Clearly, this boss is not a living creature. It should more accurately be described as a dragon SKELETON. A dragon should have skin, blood, and muscle. Furthermore, it is well known that dragons breathe fire. Thurvokun does not.

    It is also well known that gamers tend to over analyze everything.

    If you ever read or played ANYTHING pertaining to original Dungeons and DRAGONS, you would know that they can breathe many many different things.

    Yes, and as you say, not all the dragons breathe fire.

    But also in Skyrim, the dragon skeleton in Labyrinthian doesn't give the Dovahkiin its soul, so there's precedent for having reanimated bones that aren't actually a Dovah anymore.

    Now, as for whether Thurvokun qualifies, I'd have to replay Fang Lair, and that's not happening til the next ESO+ trial. I would suspect Thurvokun is supposed to be just a skeleton, as Alduin is the only one we've seen resurrect a dovah.

    Not sure if this is a meme at this point or genuine lore police activity.
    Cadwell, I seem to have run out of forks to give.

    His wife says he doesn't have 4 feet. But if he did, it could easily mistaken for a 5th leg.

    You and your childish justice. I'll rip it to pieces.
    Come on, it's showtime. A rain of blood like a volcano
    And now I'll blow all of you and you and you...
    All to tiny pieces. All to tiny pieces.

    Thurvokun was a dragon before he was slain by dragon hunters, but does its true end for dragons since they can return from death by command of Alduin?

    You fight dragon Thurvokun but reanimated by soul of necromancer Orryn the Black, the same goes to any other reanimated beings, because in TES, body, mind and soul are separable and replaceable by magic, did you forget that's you play as soulshriven for example, being without soul and body, your body was used by necromancers but its still yours body and have all yours abilities, your souls was stolen and only mind and strong will allow you create new body from chaotic creatia of Oblivion.

    The trolling is recursive. Each new one is mocking the previous.

    Actually it is a post referencing my post about making fun of the post about titans, which made fun of the post about wyverns. https://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/475415/please-stop-calling-summerset-salamanders-dragons#latest

    You're welcome.

    Working as intended.
