Imga : The Elder Scrolls Series Discussion

Can you think of many apes that live in snowy mountains?

The Himalayan Langur Monkey.

Not really an ape, granted, but close enough.

I also believe in sasquatches

Is think implanting imga in future TES games could be interesting.

As long as they keep it to lore.

Anyone that's making comments about Imga throwing feces doesn't know anything about Imga. The whole characterizing trait of the Imga is that they're self-loathing primates who attempt to act like people. They cut their hair and shave their bodies. They even where clothing. I'm not sure about their language, but I'd assume that they try to mimic civilized language as well. I think they'd be an interesting addition to the next game.

Clarification; they attempt to act like elves, even to the point of turning up their noses when Nedes are around.

And by the by, there was a (however small) schism in Imgan schools of thought. Marukh was proof of this.

EDIT:

And, Moonmover: There's a difference between Sasquatches and Yeti.

Hence the poothrowing comments.

I'm generally disinterested in monkey-type fantasy races, so I'll have to vote "no"

You mean hurl excrements at one's adversaries.

Exactly!

Crap (pun intended). Brian's not around, but he'd want me to post this:

"Jriklaab bore two sons, who were named Hryga and Jridson. As the Nedes encroached on Valen Imga kingdoms, the unification shattered, and the two sons subsequently fought for their reign as separate warlords, and this period was known as the Fecal Turbulence. It is called so because during this time the Imgan practice of throwing one's feces upon an enemy was quite widespread, often being used as a mechanism of shame more than of combat [though a rare suicidal sect would eat poisonous berries to taint their feces and thus aim for the eyes of their enemies.]" --Serminux Sv?

It's about time I started shooting off mod teasers again.

Aye, you beat me to it. Others still would taint their feces with the sharp, glassy excretions of the M?-M? plant. Still others would place the feces atop a staff and dance upon it. Thus was the term "holy [censored]" coined.

I hate to go all swedish on you again but "m?" (or rather m????) is how we describe how cows sounds.

...I just can't get those creatures out of my head, can I.

I'll ask again; can you think of many apes that live in snowy mountains?

The answer is no, not many at all. Besides, we already know Valenwood is their natural ecosystem so it's a moot point. Then again, if the Argonians can be there, I don't see why the Imga can't.

i agree but if it is set in skyrim their should only be a VERY small community say a group of explorers who want to explor the world or prehaps some slavers that are capturing them and you have to save them or just a singel igma

but if you are to play as one, other races should act mockingly towards you and higher raceis such as altmer and impereals should pity you and treat you as second class :spotted owl:

Knowing Brian, he already knows this.

Also, I agree with Albides, on both points.

Oh.

But then again, I don't know him :foodndrink:

Only if we get to throw poop at our enemies.

That would be most entertaining.

Person-"How goes it"?
*you throw poop*
Person- Guards! Guards, We have a psycho path on the loose

Yeah, I saw it in some cartoon once, but didn't know if it were Norwegian or Swedish or whatever...

What a party-pooper.

» Fri May 27, 2011 12:25 am

I disagree. All these jokes have got me pooped.

» Fri May 27, 2011 4:17 am

It's pretty obvious that it depends on which game it would be but yes it was abit low on letters on that one.
If the game would be in Valenwood or maybe Elsweyr then it's possible but I wouldn't play as them I belive.
