I was thinking about the wood elfs new look they look more bad ass and I am thinking that maybe they would have a option to eat their dead enemies of other races. i can think of two ways they could do this you could have it as a ability that you activate in the menus and when you click on a body it will ask you if you want to eat it or search it? this would provide bonuses and maybe depending on what race you eat you get different bonuses like an dunmer you get a destruction bonus or something. The other way i think they could do is when you search a body you get an extra item that's the races meat like dunmer meat or argonian meat. you could cook this meat to increase the bonuses what do you think?

...gross

As good as an idea of it is, it's really grotesque for ES. Maybe for Fallout, a nasty game of it's own, but not this.

(Bosmer walks in to the bar with a sack) Mystery meat anyone? :liplick:

but its in the lore they do eat others it doesnt have to be super savage like in fallout it could be just like cooking and eating other meat

A bit heavy going for TES. Mod it in!

There were several instances of Argonian hearts in Oblivion. Just grab some of those and cook 'em up.

ill have some :foodndrink:

but seriously what good is the over abundance of lore if we cant actually experience it in game?

What do you think "dispose of corpse" meant in MW?
It's canon that the bosmeri cannibalize their opponents.

it should be a racial power, eat dead people to get health back

I dont think the imagery of this is any more disturbing that that found in the oblivion world. A welcome tonal shift I say.


BRING ON THE MAN-WICH!

Not heavy going at all. It's in the lore. Because of some pact they made with nature, they eat their fallen enemies.

The Green Pact only affects plant matter grown in Valenwood, so Wood Elves don't need to resort to cannibalism when in other provinces.

no thanks... who called hannibal lecter to town?

The Green Pact. It's not just ecological, but a religious edict as well.

Anyways, if Bosmer were to absorb racial bonuses from consumption of fallen enimies, it would make them quite popular to roleplay, and that is not the case.

They mostly cannibalize their own dead for religious reasons, but in past eras they did indeed snack on their felled enemies. Somewhere in the lore there's reference to one mentioning that Khajiit meat tastes sweet due to the sheer volume of moon sugar they consume.

This isn't something I see happening in the game, but maybe someone will make a mod of it.

I like it .

the wood elf from the game are from skyrim not valenwood.

Like the Undead Racial in WoW.

wat...

some of them might be second/third/X generation immigrates others are fresh off the boat. they all originate from Valenwood, lore withstanding

ummmm...... uh...... duh?

A cannibal is something that eats members of its own species. That being said, is it cannon for bosmers to be cannibals or to eat other enemies as well?

they eat everything! it is a big part of there lore and am still dissapointed that it wasnt referanced in oblivion. no for looting meat from npc. but a BIG yes to embracing the idea.i happen to like everything about bosmer but there hight.

Yes. Search for the "Green Pact". The bosmer aren't your average jolly ditzy race of happy go-lucky elves.

I just realized why adoring fan looked at me with those eyes...
Anyway it should be bosmer racial power to consume fallen enemies (or allies)

You are what you eat.. :foodndrink:
