So help me I love traveling with Serana

Posted: 09 May 2018 09:25 PM PDT

I've played for years, but only recently with the three DLC's so I'm a little late to the "Serana gush" party (if that's even a thing). What I love the most is that she seems entirely cleared of idle markers. She's constantly interacting with the world, prays at shrines, always smithing, mining, etc. My favorite was noticing she wasn't with me as I left the Bannered Mare, so I went back in and there she was carousing and applauding Mikael. Whether it was an oversight by Bethesda or a brilliant portrayal of someone who's been walled up in a crypt for six centuries (at least) and trying EVERYTHING in sight, I adore it.

Skyrim is the new White Album.

Posted: 10 May 2018 07:43 AM PDT

I just got an Oculus Rift, so I'm naturally looking at picking up Skyrim VR. While debating on buying it now, or waiting for the summer sale, it occurred to me that Skyrim is the new White Album.

I have bought (or been gifted) the White Album in pretty much every major format it was released in over the years. Vinyl, 8 track, cassette, reel to reel, CD, digital...

I started playing Skyrim on the 360 on release day. Eventually moved to the PC. Now I'm getting it for VR. I have a feeling in a few years I'll be buying it again in some even more advanced format.

So congratulations Bethesda. You've managed to create a game which has not only held up well over almost a decade, but you've been able to expand it into new technology to keep us buying it over and over.

Killing dragons midair

Posted: 10 May 2018 06:01 AM PDT

Does anyone else love it when you kill a dragon while it is flying and it just chrashes into the ground and creates a huge ditch? It is the coolest feeling and the ditch stays there forever as far as I know.

How Does Vampirism Work in Canon?

Posted: 10 May 2018 03:47 AM PDT

Not 100% on if this is the correct subreddit to talk about TES canon. Anyway Molag Bal is supposedly the one that made vampires. My question is more about how it is spread within canon. In Skyrim you either get a disease or Harkon/Serana bite you to give it to you so it seems like vampires are infectious via wounds or something. The problem that I run into is that nobody you bite and none of the vampire cattle ever seemingly turn into vampires. Can vampires control the spread of their disease somehow so they can suck blood without turning their catch into a vampire which they can no longer feed on? Or is this just a problem with game mechanics not working perfectly with canon? Obviously the player turning everybody in vampires would be game breaking and I guess you could presume cattle do turn eventually and they're killed before they do or something similar? What do you think?

Alduin's Wall and the Dragonguard lore

Posted: 10 May 2018 12:04 AM PDT

Alduin's Wall --- https://imgur.com/a/bk7StdD

This may be a bit of a long and boring read, but I think it's important lore that not many people may know about. I just reached the part of the game where you're introduced to Esbern, and the two of us meet up with Delphine to discuss the dragon crisis. He begins speaking of Alduin's wall and lays the book "Annals of the Dragonguard" on the table.

To understand why this book is relevant, we must first know that the history of the Blades stretches back many centuries, to the Akaviri Dragonguard. They relentlessly hunted dragons in Akavir, and in 1E 2703 they invaded Tamriel to continue this crusade. They marched through Morrowind and Skyrim with little resistance until being met by the united forces of Cyrodiil under Reman I at Pale Pass. As soon as they heard Reman's voice at Pale Pass, they knelt before him and proclaimed him Dragonborn, claiming he was what they had come to seek.

These new additions to his army did much to enable Reman's conquest and unification of most of Tamriel to found the Second Empire. The Dragonguard now had a secondary goal - to protect the Dragonborn. This carried on into the Blades who were protectors of the Dragonborn bloodline, the Septim emperors. However, the Dragonguard had not forgotten their original goal, and they continued hunting dragons with great success, especially in Skyrim.

In my research, I wasn't able to get a clear date of exactly when this order was established, but let's skip forward to more relevant information. In 1E 2801 the Dragonguard were actively hunting down dragons in Skyrim. They set quotas for the Jarls in order to have a large enough fighting force to combat the high number of dragons. In order to meet these quotas, the Dragonguard seized "hostages". From my understanding they were freely fed and housed while being trained to kill dragons. Basically, they were conscripted to aid the Dragonguard acolytes.

Not every Dragonguard agreed that these forced conscriptions should be allowed (as noted in the book "Annals of the Dragonguard"). It obviously had a negative impact on the populace of Skyrim. Most of these "hostages" were taken from Markarth and Hroldan.

It is noted that in 1E 2804 a rebellion broke out in Winterhold. The Dragonguard were ordered to help suppress the rebellion, but refused on the grounds that it violated their Oath of Alegiance. The emperor didn't take kindly to their refusal and cut off their supply chains. Thankfully the Dragonguard were prepared for such a possibility and were self-sufficient.

In 1E 2805, Winterhold was sacked by Kalien. He was not permitted to enter the Dragonguard because of this. Even so, the locals still found fault with the Dragonguard for association and the trust they had spent years cultivating with Skyrim's people crumbled.

The Dragonguard were granted permission to begin the construction of Alduin's Wall in 1E 2812 by Emperor Reman II. This historical structure was a massive undertaking and required the recruitment of skilled craftsmen from all across the Empire. Its purpose was to concisely commit to record all of the dragonlore the Dragonguard had accumulated over the course of their existence, and to preserve this knowledge against the forgetfulness of the ages.

Alduin's Wall depicts several key events through the history of Tamriel such as the Dragon War, Jagar Tharn's rule, the Staff of Chaos, the activation of the Numidium, the Warp in the West, the fall of the Tribunal, the eruption of Red Mountain, the Oblivion Crisis, the Skyrim Civil War, and the return of Alduin, the World-Eater. The Dragonguard finished the construction in 1E 2818 (roughly 2000 years prior to the Dragonborn's emergence in 4E 201).

The prophecies written on the wall read from left to right as follows:

  1. When misrule takes its place at the eight corners of the world. (the shattering of the Staff of Chaos)

  2. When the Brass Tower walks and Time is reshaped. (Activation of the Numidium)

  3. When the thrice-blessed fail and the Red Tower trembles. (Eruption of Red Mountain)

  4. When the Dragonborn Ruler loses his throne, and the White Tower falls. (The Oblivion Crisis, followed by the sacking of the White-Gold Tower after the Aldmeri Dominion's attack on the Imperial City)

  5. When the Snow Tower lies sundered, kingless, bleeding. (Skyrim's Civil war)

  6. The World-Eater wakes, and the Wheel turns upon the Last Dragonborn. (Alduin's return)

With these grim prophecies made, they added the final one - a prophecy of hope. It declares that one indvidual, gifted by Akotosh with the same incredible powers held by the dragons themselves, will become Alduin's doom and the savior of man.

Despite being a wonder of the ancient world and the grave reasons for its construction, the location of Alduin's Wall slowly became lost over the passage of the countless centuries, and its very existence, ironically, was universally forgotten by almost everyone.

So thank Esbern. Without his knowledge of Alduin's wall and the Dragonguard who built it, mankind very well might have been beyond saving, even with the Dragonborn's intervention.
