Speaking of Martin Septim x Hero of Kvatch, had a little thought a while ago about the blood of Akatosh giving Martin snippets of visions of the past/present/future (yah know, cuz of the whole god of time thing)
Of course we’ve got Sheogorath HoK seeping through time into Martin’s visions predicting both of their futures.
Needless to say I ascribe to the theory that Martin mantled the deity of Akatosh similarly to how the HoK mantled the title of Sheogorath and that one day they may cross paths again

Seriously though, I can totally imagine the Thalmor being extremely strict about that sort of thing, and seeing it as weakness if someone's emotions are too clearly visible.
Like "If you cannot keep your emotions under control, at least keep your hood up, justiciar" type shit.
look i can handle the idea that other people play my mmo and therefore i might have to see them while questing. i may get annoyed things get crowded but i get it, new content
what i Cannot. handle. is seeing your 50 billion companions, obnoxiously bright and large non-combat pets, and MASSIVE FUCKING WINGED TWILIGHT + CLANNFEAR OUT. IN THE VERY SMALL ENCLOSED SPACE. EVERYONE HAS TO GO TO. TO DO THIS QUEST
you are the mmo equivalent of the family of 7 that stands in costco aisles in a horizontal line
Banned everywhere except active combat instances, and even should only be summoned right before the fight: sorc pets and warden bears
Banned in writ hubs: extremely obnoxious flying or bad sound pets (scorpions and blobs for example)
Banned in even remotely popular and active quest locations: companions, borderline any non-combat pets unless they're extremely small or flying, and ABSOLUTELY ALL COMBAT PETS

"You ever look at a guar? I mean, really look at a guar? They've got those clawed little hands tucked up there ... You think I'd get bit if I just grabbed one of those little clawed hands? Probably what I'd do if someone grabbed my hand."
--Sharp-as-Night wondering if you can hold the hand of a guar without it getting upset
If y'all thought I forgot about this—you were wrong (I still love you)! I've just been hyper busy between classes and travel! But now, at the eleventh hour, may I present to you the 2026 TES Pinup Challenge!
(screenshot by @stormbeyondreality)
Last year's challenge was heavily themed around Oblivion given the Remaster's release, so this year I made sure to open the prompt list to broader TES themes and concepts, with bent toward contrast.
Remember to tag your entries #tes pinup challenge 2026 so I can reblog them here!
"You expect something grand, but I promised you the truth. I am only what time and circumstances made me. Son of a lost house. Friend to a fallen king. Some will tell you that we are the product of our choices. I've never found that to be the case."

ancano is the funniest character. it's so obvious that he must've really pissed someone off to land himself at the magic school in the Hates Magic country, and he never puts that math together.
they sent you to skyrim buddy. and not to squash a nation-wide rebellion of talos worship like elenwen, they sent you there to babysit, like, six mages in a middle-of-nowhere hold in a castle that is one failed concentration check away from plummeting into the ocean.
and then when he tries to set up an ambush in labyrinthian, one entire guy comes to try to kill you. that's all he could manage! he's clearly had time to send word to people so either he only has one friend, or all his others left him on read even though he presumably told them that there was some massively powerful magical Thing at stake, something that could make the thalmor even more powerful. but no one gave a shit. i cannot emphasize enough that the thalmor, the THALMOR, did not try to hoard one of the most potent magical objects of all time simply because they didn't want to take ancano's call.

hey gang i am a former zenimax online studios union member (laid off last year ✌) and i need you all to please read this carefully: this is NOT a strike. this is a rally. if a union is to strike, it needs to hold an authorization vote for the strike first. no such vote was held.
please do not spread misinformation or do overzealous things in the name of the devs. this time is chaotic enough for everyone as it is.
if you want to show support, please give feedback to these corporations and say nice things about the work that we all did.
