Where do you guys think the Dwemer disappeared to? For being so advanced the Dwemer seemed to vanish rather quickly. :confused:

Stuck on the Numidium as its golden skin; a whole race absorbicided into one being, with the strange exception of just 1 dwemer being. Also, someone forgot to flip the switch from off to on, which is why it didn't work initially.

this might stupid but does anyone know what the actual people looked like

yeah, ever see one of their ghosts? It's like a slightly shorter altmer with a huge beard.

oh yeah that's right Ive spent very little time on morrowind I just bought it recently. It's a lot more difficult than oblivion but anyways thanks

http://www.imperial-library.info/gallery/mw_TAoM_p44.jpg's what they look like, without the polygons.

Reminds me of The End of Evangelion - Actually I am currently playing through the Tribunal main quest and when I was in Bamz-Amschend, I noticed all the piles of ash. Seemingly, the entire Dwemer race spontaneously combusted when Kagrenac worked on the Heart of Lorkhan.

I was under the impression the Dwemer broke the Dragon when they became Numidium, so could it be that every possible outcome is true? They're the skin of the brass god, blasted into nothingness, blasted into ghosts, alive and well (which is why Yagrum's around) and simultaneously floating through Aetherius?

People keep talking about how the Dwemer did this or they did that... why can't it be everything at once?

The unfortunate mistake is believing these things are mutually exclusive. The ghosts are anomolies from their sudden and violent departure; which is to say, their souls became the skin, the ghosts are simply ectoplasm. Their bodies rapidly decayed, when you opened the door of the chamber; or, their bodies incinerated as the souls were taken, and the ashlands is a giant cremation urn. Yagrum said he wasn't on this plane, at the time. Floating through Aetherius? Vivec would have felt them, as Aetherius is within Time, which raises the question why he didn't feel the presence of Yagrum. Surly he'd heard of him.

Which makes the last living dwemer extremely special; he is a giant corprus filled enigma!

I'd like to kow what the ruins looked like before they went. Where they giant metropolitan cities? Where they small forts? Where they gold? Where they red? Where they blue?
(age and lava does things to cities)

A lot of questions about something so simple. I'd like to know how they where with magic, also.

The reason there's rarely a technological advantage in RPG's like this, is because magic makes technology obsolete. The Dwemer must have had some kind of magical disadvantage to have to resort to thier inventions. Why spend years developing and creating artificial life, when you can simply summon an atronaut? Why use lava in thier experiments (look in the ruins), when you can just use fire magic to heat things up?

The dwarves are here, and now they are not.

M'Aiq can solve any lore mystery.

Can't trust those atronarchs, You build a robot, you know it will carry out its programming. Summon a daedra, who knows what they'll try to pull.

Dwemer: "There is no mystery. M'Aiq knows all. The dwarves were here, and now they are not! They were very short folks... Or perhaps they were not. It all depends on your perspective. I'm sure they thought they were about the right height."

The Dwemer could'nt have any kind of magical disadvantage because all of their inventions worked BECAUSE of magic. How could the Dwemer have a flaw in their magika if they were able to understand and use Lorkan's Heart (which I'm preety sure that it was no easy thing to handle or understand). And the Dwemer didn't summon Daedra because they didn't worship or believe in them. Also, the reason they didn't use magicly based fire was because they also (for some reason) used steam to power their golems.This would require a constant source of steam (the Lava). If the Dwemer used magika to create fire to (in turn) create steam, half the population of Dwemer would be drained of magika in about half an hour. And thats not a very long time in Morrowind XD

I reckon we will learn what happened to the dwemer in the next TES game.

Why? Well, Vvanderfell has been destroyed and the dark elves are weak. This all sets up the basis for a dark elf comeback in the next game. They will try to do what their ancestors (dwemer) did and thus we will learn what happened.

The Dwemer are not their ancestors.

The Dunmer used to be the Chimer and have no relation to the Dwemer.

Plus, I already said what happened to the dwemer. Anything more, and it becomes overkill. Also, the altmer are still pissed about the Numidium, they're still fighting it!

Honestly, the actual game (mind you I said game, not the speech between 2 NPCs) pretty much set up TESV for the "Fall of the Empire" due to having no emperor. In actual medieval times, if the figure head and all descendents of so died, almost every province in its control would revolt. I mean, this is a different situation being that Ocato will name a new emporer... But people will be angry

In morrowind, there was alright a plot against the current Emporer for being weak. Unlike Tiber Septim.
Now, imagine all the blades who serve the "Dragon-Born"
How will they feel when they are lorded around by some random person not related to the actual septims? and I know that many provinces resent the entire control the empire has. I see revolt even more.

The http://www.imperial-library.info/content/history-dwemer is a fun place to search on this.

Can anybody find me the link on the actual page that explained the Dwemer's transformation into the skin of the Numidium?

I believe it was word of goded here.

I think it was Skeleton Man's Interview. Google

Alright. I'll take a look. Thank you both of you.

It was actually the "http://www.imperial-library.info/fsg/luagararticle1.shtml" FSG article. The info is speckled throughout Morrowind and various books, but that article brought it together and explained everything.
