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, following The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, and was released worldwide for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 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. Over the course of the game, the player completes quests and develops the character by improving skills. The game continues the open world tradition of its predecessors by allowing the player to travel anywhere in the game world at any time, and to ignore or postpone the main storyline indefinitely.

The redguards. One of them savagely mocked me for not getting to the cloud district very often.
Only right answer.

I'll have you know that there's no PU$$Y!
Gets funnier every time you make that joke, trust me
Oh yeah, I think I saw him advising the jarl, his input is invaluable after all.
Morrowind lovers like me: “The Dunmer weren’t that bad.”
Dunmer: “How do you like my new argonian leather boots and khajiit fur coat outlander?”
Lol
Its not racist to put exotic animals to work or other uses
Ukko The Dwarf .... Argonians and Kajjit are sapient peoples though
@@thomastakesatollforthedark2231 some khajiit maybe as my great friend Inigo proves but argonians are nothing more than hive minded slaves to the hist and have crocodilian level intelligence without them, therefore its not slavery but herding that dunmer practice
@@ukkothedwarf1259 What about the Argonians that were born away from the Hist?
Dunmer in skyrim:"The Nordst are so mean to us just because we are outsiders nooooooo!"
Dunmer in Morrowind:"Out of my sight N'wah! Now where is that Khajitt slave I need to disembowel for the skooma she is muling for us."
Who knew mass near extinction could change a species so much?
LMAOOOOO
@@placeholder2586 "First time?"
And then the Argonians showed them what's really hood
“What races are the cruelest?”
Answer: “They’re all pretty absurdly cruel when they want to be, except for the cannibals. Those dudes are decent.”
yeah pretty much
@@justanobody8010 preety tasty🤤
Apparently a dang race of cannibals is friendlier than the *civilized* men
@@donutlovingwerewolf8837 that honestly speaks volumes on maybe they when we look at daedra lik Molag Bal, Saguine, and Sheogorath as being bad really the mortals are just their weaker equivalent so maybe that why they do the stuff they do to mortals
Orcs are ok
Everyone knows the cruelest race is the indigenous mountain gnomes, the "Toddus Howardis"
this is canon
Only dialogue they give is “ It just works. “
@@_Blonca lies, he also says "What! That really pisses me off."
Lol
Archaic legend actually tells of the Toddus Howardis ensnaring innocent travelers along the road, telling them "sweet little lies" before taking them to the place of their untimely demise.
Me: "The cruelest race is definetly the Dwemer"
Me after watching the video: "Right, the Sloads and the Aylieds were a thing"
Dwemer are the worst of the Mer races (are ayelids considered Mer?) But yeah sloads are a thing
@@CleopatraKing yeah they are considered mer, they're the heartland high elves, elves = mer
@@CleopatraKing yes Aylieds are mer like they are straight up mer, heck they are more mer than orcs😂
The Dwemer made a giant murder gundam that shitstomped Tamriel into submission then came back and blew it all up. What did the Sload do? Made a disease. Doesn't really compare to Numi-chan does it?
@@onlycorndog6322
The Sload disease wiped out half of the Tamrielic population, the Numidium used by Tiber Septim only slaughtered some of the people of, what, 2 provinces in comparison?
Depends, to be honest, I'm sure if given the chance, the Dwemer may have nuked some of Tamriel to eventually get what they wanted in terms of slave labor and the like

Hi, I'm Todd Howard from Fudgemuppet, here's 10 things we'd like to see in Elder Scrolls 6...
Ant #353 was an asshole.
People: “Orcs are Barbaric”
Wood elves: *”Hold my meat 🥩”*
Wopd elf: It used to be my cousin, until she died.
Darkened Shadow

Waste not, want not.
“Hey do you want this meat, I got it after hunting my whole family”
Orcs prolly commited the least war crimes, which is surprising. The worst of the Mers is Dwemer which is also surprising
"Sniff" The orcs wouldn't let me into their club house they're the cruelest
Then feed their souls the ebony blade. Let's them taste blood, steel and vengeance.
I think the muder/incest government style is pretty bad
🤣🤣🤣
xDDDD
@@McHobotheBobo Wait, the wives come from other strongholds. There is little to no incest involved. I mean yeah, the new chief might have ONE mother-wife. Most real world royal families have WAY more incest than that. Like, so so so much more. Eugh. Tamrielic humans are likely no different. I mean, why would they be. Sure, every chief commits patricide, but it's good enough system, I mean the orcs are a warrior people. Their culture is about being strong and surviving, and they do both those things well.

I love that we've been creating and consuming Elder Scrolls lore for so long, were beyond the basic stuff based in the games, and are now ruminating on the more philosophical aspects of TES.
gotta love it!
Cody McMillen Are you even a TES fan if you haven’t swallowed MK’s sticky CHIM at least once a day? Which reminds me *SLURP* *SLURP*
@Delete Me I know what you mean. I inhaled almost everything about TES, Warhammer40k & Fantasy, Warcraft, Lord of the Rings and Conan the Barbarian.
The funny thing is that the author of the Lord of the Rings and basically "father" of the fantasy genre, J.R.R. Tolkien, wanted to create a folk religion for his people when he started writing, so I think he would've loved seeing people actually believing his stuff after a few generations. :D
i love that too-

The three crulest races to have lived on Tamriel:
1) The Dwemer
2) The Sload
3) The Aylieds
why did you say what the video said
The aylieds worship MOLAG FUCKING BAL. he's called the KING OF RAPE
@@hobbesgoblin2691 that’s not too bad for skyrim
4) Nords
Never was a fan of their expansion and genocide crazed history. Happy the Dwemer and Dunmer alliance triumphed over their invasion
@@TheNecroFisherman Dunmer aren't better. They would have enslave/genocided Argonians if they weren't so badass.
ooh the dwemer were pretty cruel, they blinded the falmer in exchange for protection against the nords but just ended up enslaving and torturing them turning them into the blind monsters we see in skyrim underground.
Tanzenergise lives to the dwemer are only useful as guinie pigs for experimenting.
Have you heard of the Altmer they litter kill their own children for one fault
The dwemmer were being merciful. The original Falmercaused the night of tears. They were more evil than the Dwemmer ever were, possibly even more evil than the current Falmer.
In game falmer shoot arrows at you and can see you, they can also build homes and craft advanced tools and armors, not to mention they can craft magic staves, so I am pretty sure they are not blind, they probably have the same vision as chaurus (probably by eating the fungus in the caves like chaurus do) so like an insect like vision where they see differently or they developed some kind of magic vision, snow elves whrre really skilled in magic and remember Falmers ain't crazy, they just became wild and have an actual culture
@@simone7268 they were blinded by the dwemer as a payment for keeping them safe, they literally say it in the game. just because they are blind it doesn't mean they cant do any of that. blind people can do just just as many things as we can given enough time.
When I first played Skyrim the Falmer disgusted me, after learning about their betrayal I pity them.
Here is an "m" to finish what you started.

NEVER TRUST AN ELF!
Kinda figured the Ayleids would take 1st.
Molag Bal, we know what he's done, that should be enough
I thought the Sload would get the top spot easy, but your reasoning makes sense. The Sload were cruel, yes, but they were not cruel just for fun or to satisfy themselves in some way since they supposedly lacked emotions. It was all business. The Ayleids tortured and killed for fun, which makes them cruel in a more thorough sense of the word.
The first words that escaped my mouth when I saw the title were "the dwemer"
For me they were "Aylieds" and "Sload"
For me it was sload, dreg and Tsaesci
I thought about dark elves because of slavery but your so right
@@cathemeraltheenby6840 I didn't think about the Tsaesci, but that may just be my bias, they seem very intriguing to me, but they actually did some good (helping the Empire in the absence of an emperor, killing dragons and overall aiming for the good of the Calpa Cycle and Tamriel
what made the dwemer bad
I must have dyslexia, I thought the video title was “Who is the cutest race.”
Well did you get the answers you were looking for?
Orcs are cutest next question (no I will not elaborate)
Orcs just got that one in the bag, not an interesting enough question
Do Alfiqs count?

I stopped playing Skyrim a couple years ago and I'm still watching videos because you make great stuff!
The Elder Scrolls Lore is too expansive to ever grow old
I'm anxious for the next game to come out. Does anyone know where it takes place? Hammerfell?
@@justintyler9134 hopefully the magic system really does get a complete overhaul with some spells being similar in creativity that dishonored has
At the time of Skyrim it's definitely the altmer but practically every race has committed a genocide or two over the years
What's a little border massacre between neighbors?
I think the list of races(playable) that comitted genocide is actually pretty small. The only ones I can think of are the Nords and Imperials. It is also debated if the Argonians have as well, but it's not conclusive.
@@thealien2437 Redguards comitted genocide as well. Probably way more than the Nords. The lefthanded elves, and non Redguard race that was in Hammerfell during the time.
@@thealien2437 of the playable races? if you're counting the entirety of their history then definitely the redguards have committed at least 1 genocide. the nords vs the falmer. you also gotta remember that the dunmer and altmer have had a major hard-on for enslaving other races.
@@thealien2437 The Argonianian massacred the Dunmmer after the erupt of red mountain. Basically the slaves revolted and Argonia invaded southern Morrowind massacring all the way to MournHold. Brand shi quest in Riften hints at it and I believe the guy from house Redoran in Solthiem talks about it.
Also Argonia did massacred the Deadra during the Oblivion Crisis but that is badass and less evil.
Pretty much all the races except the beast races, and maybe the Bosmer.
Bosmer eat eachother.
They eat others as well, read a dance of fire
@laughing nuke oh and they eat everyone else too. Just no plants. At all.
But is it cruel to eat all meat? People know it's going to happen and the bosmer don't actively raid people in order to eat them
@Wirr Ling i see what you mean, but i still wouldnt classify them as "not cruel" and line them up with the argonians and cat people
You know the worst thing about the Ayleids? While the sload and dwemer typically aren't capable of feeling emotion, the Ayleids can...they have standards of morality and sentiment. It takes a special type of cruelty to act out deeds so blatantly evil while maintaining a centre of emotional thinking.
"The Dwemer were a cruel race" - Karliah
Well there we have it
Altmer, Ayleids, Dwemer, Dunmer, and the Sloads.
You forgot the nords.
@@aesthetics1726 I wouldn't say the nords are cruel, i consider them more xenophobic
Elijah Butcher yeah I agree as well they don’t really torture mostly just bar from cities or kill, but not torture.
It’s also kind of the elves fault for their xenophobia
@@aesthetics1726 the nords are just a bit racist. They would be happy being homogenous, they don't kill for fun, nor for conquest.
@@ThatWeirdDude40 they do love hunting, fishing, drinking and fighting though.
They're possibly the best people to go drinking or partying with, even if a fist fight goes down
The Dwemer are definitely one of the cruelest I don’t think they ever did anything that benefited anyone but themselves.
Super serious voice: "Chunkiest, thiccest bois"
Edit: Good to see the Khajiit aren't on this list, best boys!
Craig Shepherd yes
The argonians aren't either, right?
Lol everything is so well written then you get to number two “check out this thicc boi”
I'd say its whatever that doesn't have ties with the Aedra and Et'ada since they wouldn't really have a grasp of what is 'good'. Such daedric races like the Dremora just love to mess / torture mortals.
Thou since the list only consists of races of Nirn, the Ayleids and Sloads are definitely high contenders
I'd count The Dwemer too. Look what they did to The Falmer
@@wiibrockster The Sload were last seen in Tamriel in 1E 2260. Threatening the entire of man and mer with a plague. Had they succeeded - everything on Tamriel would be dead.
What about the tsaesci they enslaved Dragons
@@wiibrockster falmer deserved it
Dremoras have standards that even the Sloads and Ayleids would find useless and annoying. A high ranking Valkynaz would find infanticide rather self destructive. It also depends on which realm the Dremora came from. A Dremora from Sanguines' realm would have a different set of values and beliefs compare to one from Molag Bals' realm. For example, the Dremora from Sanguines' realm would try to seduce you to show you a good time in the chambers, while a Dremora from Molag Bals' realm would simply just rape you. Please, don't stick all of them into the same boat. Some are "friendlier" (as friendly as a Dremora could get) than others... they are definitely better to associate with than any Sload or Ayleid that's for sure. Anyways I wouldn't call all Dremora as the cruelest. Again, it depends on the realm they are in.
What ever race the dragon born is, he/she wiped out 50% of the snow elf population!
“I’ll link them in the description.” *laughs* *doesn’t*

@@1961jscofield nice reference
I am on my first playthrough of Skyrim (I didn't know how fantastic it becomes with the right mods) and yesterday I slaughtered a whole camp of Thalmor - like 30 of them. It was a bit much even for me. I was going to go back to an old save until I discovered what they were doing in the basement levels. Then I wanted to kill more of them.
That's the thing about the Thalmor: you never kill enough of them, but you can very much try.
Dwemer, Altmer, Dunmer, Ayleids. Well, it's definitely the Mer races as a whole!
Those damn Elves
And the Wood Elves just sitting in their trees eating beef
@@mumblerogre2455 are you sure is it beef
and they wonder why I idolize Pelinal so
Orsimer are the only ones I would trust. But in their case, earning their trust is also more difficult.
Out of Drew, Michael, and Scott, I like Drew's voice the best. It's just the most subtle, and easiest fall asleep to. I wish they separated videos into playlist sorted by each one of them. Lol

Hey Fudgemuppet! I’ve been a huge fan of your videos for a while. Love how in depth you get with the lore of one of the greatest game series of all time! Have you ever thought about doing a podcast or converting audio from your videos into them? I’d love to listen on the go. Thanks and Keep up the awesome work 👌
Thanks My lack of sleep
Lol me too... We're in quarantine and I still can't sleep until later... 8:00 in Brazil right now, and I woke up about 6. I'm just gonna give up already.
Nice timing! Just what i needed
It wouldn’t be a perfect Drew cast without a Breton somewhere in the distance. Thanks for scratching my Breton itch! Keep it coming! Thank you.
Love the content thanks so much for all the work you do!
"Innocent High Elves"
Good one.
Many innocent High Elves died when Tiber Septum used the Numidium and annihilated the Summerset Isles despite at that time the Altmer were remaining out of the way of Tamriel on their islands and were actually in a truce with him.
He broke the agreement he had with Summerset and backstabbed them with the Numidium incident, so how the hell is he not the bad guy? How are the Altmer the bad guys here??
@@thalmoragent9344 Excellent question with a simple answer: /watch?v=v6owEGMI4xM
Sending a hello from a fellow quarantine/isolation denizen. Stay healthy and thanks for these. :) Listening to lore is proving beneficial to chase away cabin fever.
Hello about 5 months ago you did a video on the best undead thralls in the game and I asked (admittedly quite late to the video) about the snow elves and if you can even get them as thralls. I didnt expect you to answer but I was hoping someone would but no one did so I went and got him myself. He's alright he's a pure caster that will sometimes conjure a frost atronauch and casts expert level frost and lightning spells and also has the drain life spell since he was a vampire making him surprisingly tanky
Bloody love you guys, produce such awesome work 👌🤘
Give us a complete Dwemer-I really wanna hear more about their beginnings
You got some insane mods in your videos & it's amazing
Been bashing Skyrim whilst on lockdown, this is exactly what I need right now. I love your channel's videos man, you guys are awesome, thank you!
I knew the cruelest were gonna be those eight-loving wackos.
Altmer, Ayleids, Dwemer and the Sloads.
Definitely bro, I'm with you there 100%
Add the Dunmer as well
So most of the elves
@Wirr Ling Created the Bretons through rape, slaughtered quite a few Bosmer. They lie about everything pretty much.
Wirr Ling Plan to wipe all humans out, the planet, their Gods and any evidence they ever existed. Even if Shor is truly evil, Humans as a rule aren’t. I know that’s the Thalmor not the Altmer, many Altmer are still going along with it
I’m obsessed with the idea of the Slave Oceans of the Tyrant Dreugh Kings. That would be a cool topic for a video cool 😎
A slightly longer pause between entries would be nice, as I'm finding it hard to follow when the topic is switching, but otherwise I love your content!
Just a thing to note, the falmer blinding and betrayal was done by the Dwemer coalition in Skyrim. Not by Dumac of the Dwemer in Morrowind or by clan Rourke in Hammerfell. Not every Dwarf#hashtag.
I'm gonna come in here without watching and say the high elves. Now that I have stated my opinion I will watch it.
Thanks you for helping me stay up till 2 in the morning
Your so good at talking I hope I can wright some s.a's like you
To be fair, the Nords are pretty cruel, falmer aside the oppression of the reach men is pretty brutal.
I question my self everyday why am I up so late but I realize I don’t care but thanks for keeping me up so late
Very well done one!
You guys should remake and/or make builds for all the divines and the daedric princes that would also give you guys some videos
I would have thought that the dragons would have been on the list.
Dragons are a bit more aedric to be called a race don't you think. I mean they are mearly fulfilling their purpose. Only paarthurnax managed to overcome his nature through the teachings of the way of the voice.
@@isiraratnayake9491 I think that is a good explanation to why they might not be 'cruel'. They see it as their divine birth right, being made i the image of Akatosh, to dominante humans.
But they are still often counted as one of the races.
@@lidular I almost forgot. The dragons weren't really cruel. It was after miraaks betrayal that they became mistrustful.
Dragons aren't cruel, their nature is to dominate and to recognize if someone is stronger than them and respect it, I mean they are far stronger than humans, so they dominated them because of their nature, but since they wanted to dominate and not kill they asked to some humans (Dragon Priests) to become ambassadors so Dragons could rule without a rebellion every 2 seconds.
This way they created a whole society, they aren't cruel at all, they just follow their dominating nature
are humans cruel for farming cattle? it’s in the dragons’ nature to dominate mortals, Alduin was the only truly cruel one imo
2:07 I felt that
Hey guys I was wondering if you guys were gonna do more twitch streams/letsplays
After watching all of shoddy cast I'm glad I found a new lore channel
Problem with the argument of the Ayleids as the cruelest is the Ayleids were not an unified culture. They had many city-states, and each had a different pantheon of Aedra + Daedra, and some were cruel while others were not, largelly depending on which daedra did they worship. Some were allied with the human rebellion and continued to live in Cyrodiil as vassals to Alessia, until the imperials (who somehow dodged this list) murdered them all for religious reasons. How are altmer and BOSMER honorable mentions and not the imperials?
Apparently being the most expansionistic and arguably most greedy race doesn't count as cruel lol.
Totally unrelated but wouldn’t it be cool if there was more races of children in elder scrolls six like maybe some orc children or a young khajiit maybe you could even adopt some
Yeah, that's why I never adopt anyone in Skyrim unless I'm playing a human race. Just feels weird being a Kahjiit with a Breton son, you know?

Dude this guys voice is just.
Weird.
Mesmerizing.
Calming.
Anger indusing.
I don't know how that's possible
I have so much appreciation for the TES lore, one of the few fantasy settings where it's the Elves that are the biggest assholes.
Can’t agree with that last choice, Ayleids are certainly cruel but calling them the cruelest is a little too much. For example, some Ayleids were good who helped Alesssia in her rebellion. Also many of the sources stated about their cruelty, is from their enemies and could be propaganda
Yeah IMO the Sload are a lot crueler than the Ayleids
The ayleids enslaved all humans/humanoids. If it wasn't for whitstrake who knows what would have happened
That depends on your perspective I guess. In compairment to Sloads, they actually knew or had the ability to know it better, why the Sloads had little to no feelings/emotions from begin with. That is, if that statement is correct, since Sloads are also still a mystery to it. Ayleids also choosed the Daedra, no matter good or evil, just for proceeding in their advancements. Even enjoying their tortures, and trying to make it their Art, and inventing new methods for that. It is also worth noting, that the Lords adding Alessia, maybe did that not truly out of sympathy, but maybe because they had forseen that the war would be lost. After all, their own people mostly fought civil wars, amongst themselfs, which always weaken empires and give oppertunitiys to rebelions. Or they were part of the group ( whereever secretly or openly), once cast our for not worshipping the Daedra, and thought to take controll, after the defeat of their enemy. But of course like many things, that is only speculation, since we haven't seen that time with our own eyes.^^
Using their definition, the Ayleids are worse. The Sload don’t seem to have a concept of “happiness” or “pleasure”. There is a practicality to murdering a bunch of people when your a necromancer.
There is no practical purpose to the things the Ayleids did. They literally turned torture into an art form, and gained nothing from it. I don’t know about you but “gut-gardens” and “set ablaze for night time tiger sport” sounds worse than a plague.
We all know what molag Bal does. That's enough for me
Man i cant wait until a new Elder Scrolls or fallout comes out and these guys get their momentum back. Keep kicking ass guys!
Honestly, Drew could read a phone book in a language I don't know and I'd still listen to him, his voice is so relaxing.
Thinking on it before watching the video, Orcs might actually be one of the nicer races in lore. Many of them just want their own little villages or just the one city state and to be left alone. That isn't evil, that's just me on an average weekend. Sure their internal culture is rough with sons killing fathers to become chiefs and all that. But it is at least built on the foundation of honorable combat.
Because they've never been really in power.
Fuck, I love you guys! You're my kind of lore channel, you don't just recount the information, you weave it into stories and lessons in true elder scrolls fashion and theorize about the gaps in lore...Last time I enjoyed a game series this much was going through the Dark Souls series at release with EpicNameBro and VattiVidya...games really do have the power to allow people to learn real lessons and live hundreds of lives in the span of days. They're not slow to consume like books and are immersive rather than passive as movies are.
That being said, one name always struck me as out of place: The Ruddy Man. Yeah, ruddy means red and the dreugh are red, but there are a lot of words for red-like colors. We know it's Molag Bal because it's a red man and not dreugh but, just now when you mentioned them I thought...hmmm...Kinda sounds like rudder man, like the person steering the ship...then I had another thought...Dreugh are crustaceans and don't have lips, how would we know what their god is called? Perhaps they were trying to chant Mo-lag-Bal and some historian overheard it and interpreted it as Ru-dy-Man because, red and bad annunciation....
May I die and wake up in a wagon surrounded by snow and a horse thief 😔
Nice vid
The snow elves were in the right. The Nord dragon priests were misusing the eye of Magnus so they saw no other option but to try and take it and set shit straight but humans with their ignorant strength won somehow
Yeah and they had good reason to be scared of the ancient Nords. The Atmorans were strong as hell and also bred like rabbits compared to snow elves.
The Atmornas are also speculated to have abnormaly large height and strength. Ysgramor was using Wuthraad with one hand while in Skyrim we see it being used like a 2 handed battleaxe. Doesn't make sense how he was using an axe with a pommel that large with 1 hand tho
@@christopheralvarado4544 You literally see Ysgramor in Sovngarde. Hes a normal sized human, maybe a bit larger.
@@virtuoso2991 That's just game scaling him as an average nord. The guy was a giant in lore. Hell. Look at the wood elves. A average bosmer aren't supposed to be the same hight as a redguard.
Or, the snow elves just wanted that source of power for themself, to gain such as the dwemer, immortality or to conquer other regions.
@@SardonicSoul What if the current Nords are descendants of Atmoran and Snow Elven prisoners? It would explain why they are shorter than their human ancestors and their cold resistance.
Off the top of my head? Dremora...sload...dwemer...dunmer...ayleid...falmer...
Oh, and obviously the Daedric et'Ada like Bal
But I think grouping every member of an entire race with the handful of people who did some atrocious things is a bit unfair. Not every snow elf participated in the massacre at Sarthaal, not every dunmer is a slave driver, hell, I'm sure if you looked hard enough, you could find a sload or dremora who's actually a pretty chill dude. The dragons enslaved mortals, but Paarthurnax helped the humans rebel.
And while I'm at it, let's not excuse the bad deeds of individuals just because the rest of the race is considered good. The altmer are considered the peak of culture and sophistication, but the Thalmor commit systemic genocide. The bretons are a race with a rich history and a culture that encourages a "be the change you want to see" attitude, but does that excuse the Reachmen who pillage, murder, and make weapons from human remains? Even the Aedra gods aren't so holy. How many times have people been robbed of normal lives by prophecy? How many times have the Divines decided to just stand by while mortals suffered on Mundus, only getting involved once the people start praying for help?
Don't judge entire groups by the actions of individuals
playlist saved, repeat on and random on.
You stay safe as well Drew😁
If I kill a Daedric Prince like killing Mehrunes Dagon, what will happen? Will nothing happen or will I absorb his power thus making me the next Prince of Destruction? What do you think?
He is a god. How can you kill a god? What a grad and intoxicating innocence...
yeah i'd like to know, too
Odds are you would mantle him, like how in Oblivion you become Sheogorath.
Can you remaster the undead lich modded build?
I meant lich
J-Tryhard Gamer I was I could complete that mod it crashes every time I try to talk to the girl in the cabin
5:03 Nice shot of the elven woman walking the sparkling water. Very pretty.
Is it weird that I like to put on this playlist and do my nails to it?
not at all
Damn faithless Imperials!
Got to thinking, maybe I'm the Dragonborn, and I just don't know it.
yup, pretty much agree. thank the gods for Pelinal.
Elf genocide is not okay interbreeding with the elves is better because your half elf children will have more of an advantage.
All hail Peninal!!!
@@deadtoallnohonornohope Shor says they gotta go man. what do you want from me. He's Shor/Shezzarr/Lorkhan you know the one responsible for existence.
@@deadtoallnohonornohope also half breeds like Bretons were more of an accident. not many elves would willingly want to interbreed . they see it as adding flaw.
"I'll link below." And none of the links were below.
Hell of an intro👏🏾
Does anyone have news regarding tes 6 ?
I have reliable info that says itll suck dragonborn dick
@@aasdfghk45 nice 👌🏾
Who is the cruelest race? I thought it was clear. The cruelest race is well Braith
Braith is immortal. She can infiltrate the Dragonborn’s family posing as a orphan. But her motives are clear. At dusk she enters the Dragonborn’s house and steals their dreadric artefacts and sacrifices them to the most malevolent dreadric Prince. Tamriel will ever experience. Braith sacrifices these race objects to..
SCP 3166. Otherwise known as Garfield. The fat, orange cat. Braith makes contact with this manipulative being to find a way to kill the vampire Laelette. Since Laelette is Braith’s rival enemy. SCP 3166 gifts Braith the ability to summon it whenever she wants.
Beware Braith travellers. Little do you know under that facade, lies a cold cunning entity that can cause a class 4 world ending scenario.
1. Elves
2. Elves
3. Elves
In that exact order.
And you forgot the Akavirian races.
Now we need who is the kindest race
I think that Nords despite being my favorite are easily one of the cruelest because like theyre involved directly in the extinction of 2 races and "systematically" wiping out a race is never justified
The Nords shouldn't even make the list. They are no where near as cruel as the others stated here. The Snow Elves (although a splinter faction of them) did try to eradicate the Nords. So the Nords merely retaliated
@@jamesdavidson9327 dawg paws they were involved in the extinction of the snow elves the dwemer albiet indirectly tried to wipe out the dark elves might have wiped out the ayleids and actively want to wipe out the forsworn. They commit a lot of genocide
@@Cuggaconroyfan30001 Actually no, the Nords did not wipe out the Dwemer. Dumac Dwarf King did it by using kagrenacs tools on the heart of Lorkan making 99.9% of the dwarves dissapear (Clearly stated in Morrowind and Skyrim). And the Alyeids? They were wiped out by the Alessian Revolt in Cyrodiil because they brutally enslaved all the needic humans there (stated in Oblivion). And the Alyeids that were not wiped out there were massacred by the ancient Yokudans who will later become redguards. The Alyieds that escaped the slaughter by the Yokudans went to high rock, interbred with humans to create the Bretons. Nords had nothing to do with those "genocides"
@@jamesdavidson9327 So say the Nords. We only hear one side of that story, and it's clearly inaccurate. Do you really think the Nords built a city on an unused and uncontested piece of land and then the Eye of Magnus just happened to be there? Something had to have been built there before the Nords took over. Did they steal it from the Snow Elves? Did the Snow Elves warn them not to build there? There were for sure details and events that Ysgrammor didn't include in his story.
@@MinishMoosen The Elves didn't warn them. They saw the Nords as lesser beings. They very much thought the Nords were barbaric and incapable of communication and they spoke very different languages. It is also known that the Snow Elves feared the Nord's fast reproduction rates. So the eye of Magnus was very much the excuse Snow Elves needed to massacre the ONLY Nord settlement in Skyrim.
