I feel awful for not having played Morrowind yet. Sadly, I have neither the money to upgrade my PC to run it, or the PC to run it.

I still have my Xbox copy. You can borrow it if your mom lets you ride the school bus home with me, tomorrow.

As Flannigus mentioned, it's Dagoth Ur, forced into the dirt by the mass-altering abilities of the Tools.

Oh, my bad. Dagoth Ur really got grounded on this one,hehe funny. No wonder why he was wearing a golden mask now.

That doesn't sound so great.

Sumerian Gundam is now a band that covers the soundtracks to TES games.

You've never been to a birthday party, have you?

Back porch: now.

Truthfully, I also owe Morrowind a great deal. I'm not sure the Elk realizes just how much of an effect, through inspiring a love of literature, 'Other-ness', and communicating the ideas that have been communicated, this work has had on people's lives the last 10 years.

Happy Birthday Morrowind, and a sincere thank you.

Called it.

Phew, I wasn't wrong too :smile:

I dub thee: The Transverberation of Nerevar. In which Mercy washes the feet of her Lord... in blood.

...Happy birthday, my love. I found it all. ALL.

You skipped all the cliffracers.

We don'ttalk about... those... here.

Vehk had hair, now he's bald.

Voryn Dagoth was bald, now he has a flowing mane.

The truth, I think, is self-evident.

Vivec is Voryn Dagoth, Dagoth Ur is Vehk. The plot of Morrowind was actually Voryn avenging Nerevar by guiding the Nerevarine to depower the heart and bring justice to his murderer. Almalexia and Sotha Sil discovered the switch, and he drove the former insane and killed the other to protect his secret.

...I'll go now.

Suddenly everything makes sense.

I enjoyed all the walking. Now I know why.

Not gonna lie, the other recent thread left me with more 'meh' than I could possibly put into words, but this, this is pure unbridled sixiness to the core.

Also, this explains why official Temple artwork of Nerevar always depict him without legs and with his face covered by a mask.

^Good spot, that. That connection hadn't occurred to me.

» Fri May 04, 2012 6:02 am

I vaguely knew that would come in handy one day.

I always imagined Nerevar would've been more heavily armoured, in full glass or daedric or whatever that golden material Ordinator armour is made of.

Indeed.

The more I look at the drawing, the more little details i notice:

-As others said, Vehk has hair on this, egg form maybe?

-Nerevar's belt buckle kind of look like the Yin Yang symbol.

-Seht does look more alien than the others, and curiously, he's the only one not looking at Nerevar while the other Triunes almost seem to enjoy it, perhaps he is just pondering on another mystery.

-If that's Wraithguard, does someone see the other tools somewhere? That dagger sure doesn't look like Keening

-Seht wearing Psijic robes maybe?
