#I heard someone say they intentionally draw Voryn with about the same shade as he is Dunmer- just gold

These past few years I feel like I’ve watched the flanderization of Nerevar into a Chad himbo work on double time. (Which it’s a fandom ofc that’s going to happen, it happened before me, it’ll happen after I’m done.) But the actual issue I see with this that I have seen develop in real time is the fact that everyone seems to draw Nerevar really pale and Voryn, the main villian of the game, dark. As far as I recall most fan art of Nerevar and Voryn had them having fairly similar skin tones prior to the past couple years so like…what happened?

#the elder scrolls #Morrowind #I heard someone say they intentionally draw Voryn with about the same shade as he is Dunmer- just gold #because the idea that a goddess cursing everyone to have dark skin did not sit right (can’t remember who atm) #but there’s been a definite movement that woobifies Nerevar from a realistic figure with nuance. to literally just an idiot #I think you can flanderize these characters if you’re seeking a funnier tone from Morrowind which is fair! but watch how you’re doing it
