Ancalagon Posted October 28, 2003 Share Posted October 28, 2003 To sorta quote the book Chimeravadum: "A Dwemer child of Eight can make? a golum (robot thing) but only an eighth of Dwemer can acuratley mimic a gollum." I know it's really bad <_< . It goes something like that, but Chimeravadum hints or states that the Dwemer did in fact wear armour and only the very skilled could impersonate their own Golums. In all respects, it reminds me of the Mentats from Dune. Men trained in the likeness of machines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad_Skeelz Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 I beleive the Mage Steward in Ald'Ruhn (lazy girl, making me run all over the place) said the book was useless because she's currently studying the centurions. She probably was hoping the book would contain some sort of insight into thier construction, and not be a childrens story about some guy who dresses up as a robot and hoodwinks a bunch of stupid chimer(whatever they are).

Ta'Thalos Posted November 1, 2003 Author Share Posted November 1, 2003 Adrian Laguna, I am fully aware of everything you brought up; my comment was a sort of, uh, what do you call those things.. ah yes: a JOKE! <_< Bad_Skeelz, Dunmer were once Chimer; their skins were turned dark and their eyes red as punishment for what Vivec, Sotha Sil and Almalexia did with the Heart of Lorkhan. PS: Ancalagon, nice to see a fellow Tolkienite around. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenGod86 Posted November 13, 2003 Share Posted November 13, 2003 Go to Tel Fyr it is west of Sadrith Mora there is a corpusarium inside. You will find out what it is when you talk to the people who live in Tel Fyr. There is a dwarf the last one in the very back of the corpusarium He has alot of info on the dwemer.

ObsidianKnight Posted November 15, 2003 Share Posted November 15, 2003 Everyone's met Bagarn. Don't tell us about him... But since you brought him up.....Bagarn doesn't know why the Dwemer disappeared. He has theories, like when Kagrenac used the tools, he got a result he didn't expect. I'm not sure if I agree that the Dwemer armor and weapons are made from scrap centurions. Why is there so much lying around, oh so carefully arranged an tables, in chests, etc?Perhaps the armor on the statues is of a different type, and when the Dwemer disappeared, so did the armor that was being worn? I dunno... its late, I'm confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yazatus Posted November 15, 2003 Share Posted November 15, 2003 Go to Tel Fyr it is west of Sadrith Mora there is a corpusarium inside. You will find out what it is when you talk to the people who live in Tel Fyr. There is a dwarf the last one in the very back of the corpusarium He has alot of info on the dwemer. Yep go there and first get the book "The Egg of Time" he doubts his story if you tell him about the book. You learn a lot there. If you want to check how the looked alike go to the ruins northwest of Uviriths Grave (2 statues) or check random Dwemer ruins and find ancestral dwarven ghosts - use calm creature and check how he looks.

TSBasilisk Posted November 30, 2003 Share Posted November 30, 2003 Here is what I've built up for the events following Red Mountain: Nerevar orders the disgruntled Dagoth Ur to guard the Profane Tools and leaves to consult with his other councillors. Dagoth Ur stands guard over the Tools, but does not utilize them. They return, and attempt to take the Tools back. Dagoth Ur is confused by the power of the Tools and the Heart, his mind muddled, and he cannot recognize Nerevar. Believing that all other people wish to utilize the tools for personal reasons, he refuses to surrender the tools. Nerevar and his soldiers overwhelm Dagoth Ur, who is carried away into the depths by his kin, who become the Heartwights. Nerevar is injured, and dies at some point. When and where is unknown. Sotha Sil, ever curious and awed by the Dwemer, investigates the Tools, and discovers how to utilize them. Dagoth Ur returns later. He does not utilize the Heart in any controlled manner, but taps it by creating Corpus. The Heart's energy is that of pure life, and Corpus is life growing uncontrolled. Through these growths, he utilizes the power, and becomes a god. Here are my theories on Dwemer technology, the basis of my later report on the Imperial Library:http://www.elderscrolls.com/ubbthreads/sho...rue#Post1820060 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stormscape Posted December 14, 2003 Share Posted December 14, 2003 I think the beauty behind The Elder Scrolls is that much of the history is gapped, leaving fans to ponder what happened, which perhaps inspires TC's or other things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
