Lysandus Awakes
Cinematic for The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall
-Mark Jones was one of the artists who worked on this animation. Daggerfall had many artists who worked on the game but Mark was one of only a few who stayed on for the full game development.

There's a lot to be said about Bethesda and the Elder Scrolls, but you gotta appreciate the hustle of coming up with in-universe lore bullshittery to handwave away cross-game inconsistencies.
The cat-people look different game-to-game? Uuhh they have entirely different body structures based on their own version of Turbo Astrology. The lizard dudes looked like humans in the first game? Uuhh they're mutant plant people that evolve rapidly. This entire country looks different because we're trying to cash in on the fact that Lord of the Rings just came out a few years ago? Uuhh Lightning Jesus retroactively changed it. Which one of these endings is canon and who gets to keep the giant robot? Uuuhhhhh time paradox

We're celebrating, as today marks the 30th anniversary of The Elder Scrolls. We've had a lot of adventures over the years, and we're looking forward to many more to come.
But for now, grab yourself a bite to eat and join the festivities!

Skeleton
Sprite for The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall
Mesh purchased to reduce Dev time. Model and animation worked on by Mark Jones
-Fun fact, the average dev time allowed per Daggerfall monster was only 1-2 days. Talk about crunch! Daggerfall saw high turnover for game artists.

One thing I find weird is how the story of Barenziah is perceived as this funny story about a slutty Dunmer princess by the community. It's not. It's the story of a girl stolen away from her homeland and parents by a colonial government, indoctrinated into that culture's customs, and was routinely sexually abused by men with power over her then blamed for it. It's not funny, it's depressing from start to finish. The only good thing that ever happened to Barenziah is that late in life she remarried a man who actually respected her, but even that went to shit because after his death she was chased out of the country with her son. She likely lived long enough to see her only daughter and grandchildren murdered then her homeland destroyed by a massive volcano.
It always just comes down to "haha, cat penis has spikes". Like bruh, did you pay attention to ANYTHING else? Or any of the context around that?
I'm not sure why the lore community doesn't see that. Elves age slowly. And she was a teenager by human standards. None of that shit was ok or her fault. It's explicitly about colonialism leading to the abuse of a puppet ruler of a nation taken over by a foreign entity.
And lore wise, Dunmer women are stereotyped as slutty because of Barenziah's story being told through an Imperial lense of "oh that silly, slutty Dunmer girl" which is pretty fucked up. Like it's a good lore bit, but damn. I wish people would think more critically about this story.
