The Dragon cult lore is my favorite mostly because it’s mysterious and interesting, like whom is Konahrik? Would he or she be the Hortator of the Nords in a sense? Even the surrounding the Bloodskal Nords on Solstheim and the potential and interesting Bloodskal blade is very cool, was it forged by Zahkriloss (or how ever you spell it) as a sword for a general? Was it forged for someone in Miraaks army? Hell the whole Miraak vs Vahlok fight is awesome in my book. Even the Dovakiin lore in Skyrim like being the Nerevarine of the Nordic people interesting in its own way.

 

I also feel Pelinal is one of the best elements of lore as well, I like to headcanon that he is essentially the Doom Slayer of Tamriel only replace demons with Ayleids.

That comparative mythology is a hard science.

Dwemer Warmachines - corresponding to The Serpent

(Once Dumac withdrew from the table, the Vvardenfell War became one for survival.)

Dwemer Laboratory - corresponding to The Ritual

(The lab resembles a harness for safely interacting with experimental architecture.)

The Dwemeri interpretations of the constellations are indeed some of the best lore, and I wish the games did more with the concept of cultures having their own unique views on what we see as fairly constant (gameplay driven) constructs. Craglorn started going there, but didn't really finish.

"The main storyline revolves around the disappearance of the constellations from the sky." The quests do seem to have better premises than the chapters have.

I'll add I took these from Resdayn Restored's resources pack.

I know that Vivec and his rapestick are really popular among fans, but I've always kinda really hated them.

THANK YOU

Lol this

To be honest, I've mostly disliked people who treated Vivec as the only true character to like and TES III as the only TES game you are allowed to like. Nothing wrong with liking Vivec, but the way people sometimes like him...

Vivec to me has always come off as a bit of a morally dubious and unhappy Tom Bombadil

Vivec got a big boost in popularity from his rape of Azura. Everyone hated that bitch.
