A metric tonne of complaints from the previous Elder Scrolls have been addressed and the result is a much friendlier, vibrant and compelling game. Bootstrap studio 4.4.4 download. Finally, most of its internal consistency shortcomings are a result of gamer s being less forgiving when games become this convincing and immersive - and it's hard to damn Bethesda for doing just that.

Found in the following locations:
  • To marry, the players must own Rings of Mara —found previously in the Imperial Edition of Online, and no longer obtainable—or a Pledge of Mara. Once the pair has one of these, they must travel to a Shrine of Mara and perform the Ritual of Mara.
  • Most of the races of Tamriel practice marriage according to the teachings and traditions of the Eight and Nine Divines, specifically according to Mara, the goddess of maternity and love and patron of marriages, known also as Morwha by the Yokudans. Marriages of this kind are officiated and overseen by priests and priestesses of Mara, often in a temple of Mara where others gather to witness the v.

Ghosts Walk Among Them

Elder Scrolls Oblivion Marriage

The departed spirits of the Dunmeri, and perhaps those of all races, persist after death. The knowledge and power of departed ancestors benefit the bloodlines of Dunmeri Houses. The bond that forms between living family members and their immortal ancestors is partly blood, partly ritual, partly volitional. Anyone brought into a house through marriage is bound through ritual and oath into the clan, gaining communication and benefits from the clan's ancestors; however, his access to the ancestors is less than that of his offspring, and he still retains some access to the ancestors of his own bloodline.

The Family Shrine

Each residence has a family shrine. In poorer homes, it may be no more than a hearth or alcove where family relics are displayed and venerated. In wealthy homes, a room is set aside for the use of the ancestors. This shrine is called the Waiting Door, and represents the door to Oblivion.

Here the family members pay their respects to their ancestors through sacrifice and prayer, through oaths sworn upon duties, and through reports on the affairs of the family. In return, the family may receive information, training, and blessings from the family's ancestors. The ancestors are thus the protectors of the home, and especially the precincts of the Waiting Door.

The Mortal Chill

Spirits do not like to visit the mortal world, and they do so only out of duty and obligation. Spirits tell us that the otherworld is more pleasant, or at least more comfortable for spirits than our real world, which is cold, bitter, and full of pain and loss.

Mad Spirits

Spirits that are forced to remain in our world against their will may become mad spirits, or ghosts. Some spirits are bound to this world because of some terrible circumstances of their death, or because of some powerful emotional bond to a person, place, or thing. These are called hauntings.

Some spirits are captured and bound to enchanted items by wizards. If the binding is involuntary, the spirit usually goes mad. A willing spirit may or may not retain its sanity, depending on the strength of the spirit and the wisdom of the enchanter.

Some spirits are bound against their wills to protect family shrines. This unpleasant fate is reserved for those who have not served the family faithfully in life. Dutiful and honorable ancestral spirits often aid in the capture and binding of wayward spirits.

These spirits usually go mad, and make terrifying guardians. They are ritually prevented from harming mortals of their clans, but that does not necessary discourage them from mischievous or peevish behavior. They are exceedingly dangerous for intruders. At the same time, if an intruder can penetrate the spirit's madness and play upon the spirit's resentment of his own clan, the angry spirits may be manipulated.

Oblivion

The existence of Oblivion is acknowledged by all Tamriel cultures, but there is little agreement on the nature of that otherworld, other than it is the place where the Daedra live, and that communication and travel are possible between this world and Oblivion through magic and ritual.

The Dunmer do not emphasize the distinction between this world and Oblivion as do the human cultures of Tamriel. They regard our world and the otherworld as a whole with many paths from one end to the other rather than two separate worlds of different natures with distinct borders. This philosophical viewpoint may account for the greater affinity of Elves for magic and its practices.

Foreign Views of Dunmeri Ancestor Worship and Spirit Magic

The Altmeri and Bosmeri cultures also venerate their ancestors, but only by respecting the orderly and blissful passage of these spirits from this world to the next. That is, Wood Elves and High Elves believe it is cruel and unnatural to encourage the spirits of the dead to linger in our world. Even more grotesque and repugnant is the display of the bodily remains of ancestors in ghost fences and ash pits. The presentation of fingerbones in a family shrine, for example, is sacrilegious to the Bosmer (who eat their dead) and barbaric to the Altmer (who inter the ashes of their dead).

The human cultures of Tamriel are ignorant and fearful of Dark Elves and their culture, considering them to be inhuman and evil, like Orcs and Argonians, but more sophisticated. The human populations of Tamriel associate Dunmeri ancestor worship and spirit magic with necromancy; in fact, this association of the Dark Elves with necromancy is at least partly responsible for the dark reputation of Dunmer throughout Tamriel. This is generally an ignorant misconception, for necromancy outside the acceptable clan rituals is a most abhorrent abomination in the eyes of the Dunmer.

The Dark Elves would never think of practicing sorcerous necromancy upon any Dark Elf or upon the remains of any Elf. However, Dark Elves consider the human and Orcish races to be little more than animals. There is no injunction against necromancy upon such remains, or on the remains of any animal, bird, or insect.

References to events in the history of The Elder Scrolls are documented separately to Easter Eggs.

If you think you have found an undocumented Reference, please post your idea on this article's talk page before adding it to this article.

Arena[edit]

Items[edit]

  • The posters advertising the Arena have a group pose that is very much reminiscent of the box art of The Elder Scrolls: Arena.
  • During The Rosethorn Cache, you will encounter the riddle: 'Two bodies have I, though both joined in one. The more I stand still, the quicker I run.' This riddle also appeared as a puzzle in Arena.

Storylines[edit]

  • Arena cistern quote
    The Gaiden Shinji quote that appears in the very beginning of the intro to Arena, 'The best techniques are passed on by the survivors', appears in many places in Oblivion. The recovery cistern in the Arena Bloodworks is etched with the quote around its circumference. The Blue Team Gladiator quotes it when you ask him about Gaiden Shinji. It is also repeated in books such as The Mirror.
  • One of the first loading screens in the game mentions that no-one has escaped from the Imperial City Prison since the days of Jagar Tharn, referencing the main character's escape from the dungeon at the beginning of Arena.
  • At random, people in Skingrad will tell you a story about buying a sweetroll and being accosted by three thugs. They will then end their tale by saying 'So I took that sweetroll and..' This same story was used in previous Elder Scrolls titles in determining the character class when it is told, and the player must choose what action is taken.

Daggerfall[edit]

People[edit]

  • Orc adventurers can be encountered in numerous dungeons; when spoken to, the Orcs will claim that they are agents sent by King Gortwog of Orsinium to bring wealth to their homeland. Gortwog was an important character in Daggerfall and one of the possible recipients of the Totem of Tiber Septim.

Redguard[edit]

People[edit]

  • Cloud Ruler Temple, headquarters of the Blades, houses a Redguard member by the name of Cyrus. Interestingly enough, Cyrus was the name of the protagonist of Redguard, although they can't both be the same person since Oblivion is set several centuries after Redguard. A pirate named First Mate Malvulis also sings of a hero named Cyrus.
Elder Scrolls Oblivion Marriage
  • When speaking to Bothiel, she says, 'The orrery here is the only one in Cyrodiil. There's one more in Hammerfell.. the old one at Stros M'Kai.' This is a reference to the Observatory in Redguard.

Morrowind[edit]

Items[edit]

  • At the conclusion of the Fighters Guild storyline arc, Modryn Oreyn will present you with the Helm of Oreyn Bearclaw. The item and Modryn's dialogue about it reference Malacath's Daedric Quest in Morrowind, wherein the player is assigned to kill the supposed last living member of the Oreyn line in order to acquire the Helm.
  • Some Goblins may be seen wearing Netch Leather armor, as seen in Morrowind, which unfortunately cannot be retrieved from their corpses.
  • In Morrowind you may find a blade called Umbra held by a male Orc, also named Umbra. It is a two-handed claymore that Soultraps for 120 seconds on Target. In Oblivion you can find that blade but instead of it being a claymore it is a one handed longsword held by a female Bosmer also named Umbra. However, it has the same effects as the one in Morrowind.
  • The Shield of the Red Mountain is a randomly found Mithril shield. It is an obvious reference to Vvardenfell's most recognizable physical feature, and is supported by the Fire Shield enchantment on it.

People[edit]

Elder Scrolls Oblivion Steam

  • Of possible relation to Drarayne Thelas of Morrowind fame, Arvena Thelas can be found in the city of Anvil. The first mission of the Anvil Fighters Guild prompts you to - contrary to the Morrowind mission - defend the rats in her home from being killed.
  • A reference to one of the Great Houses of Morrowind, Falanu Hlaalu openly admits to having moved to Skingrad from Morrowind. Her relation to the House is unknown, although speaking to her about Skingrad opens the option for a discussion on a certain type of fine.
  • Barbas - the shape-shifting, hound-like companion of Clavicus Vile - may very well have been Creeper, the legendary merchant Scamp of Morrowind, noting that he was once a 'Scamp, making deals with Orcs'.
  • Two tough-looking Dunmer have taken up residence at Walker Camp, which lies slightly north of Cheydinhal. Both are agents of the Camonna Tong, a clandestine organization centered in Morrowind. No explanation for their presence is given, although together they make a weekly delivery of Skooma to a drop site near Kingscrest Cavern.
  • In the Mehrunes Razor official plug-in, a Morag Tong Assassin can be found inside a jail cell in Sundercliff Watch, having been captured on a mission to assassinate the Drothmeri Commander.
  • There is also another reference to Morrowind during Unearthing Mehrunes Razor. In Sundercliff Watch, you can find 'A Letter Home' on a table talking about one of the apprentices' relatives/spouse living in Vvardenfell and working for Desele. She says it pays well. Morrowind players may be familiar with Desele's establishment, the House of Earthly Delights.
  • In Cheydinhal, Aldos Othran may be heard singing a high-pitched song about the Cliff Racers of Vvardenfell, whose presence was an annoyance to many Morrowind players.
  • On rare occasion NPCs may be overheard discussing the acts of 'Saint Jiub', who drove the Cliff Racers away from portions of Morrowind. This is undoubtedly a reference to the fellow prisoner aboard ship in the introduction of Morrowind, who is never seen again in that game.
  • After you finish Sheogorath's Daedric Quest involving a prank in Border Watch, you can find a special issue of The Black Horse Courier entitled Rain of Burning Dogs!. When asked about the 'weather anomaly', the local weather expert mentions 'the occasional wayward mage crashing to the earth'. This is a reference to Tarhiel in Morrowind (who was an Easter egg in that game).
  • In The Wandering Scholar, you will be required to escort a female High Elf named Elante of Alinor to Brittlerock Cave so that she might continue her study of the Daedra. This same woman makes an appearance in Morrowind, within the cave of Ibar-Dad - the tomb of Mordrin Hanin - as a hostile NPC; her notes indicate that she was engaged in researching the Daedra therein.
  • After the 11th battle in the Arena, (the 2nd Myrmidon rank match) when you report back to Owyn, he will say, 'You are cutting through the Yellow Team like a knife through Scrib Jelly.'Scrib Jelly is an alchemical ingredient available in Morrowind.
  • Umbacano is a collector of Ayleid antiquities in the Imperial City. He mentions someone named 'Sorcalin' during Secrets of the Ayleids. Both Umbacano and Sorcalin appeared in Morrowind in the Yassu Mine.
  • Nord NPCs with low Disposition towards a female player or NPC may utter 'You remind me of a witch I once knew. I hate witches.' upon seeing them. This may be alluding to a running gag in Morrowind, where one could find Nord barbarians in the wilderness, having been victims of encounters with a witch, and being stripped down to their undergarments as a result.

Storylines[edit]

  • A random NPC-to-NPC conversation concerns a new play entitled The Lusty Argonian Maid. The play made its debut in Morrowind as a rough draft written by the eccentric Hlaalu noble, Crassius Curio. The book containing a scene from the play may be found throughout the game.
  • While talking about current events, Altmer, Bosmer and Dunmer may comment on a rumor that the Nerevarine has left Morrowind on an expedition to Akavir and has not been heard from since. The ultimate goal of Morrowind, of course, was to become the Nerevarine, the united head of all the houses of the Dunmer.

Bloodmoon[edit]

People[edit]

  • By traveling to Dive Rock, it is possible to obtain Agnar's Journal, belonging to Svenja Snow-Song's husband. The journal tells of Agnar's ascent to the position of Chieftain of Thirsk following the departure of the Nerevarine, his marriage to Svenja, and their quest to destroy the Uderfrykte Matron, mother of the Udyrfrykte, a foul creature which ravaged Thirsk in Bloodmoon.
  • The Waterfront District of the Imperial City is home to certain members of Raven Rock, a bankrupted colony of the East Empire Company. The Raven Rock colony, and the fate of its citizens, featured prominently in Bloodmoon.

  • The Construction Set reveals the default name of the player to be Bendu Olo. In Elder Scrolls history, Bendu Olo was the Colovian King of Cyrodiil in 1E 2200, known for fighting the Sload.
  • In Cloud Ruler Temple, there is a Blade by the name of Pelagius. He is probably named after one of the four Emperors with the same name.
