The thalmor. : V

» Fri Jun 01, 2012 9:05 pm

This thread is here to talk about our opinions on the thalmor. If you like to participate. I personally think they are a bunch of buttholes that get very "butthurt" About some human being a god that they have to force an empire to ban the worship of the very person that founded the empire. What do you think?

they are omnicidle maniacs who want to destory everything so they can rise to atherius to meet some diety that never actually cared for them.

I think they're a good addition to TES and most people on the forum seem to be more but-hurt over the Thalmor than the Thalmor are over Talos.

In b4 omg nazis!!!11!!leven1!!

An opinion largely based on a faux non-canon MK lore, the Thalmor never mention they're out to destroy the world nor does it seem to be the official party line.

Interesting. Writing it in my notebook containing insults to video game characters because I don't have a social life.....

I think all we need is to hire the Dark Brotherhood and do some assassinating.

Good idea mate!

Indeed! You can't expect the Thalmor to kill all those pesky Talos worshipers themselves :foodndrink:

I don't care who they are or what they do, unless it impedes what I'm trying to do.

Then they die.

The are genocidal antagonist and they are very interesting and great from a lore perspective.
It would be unwise to continue the civil war in Skyrim and to have a divided empire when they are trying to destrpy the Mundas.
It would be unwise of the empire to not to try and enlist the aid of the Psijic Order to match the Summersets elder wizards power.
They will probably need something that equels the power of the Numidium to defeat the Aldmeri Dominion.

Who needs the Dark Brotherhood? I kill every Thalmor I see myself, much more satisfying that way! :biggrin:

Off topic but when ever I see Thalmor escorting a prisoner. I always think they will do inappropriate things to him..

Listen, they only want to make Tamriel a better place. The Thalmor want to rid the world of false of Pagan gods and lesser races. Once the Thalmor's goal of creating a united master race is completed the world will function as a utopia.

See what they did there?!

The only good Thalmor is a dead one.

» Sat Jun 02, 2012 7:42 am

The general consensus here is that they're arrogant elitists, and most of us don't have any qualms over gutting each and every one of them

At least I don't.

The Thalmor are the villains you love to hate.

-Superiority complex
-Racism
-Religious Oppression
-Genocide

But I have a feeling that they will be around for a while, and when they DO meet their end, it wont be a just end. I think a LOT of innocents will die in the process (Think Eruption of Red Mountain)

» Sat Jun 02, 2012 7:23 am

Here's to hoping the devs flesh out the Thalmor a bit more than "Villains I love to hate" / "Villains you Have to Hate or else you've got the sentiments of a jerk-ass". If they do it right, maybe they'll be the elven version of the Septim Empire, and men would have to begrudgingly bow down to Altmer rule. Who knows?

Wait what? Those are all heroic qualities... well if you got your fantasy start from Warhammer any ways... the only just end the Thalmor could meet in my books is victory.

Interestingly, Oblivion's Knights of the Nine DLC. Pelinal Whitestrake, the original divine crusader. He was all those qualities, along with some Terminator stuck in a while-loop where x = kill.

Arent the Thalmor 0 for 3 militarily.They have been kicked out of Black Marsh,Hammerfell,and even the Empire got around to beating them on the battle field.

Note to the rest of the provinces let them get to Skyrim this will be over in a week

I know I am not the only one thinking what I'm thinking of

They are more like 0-2-1
Zero wins, two losses (Hammerfell and Argonia, though I don't recall a Black Marsh conquest), and one single tie, which would have been a loss for them if the Empire kept its balls from falling out of it's purse.

I think they are a bunch of stuck up [censored]s who think they can force their ways on others and think they are better then every one so.... they really are the entire high elf race.

Not Niranye. She is probably one of the nicest characters in the game and I am disappointed that she is not marriageable.
