Dwarfs

Post » Thu Mar 03, 2011 11:52 am

I remember in oblivion that there were always the weapons but never the race... this actually kind of annoyed me. i mean its just strikes me as odd to have the weapon type but not the creator... any thoughts? ^_^

There is EXTENSIVE information on the Dwarves/Dwemer that used to inhabit Tamriel. Look it up.

Didn't ask for the information asked if there going to be in the game... hidden or not

strikes me as odd that they still have the weapons and the dwarfs themselves are not there anymore... hidden or otherwise, it would still be interesting to be able to find them...

In short: The Dwemer were an average sized race that disappeared from Nirn completely after the Battle of Red Mountain, never to be seen again. Only their ruins remain. Many of those can be visited in Morrowind, and it looks like Skyrim will have some too.

The information will tell you if they're going to be in-game or not. They will not be. They literally disappeared back in the First Era. It was a huge plot point in Morrowind. Their technology and equipment does not rust or deteriorate. All of the questions you're asking about are already answered in detail. They will not be coming back.

They are a lost race. It wouldn't make sense for them to be in the game.

all the dwaves died out/mysteriously vanished thousands of years ago because they messed around with the heart of Lorkhan.

PLAY MORROWIND, IT EXPLAINS THIS ^.^

Dwarves are extinct long long ago. You should go play Morrowind, you would learn alot that would probably help you enjoy TES even more

The dwarves (also called the dwemer) are extinct, the products of their labor can still be scavenged and ruins of their settlements are all over Vvardenfell (and thus were quite common in TES III). I'd love to see a dwemer ruin or two in TES V but I don't know if it would fit the setting well. Dwemer ruins also would require a ton of unique art resources and it probably isn't cost-effective to make them all if you aren't going to include a lot of dwemer ruins.

i said it once ill say it again im not asking for information... as i said in my post if there going to still have there weapons it would make more sense then them just appear out of no where... if you can explain how the weapons keep appearing out of no where with out the creator still being there. there is no rational explanation for that. if there are going to be the weapons in the game make sure its easily explained. if the creator no longer exist then the weapons shouldn't ether

Dwemer ruins have already been confirmed for Skyrim. :D You can even see one in the trailer.

It was all made a long time ago. Some are still being discovered even today because the ruins are so dangerous and guarded by still-working robotic guardians.

:rolleyes: :facepalm:


No it wouldn't make more sense for them to appear, and if you read even more of the helpful posts here you would also know their weapons do not degrade or rust, they were an empire spanning morrowind and hammerfell, and people collect, sell, lose, trade, buy those weapons of course after a few thousand years they would appear over much of Tamriel, no one knows how they make their weapons or tech.


if you read, I really think you wouldnt even ask these questions.

Explanation: The Dwemer created many, many weapons, armor pieces, and other things before they disappeared. That's why people are still able to use them years later.

Ah, the dilemma of the non-reader. Tell me what I want to know without telling me what I want to know so I don't have to read it.

The answer to your question is:

No.

They exist because they were already created before the Dwemer disappeared, and remain till this very day (TES era day... that is...). READ, please just read what everyone else has written, they answered all of your questions.

Besides, I'll further this topic and suggest a more deeper feeling to it:
I miss the Dwemer ruins :( They were the coolest, most artistic and most mysterious ruins I've ever seen in a game, I sincerely hope that the last dwarf is still alive, though the last time I've seen him he was in a pretty rough shape.
The Dwemer ruins scattered around Morrowind created this dark feeling of mystery and suggested you that there's this whole world for you to explore, god I'd love to have them back.

It's like finding items form the stone age, they are there, but the people who made them are gone.
Is this really that hard to grasp?

They are back(THE RUINS)....but being in Skyrim just doesnt make sense


Dwemer went to East Tamriel and erected after a time the nation of Resdayn yes? or rather thats what it was called after they allied with the Chimer against the Nords

by then the Nords had already roflstomped the Falmer and Skyrim region was their home.


Markarth is clearly a Dwemer city...but but! its in the West most reaches of Skyrim nowhere near the Velothi mountains or morrowind for that matter.

Why is it there, when the Dwemer were at war with the Nords? and its definently NOT the Roruken because they didn't even want to ally with the Chimer against the nords, so why would they build in enemy territory?

I agree to a point. How are all these weapons still around? Are they immune to wear and tear?

Because the Dwemer also resided in Hammerfell. In TESA: Redguard there's even one on Stros M'kai.

I think at one time or another, the Dwemer inhabited just about every area of Tamriel, as they had no real homeland.

yes thats the Roruken, After Resdayn and the Chimer alliance and the Nords you know...inhabiting Skyrim at this point

All the dwemer are by the time in TES V gone and long dead. If you have played Morrowind you would have come across THE LAST OF THE DWEMER during the main quest and since he was on Vvardenfell and somewhat "unable" to leave.. if he was still alive when the MoT crashed into the city of Vivec, he most probably DIDN'T survive the following lava that covered the island when Red Mountain erupted.

Like Velorien said and what has been previously mention, dwemer crafted items DON'T rust or degrade.. and those that are already "in circulation" among adventures and collectors can still be repaired by skilled smiths and mages.. unless they are to damaged.. but nobody can remake the way the dwemer crafted their inventions and tools.

Markarth's pretty close to Hammerfell. Maybe the borders back then weren't the same as the modern province borders and Nords didn't control that territory yet. They had to have gone through Skyrim to get to Hammerfall, so maybe some of the Rourken could've split with the rest and decided to settle down where they were instead of continuing their trip, thinking they were isolated enough in the mountains to not run into the Nords much.
