Snow Elves

I hope so, but only a few. Maybe one cave with the last of the Falmer living there. I wouldn't want alot of them though, the whole boogey man thing would be ruined if they were a common enemy. Besides there's been no (credible) reports of Falmer in quite a while, they're almost certainly extinct or they became Rieklings.

Even so it has been 200 years, plenty of time for a resurgence or a total extinction.

Here's hoping for their inclusion in the game. Would be good for the stuff of myth to return to life once again in the game :P

Snow Elves
Nords attribute almost any misfortune or disaster to the machinations of the Falmer, or Snow Elves, be it crop failure, missing sheep, or a traveler lost crossing a high pass. These mythical beings are popularly believed to be the descendants of the original Elven population, and are said to reside in the remote mountain fastnesses that cover most of Skyrim. However, there is no tangible evidence that this Elven community survives outside the imaginations of superstitious villagers."
"Uncle, I saw signs that might be Falmer boundary-runes, but nothing sure.
If any survive, they are wary and withdrawn. "


This was from the Pocket Guide to the Empire, 1st Edition/Skyrim
A paper bound booklet included with the game Redguard.

:celebration:

So there is a chance they exist. In numbers.

Rieklings sounds good...

Rumors says that Snow elves "evolved" into Rieklings.

The Falmer > Riekling is a theory. One I'm not all too convinced by.

Personally I want to find out more about the Falmer in Skyrim. I want to come across old ruins, rare locations, with some Falmer evidence in them. Ancient lore adventures would keep me going for a while.

That could be fun.

I absolutely WANT them in!! It was actually the first thing I thought of when I heard that Skyrim was the location for the next game. As if my name didn't already give that one away.

I thought they died out? maybe two or three lingering members of a dying race, more of an easter egg than a race I hope


They could add something in later on as part of new DLC.

I would like to see them return as an entire civilization buried deep underground in the mountains. Maybe some remote mountain peak has a terrible reputation for killing anyone who ventures there. That peak being the only entry point to a vast underground network, where the falmer still reside. If not... I will probably be modding this into the game either way :)
