Nords vs Bosmer

Post » Mon Jun 11, 2012 5:04 pm

Meh.. I'm kind of neutral in this. I don't like Nords because of their stupidity, and barbarism, and Bosmer really creep me out with their whole cannibalism thing.

actually the nords are one of the most industrious and enterprising races in trade and exploration.

What is it with people when one is just playing a certain role, hence the name role playing games.

I rather have a forum full of RPG's (not the anti-tank tube - based on some comments here, I think some are better off with COD) then a forum full of questions, assumptions, guesses what will in or what will not be in the game (just be patient, only some time left).

As my Bosmer alter ego would say: "Talking like Elves? And dunmers ... Last time I was in Tamriel, Dunmer were Elves too, ugly yes but still (unfortunately) Elvish. Now that - my friend - is stupid" He sneaks away and you won't have noticed he has slipped a poisonous apple into your pocket. Vaguely you here some whispers "... bon appétit ..."

MY TWO FAVORITE RACES!!!!!

In my world, my dad was a Bosmer (so I'd get his skill) and my mother was a Nord (so I'd get her "image/body structure"). That's how the genetics work in Nirn. I call this race, "Norsmer."

We Nord arn't stupid, we are a smart folk! Just answer this smart question; Why did the Argonian cross the road?

You Nords are so entertaining, with your bizarre customs and such extreme masculinity it's almost homo------. In war, though, you would die. A bigger warrior just means a bigger target - I should know :wink: Oh, and no sword could slay the Bosmer's walking trees. They'd literally stomp out any resistance :tongue:

An axe should make short work of those trees.

No Nord has any right to say wrong about any Dunmer, after the butt kicking you and you're green friends were given at the battle of Red Mountain. However you're homeland is an adequate refugee for us at the moment, i'm heading up there soon as it happens :)

Wow you dudes are really into this whole game race-pride thing aren't you? A Bosmer has never done anything wrong to me, neither has any other race and if someone did I would hold it against the individual, not his whole race.

Or the Dunmer for that matter?
The Nords just don't like elves, period. Though the ones that they historically have had the most problems with are the Dunmer and Altmer. I honestly can't remember a single bit of lore that specifically names a conflict with the Bosmer, but I haven't kept up with the new lore that was introduced by the two new books.


The Bosmer "Wild Hunt" is what killed the last Nord King before they were plunged into a century long civil war. That civil war was the downfall of the Nord Empire (in the 1st Era), causing the Nords to lose their territories in Morrowind and High Rock.

So I heard that the Nords and the Bosmer (Wood Elves) are having some issues with each other can someone inform me on this? Because I thought that the Nords hated all types of Elves since they weren't truly human?

You were misinformed. Nords dont hate elves. They hate Thalmor, and only because thalmor give them good reason to.

us, Bosmer, Boiche or Tree-sap people , are not having troubles with all kind of races. We're the most pacifistic of all races ... although we find it kinda funny that some elves try to dress properly and call themselves "high" elves. Sure, they are a bit taller ... but so are ogres and no-one ever said ogres were smart

Perhaps this is why Khajiit kind defeated Bosmer kind so easily. J'rahzir will favor the tall hairy ones over the short annoying ones. :3

I think you have all been hitting the Skooma...

High Elves + Wood Elves = Aldmeri Dominion.

Dunmer residents of Skyrim are pretty much seeing themselves as Skyrim citizens, a position that some Nords support...which isn't a bad idea because when time comes to sort out old issues, better to have them on the human side, rather than the elven side. And seeing that a number of Dunmer are actually Empire veterans of the Great War, they do have a history of Empire allegiance.

Personally, I found Dunmer on both sides in the civil war, but no bosmer or altmer on either...that says something.
