Weird Lore Question of the Day: Offsprings

Ard Tiarna de na Ulchabhan Buí

Ard Tiarna de na Ulchabhan Buí
Posted On: 08/22/2014 at 07:35 AM

As I've mentioned before I'm not a TES expert by any means.  Nor have I played any previous TES game.  Having said that here's my query:

Throughout the game you see several references to cross faction/species relationships.  In my travels I have yet to come across a half-orc, half-mer (yes I know orcs are mer but work with me), half-argonian or half-khajit.  (I'd assume that Breton, Nord, Imperial, Redguard are interchangeable enough that you wouldn't be able to notice a difference at first.)

Where are all the offsprings to those relationships?  Surely over the years someone has had to have some progeny.  If you travel to Shadowfen enough you'll even hear a Dunmer male exclaim, "I'm an uncle!"  to which an Argonian asks whats its name without getting an answer because the Dunmer can't pronounce Argonian names.  

Are they living in shame in remote outposts throughout Tameriel?  Are they communing with the inhabitants of the Island of Misfit Toys? (A domain of Sheogorath to be sure)

I'm not a lore buff but I can't get a really bad idea of a hairy lizard or a scaly cat out of my mind now.  Just umm....ewww. LOL!

Well if you cross an Argonian and a Khajit you get a Charr :)

Of course, the game does not let you have racial traits of any race other than the one you pick so say the mother is an elf and the father was a nord, you cannot make an elf and have nord traits.  However, there are ways to just RP it in there and have fun with it.  =)  I may not RP much in this game perse, but my choice of fighting style, armor, weapon, etc is based on what backstory and idea I have for the character even if no one ever learns what that is.

This reminds me of my TESO character, Orvilaf, who was a khajiit raised by nords who found a burning trading caravan, as he grew up he wondered why his brother didn't look all fuzzy and without a tail, same as all the other nords, and he speaks like a nord rather than the regular khajiit weird grammar :3
