The Selectives Lorecast

We did this cast just before we started on the Daedric Princes, and for some reason it didn't get uploaded at the time. So here it is, a COVID-inspired cast about diseases in Tamriel, featuring LOTS of speculation on how they actually work. Originally recorded around May 2020.

We've actually covered the Unreliable Narrator before, but only very briefly, and a lot of thought has happened since then, so we thought we should give it another shot. And honestly, we're going to be doing a few more fundamentally philosophical casts like this in the future as we lay the groundwork to explain why The Elder Scrolls is so different from other settings.

Today we answered a few questions that were brought up on our previous episode about the Psijic Order, and we had a long look at some of the new lore Elder Scrolls Online gave us concerning this enigmatic organization.

Elder Scrolls Online has brought us a wealth of new lore about our favorite Clockwork Basketball player, Sotha Sil! So we invited TrainWiz to come back and geek out with us about the Mystery of ALMSIVI.  Also, we'd like to help spread the word about TrainWiz's new kickstarter, "Underspace", which is shaping up to be the game Freelancer fans wish for.

Talos the mighty! Talos the unerring! Talos the unassailable! To you we give praise!  We are but maggots, writhing in the filth of our own corruption!

And as man, you said, "Let me show you the power of Talos Stormcrown, born of the North, where my breath is long winter. I breat...

Stendarr, "the apologist of men." Originally worshipped as Stuhn, the shield-thane of Shor. And yet, the Khajiit worship him as "S'rendarr". What's that about?

I think it's safe to say this is one of the best casts we've ever done. We were ready to write off Mara as kind of filler content, but that was a huge mistake. Never underestimate anything, folks.

Hey, here's a cast we did some time ago in May of 2019 that I completely forgot to upload. It's a cast about Vampires and Werewolves.

The first in a new series of the Lorecast, where we take deep dives into every Aedra in (at first) the Imperial lexicon. We're going alphabetically, which means we're starting with Akatosh, the Dragon God of Time and probably the Aedra we've learned the most about. ----- Join the Selectives Lorecast every other Saturday at 2pm Eastern Time at https://www.twitch.tv/rottendeadite Got a lore question...

Source of a thousand sperm jokes, sourced by a loved-upon hillock, and of course a force of mythology, divinity, and providence.

The Selectives are back, discussing Dunmer culture, which is uncharacteristic of us, I think we'll all agree. Not something we normally bring up in every cast we've ever done. Also we had a lot of audio problems in this cast, but this should be the last one with issues. Originally recorded in December 2018.
