Greetings, fellow Elder Scrolls enthusiasts! Today I decided to create this post to answer some questions that I, while writing stories set in the world of Tamriel, have been unable to find and answer to. These questions might seem insignificant to some, but to me they are important.
With no specific order I will numerically list my questions below, and if you have an answer you simple write it with the same number as the question you wanted to answer. An example:
2: Why do pigs fly? # The Question I wrote in this post
2: Because of Sheogorath # The Answer you wrote in your post
With the format explained, let us jump right into it.
- What skin colour would High Elves, Altmer, adapt when affected by Vampirism? Would they retain some of the golden tint, would they turn ashen, like Dark Elves, or would they become pale?
- Could Vampires ever have children? A odd question, yes, but a question I have not been able to answer fully. Although I expect a "No" here.
- Does poverty exist on Summerset?
- Are there Dark Brotherhood sancuaries in every province?
- What kind of goverment does the different provinces employ? As in, are the duchies in Hammerfell and are there barons in Black Marsh?
- In what provinces do they ever see snow?
- How many children would Altmer usually have? This questions could go asked for any race, really.
- Are there fair-looking Orc females?
- Do the population of Tamriel have any holidays? Much like we celebrate Christmas, the Christian world, would, let us say, Dunmer have something close to that?
- How would a half Orc, half Altmer look?
- Is slavery still accepted in some provinces? I was specifically turning that question towards the Altmer originally.
- Is poetry, and literature in general, valued anywhere?
- Is poetry written mainly in the common tounge? Or is it written in Elven?
- What would you call the different languages of the world?
- Would the language the Ayleids spoke, and wrote, be Tamriel's version of Latin?
- How long do the different races live?
- Are Elves less fertile than other races?
- Are Orcs less fertile than other races?
- How strongly does the common people care about religion? Important to seperate the different race's population.
- Does the Black Hand really own the world?
- Sithis is the one, true God.
- How to you kill a Vampire in the Elder Scrolls universe?
- How many are "Children of Coldharbour"?
- What is the net-worth of the Dark Brotherhood?
I am sure I could add on many more questions, but I want to dedicate this thread to the discussion of the less discussed questions. So that these questions may be finally answered, so that I can relish in the glory that is Elder Scrolls lore, no matter how insignificant it may seem, because I am sure it is significant when attempting to depict the world of Tamriel from the eyes of someone living in it.
Thank you for reading through my sorry excuse of a forum post.
