A collab piece between two other TES artists here @hircines-hunter and their OC, Sifkni (the werewolf in the middle) and @lobo-inu character, Ember, at the top. Both were drawn by each artist respectively. I drew Hircine, Callum, and the background (and added some finishing touches).
I had this idea randomly and thought it’d be cool to collab with other Elder Scrolls fans who had werewolf OCs. Like Hircine calling them to a hunt, some more thrilled about it than others (Callum forced against his will and his werewolf form very excited to kill for one xD).
emojis oc ask game! These are unabashedly just the questions *I* want to ask about y’all’s ocs. Feel free to copy the entire question into the ask box, because this list is hefty and I wouldn’t mind not searching through it, hahaha. Remember to specify which oc(s) you’re asking about!

Been obsessed with werebeasts lately... This is Sashanji in his wereform, he's Roe's twin brother. Not sure if it makes sense for him to be a werelion in relation to the Bloodmoon questline, but then again who cares. I always thought it was a bit weird for khajiit to transform into basic ass looking werewolves but I get it from a lore friendly standpoint
summary of kh smell powers but I didn't bother, like, making this post look good or making sure my research was conclusive so just take it

Man I know that elder scrolls is a stupid series and all that but I really think they did concepts like orcs and dark elves mostly correct. More correct than a lot of franchises I’ve seen anyways.
I think dnd took until like this year to properly update drow and orcs or something? Like fantasy as a whole has a hard time shaking off this idea of evil races.
The elder scrolls approach to these guys from the beginning though has been that their cultures are just really different from the other cultures around them.
Like you can hang out in orc strongholds in Skyrim and spend the whole game around dark elves in Morrowind and they’re just regular people that have kind of extreme cultural norms. Dark elves are kind of rude to you when they first meet you but like in the way certain cultures are rude to outsiders at first until they get to know them. Orcs are rough around the edges but they’re smart and have a proud culture and if you can hold your own in a fight they’ll respect you.
And you see these people can blend pretty well into other societies. They join faiths their ancestors didn’t practice, they have jobs that people of their race wouldn’t stereotypically have, they have opinions about what other people assume about them, they have their own wrong assumptions about other cultures.
There’s this understanding somewhere in these games that people are shaped by their cultures but you also can’t predict how an individual will behave based on the culture that they came from. And I like that.
Listen, I love the elder scrolls. It is deep and wide and beautiful. It is also filled with cheese though.
TES worldbuilding does something I haven't really seen any other fantasy universe do, it foregoes a clear cut and thoroughly explained cosmology in favor of actually different religious interpretations of its universe. There's a basic outline to be gleamed from the overlap between the various theologies, but there's no definitive answer to a lot of questions.
Are Masser and Secunda normal moons? Are they holes in reality through which the light of Aetherius shines? Are they the sundered corpse of the demiurge? Are they normal moons but there's a secret third moon that only comes out during a double eclipse and *that* one is Lorkhan's body? They fought a war about this.
I think the fact that utter silliness and ridiculous notions can coexist with conplex ideological flaws and layers upon layers of behavioural patterns and anomalies makes of TES something far from simply realistic or simply stupid. It is the most realistic exploration of the paradoxes of our reality without directly quoting them. A potential vast source to learn, without the consequences of learning all of this in the real world.
