    I understand Boethia as the Deadra of "You are at the top, what are you willing to do to stay there?" And Malacath is the Daedra(?) of "You are at the bottom; rage against the dying of the light!". Interesting opposites with a similar outcome.

    Urag gro-Shub, he showed the finger to orc traditions and become a mage and a librarian in Winterhold where he rules the Archaneum with an iron fist, not even the Archmage can reply him.

    IMO Trinimac was actually not consumed by Boethiah but was "consumed" or corrupted by his sphere of plots and secret murder when he killed Lorkhan and ripped out his heart. Seeing this, Boethiah took on his form and humiliated him in front of his own followers. Boethiah metaphorically shit him out, destroying his sense of honor and turned him into malacath

    Urag Gro-Shrub. He may well have transcended his body, sent himself back to the beginning of time and is now Hermeus Mora.
    In seriousness, if you spawn Hermeus Mora into the game with Console Commands you get a bearded orc. Of the playable races in Tamriel isn't an Orc the least likely to be obsessed with books, yet the two biggest libraries accessible from Skyrim (Apocypha and the Arcanium) are run by Orcs.
    Urag is Hermeus Mora, not posessed by him, that wouldn't explain the Orc when you spawn Herma Mora with console commands, Urag IS Herma Mora.

    • @colddaze6680

      I suspected a connection maybe, ( the lust for knowledge, books collecting etc) as Urag is basically non traditional a.f. orc. But Urag being Herma Mora incarnate??? Think that's just a case of some console commands quirk more that anything.

    Idea for my next character, an Altmer halfbreed Orsimer, an orc as "pretty" as can be, with more elven eyes and tanish skin.

      He'd be the most powerful Orc but not the greatest. He might have saved Tamriel. But he was only able to do it because he was a Dragonborn. He was born with so much power and is a Demi-God. Dovahkiin wasn't like the Dark Brotherhood Assassin who saved The Dark Brotherhood and probably all of Tamriel from the wrath of Sithis. Or like the King who gathered all of the Orcs together in their greatest time of need.

      Also who cares what they were born with, they didn't ask to be dragonborn and it's not like they were cheating so how is that a negative factor

    I sort of feel as though Bethesda made the mistake of pigeonholing the Orcs into a cliche role as the nomadic, primitive, tactless barbarians who don’t belong anywhere in TES 5. 3 and 4 show much more respect to the Orsimer: Orcs in Morrowind maintained manors, wealth, and championed culture, manners, status, along with their primal warrior might, while the Orcs of Cyrodiil where honor bound to the Empire (many even assimilating to either Colovian or Nibenese culture) and fought amongst Imperial men/women with pride, while still maintaining their own racial pride.
    Then Skyrim comes along: “Orsinium has been sacked and rebuilt many times.”
    Oh, because they’re unmotivated, uncoordinated, dull, shamanistic green cavemen with no finesse or depth.

      Orcs are all still individuals with their own strengths and weaknesses. Many of those we see in Oblivion for example are those who largely integrated into the culture of Cyrodiil and feel more closely connected to the empire than Malacath. In Skyrim we find Orc strongholds because Skyrim was tolerant (or uncaring) enough to have them present - these orcs are those that follow the old ways and keep to themselves. That wasn't really tolerated in the heart of the empire, which is dominated by regional lords and counts who wouldn't allow a stronghold to set up on their property and had the military might to back it up, while in Morrowind it was the same - can't really imagine the great houses of Morrowind caring much for a stronghold nearby.
      Plus, the strongholds we find in Skyrim are close to the mountains where nobody really journeys - and close to wrothgar.

      I agree with everything you said. I just want to point out that in my original post I left out that I feel the other games made the Orcs way more versatile. Orcs held positions in many levels of society -from beggars to high-class- and had roles in many different fields - from bandit warlords to mages guild denizens. Skyrim make Orcs all feel the same.

    Hey guys. I know this is a bit off topic, but I am wondering if your up to a new FNV build challenge? I know, I know, this is kind of beating a dead horse build wise, but you guys are the best at backstories and all. There are some cool archeologist type mods, including a gear mod on the nexus that got me thinking. What if some guy was an archeologist living comfy in the center of the NCR but tired of re-examining the ruins there. Boredom makes him take a job with the Mojave express so he can get to explore new places and hopefully make new discoveries.
    He understands the uses of science, but is more into not only the tech before the war but older stuff as well, he is an archeologist after all. :) Bet you guys could have a lot of fun with this. Though, the I did find the archeologist 'field clothes' in the Archeologist mod a wee bit op, at 25 DT for Khaki's and a t-shirt. It would be an armor to take you through the game if you liked it.

    IMPORTANT REQUEST:
    If at all possible, could you please do a short video on the infection of Sanguinare Vampiris? I'm referring specifically to having Serana as a follower. It seems that I was becoming repeatedly infected with Sanguinare Vampiris after having her fight at my side in some battle. For the longest time, I failed to understand that it was "friendly fire" from her Drain Life attack that was doing this. I panicked! I love to have Serana as a follower. She's intelligent, VERY quick and quite deadly. So, after a bit of research on the UESP site, I learned that simply wearing a Necklace of Disease Immunity would serve as an infection preventative. Even after all my experience with Skyrim, I did not know any of this. For the longest time, I thought some opponent was infecting me, but I'd come away from battle infected even when not facing any vampires at all. Obviously, Serana had SOMETHING to do with this, but I had absolutely no idea what; or what her connection was, until I read the article on her in UESP (down in the Bugs section). It would, therefore, be a great service to other players to provide them a short, simple video detailing this odd side-effect. Thank you very kindly. And thank you for all your excellent videos, which is why I'm contacting you to do this, not anyone else.
