As someone in said thread pointed out, "You can't kill an idea." Of course we don't know the general attitude of the Dunmer after 200 years, but I would hazard a guess that some at least hold the Tribunal's teachings close to heart, whether or not the Three themselves are gone (and they pretty much are..).

I love everything they've done with their design EXCEPT for the forehead ... good god its AWFUL and makes me think of the stupid Klingons!!!! :flame: I am truly upset about it, and it almost makes me want to play as another race for my first character even though I've always played a Dark Elf in every RPG or Hack n Slash I've ever played.

I said that:) and yes I agree

Ah yes, now I remember, that *was* you!

I still can't get over the whole symbol being in the game haha. I wonder if there are any implications to this or if it's just a "for old time's sake" thing.

Dunmer are very conservative so...it makes sense, and you must consider the fact that most are refugee′s now (Vvardenfell blew up, but the rest of the country managed to escape)

Thats preset only, you still able change face how you want in during character creation in FaceGen.

I don't like that they all look "evil" now.
I mean, I like the look(Well, for the males, at least...) but I think it's stupid that every single one of them look like they're going to stab you in the gut and then go after the rest of your family to do terrible things. It is just terrible visual design in my opinion.

Yeah, that's why I refrained from saying it was their oldest belief system. Those who have read the lore know that the dunmer were originally daedra worshipers. And yes, the Tribunal are broken, but again I think some might still hold on to the teachings. And Vivec is actually, from what I've read, not dead. He's.. Well gone. It's hard to explain, but the last we actually "see" of Vivec is in something called "The Trial of Vivec" on the Imperial Library site. I suppose a lot could have changed in 200 years, however, and he could be dead now. Also, after Sotha Sil and Almalexia were killed, everyone who you told that they were dead either thought you were a heretic or just insane, so maybe there are a few who believe they're still "around." The only problem I see with that disbelief continuing into "modern" day Tamriel is that they would have heard nothing from the Three for centuries, so a lot of people would probably start thinking that they really ARE gone. I don't know, this is just my two cents.

You're probably right. I doubt the old temple hierarchy holds much power any more, though. Probably there will be some sort of mysticism and legend involved with the remembrance of the old ways. Many of the oldest dunmer would still be alive, health permitting.

In any case I don't think we'll hear much about the dunmer ways, as it seems this is the time for the Nords to have their culture fleshed out, but I would still like to see some records of what has happened in the last 200 years of Dunmer history.

I dont see how Morrowind lovers can cut down on the new dark elves, if you look back at the old dunmers you an see that that old style is there now even better.

Does anobody else think that the females look kinda like navi from Avatar?

I'm sure there will be at least a few references to it. The Temple was an important part of dunmer culture for many many years. In the wake of a province-wide disaster, I would not be surprised if there were some who sought comfort in the Temple teachings.

Edit: Argh, sorry I pretty much double-posted. And my first post had nothing to do with the current topic about the Tribunal. Question, are you able to delete your own posts? I can't seem to find anything to do so... :ermm:
