  1. After many requests in comments to do this, I finally made a first experimental “lore collection”. Many related lore videos trimmed of their fluff (intro and outro), some slightly updated and bridged to each other with short narrations to make it feel like one big lore video and make it more watchable to watch after each other. In this case it’s a big Tamriellic bestiary. I hope you guys enjoy it! And if you do, let me know! And I may do more!

    FYI: This week I didn’t have much time to record, but as a small teaser for upcoming new content: A Dark Brotherhood story, and a legendary love story (valentine’s day ahoy!) are coming up soon! And I am working on a bigger project in the background.

  2. Sea Giants might be from Atmora, the ancestral home of Ysgramor, since books about Atmora say it's an extremely hostile place. It is speculation that the original inhabitants, which were titans, became smaller due to the sudden dragon appearance.

  3. Maybe the nymphs are just native to high rock and hammerfell? I don't think ESO should be considered canon given the damage it's done though I guess oblivion and Skyrim have also done irreparably damaged so idk lol

  4. Mortal shows up in your home plane of oblivion, ransacks your domical, learns your best friend's nymic and alters his nature beyond all recognizability, demands you give him your heart, refuses to elaborate. Another mortal shows up a week later, takes you prisoner, demands you reveal all your secrets, records them all, but doesn't otherwise harm you until he disappears, this one also refuses to elaborate. A week after that, another mortal, this one gets naked and fights everything within a 45 mile radius, taking out entire villages for years while they all have to reform, takes offense to just the notion that you might not understand his motives, kills you for wondering out loud a little too close to the killing field. You reform, are told it's all the same guy doing different "quests" and so far, has yet to elaborate on what that even means. Such is life as a lesser Daedra.

  5. First off, great job, and great idea.
    While watching the part about the Chub Loon, I remembered my newest theory regarding the Atmorans.
    Iirc, in lore, it is stated that todays nords and giants from Skyrim both descendet from the atmorans and at some point in time diverged into the bigger, but dumber giants and the smaller, but smarter nords, and that in the past, the nords were taller, possibly giants themselves by todays standard.
    So my theory is: what if the atmorans were, in a way, physically more similar to khajiit, metaphorically speaking? As in, they had a far wider range/spectrum of physical divergence (morphology?) compared to the more "uniform" appearance of modern nords, or the other races of men and mer?
    What if they were closer to the "giants" from norse Myths or the depiction of the Jotunnar people in God of War, in that they were one people, but the individual height could range from just about 6-7 ft/1,80-2,10 m (I just assume that was the standard and seldom smaller, since the description of the dwemer as Dwarves apparently goes back to the atmorans/early nords towering over the dwemer, viewing them as small, as "Dwarves") to up to the size of a mountain? Similar to how the khajiit range from the ordinary housecat looking alfiq, over ones like the ohmes, to the huge senche-raht, which are apparently about the size of a mammoth, producing both bipedals and quadrupeds, plantigrades and digitigrades, going from beastial looking to easily passing for a bosmer (or human?), all within the same people.

    If so, that could indead mean, that Atmora is still inhabited, just by the atmorans, that were more on the titanic side of the spectrum, since larger bodies help in cold environments, like with whales.
