Is Bel in Morthal supposed to not be wearing any clothes?

I am fairly certain this is just a weird bug, it's amusing nonetheless

    They probably ran out of ideas (as per usual) and stole the idea from the fairytale about the "emperors new clothes". Just like I noticed they stole tinkerbell (nixads) from Disney. I'm looking for more as I play again.

    Come on, I'm all for calling ZOS on their crap but this is overreaching lol 😂

    Disney's your only reference for creatures like a pixie (or fairies or wtv)?

    Do a very quick search for pixies and you'll see they pre-date Disney's by almost 100 years...

    At this point, it's public domain. So many RPGs I've played over the past 20 years have em in some way.

    For the emperor's clothes thingy though I can't comment.

    You do realize disney has never done an original story right? Everything they have ever done is based on fairy tales, cultural myths/legends or (in the case of tinkerbell) from a book which drew upon those sources.

    You see something similar or familiar and assume its a stolen idea?

    It's another Naked Nord reference, probably.

    Hey now, I saw a patch of grass in Elsweyr that looked like my front yard. I think they’re stealing my ideas too :trollface:

    I wouldn't say Nixads look like a fairy Tinkerbell. Have you ever looked at one up close? They look vicious and would probably rip into your arteries given a chance 😏

    Even if the idea comes out of an fairy tale, there is nothing wrong with it. I actually like it a lot if they get referenced and the emperors new clothes is a very nice story with a nice moral, sadly in todays time many of them get forgotten. About fairies pixies and so on, they existed for multiple 1000 years already in many different forms and shapes in the mythology of many different cultures, like you know dragons.

    I noticed him and tried to initiate dialogue with him as I assumed that there would be some amusing story behind his lack of garments :)
    But alas no such thing, sometimes the comedy dialogues that appear in eso are a breath of fresh air!

    Leave him as is, it wouldn't be Skyrim without a naked Nord running around.

    ...I just wish they would finally give all those "naked nords" some proper medieval-style linen loincloths rather then those all too modern looking undies...

    ...or maybe something a bit more "cimmerian"...

    ...or even a even more "eastern" style:

    It would make for a much more immersive experience, and also make it clear that the character is supposed to be unclad ratrher then merely missing their attire data...

    Figures, I remember reporting this in the first week of pts when I saw him, lol. I think there was another (maybe few more?) npc that was naked as well.

    Morthal is a bath house town if I remember correctly... so the Naked Nord would fit in properly. lol
