In our latest Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim video we delve into the evil that is Molag Bal.
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.

That shit is so brutal
I love it
Edward Perez incredibly METAL
Yep

Jan Sitkowski ok since it is hilarious 😂 I’ll throw a 🐕 a 🦴 that is a like
What if Molag Bal is evil because someone stole his sweetroll
bESt PloT TwiST EveR!!!!!!
His Mommy loved Mehrunes Dagon more.

Molag Bal: I thought you liked debauchery, too?
Sanguine: Yeah, like cool debauchery, like sexy debauchery, not this psycho trailer park 💩.”
😂😂😂
Nice Rick and morty reference.😂 I tip my hat to you sir
I like how there are about 4 gods dedicated to some form of sex lol
@@sethleoric2598 there are none dedicated to sex, sanguines sphere is debauchery and sex is just one of the forms that takes. Molag is the Prince of domination and of course rape is a form of donination
Lol underrated comment
Why OF COURSE Molag Bal is the most evil daedric prince.
After all, he is the reason why Serana is terrified of temples and, subsequently, can't marry the Dragonborn
My Not Very Original Name dammit you Molag bal stealing dragon born future wife!
Winter Melon Yeah, Morag Bal doing that makes me want to go all the way against his own ass.
Actually this is another good point lol. She was raped by a "daedric lord" " in a temple" and now fears this interaction. A day known as his " summoning day" offered to be forced snuggled by a demonic God and forced to become a daughter of colharber. U know the prophecy that can litteritly make nirn damn close to the representation of Coldharber, by blocking put the sun for eternity? Considering the fact that Coldharber is a twisted version pf nirn with no sunlight. The fact that vampires on nirn even attempted such a feat, and it was by his immortal offspring should let u know just how much of a blight he is on tamreal. Let's not forget what his plan was when he worked with " Manimarco"
@@ramblingentertained it was already done by the vestige during the second era.
G D But you weren’t a Dragonborn then.
Actually I am the most evil and deadliest daedric prince.
Nazeem, Daedric Prince of the Cloud District. Do you get to the cloud district very often? Oh what am I saying, of course you don’t.
Daedric prince of the Cloud District very often
But is there any PUSSSSSSSIIIIIIIIIEEE?
Xenovista I’m immortal, like I said. A daedric prince
Last time I checked you were living in the drunken huntsman. Might have something to do with your failing farm. Do I get to the cloud district? Yes I do. I wont kill you I'll let you live in torment trying to be something when your not. That's kind of a theme with you pretending to be something your not. Perhaps your not a daedric prince similar to the way your not in the cloud district.
Stop asking me about the cloud district XD, I've been meaning to tell you this for ages!!!!

Pretty sure sauron from LOTR would kick his ass
@@delta2372 Morgoth: am I a joke to you?
I feel like he mains Drukhari against Sanguine
@Lachlan Bold The most elite billionaire's and A list celebrities drink something called adrenochrome im not gonna say much but they get it from kids. They are pure evil and they sacrifice to dark gods Molech and Baal for "youth" and power. The world cannibal comes from the Latin root priest of Baal their almost like witches and vampires but in a sex culty way. It causes temporary schizophrenia and ages you when you are off its supposedly the strongest drug out there and few people know about it . Nothing will ever change though they've got us and they've got us good giving the average person a just bearable existence while the have enough wealth for over 100 lifetimes and we expect a corrupt system to balance itself out. The only verdict is vengeance; a vendetta, held as a votive not in vain, for the value and veracity of such shall one day vindicate the vigilant and the virtuous.
Sometimes I wish I could transport myself to the Elder Scrolls universe permanently, but then I remember how terrifying it is...
true, in the view of a player and dragonborn, I just have to reflect on things to see how little power the princes have over my character duo to reload and Dragon god blessings
now, from a normal person's view, it would be scary and they would seek all the power they could get their hands on to make it in life, even if they don't sell their soul it is still at risk if someone trap them in soul gems
I'd just like to be an argonian tbh, they reincarnate because of the hist and their culture sounds pretty cool, I just hope I am born in Black Marsh and not in Windhelm or Morrowind.
Eh I’d do it. So long as I could transport directly into my character. Then I’d be able to finally figure out how to marry Serana without any mods

@@elessartelcontar147 are meridia and array friends?
@@sirwaylonthe1st239 Canonically I don't think so, but if they could be! She technically isn't a daedra per say, she was a Magna-Ge, and they represent the same concepts (life and death), they both dislike undeath. The only issue could be that she supported the Ayeleids, who were pretty messed up
@@elessartelcontar147 He is her worst enemy, she has many times thwarted his efforts for dominating the world, in ESO his followers know Meridia as "The Shining bitch"
@@elessartelcontar147 as she was cast down from the magna ge and became daedra... It is possible her particular hatred for Molag Bal and his sphere is more akin to a woman scorned. It would take a pretty strong feeling to go behind the backs of your own kind and associate with the enemy. After all the magna ge cast her out because she associated with the deadra (specified as unnamed and illicit), and it is said that her intentions are unclear. It's not outside the realm of possibility that they were lovers at one point in time and at some point Molag Bal stabbed her in the back. She might actually be out for vengeance. For example, Boethiah seems to have possibly been a lover of Lorkhan and out of vengeance for him ripping out his heart she turned Trinimac into Malacath. It would appear these entities hold grudges.

Leave it at a Shrine of Arkay.
Molag Bal likes the Dragonborn because he/she is domination incarnate.
Good point, he must really like dragons in general then, because they were basically created to dominate
Warlord
Hey, at least molag bal treats the vampires decent. In mehrunes dagon's realm no matter who u are *u get tortured*
Except for you are a argonian under the hist effect
Then dremoras get tortured
You realize what he does to make a vampire right?
@@tiazoh that's just a one time per person, and it's not even that common. Those vampires create other vampires as well who create more vampires, those vampires will go to his realm when they die, so they won't be constantly tortured
@@ivans.5959 Im pretty sure they get tortured too
@@harrycallahan5018
Molag Bal only tortures the weak
Dagon is just random destruction romanticized as "revolution"
Both failed, but Bal has all the vampires and necromancers following him, the Mythic Dawn is dead, talking about being a follower of Dagon only makes you look as an anarchic freek, Dagon would nuke Tamriel just because, Bal would torture the weak and empower the strong.
If Sheo didnt give cheese then id consider him evil.
Nah, he isn't evil. He's just batshit insane.
Genius will appear like a madman infront of a fool.
You may think he is insane but every plan he ever cooked
up worked perfectly. Unlike Molag Ball or
Dagon, Sheogorath never failed in his thinking, nor
in his execution. Hermeus Mora is a complete fool
infront of Sheogorath. Sheogorath can just
destroy all otgher deadric princes combined.
ummmm alright... Seems like you're taking this a little too seriously buddy, giving some weird vibes...
he is right tho
@@morgan1211 Sure, doesn't change the fact that Sheo is objectively insane.
And i thought SANGUINE knew how to party
Don't ya go disrespectin my boi sanguine.
Sanguine simply makes people fools of themselves. Molag Bal gives you a living hell, and then kills you, brings you to his realm, and then continues to torment you
Maxisamo1 no rape them all
I have a personal headcanon for why the princes fight for followers so hard. The princes are using souls to keep score on a game not dissimilar to monopoly (just more bloodshed and trash talking). When the scores start getting high enough, the princes begin gearing up for a battle to decide the fate of Mundas. Then Akatosh; father of mortals, master of all, OP af; waltzes through the daedric realms, taking back all the souls and either shuttling them off to eternal rest or dumping them back on Mundas for another attempt at getting through life without screwing up. The daedric princes are basically left to rebuild their armies and the apocalypse is postponed for a few more years. No one ever finds out because a daedric prince is not about to admit that Big Brother refuses to let them keep the souls they claim. The aiming at particular souls is either princes reclaiming favourites of previous rotations; or taking over a follower of someone else that was a particular pita to them personally.
The even funnier extension to this is that the daedric princes don’t know Akatosh is doing it to all of them; and it’s a mad scramble to for a prince get some followers back after heks been through without letting all of the others know you have no army.
It makes sense, that could be a reason why they want mortal souls
Dank they really afraid of Akatosh that much aren't they?
So basically buying batteries for an xbox controller
@@kwagiajhYT, he’s the Dragon God of Time and not entirely all together. They wouldn’t want to get his attention…just in case they get all of it.
@@lord0jackostar idk m9 ofc they all afraid of his power.. just remember i got news what cause did on warp in the west A.K.A Dragonbreak is because Akatosh doing a recycle bin on the system xD 🐴😅😂
I think I figured out Molag Bal's "redeeming" quality: he wants to make mortals strong. Molag Bal loathes weakness, and has admitted to respecting those who resist him. _Molag Bal actually wants mortals to defy him because that shows true strength._ Those who worship him are still showing submission and weakness, which is why Molag Bal torments and devours the souls of those who worship him. This Prince doesn't want your reverence, he wants you to triumph over whatever he throws at you. Only then will you be worthy of his respect. He's harsh, cruel, and horrible, but Molag Bal does have a redeeming quality if you look hard enough. And maybe squint a little.
That is exactly why I like him.
That sounds more like Boethiah, aside from the defying him part as she hates it when people do that. I think when people defy him he uses that against them. Think of when Anakin said he wanted to kill Palpatine when he found out he was a Sith Lord. Did Palpatine fight back? No. He said he could feel his anger. He was convincing Anakin that this feeling he had was good for him, further turning him towards the dark side.
I think Molag Bal uses the same method. He will do whatever he has to in order to corrupt someone. So when you demand to be released from his altar in Markarth he obliges, but still tells you to find the priest of Boethiah. He could kill you right then and there. But in your mind you just made a Daedric Prince do what you said to do. You probably would feel pretty powerful and then you start seeing from his point of view; power feels good. Making people do what you want feels good.
i mean yea if you accept his request he just laughs at us and if we try to deny him he becomes a bit serious in his tone. Guy is pure evil but also wants his followers and even normal mortals to become strong and not be weak, i hate his guts but i respect his attitude towards becoming strong.
That's why he's my favourite fictional god
@The King in Yellow you're right. That's relative, my favourite god then
MOLAG BALLIN'
We fly high, no lie, you know this
This is how you get your soul trapped
Molag Balls deep
"He is the kind of guy who never thanks the bus driver."
THAT MONSTER!
It was this quest in Skyrim that actually had me feel afraid of the daedric princes it made understand just how powerful they can be. I mean he literally has you beat a guy to death then brings him back to life unscathed physically just for the laugh of watching it happen again.
Also he is one of the few deadra who you can't opt out of. With the others either you know what you are getting involved with or you can leave once you find out. With Molag Bal once you enter the house you must kill for him no matter what.
Actually dragonborn surpass him
I think this song from Elder Scrolls online best describes Molag Bal.
Of all the Daedric princes
There's one with shock and gull
His goal, the domination
and enslavement of us all
The God of Schemes
The Prince of Pain
The Captain of Corruption.
He tills the land of Tamriel
And sows the seeds of destruction
The planemeld is nigh, the planemeld is nigh
Our world will disappear.
The planemeld is nigh, the planemeld is nigh,
our doom is drawing near.
Chains of Darkness grip the land
And draw it ever near.
To his Nightmare, Coldharbor,
Where hope bows down to fear,
Tearing souls of innocents
into eternal pain.
While his Daedric minions sing praises of his name.
The Planemeld is nigh
The planemeld is nigh.
As Molag Bal commands
The planemeld is nigh
The planemeld is nigh
Our doom is now at hand.

I can't believe you left out the time that vivec had a days long bang sesh with molag bal.
I still recall the first time I did his quest line. When in the house, when Molag Bal makes everything rumble and shit flies everywhere, I was actually a bit scared cause I didn't know if I was gonna die an instant death or what. It was truly well done to put that feeling into me. But the feeling didn't last long cause while all that was going on, I was in stealth mode and when Bal told us to fight, I backstabbed the vigilant (or whatever he was) with the kill animation and I was like, dude, I was right next to you and you didn't see me coming ? I wasn't even much behind him, like maybe just right behind one of his arms when the kill animation triggered. I actually laughed out loud which dissipated all of what happened right before.

I did Molag bal's quest with the Serana dialogue add on mod. Let's just say that it showed how evil molag bal truly is.
It takes a lot of the subtext from the original game and makes it into explicit text. Much respect to the mod author for handling it very well
If the Daedric Princes were metal genres, Molag Bal would definitely be Black Metal.

You meant "The Deadric Prince Of Metal"
I love being a vampire lord and his mace is decent, but I am a nice vampire lord always give to charity and only decimate bandits and other villains, though my favorite daedric prince is sanguine
@@j751 feeding doesn't kill so can feed off sleeping people also though can use vampire seduction on an enemy/villain type of the levels match well enough you can then feed off them
@@j751 I don't break in houses and things, I simply enter the Temple of Arkay/caverns of the dead in Whiterun and feed off the sleeping priest so no breaking and entering required. Also I'm simply saying you don't have to be a brute killing and feeding off people for the hell of it so comparatively you can be a good Vampire only feeding when necessary besides as the Dragonborn hero of the world you can be and do what you want. Power means never having to apologize; Machiavelli said something like that.
@@j751 The greater good is how, you the hero have to face Alduin and send him somewhere else for a long while, you also have to face and kill countless bandits and other villains and zombies many times, so Vampire Lord or Werewolf grants you additional strength and power to face all these foes and help everyone. So a slightly bad thing must be done to help save the world oh well. In fact take real life during one of the world wars Britain/UK had to stop sending aid to lesser/weaker places so it's people and the rest of the allies could defeat the Axis nations, many people in those lesser places died cause of that so once again the greater good was done.
@@j751 the feeding doesn't kill the priest or anything like that but you kinda get why Vampire Lord can be a sort of good thing now. Also the villain/bandit types I use seduction on to then feed they are gonna be killed anyway cause they are villains and the feeding does some good for the hero.
@@j751 so you think just killing them is best?

You upload this as I’m in coldharbour stopping the planemeld, nice. Also may I just say Bal is pretty much just the ultimate R/nice guy
Good thing he doesn't exist, dang! His mace is one of the coolest weapons in the game though.
Molag Bal looks a lot like The God Hand Members from Berserk. The concept about corrupting the most pure and good person that you talked about reminds me of Griffith turning into Femto.
He is hands down my favorite, when i was a kid and i did his quest in oblivion i instantly just had to like him, he was badass, he punished his enemies, and he gave you an awesome mace in the end. I was super happy when i found out his role in eso. I'm excited to find out his role in TES6!
Zootnoison yeah being a rapist is so badass!
Captain Zoltan77 He has done so much more than that. You have to give a fearful respect to the father of vampires. The guy almost pulled an entire planet into hell.
@@captainzoltan7737 bro, rape is pretty wicked
@@destinthegamergecko1831 lol wtf
As someone said in the comments, he may be evil. But if you look hard enough you could find a redeemable quality:
He want to make you strong. I know, he does a lot of bad things to the people who first submit to him, but he likes it if you fight him back (like saying no to his quest), he will like you even more because he believes that the strong should rule the weak.
So he will torture you for being weak, but he loves when mortals show dominance towards others and strength
Molag Bal is the edgelord of the Daedric princes
Fear him mortals, for he is Molag-Bal, non-thanker of bus drivers!
When I first heard Molag's voice I literally thought I was hearing a demon speaking then I realized it was a Daedra...
Molag Bal's voice in Skyrim was on point. His new voice in ESO feels off with his character.
My guess is they wanted him to be more of a monstrous demonic figure of huge scale hence the tone of the voice. In skyrim he sounded more like a devil goblin.
In ESO he was voiced by malcolm McDowell, who was alex from a clockwork orange
ESO?
god short for elder scrolls online
Not really. I much prefer the booming ESO voice. it fits just fine as well. its just his more directly brutal side not sexy "Crush his booooones it gives me a booooner" side
You bend to meeeeeeee!
*F O O L*
But, Dagon does not declair winner, while there is a pawn on the board.
You give your soulll to meEeEEEEE?!
Deeper... into the bowels.
You're mine now mortal
If Molag Bal sees the vampires from the Twilight, he'd probably get a restraining order on them.
If you do the quest for him in Skyrim, it may accually be a good decision, even if you are role playing a more good hearted player. You not only take a priest of boethia out of the way, but you also make sure that the mace doesn’t fall into the hands of someone who will use it for... more interesting purposes.
That is kinda bad reasoning for a morally good character
@@acat6145 objectively yes but it depends on how hard you’re sticking to your characters morals lol. I usually play more loose with it just because it’s more fun
Boethia is a lot less destructive out of the Daedric Princes. Not exactly great to trade a Boethiah Priest for a Dragonborn for Coldharbour.
The quest of Molag Bal inside Markhart abandoned house is one of my favorites so far.
Play that shit with the SDA, serana dialogue add-on mod, you'll have nightmares.
Molag Bal is by far my favourite daedric prince. Mostly because he is the father of all vampires and I freaking love vamps!
Same, not to mention his mace is effing badass. I really hope they bring the Vampire Lords back in es6 maybe, as dlc.
Mehrunes Dagon for the win
@@lemur-kaiser3912 As the Hero of Kvatch I don't like Mehrunes Dagon.
I had forgotten about that "thank the bus driver" meme, thanks.
how i barely found your channel with the lore explained is beyond me, but i seriously grabbed popcorn and watched. Great work!!!!
I’m loving these Daedric lore videos. A+ work, FudgeMuppet!
I am a devout follower of Hermaeus Mora, who follows me.
I'm a devout follower of Mehrunes Dagon, sorry
Sanguine all the way, baby. Let the sin begin!
I follow Mara, the world is tough and harsh. We all have the right to love and compassion
*Sithis stares intensifies* "How cute."

Well the funny thing is that Molag Bal is one of the few Daedric Princes who actually sees protagonist as... equal, in a certain way of course.
He is my favourite Daedric Prince, but I see his nature from a bit different perspective, which was not fully covered in this video.
First, what's wrong with domination on its own? Does every protagonist "dominate" his enemies and makes the world around him as he WANTS it to be?
Did Dragonborn win the fight with Alduin because he was "Good/Right" or because he was STRONGER?
I agree that Molag Bal wants to dominate the world in an "evil" way, but I separate "evil" and "desire of domination" in his characteristics.
Second, vampirism. Yes, first vampire was not a volunteer, it was an act of evil etc, but... that was an experiment!
In result, he gave mortals an option to disobey Arkey and live as long as they want if they are strong enough at least to defend themself.
Yes, vampire lifestyle dispose to evil actions which Molag Bal probably would prefer (so it is a kind of corruption), but in the end it's up to them to do decide how to behave.
Other Daedric Princes might interact with protagonist for fun (e.g. Sanguine, Sheo), to have one-time bargain (i.e. I want you to do X and I'll reward you with Y and that's it, e.g. Azura) or expect certain type of behaviour/worship (e.g. canibalism, kill undead etc.),
but not Molag Bal. He gives you a mace to crush YOUR enemies, whoever they are, and... he will be watching. So he basically likes protagonist AS IS and respects his right to have his own judgments as long as he is STRONG enough to defend them.
Makes sense and being a vampire is awesome
I LOVE HIS MACE! My Shang Tsung Dark Elf is the ultimate soul gem seller in all of Skyrim because of that mace. ^_^ I think I will level him up more so. Right now Shangy is level 75 while Sub-Zero is level 86. Still can't defeat Ebony Warrior though. :(
K
@@LadyCoyKoi ebony warrior is i am guessing at lvl 100 stat wise
That....... is a really interesting interpretation. Bal is certainly much more complex then what he presents.
I can see him and Alastor getting along or having a rivalry with each other over who's more powerful.
Molag would definitely win tho
@@JakeMckay1738
Yeah unless Giant Alastor gets summoned and Alastor's Staff would be a cool Daedra Artifact mod too
Does he atleast say thank you to someone that opens the door for you?....
Not even once
He fuckin rapes them.
for your next new vanilla build, i think it would be SO cool if you could make a warrior build that could be able to fit in with the dark brotherhood?
I LOVE these lore videos on the deadra and the metaphysics of the elder scrolls. Keep it up!
I agree with this assessment. While many of the Daedric Princes do evil things, and are most certainly dark...to be Evil with a capital ‘E’, relies on your intent. By that standard, Molag Bal fits the bill, and being he is what and who he is, it’s a testament to the set of balls Meridia has on her to openly defy him the way she has, with no fear. Props to her.
Judging by all the torture shit in TES4 through oblivion gates, and in Mankar Camoran's paradise (which was probably made by Mehrunes Dagon), Mehrunes Dagon clearly loves pointless cruelty & torture as much as Molag Bal does. He's not all philosophy.
yeah, but mehrunes dagon was just mindless torture
molag ball was a systematic master of torture and sadism beyond comprehension
People : molag bal is unredemable
Me : vampires , a cool mace , didn’t abandon his dog , takes care of business
Molag bal the type of dude to step on your brand new nikes with his muddy shoes
I love playing games while listening to you, great vid! My fav prince
Ah, Molag Bal, Lord of Subjugation, not exactly the sort of fellow to have a nice cup of tea with, but exactly the type of person to force you to drink the blood of your entire family and then ‘persuade’ you to swear fealty to his rule, y’know, he’s quite a mean one, is Molag, but hey, he looks pretty Badass!
I don’t think it can be understated how utterly vile Molag Bal is. Sure, princes like Mehrunes Dagon may want to render Nirn to a smouldering ruin, but Molag Bal wants to _break_ Nirn. He wants to break it, you, and everything else you know and love. He wants to grind hope and joy to dust and have the universe serve him in misery for the rest of time, just because it is his nature to do so.
The lord of edge
The guy is badass, but I like his mace.
The voice for Molag Bal in ESO is incredible.
Blood for the blood god! Skulls for the skull throne!
Wait, this isn't 40k ....
"Mortals who view his realm would weep"
Actually, I found when I was in Cold Harbor in ESO, i was taking stock of EVERYTHING around me. It was just so neat looking!
Yall made me fell in love with skyrim again!
After knowing what he did to Serana, I just threw the mace in Morthal's abandoned house and never returned there
So wholesome. So based. He reminds me of my grandmother.
8:40 - This line is from the book titled Spirit of the Daedra, which is commonly found throughout Cyrodiil in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
Been binge watching your vids while doing my writing! Keep up the awesome work guys!
Love your channel I have learned a lot about the elder scrolls lore thanks to you btw love your Morag tong build
Sheogorath is cool he allows you to become himself and enjoy madness until the next incarnation of himself
Molag bal is one of my favorite princes lol.
Every time you see an ancient ruin in a cave, with massive carved pillars and stonework... Someone looked at it upon creation and said "Thats quite nice work, Bob! Very well done!"
The Skyrim statue of Molag Bal looks like he has a widows peak from a haircut you'd seen in an insurance office.
