Alessia and Morihaus
Added 2017-02-25 07:54:16 +0000 UTCA bit of obsure lore here. I'm glad the patron knew about it, because I had only heard about Alessia, and other than the fact that she was the first holder of the Amulet of Kings, I knew nothing about her. Alessia is a somewhat mythical figure from The Elder Scrolls. She was a slave of the Ayleids (Heartland Elves) but rebelled and founded the Cyrodilic Empire. Morihaus is a bit more obscure. He was a demiprince (think demigod), son of Kyne/Kynareth, and was said to have the appearance of a winged minotaur, despite the fact that the statue of him in Oblivion is of a human being. These two had a son and grandson who were also minotaurs, one of which become emperor for a little while.
The lore in The Elder Scolls is a little convoluted though. Bethesda has admitted that they don't keep the best tract of it, and lots of details just get forgotten about between games. I'd be surprised if anyone at Bethesda has ever really spared much thought about this little bit of lore, and if they ever visit it in a game, I'm sure they'd change everything.

At least she is using the correct position to mount/ride a minotour. OH! Race idea? Like a horse derby?

2017-02-27 16:15:36 +0000 UTCLol. Yep. In that entire series, Barenziah uses sex to manipulate and get her way if I remember correctly. I mean, she was even knocked up by an aging Tiber Septim, who forced her to have an abortion.

2017-02-26 09:47:36 +0000 UTCI just read it. Wow. That's actually pretty blatant. Even the Lusty Argonian Maid was mostly double-entendre.
2017-02-26 09:32:51 +0000 UTCI see it doesn't turn the entire thing to a link... Anyway it is part/book 4 of the uncensored version of The Real Barenziah. It was censored from Morrowind on forward.

2017-02-26 06:11:08 +0000 UTCI remember that. I thought that did a good job.
2017-02-26 05:56:07 +0000 UTCTomorrow or monday.
2017-02-26 05:55:46 +0000 UTCBarenziah? She is a super interesting character, and one of the few to be mentioned or appear in almost every Elder Scrolls game. I don't know the story you're talking about though. I'm going to try and look it up.
2017-02-26 05:55:34 +0000 UTCAs for the statue: It's entirely possible that the Alessian Order (ultra-zealous pro-human government/religion/extremists) I do love the image. Very well done! This and the one Dark Elf empress/queen riding Khajiit cock in a tavern when she was younger are two of the lesser thought of things in Elder Scrolls lore :P

2017-02-25 17:45:14 +0000 UTCVery nice. I think the lore being a bit convoluted actually accentuates things a bit.
2017-02-25 16:48:21 +0000 UTCIf any are curious about ES lore I could recommend the Shoddycast for their pretty good Lore series on the topic ! Talks about races, major figures & realms and such ^^

2017-02-25 10:31:47 +0000 UTCWell, if the parties that the Daedra hold are anything to go by, yeah...these scenes happen a LOT more often than players would think.

2017-02-25 09:54:04 +0000 UTCthanks. I'm glad I took the extra time to do that scenery, even if that's not my thing. It sets the image in the lore, and I think it makes the black Minotaur stand out more.
2017-02-25 08:28:29 +0000 UTCIts an awesome pic, the fact you enjoy it so much and is lore correct is bonus, all the details in the minotaur are incredible
