What a surprise! I never thought i'd see my favorite grumpy dunmer outside of tel uvirith and into skyrim! this is sure to be another legendary playthrough.
“in much the same way a sardine would struggle to comprehend the exquisite torture of being forced to fill in a tax return” Ok thats a great way to express the idea of a fate that in its full extent is incomprehensible to our lowly mortal selves.
Incredible introduction... WOW... I seriously mean, that was movie quality, and probably the best I've ever seen in a TH-cam series. Ironically, I've been rewatching your Fathis LP, and as soon as I saw the title in my feed... I knew Fathis had been resurrected (though, I didn't realise it was quite so literal !). Thank you for a lovely Christmas present, and all the Season's Best to you! :)
I love seeing Fathis' fearless will to question and examine on display at the beginning of the adventure. I guess being a God will squeeze some of the fear of mortality out of you, even if you're busted back down to size after it all. How can someone who's supposed to be so loathsome become so likeable? You have a gift for crafting characters, Dave.
I expect he tried to use a mod to remove all starting spells, but I've had mixed results with those on starter spells myself as well. Otherwise it'd have been Flames, Heal, and Sparks
Very happy to see a new Long play from you. Even more happy to see the return of Fathis. I binge the entire Morrowind LP a little before you finished it. It's how I found your channel actually. Always love to see your RPing, cannot wait to see where this goes
I got a new chair, a nice bottle of wine, a new pair of headphones, and some other neat things for our slightly early-scheduled christmas, and yet seeing more Fathis in my feed hits different as far as gifts go.
5:45 You know, this is a really cool way to do this. 11:02 Now it's really Fathis in Skyrim. 16:44 I love this. Fathis just analyzing the spectacle, because he knows he's safe. 22:12 Man, that's such a sight. 22:45 Oh, full enemy stats. Wasn't expecting that. 26:36 Ooooh, locational injuries, tasty. 33:54 I'd be confused if he didn't, really. 36:52 Oh, Fathis, you won't like that news. 37:19 Wow, Survival Mode is looking more and more like what I wanted out of survival mods... but all the other mods I like only exist for Oldrim. T.T 57:13 Not something I think I could manage. 1:01:05 That's easy to ignore. I still can't figure out what mod has a bugged texture in my Oldrim install. braziers outdoors occasionally have the ember texture stretch to infinity along a pixel or two wide beam, sometimes in multiple directions. Can't be asked to troubleshoot it too much, because it's random. 1:10:31 "By Telvanni standards"... yea, but that's Telvanni standards.
Very excited to see Fathis back in action! The twist seems like an alternate timeline and explains why Fathis is weak and doesn't know about current events; I like it! It also looks like you have a bunch of mods I've never used. I'm not sure how I feel about the sounds mod, but that's just a minor personal preference, I guess. Now I'm off to rewatch the entire Morrowind playthrough!
He is baaaack! I honestly didn't expect a return to Fathis, much less Skyrim! I have really missed your RP let's plays and narrative intros, it's something I can always count to cheer me up. Wealth and fortune, outlander!
Sir Dave, you are my guilty pleasure (though not too guilty), and every time I come back to one of your playthrough, I am reminded how good of a storyteller you are.
BY AZURA! BY AZURA! BY AZURA! Christmas present has arrived! 28:52 You already know Sparks cause (IIRC) dunmer in TES V are given free Sparks spell at the beginning of the game.
This feels so poetic, Fathis was the only Elder Scrolls character other than Claudius who had a full arc, I would argue that he is your best character, followed closely by Sir Crumpington. If anyone deserves a second life it's him in my opinion.
I've been watching you for so long now, and your ability to tell stories with great efficacy is always incredible. You inspire me to make characters with rich and diverse family lineages throughout the game series as well. I currently have a family line of Argonians that are playing through the three 3D games.
This has been such a pleasant surprise, I virtually grew up with the Fathis let's play so I'm thrilled to see a new series with my favourite grumpy old man. Merry Christmas.
Can just imagine Fathis quoting Kain's opening monologue from Blood Omen 2 "From the shards of tattered dreams I rose, unwilling. Tossed upon tides of pain that flowed and ebbed and left me searingly awake and more revoltingly... alive."
"A prospective student, are you?" " STUDENT?! Do you know who I am?! I'll have you know I'm Archmagister of House Telvanni! Fah, calling me a mere "student" when I was casting high-level spells since before you were a gleam in your father's eye! No respect from the younger generation at all!"
The Sparks book didn't work because Dark Elves start with Sparks as a bonus spell. You probably remembered to remove Flames and Healing, but forgot that some races give you extra starting spells.
... and here I was in the middle of doing my own "Eternal Champion playthrough" (Morrowind->Oblivion->Skyrim with the "same" character) and Dave brings back Fathis! Glorious!
And the Scrolls have foretold, of red eyes in the cold, that when brothers wage war come unfurled! Fathis Ulven, Bane of Gods, ancient shadow unbound, with a hunger to swallow the world!
I'm much more a Morrowind fan. But it's *Dave* playing Skyrim, so thanks to his storytelling calibre and playstyle, I'm strapped in for the ride. Here we go!
Ah, Fathis Ulven, you magnificent masterpiece, you know how to make an entrance - how I missed you! What a brilliant present I would never ask for but we got anyway. Thank you, Jingles! ❤
I don't know what I expected when I clicked on this video, but it FAR surpassed my expectations- I love this character, and am instantly hooked, looking forward to his adventure, instant sub! :)
only came across your channel today, I have to say the intro was the most entertaining I have seen in a long time, Fathis will get along famously with Neloth, the arrogant banter between them will be comedy gold, looking forward to the rest of the story 👍
If you'd like the daggers to be stabby the mod you're looking for is "Comprehensive First Person Animation Overhaul - CFPAO", it's a pretty safe mid-game install though it does affect all first person animations
Wait, what!? Fathis in Skyrim!? This... this will be the best thing since... I guess the original Fathis series? So far only watched the cinematic intro but boy am I hyped and ready! You, sir, are a legend.
Love what I've seen of the Morrowind multi-"season" series but man does Skyrim's more cinematic approach lend its self extremely well to your style of roleplay and story telling. This is going to be an amazing series!
Dave, I have to ask - how and where do you get the art for your intros??? Incredibly excited for the new LP, doubly so as good ol' Claudius was how I found you back in the day
I'm not sure about this one, but I think he said he drew the ones in his Total War Rome 2 Galatia LP himself, unless I'm misremembering. Edit: These look to be in different styles though, and people are talking about AI, so...
What a surprise! I never thought i'd see my favorite grumpy dunmer outside of tel uvirith and into skyrim! this is sure to be another legendary playthrough.
For a second I asked myself where in Britain, Tel Uvirith was located. Somehow I just assumed Dave was an irl grumpy dunmer.
@@nesnahprotsdamit’s in Wales
Nah its tottenham🤣
@@CrystalHollowIt can't be in Wales, it's too pronouncable
your storytelling at the start of these longer form series is so enthralling and well done
I am your 100th like dear son.
dear daughter, but thanks!!@@PashaOCE
I realize it’s many an episode away, but I can just imagine the meeting of Fathis and Neloth😂
“in much the same way a sardine would struggle to comprehend the exquisite torture of being forced to fill in a tax return”
Ok thats a great way to express the idea of a fate that in its full extent is incomprehensible to our lowly mortal selves.
I never expected any form of sequel to any character we’ve had the pleasure of watching and getting to know this is a perfect Christmas gift
Incredible introduction... WOW... I seriously mean, that was movie quality, and probably the best I've ever seen in a TH-cam series. Ironically, I've been rewatching your Fathis LP, and as soon as I saw the title in my feed... I knew Fathis had been resurrected (though, I didn't realise it was quite so literal !). Thank you for a lovely Christmas present, and all the Season's Best to you! :)
This was an entirely unexpected but very welcome Christmas gift! Looking forward to this playthrough!
Yessss I knew Santa was listening when I said I wanted a new Skyrim let's play by Sorcererdave for Christmas! Thanks Dave, Merry Christmas! 🎉❤
"Shor"
"DON'T GET ME STARTED ON BLOODY SHOR!!! THAT WANKER LORKHAN IS THE WHOLE REASON I'M IN THIS MESS!!"
I love seeing Fathis' fearless will to question and examine on display at the beginning of the adventure. I guess being a God will squeeze some of the fear of mortality out of you, even if you're busted back down to size after it all. How can someone who's supposed to be so loathsome become so likeable? You have a gift for crafting characters, Dave.
How wonderful it is to see Fathis again. I look forward to his new journey.
Dark elves start out with sparks, so that's mostly likely why you already had that spell.
I expect he tried to use a mod to remove all starting spells, but I've had mixed results with those on starter spells myself as well. Otherwise it'd have been Flames, Heal, and Sparks
Very happy to see a new Long play from you. Even more happy to see the return of Fathis. I binge the entire Morrowind LP a little before you finished it. It's how I found your channel actually.
Always love to see your RPing, cannot wait to see where this goes
What better way to spend my Christmas than with Tamriel's biggest Scrooge! Fathis is gonna have a miserable time and I'm all here for it.
I got a new chair, a nice bottle of wine, a new pair of headphones, and some other neat things for our slightly early-scheduled christmas, and yet seeing more Fathis in my feed hits different as far as gifts go.
Sounds like the perfect setup to enjoy this then!
5:45 You know, this is a really cool way to do this.
11:02 Now it's really Fathis in Skyrim.
16:44 I love this. Fathis just analyzing the spectacle, because he knows he's safe.
22:12 Man, that's such a sight.
22:45 Oh, full enemy stats. Wasn't expecting that.
26:36 Ooooh, locational injuries, tasty.
33:54 I'd be confused if he didn't, really.
36:52 Oh, Fathis, you won't like that news.
37:19 Wow, Survival Mode is looking more and more like what I wanted out of survival mods... but all the other mods I like only exist for Oldrim. T.T
57:13 Not something I think I could manage.
1:01:05 That's easy to ignore. I still can't figure out what mod has a bugged texture in my Oldrim install. braziers outdoors occasionally have the ember texture stretch to infinity along a pixel or two wide beam, sometimes in multiple directions.

With that opening, I cant help but imagine all the deadra held an intervention for Fathis before casting him down to Skyrim. 😂
Fathis is back! huzzah!
And "Ulven" is literally "The Wolf" in danish. Them nords might recognise that on some meta-level
Oh my God, it's Fathis!
This was a wonderful Christmas Gift Jingles, much love to you and Colin!
Just found this channel via this video and my goodness I am happy as larry to follow Fathis's journey as I also revisit Skyrim with mods!!!
well blow me down with a racer plume, this is a shocking development welcome back Fathis old chap .
It would be very cool if Fathis could eventually explore some of the more deeplore involved quest mods like Vicn's VIGILANT/GLENMORIL/UNSLAAD/etc
He is baaaack! I honestly didn't expect a return to Fathis, much less Skyrim! I have really missed your RP let's plays and narrative intros, it's something I can always count to cheer me up. Wealth and fortune, outlander!
Oh fuck yes Dave! This is about to be the greatest series ever
Sir Dave, you are my guilty pleasure (though not too guilty), and every time I come back to one of your playthrough, I am reminded how good of a storyteller you are.
What a poetic (and excitingly intriguing) intro, seriously your writing only gets better and better! That was magic.
BY AZURA! BY AZURA! BY AZURA! Christmas present has arrived!
28:52 You already know Sparks cause (IIRC) dunmer in TES V are given free Sparks spell at the beginning of the game.
First time as an adult that I've woken up excited on Christmas morning. Thanks Dave!
This feels so poetic, Fathis was the only Elder Scrolls character other than Claudius who had a full arc, I would argue that he is your best character, followed closely by Sir Crumpington. If anyone deserves a second life it's him in my opinion.

This makes me so happy im laterally rewatching morowind lets play right now and this comes out?! This is going to be good
I'm hoping for a guest appearance from J'zirr 🐱
😅👍
Oh my god Fathis AND another Skyrim LP it’s an ACTUAL Christmas miracle you cheeky sly dog lmfao
Okay I love the "character voice" Made me laugh and kept me watching.
"don't get me started on the BLOODY divines!"true that.
I've been watching you for so long now, and your ability to tell stories with great efficacy is always incredible. You inspire me to make characters with rich and diverse family lineages throughout the game series as well. I currently have a family line of Argonians that are playing through the three 3D games.

So fathis is neravarine gandaf the whited back to Nirn to become the dragon born? Gotta hand it to you Dave you have a gift with narratives my friend
Jeez, I cannot believe it has been 8 YEARS since that Morrowind playthrough, where does the time go?
"Hi Alduin, my is name Fathis, I know your dad!"
Phenomenal introduction! ‘A sardine comprehending the torture of submitting a tax return.’ is exquisitely Douglas Adams-esque
I literally cried out for joy when I realized this series was going to follow Fathis. Looking forward to more.
"A prospective student, are you?"
" STUDENT?! Do you know who I am?! I'll have you know I'm Archmagister of House Telvanni! Fah, calling me a mere "student" when I was casting high-level spells since before you were a gleam in your father's eye! No respect from the younger generation at all!"
Someone better tell Fathis real quick that Levitation magic was outlawed.
The Sparks book didn't work because Dark Elves start with Sparks as a bonus spell. You probably remembered to remove Flames and Healing, but forgot that some races give you extra starting spells.
Oooh fathis in skyrim!
First :p
My GOD what an intro. I did not expect this! My god I’m extremely excited Dave! You never ever disappoint
So i take a break from Sorcererdave and Skyrim for a few years, and a new Skyrim playthough is happening? DUDE
Great roleplay. I love this. It's just like a movie!!😎🥰😍😁
Dark elves automatically know sparks just like how bretons automatically have conjure familer its a race thing
Hello sir your skyrim abience music while exploring is very good .. what is it?
Finished the Morrowind series again 😊 Now i can binge watch this one. Fathis is always appreciated 🎉
God bless you! I thought after Claudius you were done with skyrim for a lifetime:
A wonderful Christmas present, looking forward to this, thank you Dave !
A proper survival mode description should have warnings about eating all the food in Whiterun for breakfast and being hungry when you leave the gates.
Nah, you should’ve eaten until Well Fed
... and here I was in the middle of doing my own "Eternal Champion playthrough" (Morrowind->Oblivion->Skyrim with the "same" character) and Dave brings back Fathis! Glorious!
And the Scrolls have foretold, of red eyes in the cold, that when brothers wage war come unfurled!
Fathis Ulven, Bane of Gods, ancient shadow unbound, with a hunger to swallow the world!
Fathis's back! I didn't know I wanted it, but now I'm excited!
A truly marvelous intro! Didn't expect to ever see Fathis again but I am excited~
Oh I so look forward to this. Seeing as how I am not sure how long before Dave gets frustrated with Skyrim and moves on.
Thanks for choosing survival mode 😊
Hyped for this playthrough to say the least!
No f*cking way. SorcererDave never misses!
Nice backstory bridge from Morrowind.
Ahhh you’ve taken me back to your Claudius let’s play with this. And mixed with Fathis?! I am ready. Take me on this new journey!
You put so much work into these intros, its always magnificently done
How do you get the artwork for the intro/voiceover segments?
Mate ... The man himself is back 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤ this was unexpected but extremely welcome.
Sparks was already in your spell list, it is specifically a starting spell like Flames and Healing for dunmer
I DO! I DO KNOW WHO YOU ARE!!!
Brilliant voice-over characterization! Very funny! Look forward to watching this series! Cheers!
time to curl up with a nice cup of canis root tea and enjoy
Such a lovely Christmas surprise! Have a good one, Dave
I'm much more a Morrowind fan.
But it's *Dave* playing Skyrim, so thanks to his storytelling calibre and playstyle, I'm strapped in for the ride. Here we go!
By azura by azura by azura, what a suprise
Fathis is back!? And in the fourth era!?!?
OMG! Merry Christmas to me!!!!! 😍
Been watching this channel for a few years, but never commented until now. Your storytelling in these series is great. Merry Christmas, Dave!
Super freakin cool man, very hype
Well, WE know who you are! And we are happy to see you back!
Cool episode, but please refrain from using AI to make illustrations as is steals from artists and harm their profession.
Teach me thy ways of story telling
Ah, Fathis Ulven, you magnificent masterpiece, you know how to make an entrance - how I missed you! What a brilliant present I would never ask for but we got anyway. Thank you, Jingles! ❤
I don't know what I expected when I clicked on this video, but it FAR surpassed my expectations- I love this character, and am instantly hooked, looking forward to his adventure, instant sub! :)
only came across your channel today, I have to say the intro was the most entertaining I have seen in a long time, Fathis will get along famously with Neloth, the arrogant banter between them will be comedy gold, looking forward to the rest of the story 👍
We've been waiting - faithfully - for your return to Skyrim, but for you to bring Fathis this way too? Sheer bliss!
This is an amazing Xmas surprise, thanks Dave - merry Xmas from OZ :)
If you'd like the daggers to be stabby the mod you're looking for is "Comprehensive First Person Animation Overhaul - CFPAO", it's a pretty safe mid-game install though it does affect all first person animations
The return of a legend! 😅
Wait, what!? Fathis in Skyrim!? This... this will be the best thing since... I guess the original Fathis series? So far only watched the cinematic intro but boy am I hyped and ready! You, sir, are a legend.
Thanks Dave! This is awesome! 👍
This is the best xmas present XD
The amount of (truly blessed) lore you've put into your character trumps the entirety of effort Bethesda put into skyrim itself 😂❤
It's too bad Special Edition was ruined by forcibly adding all that paid mods crap lol.
You realise the Anniversary Edition is a paid upgrade and you don’t have to pay for anything you don’t want to right?
@@stevethegeckotv You realise that Special Edition was updated to force installation of "free" CC content right?
What a wonderful Christmas present! Thank you, Dave! 💙🎉🍄
Love what I've seen of the Morrowind multi-"season" series but man does Skyrim's more cinematic approach lend its self extremely well to your style of roleplay and story telling. This is going to be an amazing series!

some of it was definitely ai unfortunately
So distractingly bad, really killed my desire to watch this.
This is the literally perfect Christmas gift. Thanks tons, “Jingles”. ;p Love ya tons, merry Christmas.
It's a Christmas miracle!
Now this is Christmas treat!
