If I'd have my way, my Nord character would piss in his face while recounting Songs of the Return. Your Nord character kills an innocent priest and the last survivor of his species? Sounds like a genocidal dickbunny to me, especially considering Gelebor is nothing but kind and respectful. Anyway, SoC remake reviews came out, and i'm pretty shocked at how well it's been recieved. Glad the next generation can enjoy this masterpiece. http://www.metacritic.com/game/playstation-4/shadow-of-the-colossus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn right he would, let the last of the old Falmer feel the weight of all Atmora crushing down atop him. If I had any say in things after Gelebor bestows Auriel's Bow my character would Shout him into hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBossBalrog Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 BTW, on the topic of elves, does anyone know how the hell Elves have been flanderised over the years with them being sissies? The main archetype people tend to draw from are the Middle Earth Elves by Tolkien, And those Elves are a highly proud warrior culture who relish in spilling Orc blood. Seems odd. Not to mention the ones in TES are pretty bloody thirsty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the Arena, all men in Sovngarde would sing of the Dragonborn's deed of destroying an old enemy. Do you think Ysgramor or any of the old 1st Era Nords would take pity and spare Gelebor? I don't.

That's because their all assholes. Harming someone whose being nothing but helpful to you, and whose an innocent priest is not the mark of a warrior. It's the mark of murderer, and a prick.

Oh of course it's morally wrong, he's a kind warrior priest. Wouldn't stop my character's hand, even historically (Romans too >:O) the priestly and wise men weren't always spared, that's a romantic thing. Also he is a warrior, a Knight-Paladin to be exact. Priestly warrior but still a warrior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then what do you call those that kill innocent priests and pansy elves bearing arms and magic, lol, because Ysgramor's men likely had done both, and I doubt you could say they're not warriors for that. Murder's murder. Killing's killing. A warrior is simply someone that makes war their way of life.

No but they can't blame me if I can't take them seriously. It's like the French. They had some of the bloodiest periods ever, but they're still Frenchy which is why we make fun of them. Because they look and sound sofT, with a capital T.

The Good Doctor Posted January 31, 2018 Author Share Posted January 31, 2018 Something y'all might enjoy, you don't need to be an admin to have a cover photo for your profile anymore.

Pretty amazing. It was the Bloodmoon last night, hope none of you turned into werewolves. Edited February 1, 2018 by Celan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally think it's utterly ridiculous someone could think pouring some jugs of water into a fountain equates what your implying. But it does go well with the Nords and their well earned reputation for being stupid, idiotic, selfish, barbarians.... Oh let me guess, you have theory that Gelabor is actually evil, and wants to bring genocide on man by powering up Auriel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This reminds me of one of my favorite thread series in the old Beth forums. Back when New Vegas was announced, people started a long running series of “what encounters would you like to see?” threads and some of the ones people came up with were historical. One of them involved an old man selling lemonade really cheap. If you have high perception, you can tell it is actually piss. If you don’t, then you have to drink it to find out. If you have very low perception or intelligence, you have to drink several. Then you get a perk allowing you to “craft” your own using an empty bottle, which you can then sell for bad karma. 2 It's always nice when your writing gets reinforced by the canon after you come up with it.
