  1. Wrong video wrong topic. But I have a wild theory I was thinking about. So the dwemer zero summed and all disappeared and you say they are not alive. So I am picking and choosing. But what if they got transported to a world without any magic whatsoever. Thrown so far out of the reaches of the normal god's that they are subject to new rules. Now in dwemer ruins they have those faces everywhere. Take the helmet off and do a little aging the zero sum changed their basic biology and they started as monkeys. Leading to the events of fallout. Where in fallout you see that strange fascination with a face. Maybe the president or whoever. But you find nirnroot in the predwin as an Easter Egg. And all the Lovecraft stuff in their are lesser deadra who are in control of these world's but don't really bother. Again sorry long comment.

  2. Going along with the theory that Tamriel was Aldmeris, I have a theory that perhaps the Bosmer were the original form of Aldmer. Perhaps Y’ffre gave the mer their form, then there was a migration to Summerset, followed by a a migration back to mainland Tamriel.

  3. My first character in special edition was a wood elf. Also Faendal has got to be the most popular wood elf I’ve ever known or met virtually 😉. Great port cast again team 🙏

  4. elder scrolls pickup line: damn girl do you know about trinimac? Cause i’m just trynna mac u mine. (this works 100% of the time and whoever you tell it to will instantly fall in love with you so be very careful who you say it to)

  5. There's been genetic work done to mix spider and goat DNA in order to produce spider silk from goats. The silk comes out in the milk, which is rather strange, but since goats are easy to control and manage, that's apparently an effective way to get the stuff.

  6. Hey guys I just bought your merch on teespring and I just realized it is the first official youtuber merchandise I have ever bought. I have loved your content for so long! Keep it up!!!

  7. It’s worth noting that even in the very early stages of human history if we lived around Forrest’s we would cut down smaller trees and rummage through the underbrush and create paths. So the huge enormous Lee thick Woodlands weren’t always necessarily A thing.

  8. In reality you can make a bow from the horns of rams or sheep. They can be backed with sinew and the string can be made from the same sinew. As for arrows yep they can be made from bone. As far as the shaft I have not found any evidence of arrow shaft being made from bone. Fetching is easy but, in bushcraft we used pine pitch a sort of tar. Not sure what they would have done to replace that.

  9. The raids to replace tribe members is inspired by real life, as weird as it may sound. Some native tribes in today's US would do that. There is the case of Mary Campbell in the 18th century, who became a member of the Delaware after being taken during one raid. They didn't take on the full identity of the people they were supposed to replace, as much as they were adopted into the families whose members they replaced. But yes, this is inspired by real life.

  10. These podcasts have provided many hours of interesting listening material while working from home. Keep up the good work! 🙂

    PS: C0DA is canon, change my mind.

  11. It would be so cool if when we get to the deepest part of Valenwood, Y'ffry is just a huge Hist tree and the ooze that the wood elves came from was actually their solid form came from eating Hist sap much like the Argonian race… 🤔

  12. Valenwood would be an interesting place as there is clearly a big divide of life between the Bosmer that live in the cities and the Bosmer that live in the wild. Very Dunmer and Chimer sort of division. Would be interesting to see a full game take place here, only they don't have the sort of world ending-elder scroll needing-event that would be the focus here. Maybe an expansion should take place here. One thing I would like to know more about is the relationship to the Thalmor and how that dynamic is working. Are the Thalmor occupying cities? Acting as some sort of dynamic like Italy and Germany like during WW2?

  13. Bosmer are my favourite and have been forever, I find their lore so interesting! Kinda underrated imo, overshadowed (understandably though) by the Dunmer I think – so really great to have such a long look at them 😊

  14. I'm playing a female Wood Elf in Skyrim. It's cool when I meet other friendly Bosmer NPCs, because their dialogue is coded to occasionally call me "Sister."
