHA
14:52
*skyrim battle music*
*gets anxious and looks around*
You didn't mention the bonewalkers and bonelords of Morrowind. I love your Morrowind lore videos. Could you do one about those?
I'm imagining these in the dungeons of ES VI and goddamn do I want it badly
very sick
Id love a video dedicated to the flesh mage of the shivering isles
The summoning deal is equally dubious when considering the summoning of bears, zombies, and other such things in Oblivion.
Yessssss, here we go 👏👏👏👏👏
I usually thought flesh magic was more of alteration than conjuration.
I thought of this without much looking into it as your altering select pieces of to create a new thing altogether which is a very basic premise to alteration whereas conjuration was to conjure out of nothing or bend to your will which I thought didn't really align to flesh magic.
Nonetheless I love your vid and in depth analysis.
Magic schools are constructions of magic users, they're not inherent within magical itself
This was awesome. As someone who has enjoyed the Shivering Isles and is currently playing Elder Scrolls Online, I have to admit that I would take a flesh Atronach over my necromancer's flesh Colossus any day simply because the former fought like zombified Street Fighter character.
"But instead of being the soul of a mortal, flesh magic uses the soul of a Daedra."
Me, who just watched the Nirn is Lorkhan's Realm video: isn't that the same thing? Tamriel ae Daedroth
You mentioned on the knowledge of other elves, but you didn't speak on the Dunmer of Morrowind. With the Undead that are summoned or created to protect their tombs. I speak of the Bonelords, Bonewolves, Bonewalkers and Greater Bonewalkers (which can be mistaken for a Flesh Golems).
Read the title and thought about Oak Flesh, was surprised by the actual content
Theory on what void essence is: It is exactly what it sounds like, the essence of the void, and this is how it manages to trap the daedra's animus. It doesn't just trap the "soul" of a random daedra, but one that has been recently killed and is on its way to the void, specifically. It's just daedra necromancy...daecromancy? The void essence essentially creates little pockets of void inside of oblivion, drawing the animus of a recently killed daedra toward it as it seeks the void, from where it will be reborn. Only, instead of entering the void and re-emerging in oblivion, they get trapped in a little void pocket in the shivering isles, destined to remain suspended in their own private mini-void for as long as the atronach continues to exist. Given that even the Dremora admit that they fear the void, this must be a very unpleasant existence indeed.
Or.... daedrology? Lol
For future video ideas, how about the two lost schools of magic: Mysticism and thaumaturgy.
I think that Skyrim hints a mentioning of flesh atronachs in the Windhelm quest “Blood on the Ice”, where you must investigate the city of Windhelm, its citizens, and a few key locations to determine who’s the butcher.
Admire my work? All this time you thought Picasso and Salvador Dali had great and twisted works of art.
If there is enough info to talk about the flesh sculptor of the shiver isles, I would sure like to hear about it.
I reckon Void Essence is gained from a very far out Realm of Oblivion that likely teeters on the edge of the Void. Or is harvested from something rare like a Shade of Sithis or some ritual to make connection with the Void and the essence of Sithis.
Oh this is gonna be good
Hey completely off topic but I just watched yalls video on the blood moon so I looked up Secundas face.... its eerily similar to the Dark side of the moon
After watching this an idea for an elder scrolls game:
Opens with the main character caught in the middle of a calamity/ayleid invasion through time about to destroy the city/country. The sigic order (sorry for the spelling) shows up and uses several elder scrolls in tandem with the eye of Magus in an attempt to fight back. In the resulting action a rift of sorts opens, swallowing the main character and several NPCs along with chunks of the city and fling them through time into the age of ayleid rule. Shortly after waking and interacting with the others unlucky enough to accompany you through the rift , a group ayleids arrive to investigate the disturbance and capture your character with the few others who survive. Witnessing horrors of flesh art the character is made a slave and escapes during some sort of attack by a guerilla group opposing the ayleids. Let your imagination run wild from here with definite hellraiser vibes and very active deadra. Main story revolves around eventually becoming the leader of the resistance and getting back to the future (lol) equiped in a way to stop the invasion and the subsequent use of the eye and scrolls which unravelled time itself. An interesting mechanic in the game could be random rifts that open throughout the game, that drop baddies from every conceivable age, including future ages (remember the time traveler in Skyrim?). I can't put what I'm seeing into words that does justice to the insane possibilities and potential this has.
To be honest it made the most sense to me, almost like making a homunculus.
You should do a video on blood magic
I imagine the Alyid flesh sculptures are like the Tzmisce vampires' magics
I always thought the markings meant that it was like a puzzle. Only certain limbs could be attached to others with the same markings for compatibility.
Some people might consider binding the souls of daedra to corpses less evil than binding a mortal soul to a corpse.
