well, it is known as of now that they are an Ayelid Daedric Cult... as in they are ancient heartland high elves devoted to Mehrunes Dagon and the downfall of the Imperial Empire... of Cyrodiil

I read that they turn to smoke when they die. That dosen't sound like a mortal high elf.

and there are high elves in the Heartleand (Cyrodiil)... the high elves of the Heartland (most of whom were driven away or killed)... they are the Ayelids...

I'm sure some of the Ayelids converted to Imperial Ways and Imperial worship.

...I'm sure the majority of them didn't......
someone kills your parent snad your family and tries to force you and the survivors to be underlings and worship their religion....
if I was in that position... I would not submit to them....
I would go underground and start a guerilla war or something...

there must be SOME wimps in the population of course...

The Native American Indians converted to the white man's way eventually. The Native American Indians were not wimps though.

yeah.... with 90% dead to small pox, then most of the rest due to war, they found damn hard... and left a small population... but gradually grew in total consisting of 1% of the USA population... the USA ones that is...

the Ayelids were driven off and many massacred... but they didn't get their population 90% wiped out by disease... the just hid in ruins and woods and such


there is a BIG difference... the Native Americans suffered a widespread genocide.... the Ayelids suffered a large-scale uprising against them, which they survived.... the Ayelids are still 'strong'




1E 1

Camoran Dynasty of Valenwood is founded by King Eplear. This is the first written record in the Tamrielic Timeline. This new kingdom is later used as a buffer by the older kingdom of Ayleids (Wild Elves) of White Gold Tower in the Cyrodiil heartland, from the influence of stronger kingdom of Alinor (Summurset Isle). In time, the Ayleids become more independent and the White Gold Tower eventually rises as a new independent city-state.
1E 20

The oldest written record of the existence of the Isle of Artaeum. It tells the tale of the renowned Breton sage and author Voernet, traveling to the Isle of Artaeum to meet with Iachesis, the Ritemaster of the Psijics.

1E 143

King Harald, the thirteenth of Ysgramor's line, conquers Skyrim. The first kingdom of humans is founded on the northern part of Tamriel.
1E 221

King Harald dies at the age of 108 after a very long reign. King Hjalmer takes the throne.

1E 222

King Hjalmer dies and his youngest son, King Vrage the Gifted, becomes the next king.
1E 240

During the reign of King Vrage, Skyrim extends its wings. To the east, the Velothi area - which the Nord often call Dwemereth (or, more recently, Dunmereth), now known as Morrowind - is the land of the more established Dwemer and nomadic Chimer. This conquest is one of the epic clashes of the First Era. To the west, Skyrim conquers most of the area now known as High Rock, which was the territory of Altmer and Nedic peoples (the ancestor of Bretons and proto-Cyrodiils which have been already living there among the Elves). The arrival of the Nord armies upset the balance of power between the Nedic peoples and the Elves. Although the Skyrim has finally conquered the land, but a Altmer clan, the Direnni Clan, still exists in a part of High Rock, giving trouble to the Nordic Kingdom. Within a span of fifty years, Skyrim rules all of northern Tamriel, including most of present-day High Rock, a deep stretch of the Nibenay Valley, and the whole of Morrowind. This is known as The First Empire of the Nords.

1E 242

Alessia, later known as the Slave Queen, and her followers start a rebellion against the Ayleids' rule of White Gold Tower.
Source: Shezarr and the Eight Divines.
1E 243

With the help of the stronger human kingdom of Skyrim, the 'Alessian Army' eventually overthrows the Ayleids' rule over the Cyrodiil heartland. The remaining Ayleids seek refuge in Valenwood's Camoran Dynasty.


I hope that clears it up.... it was a large uprising, not a genocide... plenty of refugees fleeing to Valenwood

:brew: ....perhaps so...

actually you brought up good points, but anyhow, I appreciate it

[Harikari]

How about, instead of the mythic dawn, we deal with the suicide cult from mournhold? It could have easily spread to vvardenfell

[KuKulzA]

End of Times Cult....

yeah... one quest, Convince the leader to demonstrate the proper suicide ritual... ok he's dead now... the cult falls apart .... actually not a bad idea Harikari... maybe make a new thread for it?
like maybe the Temple is worried that the Cult has gotten onto Vvardenfell... and thy want it quietly stamped out.... but not with Ordinators.... thats too.... violent...

[Ebonyknight]

They are apart of the lore but what they gonna do, heres an example

Dont come up here ordinator im warning ill kill myself you big meany so go back downstairs im telling you i dare you to to try meee... ordinator walks up hes dead case solved

[KuKulzA]

my point exactly.... they are a suicide cult... only dangerous cause of their influence, not what they will do to you.... they might be a bit graphic... but they aren't gonna last that long.... suicide cults rely on support.... they rely on widespread support so it doesn't die out.... like a cancer, needs to keep feeding or it will burn itself out....
notice the leaders usually won't kill themselves unless they are doing it in a heroic situation or somethin

[Ebonyknight]

Personally i hated that stupid cult and wanted to kill the leader for his robe lol

he DID have a nice robe, maybe thats why he didn't stab himself.... don't wann ahave to make his children wash the blood off.... then he'd never be appreciated for being an ancestor.... and they might make him guard the tomb
hehehe
well, I think the inclusion of the Cult is ok.... but I always thought that if we do... it should have only 2 members... and you help them commit suicide...
