Just please don't make the wolf mount 4k

Don't worry, I think it'll be 2500 or less, it's not shiny and glittering and doesn't have a cool summoning animation. And after the S**t storm that happened with the Dro-m’Athra Senche, I think they get the picture.

I'm glad they made that 4k and only available a short period. It is the ugliest mount out there and a true eyesore in Cyrodiil. At least there aren't that many. They have some blue *** leakage spewing behind them as they run. At least the owner doesn't have to see how ridiculous they look since they can't run behind themselves.

Sounds like you might be a bit jealous?

YES!! Thanks for the clarification!

I have some lore-related questions about the Nixad, if someone doesn't mind to answer. Are these creatures intelligent? On the PTS, I saw that they often act on ways that seem to indicate they are, like when wild ones fly to us and laugh. Do they understand Tamrielic language? And I often saw them around runes, Nirnroot and Minotaur camps. Are they attracted to magic? I'm asking for RP reasons, because they look like the perfect companion for my mage character.

Also, I said that before, but the Wolf looks amazing. A really great model. Great outfits, too, and the Lynx is really adorable. Great job on these too.

I guess it is a safe bet to assume that Nixads are Faeries.

If you then consider abandoned game files to be a legitimate epistemological access to the world of Tamriel (which I do), then it appears that all or some Faeries are intelligent enough to have their own language and that the said language can be learnt by members of other races. Whether or not they understand other Tamriellic languages, is not known yet.

For further information about the intelligence of Faerie, their connection to magicka, and their possible hierarchy, you can also read this book from TES II.

If on the contrary, you consider that the -ad suffix, which in real world is used to name kinds of nymphs, is a clue that we should consider the Nixads to be a kind of Nymphs also in the universe of TES, then similarly, Nymphs are intelligent, have their own language (which bears similarities with both the Ayleidoon and the Faerian), and it is possible for a member of another race to learn their language. However, considering how far Nixads are from previous depictions of Nymphs, I personnally prefer to consider it as a Faerie.

Thanks a bunch! I only played Morrowind and forwards, unfortunately, and I'm always happy to learn more!

This is great. It is my headcanon for Nixads until proven otherwise. I hope ZOS has a lore article on the Gold Coast creatures planned to be released.

You're welcome. :-) I also discovered the series with Morrowind, but I spent some time lurking on the UESP, so I discovered a bit of the Daggerfall lore. - by the way, I added a comment about Nymphs in my answer.

I couldn't agree more about the lore article. I think they should bring the Loremaster's archive back - I hope they will. I had prepared five (big) questions about Minotaurs and one about Selkies. And I guess one could find more about Nixads.

Edit : Oh and now I have one more question about Selkies.

Oh yeah and you're gonna have a half-price sale on crowns so that we can get all of this good stuff, right?

RIGHT?
