but a Dunmer with such an attitude makes even more sense! That should help get me some sense of this guy's personality.
I've always tended toward the 'grim wandering badass' stereotype with my Nords. It is that perseverance against the adversity of being cursed by gods which gives them their ego That they are by their very origin story, a cursed race, really isn't far from their minds either I should think. I think this struggle really hit all Dunmer, enough to tame that outright condemnation of 'outsiders' - as that is what they are now. Blacklight is the capital now, and we can only imagine how strange that place is. While we do have alot of info on Dunmer, we've never seen mainland Morrowind except Mournhold in the Tribunal DLC, unless ESO features it. Although, as House Redoran are some badass warrior types, its not beneath them to learn the ways of all martial fields, and that learning process could be why you wear Nordic gear. She'd been waiting for something crazy to happen!Īs far as gear goes, shoot for Dwarven stuff early on! Bonemold and chitin, dwarven and ebony, are pretty lore friendly- and I like to think the Dark Elves are more familiar with Dwarven made gear than anything pre-forged by Nords. Shit like the dragons rising, like Ireleth says, is nothing to her. The customs, politics, and general culture would probably seem. While looking at Skyrim through your Dunmer's eyes, it shouldn't be completely strange to him. Much better than the sense of entitlement the Altmer have or whatever. It is that perseverance against the adversity of being cursed by gods which gives them their ego, and I commend them that lol. In my own playthrough of a Redoran champion I roleplayed as a rallying figure for Dunmeri peoples, while RPing a struggle with my faith (Another refugee? Gods really have abandoned your people dark elf.) I think this struggle really hit all Dunmer, enough to tame that outright condemnation of 'outsiders' - as that is what they are now. Reading about the Great Houses exploits during the Oblivion Crisis and after the Red Year, and seeing a bit of that perseverance of the old Dunmer superiority-complex in Solsthiem- really helped me see the modern day out look of a Dunmer. After Red Mountain erupted, it's observed that many of the Dunmer NPC's in Skyrim seem to be meek and a little distant to their ancestral egoism. In Morrowind there is the huge ethnocentric vibe which both the Great Houses and the Ashlanders put off.

I need to learn how to see things differently, if you follow me.

But I'm thinking this is an issue that goes beyond mods to some extent.

I play on PC, btw, so mod recommendations are welcome. But I wonder if any of you have advice for getting into a real native MW Dunmer RP. pretty standard fare, and it hardly makes him feel like a Dunmer from Morrowind.Īnd when I encounter Nordic ruins or cities, it's difficult to roleplay as though these things are foreign and exotic to a Morrowind expatriate, because those ruins and cities are so familiar to me, as the player. I'm running around with banded iron armor, some enchanted iron swords, an ancient Nordic greatsword, a longbow. Nothing feels really appropriate for him in terms of gear, yet. In the early stages, though, you're stuck with very Nordic weapons and armor.
(I think he's actually the Nerevarine from a previous MW playthrough.) He'll be getting Bonemold armor as soon as he can head to Solstheim, and I intend to spend a lot of time on that island, working for the Redoran Guard and sort of keeping Raven Rock under his protection. I feel like I'm not able to really see them from the outside, as if for the first time. In Skyrim, I can pretty much see where a lot of the tropes are coming from. In Morrowind, things are really out there - people live in bug shells, wizards build giant mushrooms, the lore and religion are influenced by things outside my ken. I'm thinking this is partly because I am so familiar with the Nordic side of things that it's difficult to see it from another perspective. However, in Skyrim I'm finding it really tough to get inside my new Dunmer's head, so to speak. Even when I'm playing Morrowind, which is as alien a fantasy world as I've ever encountered, I can still play a Nord comfortably - in fact, it's great fun, since I get to play as a 'stranger in a strange land' and RP how the character would be reacting to all of this crazy weird architecture, customs, people, languages, etc. I think it's because I've read a lot of the historical/mythological stuff on which the Nord culture is largely based, so it's easy for me to slip into that role. Nords are probably my most common race to play in Skyrim - or an TES game, really.
