Another Bloodmoon

Post » Mon Jun 13, 2011 12:03 pm

In the Elderscrolls lore every couple(two) centuries Hiricine would have his famous hunt in which his hounds(werewolves) would hunt down everyone as game. Those left standing he would deem "worthy" of being his prey. In the last Bloodmoon the Player character vanquished Hircine at the climix of the Hunt and sent him back to Oblivion though not before Hircine said he would be back when the Bloodmoon rose again. so its been roughly 2 and 1/2 centuries since this event and he is overdue for a return. This could set the stage for werewolve in either an expansion or in game release. Is this possibly the reason they had for basing the time exactly 2 hundred years after OB? Tell me your thoughts.

No, it's not why they're basing it 200 years after Oblivion. It would make for an interesting DLC though. Or, the Hunt could have already happened between the two games.

Woah...I never thought of it this way...Hopefully it's true!



(Hopefully Bethesda won't retcon their lore either...)

Sounds tasty, Hircine is one of the more interesting deadric prices.

not if based on the lore and the bloodmoon rises every 2 centuries. Skyrim is 2 centuries after oblivion.

Any excuse to bring Hircine back works for me, he is my favorite daedric prince.... er I guess that might be obvious.

The best part of The Infernal City was their run through Hircine's realm. (For me, that is)

Well, checking the ES timeline, Skyrim takes place about 207 years after the events of morrowind.... So I dunno :unsure2:

This would be the PERFECT excuse to bring in werewolves! Bloodmoon was my favorite thing that came out of Morrowind, and that is saying something :P

Maybe there'll be a new lore book recounting the last hunt Hircine held, 5-7 years ago. :thumbsup:

Seriously, my take on this is the same as all the "Solstheim DLC?" threads: Been there, done that, there are plenty of Daedra princes, let's do something new.

You're messed, I'd love to see a Solstheim DLC... not sure I'd hop on for a full expansion though. I'd pay 5 bucks for it, but if they're going to put real effort into an expansion I'd like it to be new.

It'd be nice to visit Solstheim if Ravenrock hadn't failed :(

How about a $50 expansion that includes another territory.

^Werebears this time??
I've read somewhere that Hircine's realm is filled with werebeings. "If Hircine's around, so will his minions." or something to that context.

Ugh, I hope we can have a DLC with Namira. I dont understand the Obsession with Hiricine. he's a hunter :shrug:

That said, this sounds like something that should be a mages guild quest or something.

That argument would make sense, if Arena didn't feature all of Tamriel. I don't see anything wrong with revisiting Solsthiem or the Bloodmoon Prophecy. It'd certainly be better than any other Bethesda DLC/Expansion, not including Shivering Isles.


Though, I did recently play through Bloodmoon again, and it seemed a little bit more goofy than I remember it, though that was more tied to the strange Skaal practices.


Actually, instead of Solsthiem, isn't there supposed to be an Island north of Skyrim, between Tamriel and Atmora? The Kingdom of Solitude held it at one point I believe.

Yeah, I don't want to revisit the island. Who's to say the hunt won't take place someplace elsewhere?
