Actually, Yagram Bagarn was kind of a dick. I mean, I know he mentioned it "might" malfunction, but losing over 200 HP permanently? FUUUUUUUUU!!!

Thank you, just what I was wondering. Guess I should go read the hobbit, it's just been one of those book I've always wanted to read, but never have for some reason? Probably video games, lol. Maybe I'll dust off the old trilogy and read that chapter again too. Originally Posted by orissa
Also, I've always loved what Warcraft did with the dwarves, especially with the Earthen story line and the curse of flesh in WotLK. Hopefully the continuation of that story with Magni in the future.Last edited by Duncanîdaho; 2012-01-09 at 05:36 PM. Reason: spelling
The generalist looks outward; he looks for living principles, knowing full well that such principles change, that they develop. It is to the characteristics of change itself that the mentat-generalist must look. There can be no permanent catalogue of such change, no handbook or manual. You must look at it with as few preconceptions as possible, asking yourself, "Now what is this thing doing?" -Children of Dune

the problem with elder scrolls dwarves is that they make your head hurt if you think too much about them.
they philosophied themselves out of existence..

Elder Scrolls dwarves are basically traditional dwarves. Originally Posted by noteworthynerd
If you want to get technical, every mortal being in Elder Scrolls is an elf. Elf is common for the word mer. Mer means "us" or "one of us" Most elves only make the distinction between man and mer because they believe that only certain beings are descended from the Aedra. That is a false belief though, because everything in the universe that didn't come out of Padomay's blood is an Aedra.
So in that sense, everything from the Altmer, to the humans, to the dwarves, to the lowliest cockroach is an elf. The Ayleids just incorrectly applied their own term by labeling some races that they believed to be related to them mer, but not doing so for other races.
The truth though, is that all physical life on Nirn was born from Lorkhan's death, making them all Aedra. So really, it's just semantics.

But their religion is wrong and I has proofs! *waves arms around* The almighty Bethesda has declared it so! (if a mod sees this out of context, yes I'm talking about a fictional religion, please don't smite me!) Originally Posted by Marimba

They all seem the same to me..
Live in underground firey lava place, forge weapons, drink a lot, scottish accent. So, I guess I'll say LoTR since that's where it came from.

I was going to say that, but I feel the DA dwarves are exceptionally heavily inspired by Tolkien's dwarves. Down to old abandoned kingdoms, the whole "past glory" and "digging up some evil in the depths" lore. So Tolkien it is! Originally Posted by Porimlys

yeah they're all ehlnofey, but they went in different paths. the mer hate being tied down as mortal, men embrace it. they dont think men arent descended from the original spirits, they're just the most assimilated/weakest. Originally Posted by Laurcus
