Falmer are the race that LIVES underground. They were snow elves. If they didn't go undeground, they are not falmers -- and nobody have seen a Snow Elf since. Nobody have seen a Snow Elf in ages and there is quite a few decades since they dissapeared. I believe there would be a lot of information about them if they lived: They don't. We got goblin-like creatures now. You mean the Falmer we got now or the Snow Elves? One is possible, one is just as weird as Dwemer race. Snow Elves are gone, sad but true. They are now Falmers, bloodthirsty things. There is also no way to "turn" back evolution: Since evolution only goes 1 way. He was in a totally different plane when the accident happened. He returned and spent the last decades looking at the accident and wondering what happened. The Dwemer could also speak to each other with their minds, so he would know if anybody else survived. I am not sure how loose you guys thin the lore is. Because it isn't. Snow Elves can't come back and the Dwemer can't come back. Returning either would be as lore frienly as getting a spaceship into Skyrim. If somebody wants to make it, then sure. But don't fool yourself: It won't be any lore friendly. Snow Elves turned to goblins and there is only 1 Dwemer recorded since the era of Morrowind. Neither can "pop" back in. You could make Falmer a playable race, but they are also bloodthirsty and can't see. Lovely mix, if I may say so. Nope, falmer are snow elves, always have been, there is no disputing that. Saying that they are not is like saying Dwemer aren't dwarves or altmer aren't high elves. It's totally feasible that some escaped elseware. As for the Dwemer, your reply makes me think that you didn't even read the original post. The point was that the dwemer that come back were trapped in oblivion when the dwemer disappeared so they COULD NOT have communicated with Yagrum Bagarn just as he could not communicate with the rest of his dwemer brothers when he was in oblivion. And don't talk to me about what's "lore friendly" or not, I've played TES since Arena, and judging from the content of your comments you are just paraphrasing from Elder Scrolls Wiki. You know what other race that was "gone" and could never "pop back in" dragons. So i suggest you just stop being a total prick about everything And seriously, why comment if you don't even read the original post?
