Dunmer

Physical Description


Art by Kokomiko

The Dunmer, also known as Dark Elves, are the ash-skinned, typically red-eyed elven peoples of Morrowind. "Dark" is commonly understood as meaning such characteristics as "dark-skinned", "gloomy", "ill-favored by fate" and so on.

History

The Dunmer and their national identity, however, embrace these various connotations with enthusiasm. In the Empire, "Dark Elf" is the common usage, but among their Aldmeri brethren they are called "Dunmer". Their combination of powerful intellects with strong and agile physiques produce superior warriors and savants. On the battlefield, Dunmer are noted for their skill with a balanced integration of the sword, the bow and destruction magic. Dunmer live two to three times as long as humans; with a 200-year-old Dunmer being old and a 300-year-old Dunmer being very, very old.

Personality

In character, they are grim, aloof, and reserved, as well as distrusting and disdainful of other races. Dunmer distrust and are treated distrustfully by other races. They are often proud, clannish, ruthless, and cruel, from an outsider's point of view, but greatly value loyalty and family. Despite their powerful skills and strengths, the Dunmer's vengeful nature, age-old conflicts, betrayals, and ill-reputation prevent them from gaining more influence.

gollark: This is quite interesting. It seems to be reusing basically the same image for "fox" here, down to the location, and switching out the backgrounds.

gollark: I got it to work by downloading it from the browser, copying the URL, and copying my cookies. Google really is extremely.

gollark: Also, I can't seem to actually download any of the checkpoints - `gdown` says permission denied and when I use an actual Drive API key it says "download quota exceeded".

gollark: Maybe it would work better if the text used for training was closer to CLIP's dataset?

gollark: It looks like a really cool image editing tool if it works that well in general.
