I dont personally ship Dagon and Mankar, but i do find the idea absolutely hilarious I mean, hes eventually going to have to formally introduce Mankar to his family, and i think that would look something like this

That shit is going to cause more family drama than the entirety of what battlespire had to offer bro 😭

Concept art for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

'Nymic Seals are tokens, just as useless to mortals as gold coins are to Daedra. But to us they are everything: each seal is a possible piece of the true names of a Daedra, so they are both valuable and useless in equal measure.'

-- Thralsi, describing the triangular shaped tokens forged from Daedric metal with a green soul gem at its core.

Battle for Bruma ⚔️✨

I always imaged Lex being at The Battle for Bruma because well. He IS a guard captain, even though he’s in Anvil now. And I assume with that big FAT claymore in his back that he’s a talented warrior. Why not, right?

This is me revisiting an old piece I made back in 2020. If you wanna see it you can check that out here in my “the archives” posts! In “The Archives” tag on my blog I post all of my old art I find, so it’s neat to look through!

Evander is here too, just not in the shot. He may or may not help out by putting an arrow in that Xivilai’s butt! Who knows 👀

Hope ya like it, I have a speedpaint of half of my process up on my TT account! (But tbh I miiight just post it here too!) 💖🫶

I was looking at @\salad-sauce’s art (thank you for making such good battlespire stuff!) and got inspired to draw my redesigns for Dagon’s failkids

hands are kinda bad this time but whatever. imago looks short but he’s 7’2” lol, the twins (faydra and moath) are just 7’8” and they will make fun of him for being the shortest. it definitely doesn’t bother him though what.

their weapons have names! imago has the sword of the moon reiver (I headcanon it’s his and he just lets people borrow it), moath’s halberd is called glacier’s edge, and faydra’s scimitars are called cataclysm and paroxysm

version w/ my oc + individual shots below

serafina my beautiful princess <3 she lives in my head rent free. her staff is called rejuvenation. she’s definitely the odd one out, almost like she doesn’t belong here…

You know what Skyrim really lacks?

Summons and variety

In Conjuration they are pitiful amount of Daedra summon there is in total

Flame Atronach

Frost Atronach

Storm Atronach

Dremora lord

And that's it, a truly pitiful amount and now let's compare to oblivion

Scamp

Flame Atronach

Frost Atronach

Storm Atronach

Dremora

Dremora lord

Clanfear

Daedroth

Spider daedra

Xivilai

You SEE THE ISSUE?

there is such a lack of the variety and choice

But let's give Skyrim it's best chance and add dlcs and creation club

And in that case the list goes

Skyrim

Flame Atronach

Frost Atronach

Storm Atronach

Dremora lord

Seeker

Dremora merchant

Dremora butler

Golden saint warrior/archer

Dark seducer warrior/archer

Staada

Daedric horse

Oblivion

Scamp

Flame Atronach

Frost Atronach

Storm Atronach

Clanfear

Dremora lord

Dremora

Spider daedra

Daedroth

Xivilai

Hungers

Flesh Atronach ( Which while also very necromantic has a Daedra in so it counts)

Golden saint

Dark seducer

Even with DLC and the creation club it's such a big downgrade, while I love being able to summon two things in Skyrim I wish the options to pick from to make full use of it.

Also I didn't mention any necromancy here because both games did it pretty well, Skyrim with actually being able to revive bodies early on and oblivion with its vast options of skeletons,zombies, ghosts and even lichs, Skyrim even adds 19 new necromantic summons (including a fucking bone Colossus, ESO sweep) with DLC and creation club and a bonewolf pet and a skeleton forge, but to be fair if I'm.count the bonewolf then I should count the manic and Demented elytra Nymphs ( wait are elytra Daedra?)

Either way my point is that simplification of the magic system in Skyrim has caused lack of depth in more ways than just mysticism being taken outback and being shot and spell-crafting with it.

So yeah more Daedra please todd
