It can also refer to when the Alessian order tried to remove the Mer aspect of Akatosh and basically drove him insane which also broke the dragon. It’s probably why Alduin is his own entity and not just Akatosh at the end of time, with there being three main aspects of the Dragon god that being Auriel, Akatosh, and Alduin the beginning, middle, and end.

Personally I don’t think Pelinal Whitestrake and Marukh went far enough, remove all mer.

Fair enough. Prolly doesn’t help I was actively melting my capacity to properly articulate the utter madness that is Michael Kirkbride mainling a philosophy book and then reading Lovecraft because I was slowly gassing myself because I put a tad bit to much bleach in my water bucket while cleaning up cat piss.

This is unironically a great overview and simplification of CHIM within the Elder Scrolls setting. One in which I am fundamentally incapable of making because I have been utterly corrupted by Morrowind shitposts around the concept, IE a photoshop of Astolfo from Fate with Dagoth Urs head asking if that is CHIM.

Which in all honesty leaves a lot open for Bethesda to bring them back in some capacity. Between Dragon Breaks, Chim, and literal time travel there’s a lot they could do not even getting into the other metaphysics and metamagics in the setting.

For those who haven’t deep delved EUSP I shall list what the three things I listed implies.

Dragon Breaks, a dragon break is what happens when time becomes non linear the fun thing is that it can be both retroactive and postactive. The ending of Elder Scrolls 2 Daggerfall is sometimes theorized to have caused a dragon break so massive that it basically rewrote the setting with its shockwave. This is admittedly just an in universe way of explaining retcons.

Chim, basically a character in the setting achieves awareness that they are infact fictional and becomes effectively a god. Tuber Septum achieved partial Chim caused a dragon break and removed the jungles of Cyrodil from history. Also Vivec achieved Chim and Dagoth Ur fucked up the process without removing himself entirely.

Time travel, basically what it says on the tin. Fun fact Pelinal Whitestrake was from a different timeline and was basically the Terminator.

No just a point of irritation. Pretty sure the area I forgot to note my gender in was where I was describing myself as looking like id steal an mrap. Pretty sure I forgot that due to a cat launching himself into my gut at top speed, his name is Barca and he inherited none of his namesakes intellect.

Motherfucker. Didn’t realize I accidentally forgot a word, I’m a dude and not in the gender neutral way either. I was making a shit post about mine fucken appearance.

I can assure you that it can be done with relative ease, for example I usually wear cargo pants, anime/metal/old CRPG tshirts, with a Czech military field jacket. I have all the pockets and make it work damned well, but I’m also five foot five and look like someone who would try to steal an mrap if I found one unprotected so your mileage may vary.

Cops, paramedics, and fight fighters are all inherently reactive forces. While more could be done for them to be proactive outside of the fire department most of those proactive measures are outside of their perview.

Yes I’m pretty sure 75 percent of this site is autistic. Let me have my stupid joke.

Fallout 2 personally. Was moreso making a joke about how the Fallout community is like 25 percent autists.

This is the most autistic thing you could’ve done. On a related note on autism, which Fallout game is your favorite

Well the green knight/ green man is famous for having his head chopped off. But also I hate autocorrect.

Honestly Terry Pratchett just went back to the roots with his elves, elves and fae are basically a collection of minor spirits to gods in their own right on a mythological level they also run the mortality spectrum from the being downright nice like the green knight/green man to actively hostile to all humans. Similarly dwarves were seen as mountain gods/spirits, frankly pre-christian Europe and even post Christian Europe was so steeped in animism which is why you get so many things under such weirdly broad umbrellas.

IDK why but the dude in the background sitting in the plane like that is cracking me up.

Hey now dont do my boy Saint Nicholas dirty like that, he was an Anatolian Greek. The Turks were still firmly in central Asia during his lifetime, though Anatolian Turks are a mix of the of the nomadic Turks and Anatolian greeks it’s one of those things where the distinction is notable. It’d be like calling Vercingetorix French, like it’s not technically wrong from a regionalist perspective and his people did help form the French but it’s still wrong on a lot of levels.

Also fun fact Saint Nicholas punch Arius in the face at the council of Nicea. Also his bones are now leaking and have been for awhile, though it’s probably two different things being merged into the same myth, they used to put certain oils into sarcophaguss back in his lifetime and it probably became a pilgrims tradition later on and his modern sarcophaguss in Italy probably works as a condenser for water.

The Latin and Greek speaking parts of the world probably had a word for purple by that point. Remember the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes who would evolve into the medieval Anglo-Saxons were from around modern continental Denmark to about the modern Hanover region. This area didn’t really have the color purple all that much and frankly speaking Britain ain’t much better on that front, probably why it took till around the viking age to get a word for it since that’s when pan European trade started to pick up again to a large enough degree for purple dyes to start getting to Britain on a regular basis.

It’s because it’s a less distinct element from blue than red is to yellow. It’s kinda like how someone can tell the difference between a heavy machine and a pistol but they may not be able to tell the difference between a rifle and a shotgun.
