Racism

Lexxypwns

Wonderful news!

I have met a beautiful high elf who loves me for who I am, regardless of my height. Our height difference is large, like my lovely lady.

I hope our story of true love inspires the rest of you in Tamriel to put racism aside!

It's really not your fault. Being short is simply a fact of life for you Bosmer. Racism is the perpetuation of inferiority, one reflecting their own concerns and really has little to do with the one they are marking. Though in some cases racism is real within the heart, most cases it is simply lack of confidence in ones self.
The fact that you Bosmer eat the folks you kill is a much more perplexing situation than your challenge of height. A thoughtful person would surely have focused on that instead.

Well my Dominion Altmer was called a "bumbling mammoth" by a Bosmer once, I think it was somewhere in Malabal Tor. She's still mad about it, it's not her fault Bosmer are so tiny! Bumbling mammoth, pfffttttt....

My Pact Altmer gets surprised sometimes with how tall Nords are, he's run into some around his height (he's on the tallest height setting). Since when could Nords be as tall as Altmer? Is everyone related to Lyris Titanborn now?

And then my Redguard's tiny, the shortest you can make a Redguard. Always made me laugh when everyone would make fun of Gwendis' height during Rivenspire, because he's only marginally taller than her! Needs to keep her around so she can take the short jokes .

I play a Nord and believe me, I'm all for the traditional Nordic isolationist view. It's just that the dark elves get SO OFFENDED. Nords are the only race the dunmer can't be like "WE MAKE SLAVES OF YOU, HAH." They have literally enslaved everyone else save for high elves.

That loss of power over the Nords really puts the dunmeri panties in a HUGE bunch. So any small mention of "Skyrim answers to no one >:/ " And they scream like "YOUFAWKINRACISTNORDBASTARD" because they can't do their usuall "yeah well dunmer butt effed you at one point or another -___- so hah."

That and 90% of the roleplay player base is ELVES. So many elves. All the elves >___>;; Elves for days. Excuse me while I embrace my Nordic culture and go slay a sabre cat and drink mead while acknowledging that it's awful and sickly sweet like bad jack daniel's Tennessee honey whiskey mixed with smith and forge cider and I DRINK IT ANYWAY >A>

To oblivion with all you weird elves *chugs mead*

Oh! But person why don't you go join a Nordic clan? There's a few of em around. Oh why yes question person, I am aware. But they don't accept Thieves :C It's like picking pockets is a forfeit of your culture unless you're a kahjitt. (OHHHHHHHHHHHHHBURN). Seriously though, soon as they notice the thief part they be like "COWARD, YOU BANDIT SCUM, GTFO" and I be like "but we're kinsmen Q__Q nord brother nyooo"

HAHAHAHA Bosmer complaing about being short and altmer on high horses us orcs need not not fear of such things for we are tall strong and and uneffected by such things as minor squabels between weeker races

Really? Are you sure about that? It's not like you have Altmer, Bosmer, Kahjiit, Nords, Argonians and Dunmer running around Orsinium rebuilding the city whilst Orcs are crying about constantly being invaded by Bretons and Redguards.

Have you noticed how all expansions so far apart from IC is based in Daggerfall Covenant.Looks like someone can't keep there house in order

Samsayia

If you asked me. High King Emeric is a TOTAL ***. The Daggerfall Covenant is the problem child of ESO world.

In the whole meeting of the three alliances, Jorunn takes on a giant daedric DRAGON, Queen Aryennn takes on a giant NAGA monster, and emeric just gets attacked by a very not nice storm atronach. After the fighting is over Jorunn and Aryenn are like "WHATEVS AVERAGE DAY FOR THE BADASSES /armscrossedemote"

And Emeric is over in his *** corner like WAH FINE I'LL SORT OF AGREE WITH YOU GUYS."

I spend forever scratching my head like HOW WAS IT A BRETON AND NOT A REDGUARD on the throne of the daggerfall?? Redguards....*** just stick like Sai Sahan's long lost brother of badassitude on the throne and things for the Daggerfall would be a LOT different.

OneWithTheShadows

Red Guards get so touchy about racism

goatlyonesub17_ESO

There's a mer somewhere in Orsinium who says she's leaving because "The orcs smell, the Nords are rude, and the Bretons. Gods, don't even get me started on the Bretons."

Krist

All other races are nothing compared to the Nords. Not me guys, just history.
All other races are either cursed...you cannot tell me eating who you kill is not a curse....or near extinction, through being killed off or mixed bred.

Then you have the tall, pure, broad shouldered Nords who have either been the conquerors or the last ones standing to save the continent from being conquered.

We're merry men of Skyrim
So sturdy and so stout
When the day is done
When it's time for fun
We'll drink and sing and shout!

You weak livered milk drinkers
Can let your throats run dry
Cause there's just one drink
That we will sink
Until the day we die

You can keep your filthy Skooma
It makes our bellies bleed
Cause when we raise our flagon
To another dead dragon
There is just one drink we need...

NORD MEAD!

After the long hard days
Of hunting and of war
Our throats are tired and thirsty
And our bodies drenched in gore

That Cyrodilic Brandy
Too fruity for these tongues
You can keep your fancy alto wine
It tastes like horker dung!

Balmora Blue tastes great to you
But here we like it plain
Just fill my mug
With the mighty jug
Of honey, heart and grain

Drinking mead in the halls of Whiterun
The maidens and the men!
We swig our brew
Until we spew
Then we fill our mugs again!

You can keep your filthy Skooma
It makes our bellies bleed
Cause when we raise our flagon
To another dead dragon
There is just one drink we need...

NORD MEAD!

THAT my friends, says it all. It isn't about racism, it is just the Nords are better than the others. *nod nod*

"Hey Wolf! Remember that time we had a conversation with that Malicath worshiping Orc about whether or not he was more dangerous than me?"
"Yes," He snarled back, "You said he was more dangerous than us! The werewolf!"
"Well yes, but he wasn't dangerous because he worshipped Malicath or because he was an Orc. In this world there are two kinds of people that are the most dangerous. Fanatics and stupid people."
"I'll grant you stupid people." Wolf agreed, "But fanatics?"
"Fanatics only see the world in black and white. They only see their path and to them theirs is the right way and all others are wrong. That's a dangerous way to view the world. It limits you. It puts you in a cage you don't even know you're in and puts others in cages that can't hold them."
"It is better to see the world in contrasts than in black and white. Contrast let's you compare your worldview with others and see not only the difference's but the similarities as well."
"I hate cages,” Wolf growled. “Remember when the Order of the Silver Dawn put us in a cage?"
"Oh ya," I laughed at the memory, "Remember how we escaped?"
"You pointed over his shoulder and said 'Hey look! A distraction!'. Then when he looked away you ripped off the hand holding the key. The look on his face was priceless!”
"I think that only worked because he was surprised I could talk in wolf form," I said.
Wolf snorted, "Anyone who falls for that deserves what they get."
"My point is it doesn't matter who you worship or what you are. What matters is how you treat others."
"Also, how stupid you are," Wolf showed his teeth in a way that was definitely not a smile, "Tasty, tasty stupid people..."

"He's saying that we shouldn't help the Dunmer? Hnnneh! Like a Nord would ever turn down a fight."

Not for me. I've only ever created one elf character, and I got rid of her and replaced her with a Khajiit. I actually don't like elves because I got major thrills from killing arrogant Thalmor in Skyrim.

As a argonian i understand your struggle elf i have been insulted in nearly every conner of the Pact regions i plan to leave very soon and see what Tamriel has in store for me. I hope your journey gets better friend untill next time

You elves and elf lovers disgust me. Anyone of you who I capture I will trim off the tips of your ears so that every time you see your reflection you will see the race of those who took away your pathetic "mer" pride. The children of your villages will laugh at you and call you human, you will never see be accepted back into your vile hive. All elves deserve death and if you fight for the elves you'll die like an elf.

Cat_with_Plates

Argonians and Dunmer are not very kind towards this one. When will they learn that Khajiit is on their side!

I looked over at Wolf and shook my head sadly, "Wow. Some people have some serious issues.”
"I agree," Wolf said solemnly, "Can we go slaughter and eat someone now?"
"What? No! We don't slaughter people!"
"Yes we do. We kill people all the time!" Wolf protested.
"Yes! But only bad people! Bandits, worm cultists, slavers, people who talk in the theater during the play! Actual terrible people. And let's not forget the fact that I never eat them."
"You're a Bosmer." Wolf grumped.
"City Bosmer! A civilized, non eating enemies Bosmer! Just because a race did bad things in the past it doesn't mean they do it now. All people from all cultures have done terrible things in their past. We must remember the acts of tragedy and suffering from our past in order to avoid repeating them in our future. Acknowledging that suffering and offering forgiveness to others will encourage us to move forward and look to the future.”
“So... should we... forgive slavers and... stop killing them?” Wolf asked in a confused tone.
“Oh hell no,” I said immediately, “I love killing slavers.”
“But…”
“I offer them one chance to let everyone free and when they inevitably refuse,” I grinned, “Axe to the face.”
“Oh, okay then.” Wolf said happily, “ I like killing slavers too. Mmmm, tasty tasty slavers.”
