The Derpy Bosmer. : V

» Fri Sep 30, 2011 10:39 pm

One thing that has me worried is that Bosmer will no longer have a derpy mascot like Gaenor or The Adoring Fan in Skyrim. With the new redesign, they look far too serious for them to be the goofy derp race of Tamriel. Some disliked the goofy Bosmer in Oblivion, but I thought they were good comic relief (especially the Adoring Fan).

Do any of you think the derpy Bosmer should/might return in Skyrim, or will they be taken seriously in this game?

Only if the Bosmer have hooves. :3

when did the term 'derpy' become popular?

I think you mean Altmer :hubbahubba:

Yeah, I thought the Adoring Fan was Altmer?

It didn't?

I used it because I didn't want to overuse goofy. :banana:

I mean the Altmer are stupid. Adoring Fan was a Bosmer.

By the way, Fyrisi, your avatar is awesome. Haha.

So just because you find the race as comic relief, that all others who want to take the race seriously have to suffer?

Yeah, no. How about some "derpy" people of ALL races? Why do we have to pick on the Bosmer? I'm looking forward to see some drunk, "derpy" Nords myself. :3

I stand corrected. My first character was a Bosmer. I hope they return in derpy fashion.

The very first preset looked somewhat "derpy". There should at least be one of them in the game.

Bosmer should be especially derpy, it's like an ancient Bosmer tradition! They're the Ewoks of Tamriel!

The bosmer in Skyrim looks pretty serious compared to TES 3/4. I imagine there will still be a herp a' derp npc that comes out with a ching-chong-potato quest.

I don't want derpy Bosmer. I want cannibal, Green Pact, crazy killing Bosmer who make everyone else in the room with them uncomfortable (and not in the same way the Adoring Fan did).

I guess all the lore books in the games about Bosmer should just have a little asterisk at the end of each one - *None of this information will ever apply to any Bosmer you will actually meet. All the Bosmer you meet outside of Valenwood are apparently the genetic inbred rejects of Bosmer society according to the way Bethesda uses Bosmer NPCs in the games.

Thank god you're not working at Bethesda.

And Bosmer lore > All. Read it. It's not even close to this "derpy" that you speak of.

people on elder scrolls forums are saying derp derp. Bleh. I hate the internet

What do you even know about anything, you're a bear!

I've read plenty of lore, so get the stick out of your... nevermind.

you tell me http://farm7.static.flickr.com/6079/6074112484_f35723117a_o.jpg one can hope they act as serious as they look

Bosmers looks like raiders in fallout for me, maybe it is just the Mohawk. I hate raiders. I think I will kill every single Bosmer with a Mohawk.

I thought all the elves were derpy in Oblivion. All the races looked pretty derpy, to be honest. But the elven voices made it even worse, the way they spoke... Really annoying. I'm glad that things have changed for Skyrim, and the races have had a major overhaul. Bosmer now look like the scary cannibals they should look like.

Seriously, who looks at the Adoring Fan and thinks, "This guy eats other people" or could eat other people?

A friendly one, to be exact.

It'd be hilarious if Bethesda made your favorite race the derpy race

But I'm sure they'll bring back stupid Bosmer in spite of this. Ah well.

I think the bosmer look pretty schweet actually, much better than any other game
