I've always thought it would be cool if the way the Dragon Aspect shout looked was unique to each Dragonborn. Like, it reflects their own individual soul or dragon or somethingon

Imagine being a peasant in cyrodiil during tiber septims rule. You go to bed in your cosy hut in the jungle, probably just had a nice mango and then BOOM you wake up and it’s all wheat fields. I’d be mad asf.

I'll actually kill Bethesda. you mean that they not only acknowledge but explain the drastic discrepancy in the Nord religion as portrayed in Skyrim vs previous TES games, and it's the result of intentional, systemic imperial colonialism and religious/cultural erasure? you're telling me that for two centuries, the imperials actively worked to root out the traditional Nord religion and replace it with their own deified emperor to justify their imperialism and no one told me? you're telling me they intentionally conflated Tiber Septim, a Breton, with a Nord hero so that he'd be local enough for the Nords? you're telling me the Empire waged a cultural genocide on Skyrim only for it to backfire so spectacularly the Nords become out-and-out Talos fanatics willing to wage a civil war against the Empire for finally rescinding the whole Talos thing? and no one told me??? you're telling me they just casually hid this info with one (1) npc who has no quest importance and lives on the very edge of the map??? and no one told me????????

good lord that makes the whole 'imperial dragonborn vs nord dragonborn' that much worse.

Inktober Day Twenty-Nine: Massive

Distorted fragments interspersed the Dagoth-dreams, drifting in from a different time: Numidium radiant as starlight below a scorching desert sun, a walking tower of burnished brass. Two men stood at its feet, small as ants. A hood cast one of them in shadow, but the other wore a familiar face, displayed on every Imperial coin. Tiber Septim, the Divine Talos, ascended and worshipped as a god, who’d signed the Armistice with the Three. He’d failed to bring Morrowind under his control by force, but threatened the Three in giving up Numidium. The Living Gods submitted to a human Emperor, keeping their own laws and customs in return. Had they foreseen the rise of the Sixth House? Had they placed Numidium in foreign hands for it to raze a country not their own? Tiber Septim, who needed one last piece to complete his collection of conquered kingdoms. Tiber Septim, the Emperor who betrayed his Battlemage by stabbing him between the shoulders, piercing spine with sword, fracturing the soul of his most trusted friend to fuel a Dwemer idol of destruction. From Fear in a Handful of Dust

“To The Block!” Poll, TES Edition - 2

Thanks to everyone who participated so far we have made Tamriel a bit better by getting rid of Molag Bal, who was voted out by an overwhelming majority and sent to the block and then to an extradimensional jail for all his crimes!

But our show in the arena goes on, with nine more participants awaiting your verdicts! Remember: you must vote for those who you want to see on the block! This is an "elimination by the majority of votes" poll. I saw confusion about this and I hope I made it clear this time around!

So, for example, I have a bone to pick with Tiber Septim, so I vote FOR HIM, so he can end up on the block.

Without more talking on my side, let's find out...

No One Knows Who Talos Is

I’ve rediscovered lately how many people think it’s canon that Talos is three guys in a trench-coat: Tiber Septim, Wulfharth of Atmora, and Zurin Arctus. 

So time for another reminder. NOWHERE IN THE GAMES OR OFFICIAL LORE TEXTS IS THIS EVER STATED.

“What about the Arcturian Heresy?” you might ask.

To which I say, “Read it.  Talos the god isn’t even mentioned in the text.” (I could add that it’s the Arcturian Heresy which doesn’t mean it’s automatically the truth and that the Greybeards in Skyrim contradict one of its biggest claims, that Tiber Septim never went up to High Hrothgar before his first big battle. But that’s another story for another time.)

“The Arcturian Heresy” is a book about how Tiber Septim managed his public profile by taking credit for two other guys’ stuff. It never says anything about the three becoming a god together afterward.

Now, if you decide to take the Arcturian Heresy as fact, it’s an interesting theory that they got all tangled up together and became a god, and of course, we had devs who endorsed the idea in non-official works. There’s a hint in one corner of Morrowind for it when we meet a guy who may be Talos and he introduces himself as Wulf. But it’s not canon, and there are a whole bunch of other possibilities for Talos’ origins.

Six Alternate Explanations

1. The most suspicious Official Imperial cult one that no one seems to buy in fandom: The gods were happy he did such a great job and said, join us. Yeah I’m suspicious too.

2. Tiber Septim engineered his own cult of worship in his lifetime (canon), and after. Somehow, he fiddled around to give himself power. (Come up with your own theory how he leveraged the people’s worship.)

3.The Book THere Be Dragons implies he ate a bunch of dragon souls to ascend. 4. He’s tapping into the Missing god Lorkhan’s power somehow. The extreme version is he mantled Lorkhan. There’s a lot of circumstantial evidence for a link between Talos and Lorkhan, but again nothing official.

5. CHIM. Speaking of mostly out-of-game theories championed by devs. CHIM is mentioned a tiny bit in game, but never explained, so it can be made to do a lot of stuff in your head-canons.. 6. The Thalmor would like to remind you that Talos is not actually a god. Sure, you can get blessings from shrines, but consider that in Morrowind, you can get blessings from saints’ shrines and it’s explicitly stated that the Tribunal priests enchant them to give the blessings. The Imperial cult is completely capable of setting up Talos shrines. (There are some issues with the Thalmor’s stance, particularly involving the DLC Knights of the Nine, but if you’re really in denial, here are your starting points.)

Final Note: This is a jokey round-up of a bunch of theories and headcanons and I’ve left out a lot of the details. But if you want my opinion?

I’m Talos-Agnostic, though I lean towards there being something to do with Lorkhan. Not fully mantling him, though, because then we’d be talking about Lorkhan not Talos, who would no longer be the Missing God. But what do i know? Have fun with all the possibilities.

Whoever is rotating me in their mind, please stop. I'm feeling nauseous.

Talos, as the Stormcloaks, Empire, and Thalmor play tug of war with him, probably

Headcanon that The Knights of The Nine were wiped out by the Thalmor during The Great War for two reasons

1. They are called The Knights of The Nine meaning they recognize Tiber Septim's place as a god and

2. They are a faction based on a man who committed elven genocide much like Tiber Septim they hate Pelinal Whitestrake as much as they hate Tiber Septim
