lol mudcrabs

It's honestly a shame that they have lore like 'pelinal was a time traveling terminator playing buddy cop with what was either a minotaur or just a fucking bull' and 'khajit went to the moon once' and 'eventually the clockwork city consumes the world and some guy cuts off his hands while making small talk with akhulakhan on the moon and then marries vivec' and then they just made a generic fantasy RPG about it.

OMG I would 100% play the hell outta an Elder Scrolls dating sim.

Vivec dating sim WHEN Bethesda! Stop making dungeons the dragoning for 5 minutes and give me that sweet sweet c0da deep lore.

Not gonna lie, I'd love to have met the falmer before they were falmer, and the dunmer as well. Fingers crossed for a future set of content that goes even further back in time.

It's unclear why they died off, I think, much like their relationship with mudcrabs or dreugh. I know the one Ald'ruhn is built around was killed in the 2e, which means they were contemporaneous with Velothi chimer, before they were transformed into the dumner.

If they did in fact go extinct because they were cursed to turn into mudcrabs, though, that would definitely explain why mudcrabs are such an angry pain in the ass all the time.
