More Elder Scrolls Online Loadingscreens (more like wallpapers I think)!

Zenimax added these to the game when you Login in or out, wich is a pretty nice touch in my humble lizardly opinion

Some where pretty hard to capture, because they're on screen for maybe two or three seconds with one second of having no vignette and loading symbol (the first one got it sadly)

Of course all the credit goes to Zenimax and the amazingly talented artist there (⁠｡⁠・⁠/⁠/⁠ε⁠/⁠/⁠・⁠｡⁠)

Did You Know: A Dovahzin (literally "Dragon Honor") is a dragon name? A mortal can be given a Dovahzin by a dragon as a mark of admiration from them, with one example of this being the dragon Nahfahlaar naming the Vestige "Ahkahtuz" (Hunter-Pride-Blade).

Where is the Amulet of Kings this. Where is the Amulet of Kings that. Where is my cranky imperial battle mage grandpa voiced by Alfred Molina? Hmm? Why is no one asking that? I know he's not dead. That man didn't survive for 165 years being a crafty curmudgeon son of a Tharn to die. Where is Abnur Tharn?!?

Let's talk about Elsweyr's architecture, specifically how geography influenced it.

In the Elder Scrolls Online base game, players can visit Kenarthi's Roost, which is the starting location for Aldmeri Dominion players. We could easily observe the stilted houses and buildings on the island of the Khajiits. This doesn't really reflect the nomadic culture that majority of the beastfolk have since these kinds of buildings are made to last and are built for prolonged stay in the area. How do I know this?

As a Filipino, I find this style of building especially familiar. Indonesians may also share the same sentiment. In the real world, these stilted buildings are known as "bahay kubo" in the Philippines. They are a staple of provincial life and are designed in a way that prevents floodwater and mud from entering the house. This is why they are built on stilts.

Another purpose of stilt houses is to decrease the occurrence of pests running into the houses. Tropical countries are known for the many insects and small mammals that inhabit them, and stilt houses can help to keep these pests out.

As you can see from the image above, it is quite different from the fantasy world. It is a Filipino stilted house from the Siquijor region. The roof is not exaggerated, and the windows are more open. However, the buildings from Kenarthi Roost are actually very based on real life.

Looking at the image, it is clear where the makers of the game got their inspiration. This is an Indonesian stilted house. The purpose of this kind of roofing is to let the water slide down in times of heavy rains. Observe the stilts on this house, and you can see that they have more support compared to the ones from the Philippines.

Basically, stilt houses are raised off the ground, which allows for better airflow and helps to keep the house cooler. Additionally, the stilts can be used to create a ventilated space underneath the house, which can help to lower humidity levels.

It can also help to regulate temperature and reduce humidity is the use of natural materials. Materials such as wood, bamboo, and thatch are good insulators, which helps to keep the house cool in the dry season and warm in the wet season. Additionally, these materials are porous, which allows for good airflow and helps to prevent moisture build-up.

In this pre-release image, we can see that the columns and stilts are made of stone, and the motifs of the buildings are reminiscent of the styles from Cambodia and its surrounding regions.

Adding to that, the region of Southeast Asia is characterized by heavy rains and storms. In the more tropical parts of Elsweyr, stilted houses are more common. However, as you go up north, the climate becomes less tropical and more temperate, and the houses become less stilted and more made of stone.

Below are some comparisons of Elsweyr to Southeast Asian locations (left is Elsweyr, right is the Southeast Asian location):

The similarities are quite evident.

While some references say that the Khajiit are based on the Romanian peoples of Europe, their architecture is very much based on Southeast Asian styles. It is also worth noting that traces of Persian, Romani, Indian, and other cultures can be found in Khajiit society.

Some YouTube content also states that the Khajiit can be compared to gypsies in the real world, as they are both considered "fringe people." Another note regarding the architecture is that it is also based on the domiciles of the sea gypsies in the Philippines, the Badjaos.

Southeast Asia is a very beautiful region with a great deal of cultural diversity. As someone from the Philippines, I can say from my own experience that foreigners can experience how Western and Eastern cultures merge here.

Oh my GOD this took me sooooo long and also I suck at doing comics but!!! I'm very proud of the result and I can finally get this idea out of my system!!!

My version of the events of the Dragonhold dlc, because I played it out of order and also I am a sucker for drama. And for Azgumar and Abnur's weird friendship. And for a feral Fennorian.

(Both Azg and Abnur survive, but at what cost. I'll tell you the cost it's Abnur's legs and Azg and Fenn's relationship taking a very very VERY hard blow)
