Skyrim 🏺 Altmer Gods EXPLAINED 🏺 The Pantheon of the High Elves - Elder Scrolls Lore 

"The Altmer are the oldest race inhabiting Tamriel" The Hist : 🌳👁️👁️🌳

While the podcasts are fun I can't always find time for them these shorter more focused videos are perfect for me thanks for another great addition

'Auriel's Ascension' is the one of the most beautiful tracks from Oblivion. It feels so pure

Don't forget a video on the Reachmen's pantheon for this series. :)

*"Ah, the Aldmeri Pantheon, truly the greatest of the Et'Ada. May Auriel and all his Elven Children bath in Anu's Everlasting Illumination, and escape the tragic trap that is the Mundus"*

The only thing I miss about my old job is the 2 hours of highway slab time I had every day. That's when I'd throw a fudge muppet video on that I can just zone out listening to and just cruise and think. Gosh I loved that. I don't even give myself a single hour a day anymore. Gosh those were the days.

Amazing video. A+ It's nice to see a High Elf video that isn't full of bashing for a change!

You should do videos about warfare and how each race historically makes it armies. Any information on their military, use of magic, war beasts, historic battles and changes. As well as things like how previlent war is and what scale it gets to.

OMG YAY!!!!!!! I remember requesting this topic like over a year ago in a comment on one of Drew's videos, but I am _just as thrilled_ with Scott being the one to indulge my fascination with this pantheon as I would've been had Michael or Drew done it. Thank you, Scott!! Much love, brother, and I hope you guys have started planning your MILLIONTH SUBSCRIBER PARTYYYYY 🎉😎🎂🎊🙏 lmao

This is the single best lore video I, as a fan of The Elder Scrolls series, have seen on the internet. The creation story as told by altmer, is the most thought-through creation story perspectives available to the player and honestly, I love to hear about it over and over again.

I was always curious about the Altmer pantheon since we never got to see it in any great detail in the games. All Altmer content is welcome since too many people like to hate on them.

Maybe I'll roleplay an Altmer paladin, collecting all the artifacts of the Elven pantheon Auriel's Bow and Shield, the staff of Magnus and maybe Volendrung

I literally said "ooooh!" out loud when I saw the notification for this, so I think I'm going to enjoy :')

Have You Heard Of The High Elves

Truly a blessed day. Thanks a ton for all the incredible work, yet again!

Funny how most of the elven gods were mortals, but the Altmers dislike Talos because men can't not assent to godhood.

Thank you for everything you guys do! Love any attention we can get for the Altmer!

Your lore videos are incredible. They never get the views they deserve. I appreciate what you guys do so much, you have made the world of elder scrolls so much more alive for me, thank you.

Great video Scott! This is such an interesting aspect of the lore. I hope the main story of TES6 focuses on the Thalmor and the Psijic Order.

Wow. Now I have finally heard of the high elves

Could you do the Psijics' pantheon and ancient Falmer as well?

I love curling up and watching one of these lor videos. Love the great work guys

Thank you so much for driving into this topic.

Can't get enough of that Elder Scrolls lore, thank you!

I'm so glad when you guys use clips from ESO. It has such great landscapes that you should use them more!

Another awesome lore video from the boys!

You had my full attention the moment that beautifull Oblivion exploration music reached my ears♥️

Ooh thank you! I am looking forward to these! This one was interesting 😊

Thank you for a great vid on my fav topic !

I searched for a Video quite a while already explaining it nice to get one from you

I've never understood how the god of time didn't come from the force of change, when time is literally like the measure of everything changing.

Excellent as always! Can’t wait for the Bosmer run down.

Getting real close to 1m subs. Kudos guys. You deserve it

Yes. MORE OF THIS! Please, lots more of this.

You guys are so close to 1 million, I knew you’d get there!! Here’s to 2 million 🎉

So almost every story says lorkahn "tricked" the other gods but he never lied in any of those stores, the gods just got cold feet and wanted to back out of his creation, it sounds more like the rest of them being petty than shor being a trickster. Elders scrolls has many very selfish gods

Great analysis video! Thanks for uploading!

I JUST got super into pantheons thank you! Honestly this is the first time I actually understood the reason for Veloth's exodus/Trinimac's transformation, and why Altmer would hate Dunmer so much.

Great to have the FM crew back to their craft; great content creators. :)

you guys are doing great so close to 1 mill!

I'm with Fudge Muppet on the disappointment at Summerset looking like the Disney castles. I was expecting the castles made of shining glass like the armor sets.

Looking forward to the next one!

You guys have inspired me to give ESO another try (first two times didnt take 😤) with all these amazing visuals and the expanded lore. You should totally start a Fudgmuppet guild! I think it would be the turning point for me in this game being part of a guild that respects the lore as much as I do! 😎

Yasss ! I'm obsessed with the Altmer, skyrim did them so dirtyyy

I just want to say. The visuals. Just stunning.

You should make a video on how ghost work in Tamrial. It's something I've been wandering about. But there dosen't seem to be much on it.

Super Excited for this Series!

OH I ASKED ABOUT THIS AWHILE AGO. Time to drop everything and listen.

My favorite race. Long live the Aldmeri Dominion!.

I would love to know more about the Psijic Order. They sound very interesting.

Already love this series

Also my favorite part about skyrim! Super stoked guys!!

Awesome video bro

Great way to start the day 😌!

I love this series already 😍😍😍

Awesome video, just started an Altmer who'll be a Battlemage wielding powerful destructive magic as well as Atronachs and flesh spells

New series eh? Oooooooh, hype af for this boys!!

Great topic for a series

excited for this!

Theology a la the Greek word Theos refers to a single god or often referred to as "The One True God", so theology would've really apply to almost all the pantheons of Tamriel.

Also if lorkahn had his way and none of the gods backed out. How "limited" would this world be? They have magic because of magnus leaving early, would that potential universe just be really mundane and without alot of "magical" aspects?

This is gonna be a good video

This is going to be a good video series

I love the deep low and slow voice ❤️

I feel like this series has potential:)

It is videos like this that sometimes makes me hope I find a genie and can wish myself into the Elder Scrolls universe.

Do we get to the Cloud District very often? Oh, what am I saying... Of course we do, we're subscribed to the best channel on RU-vid.

This is like gnosticism. The material world being a prison.

It's a bit of a strange plot hole(?) that the ancient Falmer supposedly had a temple to Syrabane, according to Gelebor, if the Thrassian plague happened over two thousand years after the Falmer rule of Skyrim was over.

You guys should do a video over Darloc Brae he was very fascinating khajiit that isn’t super well known

How trinimac really died. Dark elfs left trin follows boetha shows up and says "do you recognize vvardenfels right to exist?" Aurel "im not touching this" trin "no i dont" maphala azura "loud gasp did you hear him get em boe!"

i know more about the elder scrolls world because of this channel than i do about the real world

Imagine believing Nirn was a trap. (this message is brought to you by Nirn is a test gang)

Could you make some builds built around each of the elven gods

Is it possible to make an avatar of Sithis build or a build where you roleplay as Sithis given an actual body to spread his goals or influence??

I really hope we don’t have to wait decades before we get to play in the home of the Altmer. Also what’s the background story for the snow elves then? Were they Aldmer and if so why did they leave?

What if creation was a Dragon break? Making all creation myths in elderscrolls equally true?

Thanks to the video I've realised that the Altmer in most cases aren't that bad they are just extremest.

LOVE IT

The best part of waking up

Getting close to 1 million

I had a premonition Fudgemuppet had posted and I was correct

i like your videos is it possible to do a video about the khajiit pantheon?

More lore from the lore boys 🔥

i really like the creation story but i have a hard time piutting it in my head, i wish someone made some sort of comic or video explaining with icons and stuff cause im a visual learner

Of you ever run out of content for elder scrolls before tes 6 comes put you should branch out into forgotten realms lore

He’s so close to 1M

Wow nearly 1M abos

Thanks for this episode! I've been annoying you guys in the comments I'm sure with my complaints about how you guys are too biased towards Dunmer lore/religion haha. From the perspective of the Altmer, if they are truthful, then you can see how the Altmer actually have a fascinating story and task in Tamriel...they aren't merely LOTR imports. And if true, you can also totally see how they would think the other races are not only inferior, but walking abominations associated with Lorkhan's treachery or Daedric influence. This is also why I find Malacath and Meridia two of the most interesting Daedric Princes...as they're not really..."Daedric" in the typical sense. They were both originally related in some way to the aldmer themselves insofar as Malacath was Trinimac (champion of all elves) and Meridia a follower of Magnus and who like the elves did not want Tamriel to be created after discovering Lorkhan's plot. Meridia, in this way, should have somewhat of a natural affinity for Altmer elves and their goals...

Truly glad that we got a double video today! I’ll be commuting to get vaccinated so on the way there I’ll be listening since I’ve downloaded this video and the latest podcast. Keep up the great work! I hope you reach a Million Subs soon!

*is that Trevor Lawrence (QB of the Jaguar's) in the thumbnail?*

What if oriel and laurkan are the same guy with oriel being the soul of laurkan which was the body. What he did may just be tried to kill the world he created and getting back his powers by separating his soul and trying to ascend by killing his body which refused to die and became the sacrifice of the world for the world to live while oriel escaped and Transcended time and is trying to kill everything by making them age to recover his divine power which leaks into the world as mana thus creating a balance of life (given by laurkan) and death (brought by oriel with time).

Very interesting

I thought the title read: "The Pantheon of the High Fives"

The Old Ways that the Psyjiiks follows explains why they took away the Eye of Magnus and saying that men and elves alike were not ready for such power.

What I find interesting is that all the elves are extremely self absorbed with their race. Like the Thalmor thinking they are the best, the Dunmer are very nationalist, the Orsimer think that they are the best warriors. The only ones that I cant seem to find or infer is the Bosmer being self absorbed

I wish we had more on Trinimac, not the least statues. It is tiring to always see him 100% equated to Malacath. One thing I don't understand about the Trinimac/Malacath connection, is why some orcs continue to follow Trinimac. Since the orcs are descendants of the elves that "smeared the Boethiah Trinimac feces over themselves" (no matter how literally you want to interpret that), meaning they followed this new form Malacath... how does it make sense that some *orcs* follow Trinimac? Wouldn't they still be golden-skinned elves?

Have you High of the heard elves?

This place isn't above the spirit world but the spirit world is another trap the Spirit of nern was a book in Skyrim that said something like that, and now the opportunity for whatever is next is possible or something like that I like how Elder Scrolls has changed a lot it makes me feel like real life is a dream I wish I knew the origins of man because the truth is stranger than fiction

Auriel protects
