My 101st (and final) painting in my Let's Paint: Oblivion series! It seemed only appropriate to spend my last stream for the game painting the Imperial City. Some closing thoughts and a timelapse under the cut:
This whole fucking post is a rollercoaster
You know how it is with Skyrim
He's been waiting for you, Nerevarine
[COMMISSIONS] - [PRINT]
I saw a lot of people in the fandom drawing pinups and that seemed fun :D ! Am I on time ? No. Is this Oblivion themed ? Neither- but it's the closest to the official Dagoth Ur design I've ever gotten and that must count for something jfjfkf
Process below vvv
I'm often really dedicated to the visual quality and authenticity of the memes I make, but like idk if I could ever make another human being care about that. I used the proper font and color picked the correct color and sized everything correctly and used the alignment tool to get the spacing right and redrew the nebula background and spent way too long messing with the drop shadow settings to mimic the original text. Skyrim media literacy 0 skill meme. If you care.
the way morrowind locks you out of things for being a vampire does have to be taken in the context of how hard they were trying to avoid the extremely obvious complications of what would happen if they did what daggerfall did with every single one of your factions
morrowind is handling its vampires with tongs and a face shield because daggerfall was barehanded swinging them around by the leg into furniture
Since you have technically "died" in the process of becoming a vampire, your legal reputation in all regions is reset. You are now a new, previously unknown individual in the eyes of the law. In addition, all guild memberships are revoked. For most guilds, you can simply rejoin and receive a promotion to your previous rank after 28 days have passed. However, the Thieves Guild and the Dark Brotherhood present their own complications. Because you are only offered membership in these guilds once, acquiring vampirism after being admitted means you cannot rejoin them again as a vampire.
Being cured of vampirism restores the old affiliations of the character, including prior memberships and rank in all guilds. If membership in the Thieves Guild or Dark Brotherhood was lost in the transition to vampire, it will be regained. If however the character joined the Thieves Guild or Dark Brotherhood as a vampire, membership will be lost when giving up vampirism. After curing vampirism, it is possible to contract the disease again. Becoming a vampire again will restore the affiliations from when the character had last been a vampire. In effect, there are two different versions of the character, mortal and vampire, which can be toggled back and forth.
Holy mother of event flags. Yeah, I imagine that might make your faction quest lines complicated!

Answer:
Meridia from The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Portrayed by: Jean Gilpin
Another thing I like about the elder scrolls is that they let elves get old and crusty it’s beautiful
Most fantasy: age? I am one thousand years old. I know I may look about twenty to you but elves can tell
The elder scrolls: ow my back what were you asking? Age? I’m almost three hundred years old. What do you mean I look it? Come here, I’ll show you what for!
Man I know that elder scrolls is a stupid series and all that but I really think they did concepts like orcs and dark elves mostly correct. More correct than a lot of franchises I’ve seen anyways.
I think dnd took until like this year to properly update drow and orcs or something? Like fantasy as a whole has a hard time shaking off this idea of evil races.
The elder scrolls approach to these guys from the beginning though has been that their cultures are just really different from the other cultures around them.
Like you can hang out in orc strongholds in Skyrim and spend the whole game around dark elves in Morrowind and they’re just regular people that have kind of extreme cultural norms. Dark elves are kind of rude to you when they first meet you but like in the way certain cultures are rude to outsiders at first until they get to know them. Orcs are rough around the edges but they’re smart and have a proud culture and if you can hold your own in a fight they’ll respect you.
And you see these people can blend pretty well into other societies. They join faiths their ancestors didn’t practice, they have jobs that people of their race wouldn’t stereotypically have, they have opinions about what other people assume about them, they have their own wrong assumptions about other cultures.
There’s this understanding somewhere in these games that people are shaped by their cultures but you also can’t predict how an individual will behave based on the culture that they came from. And I like that.
“[Orcs] are just regular people with extreme cultural norms” yeah like. Women being property. And hating every other race. Like their entire religion and culture is based around those two ideas.
Come to think of it, I believe Orsimer are the only race in Tamriel where the sexes are not inherently equal.
so yeah, no, they’re just evil actually.
Every race in this series broadly hates every other race and there’s several examples in the games of individual orcs rejecting that system. Also not all orcs belong to the stronghold system. Some of them are city dwelling orcs in Orsinium and some have integrated into other societies. They’re also not the only sexist society in the series. Some of the pirates in oblivion can be heard saying that women are bad luck and the ashlanders in Morrowind tend to have very strict gender roles while the more mainstream dark elf society does not. There’s also the saints and seducers from the shivering isles dlc who have a matriarchal society with pretty extreme sexism in the opposite direction.
Their entire society also isn’t based around just that? The worship of Malacath and what that means exactly takes on a lot of different forms in the games.
also if i recall correctly in the older games [especially Oblivion] there are tons of subtle details about how Orc women are usually the heads of households and seen as smarter/more mature/more responsible than Orc men, down to like... what the hairstyles in the damn character creator are named
i respect those people who have sideblogs for all their different interests, if you follow me, you’ll just have to accept you’ll be submitted to whatever nonsense i’m into at the moment
Bethesda RPGs and games like them are hilarious to me because they take place in worlds where the average person's conflict resolution skills begin and end with "murder."
There's no talking things out, no levels of escalation, no asking for apologies, no nothing. If someone tries to talk to you, but they were looking at a small trinket on your desk worth half a penny, so they accidentally Stole That instead, the only solution to this problem is to immediately try and beat them to death with your own two hands.
Hell the entire town will join in on it too. they all care SO much about that vase or plate or sprig of nirnroot or whatever.
it's even better in oblivion where even HOLDING something that doesn't belong to you for a second counts as theft, denizens of the imperial city are notorious for how much they hate strangers fingerprints on their things. the knives and forks in bars and taverns are just for show, if you try to eat with them they'll call the royal guard to cut your hands off while half the patrons ineffectually bash their mitts against your full plate armour.
Trying to sleep in someone else's bed in the vvardenfell province of morrowind is punishable by vigilante execution, it's probably why divorce rates are so high there also.
i can't stop watching this
when someone tags a post of mine like ‘not yugioh’ ik it isn’t a criticism but it always makes me think like. damn maybe it should’ve been yugioh
