Description
*POSSIBLE DRAGONBORN DLC SPOILERS FOR THOSE WHO HAVEN'T PLAYED IT YET* — because the last time I put something up I revealed a spoiler for someone.I think Archer feels awkward about being an Argonian on an island whose residents' ancestors were driven out from their ancestral homeland by his kind. I sure hope these Dunmer are friendly.
I kinda liked the style of short comics I did when I first started doing my comic series, so I decided to bring it back!

well Red Mountain has been constantly erupting for centuries, the Septims pulled out of Morrowind cos they needed every soldier available during the Oblivion Crisis

Still Morrowind was part of the Empire, and what did the Empire do? The first moment of trouble they turned their backs just because Morrowind was not mainly Imperials. Still it's not a big suprise they never helped anyone else either.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
technically they did when it was under Septim rule, they only pulled out of Morrowind because Cyrodiil was the main target for Mehrunes Dagon and if it fell Tamriel would be fucked
it's the Medes who are cowards kissing the Thalmors boots offering everyone elses lives to save their own

Lets just say if it wasn't for the Thalmor I would have taken Tullius's head off gladly and but his entire lagion to the sword. I have no love for the Legion or the Empire and little for Tiber Septim or Talos or whatever he called himself.
I'm for Elsweyr and Black Marsh, the Empire can crumble for all I care after the Aldmeri have been dealth with, but since Bethesderp said no more DLC, we will have to wait another number of years to find out what happened, also I shall be hoping the next game will get a GOTY edition, Skyrim does not appear to be getting one.

i see
i'm for the Empire if it's fair to everyone like it was whilst under Septim rule
i only joined the Stormcloaks because of how lenient the Medes are toward the Thalmor

Ah yes fair...fair as in allowing the enslavement for he beast folk and the torture of Argonians in layawiin dungeons for absolutely no reason whatsoever. Yes Fair if you are white bred Nibenean, or a boot liking milk drinker.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
that was the Countess of Leyawiin's personal bigotry, can't blame the Septims for that
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Could of done something about it instead of letting it continue.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
well the Emperor was busy being dead and his heir was either in Kvatch worrying about being burnt to death or in the Blades headquarters with no knowledge of what was going on outside the war
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That was happening well before the Oblivion Crisis, yet sill not even the Elder Council did jack, I doubt they cared, after all they were just filthy lizards after all.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
do you think an Imperial would get a fair existence in Black Marsh? or are the Argonians allowed to be racist to others?
all races are bigoted to others
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
At least in Skyrim, Khajiit and Argonians are fairly open minded, however in Windhelm....mybe its a bit understandable.
However like all the races (Though most Imperials are open minded, nit all but most) are protective of their borders, though Khajiit don't seem quiet as much of bigots, though apparently they don't like Argonians much...not sure if that is still so in Skyrim.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
If it is it's not very apparent.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Oh... wow, that sucks. Didn't know that.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah, very few races actually want to be part of the Empire during Skyrim's timeline
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Dunmer were always one of most Empire-hating and xenophobic provinces where no outlander is welcome so everything is the same here tbh... well, all provinces but Cyrodiil and its Nordic fanboys constantly hate it XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah, everyone claims that the Nords are xenophobic and hatefilled but they have nothing on the Dunmer XD
it's how i justify joining the Stormcloaks
Empire fanboy: the Nords are just racist for wanting their own culture!
me: take one look at the Dunmer then say that again
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Or the Argonians and Altmer XD
Speaking about their cultural preservation, I always get a chuckle whenever they praise Talos... seeing as only 200 years ago they bullied their missionaries XD It is ironic that traditional Nords proved to be more loyal than converted ones XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
indeed
all human races revere Talos, the Nords only revere him more since he was a Nord
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Actually, Redguards revere the yokudan pantheon... and likely are not that impressed by him as they actually beat him up.
Hard to know about Bretons: in TES2 there were only temples to the Eight Divines but back than Bethesda didn't decide to make Talos the Ninth Divine.
200 years ago, Nords did not revere Talos as a god but as a hero, a thing that annoyed the Imperials a lot in MW and OB (in SR, only some like Froki, who lives in isolation, seems to still worship the old pantheon). It is safe to say that it was the Fourth Empire that converted the Nords to Talos worship and seemingly erased any temples to Shor, Tsun, Alduin and the other non-Imperial gods.
Ah the irony ^_^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
200 years ago Talos was the head divine that all man races revered, plus many Redguards worship Talos, Baurus from Oblivion being one of them
it's Redguards that stick to their absolute roots that revere Yokudan

Foreigners are not much of a good example. For example, no Dunmer in Cyrodiil worships Tribunal/Reclamations, but 99% of Dunmer in Morrowind do.
And as said, both TES3 and TES4 made it clear that Nords are pagans and not part of the Imperial Cult. Talos being patron of humanity due to replacing Lorkhan does not make him automatically revered by all the humans... only by those who accepted him as such.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
that's what i meant, he is revered by all human races, not the entirety of the races but by some of each
hell, some non-human races probably revere him as a hero
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
The whole history of Tamriel is about one race bashing another. So Archer should just be like
(probably not the best attitude cause dunmer are though mofos)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Considering he's on a small island full of them, maybe he'd better just lay low if things go bad.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
im an Argonian to lol i thought the exact same thing x'D
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I was presently surprised by the Dumner in raven rock because i expected them to be very suspicious of me but they were very nice especially after i opened back up the mine.

I haven't really done much on the DLC just yet, so I have no idea what you're talking about, but I'll probably get to it at one point.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The Dunmer have trouble with a lot of people it seems.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
For all they've been subjected to, though, they're a pretty friendly people. None seem to care about an Argonian walking around their villages, at least.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Well, I think they'd only hate the Argonians from that Thalmor-like An-Xileel, not the entire race.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Well, this looks like it's gonna be a pretty quick DLC.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Unless they're friendly, then this shall be the shortest DLC yet.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
*whistle* talk about awkward...
Archer listening to your wife would be really wise round about now...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That, children, is why you read your books. Because then you end up on an island full of people potentially hostile to your kind.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank Talos I play an elf then... though in that case I end up in a country of people who are hostile to me... yep can't win.

Gotta love the comedy potential of the various racial tensions in Tamriel.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, it's a lot of fun!

Archer might want to invest in a full helmet. Maybe tuck his tail in.
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Wow this is pretty rough for Archer. It's a good thing Dunmers don't Redguards (I don't think) and Justin is also the son of Mephala, or he'd be in deep trouble.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I don't know about the tail, but Archer can definitely change the shape of his skull to fit a helmet made for humans!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
He should also put on a collared shirt, just to be safe- [link]
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
They will never suspect a thing.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
I will laugh if those people actually react like that in the DLC.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Not really, they're indifferent to your race, as far as I've seen. Even when the Dunmer who greets you when you first make landfall in Raven Rock tells you about how the Argonians sacked the Capital of Morrowind, when you yourself are an Argonian.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Better yet, we still own Morrowind!
