I want to be able to collect a Dragon's skeleton and hang it in my House. Not like it's going to magically grow skin and come to life, pfft. There are all those Dragon mounds in Eastmarch and The Rift, why not, I can go excavate them up!

✭✭✭✭I was all prepared to come into this thread with a big NO but actually as a rare trophy find of a dragon bone for housing decoration purposes only, that would be OK with me.Edited by Epona222 on June 23, 2016 8:15AMGM - Ghost Sea Trading Co - NA PC

Well housing is coming in future content, the first Dragon Cult has already come and gone, there are mounds all over the place where they buried dead dragons in hopes to keep them down; there's even a few dragon skulls lying around in various zones.4 -

^ Basically, that. Where do people think the dragon mounds in Skyrim came from? Farted into existence by Alduin 5 minutes before the opening sequence?Edited by Epona222 on June 23, 2016 9:42AMGM - Ghost Sea Trading Co - NA PC

Well to be honest I don't think their bones are actually there. Could be Alduin summoned them from another point in time and just happened to use those mounds as a gateway...

a1i3nz✭✭✭✭Great idea OP.
I also like the idea of digging them up! If they could somehow add the ability to excavate, or otherwise unearth certain places or things, that would be awesome and add a great new adventure dynamic that I would love.0 -

✭As dragons are dormant in this time period, I could see the dragon bones, but how would you tell the difference between a dragon bone and a Titan bone?0 -
Enodoc✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭This would be interesting, but I get what @Pendrillion is on about; the bones have to stay in the mounds because they need to be there in 948 years time for Alduin to resurrect them. If you've excavated them now, they won't be there in the future.
Bits of skeletons from other places though, sure, that would be good.UESP: The Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages - A collaborative source for all knowledge on the Elder Scrolls series since 1995

They're called Dragon burial mounds for a reason. Whenever Alduin would reawaken a Dragon it's skeleton would climb out of it's mound and then the flesh would reappear on it. They were all buried after being killed in the War during the Merethic Era.CP2,100 Master Explorer - AvA Two Star Warlord - Console Peasant - Khajiiti Aficionado - The Clan

✭Yes.. it would be nice to battle a dragon in ESO now and then, but I don't know.. I thought that how can there not be dragons associated with elders scroll, but I think maybe the developers are trying to get away from Skyrim with ESO online. For now, I go to Dragon Age to get my dragon stomping fix. Lol!0 -

I made no mentions of battling dragons, they're already dead or hibernating in bone form; I don't know. You see them around, like that one graveyard burial in Grahtwood under the tree has a giant monstrous skull that I assume belonged to a dragon. As for the Titan head, who's going to fact check that is indeed a dragon or titan? Wink-wink.0 -

Yes, yes.. I know. I was just associating fighting dragons to your dragon bone/skull posting.0 -

If he did, then they crawled through the gateway without their insides, muscles, and hides. When you go with Delphine to the first resurrection you see Alduin summon the dragon, and the skeleton crawls up out of the mound. You watch him reform to a living dragon and talk to Alduin before he attacks you and Delphine and Alduin flies away.

I wondered about this... but what if there are more mounds now... and the reason that there are so few in the future is because we dug them up now. That way it becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy rather than a paradox.
ZOS add extra mounds in out-of-the-way locations (or places in the land of Skyrim that haven't become accessible yet) and give us the opportunity to plunder them. That way they will be gone in 948 years time and the map will fit with the one to come.1 -

Yeah, that would work. I guess it all comes down to how many burial mounds there are now, and how many there are later.

I think it would have to be done carefully... but I do think it could be done.
Also, if we are actually pulling the bones of these things out of the ground, it may actually help people to understand that Dragons are not (for the most part) active at this time and so asking for them as mounts is not the best idea

✭Considering that dragon skeleton pieces already exist in the game, I don't see a reason why we couldn't mount this on our wall when player housing comes out. Below is another post that shows a pic of a dragon skull in game.

DaniAngione✭✭✭✭✭There's actually a COMPLETE dragon skeleton somewhere... I'm not sure if I remember where.
...
I think that it's in Wrothgar, that quest line where you fight a Dragon Priest in the end? If I recall correctly there's a complete (and mounted) dragon skeleton behind him!
I remember taking several screenshots inside its belly.0 -
