EldElder Scrolls Lore: Ch.37 - Daedric Prince Vaermina

[@Quicksilver_Cookie]

Daedra Princes turn mortals into their playthings. Sheogorath turns other Daedra Princes into his playthings :) Gotta love it.

[@thethirdnightingale686]

And they leave him alone because of it, too! Have you realized that in the lore, there have been little to no times that one of the other Princes/Princesses (let's admit it, we've all assigned genders to each and every one of 'em :3) actually went and said, "Yo, Sheo, got a proposition for yah.", instead he always came to them. It's kind of like my friend group (myself included) and the entire school: "Sure, we'll pick fights with each other all the time but those five over there? They're insane, and they're obsessed with Skyrim, our two least favorite things. Avoid them at all costs." Us: "Hey! Hey guys! Hey! We found this cookie on the ground! It's probably only been stepped on a few times! Wanna share? :D"

[@Spartan11117777]

It’s their Fault they created him lmao 😂

[@ReformedSauron]

In Greek mythology most chaotic stories begin with "Zeus was horny". In Elder Scrolls lore every chaotic story begins with "Sheogorath was bored".

[@Aarkan1000]

I've noticed Sheogorath likes to make bets with other Daedric Princes and always wins each one.

[@artski09]

i want a rebet

[@arcticshocked]

***** because silence is deafening. and that my friend always leads to madness.

[@Balinux]

Yeah, the mad god seems to keep his fingers in a lot of pies.

[@Balinux]

***** Let's hope not.

[@BCMGameplays]

He also made a bet with hircine that they both get one creature or something to battle to the death and hircine made a brute of a beast and shegorath as usual thought of a butterfly. In the battle the beast tore itself apart trying to get the butterfly because it landed on its nose therefore the butterfly won.

[@Chadw1cKed]

8:04 "Darius' throat was slit" that was one hell of an understatement.

[@impossiblegamer8499]

+ChadwicKed 0_o OMFG yeah... They need knew glasses... Damn

[@CelticAugur]

+Impossible Gamer *new

[@mikemarks6136]

i cracked up

[@AngelCakes1997]

I think a slit throat was the sentence but everyone hated him so much that the executioner just kept cutting until he went right the way through.

[@urbanbang5513]

ChadwicKed yyyyyuuuuuuuppppppppp

[@2KXMKR]

Very cunning yet very simple. Leave any man in silence and without answers and he is certain to turn mad.

[@Merkage500]

Precisely what happen to cicero, before he was a cold killer than he took on the persona of the jester he killed last laughing just like him.

[@soarrefly]

Especially the attention seeking type

[@blackvial]

@@soarrefly anyone who is subjected to silence like that will go mad

[@wolfieinu]

Moral of the story: never bet against Sheogorath. See also: Sheogorath versus Hircine. This guy's a legend.

[@blueshit199]

It blew my mind when I learned golden saints and dark seducers weren't originally serving Sheo, he just 'won' them in a gamble with other daedric lords :D

[@kabbfixwow4343]

Sheogorath should be a youtuber.

[@X-Bones]

If you don't feel like reading the comments then let me summarize them for you. -People talking about how awesome Sheogorath is -Stupid Quagmire jokes that aren't funny

[@BlackLegion12621]

Not even Clavicus Vile would make a deal with Sheogorath.

[@khornethebloodgod4155]

Peter Hanson I've tried though.

[@joshuamoothedan2611]

+Sheogorath my Lord! you have returned! though I see you willing me as a bug I wish to ask of you you a question

[@slendermurph]

There are 16 accords of madness. He probably has, we just have not seen them in game yet

[@Artofficial1986]

If trolls worshiped a Deadric Prince... it would be Sheogorath

[@Artofficial1986]

+Legate Sevan Telendas Yeah you are right

[@flynnt77]

Artofficial Sheogorath is an extradimensional aspect of Kek.

[@thedopdeity]

So, never make a bet against Sheogorath.

[@RaineV1]

That seems to be a reoccurring theme in these stories. Sheogorath always shows up to troll the other daedra.

[@thedopdeity]

The mad prince outsmarts the others. Hilarious.

[@annanewell3951]

RaineV1 he is a damn troll .____. with that suit and that face

[@wulf_bearclaw]

Anna Newell Watch Gamer Poop: Skyrim (#13). It features Sheogorath the daedric prince of douchebaggery disguising himself as a women and trolling an argonian LOL :P

[@flowingfireandice]

Unless you're azura.

[@purpleboye_]

Sheogorath. God of winning bets by doing nothing. He drove King Pelagius mad the same way.

[@jaketucker2559]

And then drove him to sanity the same way

[@CyrixOkami]

That is how you win wars, do nothing lol 😆

[@njintau]

Sheogorath, Daedric Troll Prince of Madness.

[@Warlady21]

+njintau WORSHIP HIS INSANITY! And lets get some cheese out. For he is insane, and very well dressed.

[@athena2483]

Daedric Prince of Douchebaggery

[@GabrielVitor-kq6uj]

Sheogorath should be a brazilian huehue trolling over the limits

[@michaelpettersson4919]

Sheogorath may be a madman but he is a smart madman.

[@MrKrumpetz]

I like the design of Vaermina in this episode.

[@scarjaisero4716]

Same

[@Nighthawk6827]

I actually like this model of Vaermina. It basically personifies her as someone who is a dream weaver.

[@thethirdnightingale686]

Yeah, all the other depictions are... well, to be blunt, all the other depictions are ugly. (No offense, Bethesda, you've made up for it with Shadowmere's model! Love it to Oblivion and back! X3)

[@madscientistshusta]

Dude these have gotten so epic,it's like a quality Netflix series now lol

[@darenpaz4264]

It seems like Sheogorath has dooped all other deadric princess at one point or another. Lesson to the wise, don't fuck with him lol

[@rustie115]

D. P. duped* you fucking doop

[@darenpaz4264]

Not even my first language :'(

[@Nyghtking]

Sanguine is on my list of favorite Daedric Princes, his quests are pretty fun. Sheogorath has the number one spot though.

[@ericmcintyre2446]

Sheogorath SUCKS!

[@artski09]

him and sheogorath are my best drinking buddies Riding around the hunting ground on a Mammoth drinking and playing with the wabajack

[@Nyghtking]

No one knows the minds of men better then the god of madness and no one knows the hearts of men better then the god of dark impulses.

[@artski09]

***** you dare insult my drinking buddy

[@Nyghtking]

I would party with both just to see what would happen. All I know is there would be cheese, booze, and naked people.

[@GabrielVitor-kq6uj]

Hail Sheogorath ! Mad King of Skeever's horns and salmon's cheese

[@khornethebloodgod4155]

Is it just me, or is the title a bit messed up? Brilliant video still, of course

[@thethirdnightingale686]

Well, look on the bright side (just like I never, ever do... XD), at least now we can assure that it's humans making this and not evil robots hiding on Mars!

[@Prosaic0]

[@GoldLuminance]

The daedric prince of being your best friend xD

[@alexanderstilianov]

This is blasphemy! This is madness! Madness? THIS IS HIGH ROCK

[@tylerjaynes822]

*Wabbajack's the hole and turns into a tree*

[@matthewwheeldon668]

I shout this is sparta instead of fus ro da

[@Bigmi1ke]

Going back, it looks like no ones seen this in years. I remember when I was in high school, I’d listen to these almost every day. Good times and sad to see the channel die

[@matthewcecil8552]

The asymmetric blinking @2:30 was epic... Shoddy Cast's attention to detail is unparalleled.

[@InvictvsNox]

"Without madness, there are no dreams." Amazing story.

[@DarkLordIggy]

I'd love to hear the narrator read The 36 Lessons of Vivec. Just sayin'.

Mortal: exists Daedra betting against each other: "we are about to end this man's whole career"

[@nathanarabie5743]

Never make bets with sheogorath, you will always lose.

[@EariosRandomness]

Remember that time he made the first instruments by killing a woman and turning her body parts into things like drums and lutes?

[@derpysquid4194]

This is the story of Edgar Allen Poe

[@benthomason3307]

Except that people didn't start to like Poe's work until after he had already died.

[@ntmbro]

these are so well presented. what ever you are spending on art and the voice over is worth the cost

[@dytallixx1268]

this series is soo well done. amazing editing; keep up the good work :)

[@roigergoololo3966]

Gotta love how in his wagers with other Daedra, Sheogorath does absolutely nothing and ends up winning because of it😂

[@LIVINGnEXILE]

i love this series. your writing is reaching greatness, and your visual story telling is nothing short of amazing. keep up the good work

[@Vulture153]

Reminds me of the tale of Job :D A wager between godly creatures that leads to the devastation of a person

[@lolitabowen7414]

Yea I was thinking the same thing. I wonder if it's based on it.

[@kashi294]

I'm so glad this is back. I had a feeling something was missing at the end of each week and only now do i realize it was the joy of being able to watch these. Thank you guys for all your hard work and effort!

[@ArynosValinir]

I miss this version of the lore videos from this channel.. Brilliantly composed and not filled with a forced subplot that takes up 80% of the video with some lore facts thrown hastily in..

[@OohYeahThatGuy]

''throat was slit'', his whole head flew off! XD

[@UltimaOmegaZero]

This channel might as well be named: "History Channel for Video Games".Good work.

[@ethandonnelly1973]

Was that a fallout four deathclaw in the scene with monsters everywhere? All I could make out was the claws and the chest.

[@KCDarkRanger]

Their he is again, Sheogorath the eternal teacher of deadra. The one who least belongs and is never welcome, yet always fits well and leaves his piers ever more clever. I do adore the writing of his lore!

[@59hawks]

Its better when you realize that Sheogorath is the result of a bunch of deadra princes gaining up against the deadric prince of order. They made the worst mistake of their existence that day.

[@arayagerardo]

@@59hawks you need to write that again. I don't understand what you're saying.

[@59hawks]

@@arayagerardo i don't know what is hard to understand The deadric prince of order Jyggalag was one of the most powerful deadra, so he ganged up on by all the other deadric princes as they feared his strength, and he was turned into the deadric prince sheogorath. Sheogorath now endlessly trolls the other deadric princes.

[@BladeofmoonlightKitto]

so Darius made a genre called, "Vaerminic Folk Metal" which probably would sound like (Morbid Angel - Desolate Ways). Lyrics would be stuff like, "Through the eyes of shadow I've seen the truth, like the Dwemer of past we pray for our end, for under the wraith of Vaermina our fate is in her hands". If I had a lute I'd make this song lol

[@kirkcannon4704]

I like that sheogorath is the most powerful of all the deadra, but don't give a fuck

[@artski09]

maybe ?

[@Neelmay13]

True.

[@BlueBD]

Well he was originally Jyggalag (prince of order?). And the other Princes Sealed away Jyggalag in the form of Sheogorath because he was to powerful. So yes, Sheogorath could possibly be the most powerful, but his absolute madness of a mind cannot have him do anything really productive or meaningful.

[@shadowwalker_4748]

no he's not sithis is

[@zilia471]

ali alhashar Sithis is not a Deadric Prince

[@KingRumar]

W00T! This is awesome! I've always wanted to read more into Vaermina! That match up, tho.... Can't wait for this upcoming bit on Sanguine!!!

[@mitjakocjancic2205]

Cool, Sanguine is next :D One of my favorite princes. He's definetly one I'd actually worship.

[@mattfugate9029]

Shoddy cast has a great narrative voice it's perfect for the elder scrolls lore

[@valeclaw1697]

wasn't any last Friday.

[@DocRodneyMckay]

[@GenjiKilpatrick]

Another great episode, as usual! The race mod used for Vaermina herself is superb. Can't wait for the Sheogorath epi!!! XD

[@richardjordan9245]

Sanguine's up next! My favorite!

[@richardjordan9245]

SuperComando S I don't consider Sanguine to be evil, I would actually not be too disappointed to going to his realm in the after life, it is an eternal party! I think I got that right.

[@Balinux]

Richard Jordan You got that in sovngarde too.

[@ingmaster5]

Richard Jordan he's never done anything really evil in his quests. oblivion: go steal the clothes of everyone at this party. Skyrim: a wild goose chase of you fixing some relatively harmless mistakes.

[@richardjordan9245]

ingmaster5 His Skyrim quest was hilarious and awesome! Obviously inspired by the Hangover!

[@richardjordan9245]

Balinux Yeah, Sovngarde would probably be my first choice.

[@nej3157]

That episode was creepier than usual. Great job!

[@ingmaster5]

the moral of this story is, NEVER bet against Sheogorath.

[@1234kalmar]

It really sounds like the narrator is actually interested in the thing he narrates. No better addition than that :3 Lovely!

[@Neelmay13]

XD Sheogorath is too great.

[@Neelmay13]

Only Sheogorath can beat a god at there own game.

[@XxBestXxBoyXx]

He only lost to on

[@Skanderbeg99]

"Vaermina's place in Oblivion is called... QUAGMIRE!!!"

[@toryunaminosaki1022]

Moral of the first story, don't fuck with Sheogorath...he could give you fire dogs, and forks...or absolutely nothing until you drive yourself nuts ;p

[@sugarapplesweet]

Feels so good to hear yet another wonderful bit of lore.

[@ReyZoR4RO]

Sanguine! My favourite drinking buddy!

[@Leto85]

Wow, you have a truely amazing voice over voice! At times you speak a bit too fast but the quality of your voice certainly makes up for that. Not sure if English is your first language or not but you have a lot of beautiful words at your disposal as well. I love the video technique, the editing and the choice of letting everyone stand still or moving very slowely while the camera pans by. Simply amazing. I will subscribe at once.

Bethesda: So do you want to be a genius or a lunatic? Sheogorath: Yes.

[@FakeBlocks]

How many are left?

[@UltimaOmegaZero]

I bet 20+.

[@Payuka23]

Sanguine, Mehrunes Dagon, Sheogorath, and maybe Jyggalag.

[@UltimaOmegaZero]

lucas palhuca Oh, Daedric Princes? I thought he meant ES Lore in general.

[@Nyghtking]

lucas palhuca They already did Sheogorath/Jyggalag

[@brunfranc]

Another great ESL! Keep up the great work guys!

[@Manwendlil]

what about an episode of the dragonborn himself? =)

[@mojonation1487]

Which one?

[@Manwendlil]

the last dragonborn

[@Manwendlil]

but there must be a "canonical" ending. for example: is skyrim officially at the end part of the empire or has it gained independence? was the last dragonborn part of the stormcloak rebellion or was he loyal to the empire?

[@mojonation1487]

Matthias Maier Of course, but all those things can be true and happen out of order than how you experienced them just for it to be resolved anyways. Personally, I think the Empire is going to split apart.

[@TheCryticus]

Matthias Maier That's not how Bethesda do their stuff. They don't do canons. Post daggerfall instead of choosing one of the endings they invented magical event that breaks time and allows for contradictory events to happen simuntenously.

[@thescarletcultist113]

I just realized that vaermina’s realm of oblivion is called quagmire *giggity giggity goo*

[@BeckettCalvin]

"EldElder"?

[@GabrielVitor-kq6uj]

yep he is already mad dont worship Sheogogorath you willy begin to say no cheese sences

[@ironically_iconic9848]

10:19 QUAGMIRE REALLY!!!

[@crusher849]

Seriously never bet against Sheogorath he always wins.

[@ryanapperson8932]

Azura won a bet with him in Morrowind.

[@XxBestXxBoyXx]

Lost one time

[@retrowolf3456]

Vaermina could be a patron for musicians in black or death metal judging by the ractical transformation from light to dark music that transpired in the musician

[@w7100]

yet again proving you should never make a bet with Sheogorath

[@KiwiHawk-downunder-nz]

Kia ora Thanks a heap for these, Now that I have a new downloader I went back and found the HD versions, I found some Full HD and was a little disappointed I could not find ALL of these in full HD I'm thinking that might be KZbin tho, be nice to have them all in the same rez, but hey still neat to have them at all. Thank you very much for ALL your hard work, it can't be easy doing this stuff

[@christopherhall5361]

Admit it, these are all about Sheogorath

[@rachelstout6186]

so he had nightmares, and saw horrors and murder and all sorts of stuff, but totally passed up the chance of bringing death, doom, black, and thrash metal to Skyrim. Laaaaaame

[@ayleidking5251]

So by there logic Vaermina is the most powerful Deadic prince because her realm can merge with Nirn by bypassing the Wall the Aedra made Through mortal dreams.

[@hyperbros96]

Not really because dreams are not on Nirn and she does not bypass Firnament or Vei depending on how you call it Dreams are in dreamsleeve

[@snapgab]

The wall of the Aedra is to prevent Daedra from entering Nirn, it doesn't prevent mortals from entering Oblivion. So she doesn't bypass this wall, but you could argue that Vaermina has the biggest and easiest influence on mortals.

[@ayleidking5251]

But if she inters dreams that means she inters people. ha inters! By going inside of people she is technically inters Nirn. And something else you say it prevents Daedra from interring Nirn so why is it that Mehrunes Dagon could send 2 Daedra to kill you on his quest in Skyrim.

[@mojonation1487]

Nicholas Fincannon When mortals dream, their consciousness pings the Dreamsleeve which resides most likely in Aetherius.

[@ayleidking5251]

mojonation1487 Wouldn't that be worse because that means she can get to us when we die?

[@XTestament]

Ah true Silence... can truly drive a person mad... well played Sheogorath well played indeed. For what is truly more terrifying then never ever hearing the one you love or the music you love ever again? Especially for such an artist.

[@raulprima]

This series is just brilliant. Its damned inspired. Great job!

[@mortyjames5897]

[@chrisnichols5572]

Yeah, but she'd kill you if you touched her..lol

[@calebzitting461]

Chris Nichols true...but WORTH!

[@chrisnichols5572]

caleb zitting But she can read me bedtime stories. :)

[@RaderizDorret]

Chris Nichols CHALLENGE ACCEPTED

[@redzool]

+caleb zitting I was thinking the exact same thing

[@NeiroAtOpelCC]

The narration is world class. Wish discovery and bbc history people would hire him

[@ShadowoftheMask]

Whats up with all female daedric princes being more or less attractive?

[@DanielChico09]

ShadowoftheMask Agreed. They could have used an moded npc that looked like an old lady with gray skin and black or dark blue eyes. Same for Sanguine. There is an mod that give him his old colorful robe. The guy is a decadent drunk who likes to party, demonic looking armor doesn't fit him.

[@ShadowoftheMask]

Daniel Chico Yeah, considering they used generic beggar model for Namira... No real defense agaisnt it. Besides, I'm sure SOMEONE has done unique oldwoman model at least once. Or at least modified hagraven face to player character model :P But yeah, Sanguine is one thing why Bethesda's money cost measures annoy me, it feels odd for trickster/party guy/drunk one to be the menacing armor figure

[@DanielChico09]

ShadowoftheMask The Prince that disappoint me the most was Peryite. They couldn't make him appear as a dragon in the game about dragons!

[@ShadowoftheMask]

Daniel Chico My guess? They didn't want to model thinner dragon model for him and didn't want to reuse one in the game for some reason.

[@DanielChico09]

***** That is the lore explanation for any possible inconsistence between games. It's an interesting idea and a smart solution. The problem isn't that they change, the problem is that the changes don't fit the characters. Sanguine isn't know as a fighter, he is know as a depraved who enjoy pleasures and excesses. Since he appear as a physical presence in the game you would expect an custom model that fit the character, like Sheogorath and Nocturnal, instead we got an dremora surrounded by duplicated npcs. Peryite annoy me because they put ghostly rats to indicate the drug causes hallucinations and therefor he is communicating with you trough the hallucinations. So why wouldn't he appear in the illusion? Imagine how threatening that voice would be if it was coming from a ill looking four legged skinny dragon approaching you from behind that tree.

[@N7Normandy1]

This voice actor is incredible. I don't know how you found him but fucking hell kudos!

[@KuumaKalle119]

Giggity

[@Big_Gulps_Huh]

Lol there it is! I was waiting for someone to acknowledge it :)

[@KuumaKalle119]

It hit me as soon as i heard it XD

[@alexandraluster6185]

Sheogorath is a genius.

[@erinborglol8759]

Really? do you guys gotta make all the daedric "princesses" pretty? =\

[@artski09]

why not ?

[@Azraelseraphim]

Its all about deception. Men usually put their guard down at the sight of beautiful women. Sexism works and is quite necessary in the affairs of intrigue.

[@vvardenfellredmountain3749]

Theyre not princesses they are PRINCES. The daedric princes are all genderless and appear in any form they choose. =P

[@Azraelseraphim]

colebowlin68 You think I have a shot with her.

[@Azraelseraphim]

colebowlin68 Reminds me of that time I mistook a feminine looking dude for a woman. Not great... Lol.

[@RedDingo777]

They should get Wes Johnson to narrate the Sheogorath episode in character.

[@crok8349]

subscribed. great videos!

[@Nyrufa]

I've been waiting to see the Sanguine video for a long time now! I'm also curious to see Clavicus Vile soon.

[@HuNt3R47]

lol really enjoy your lore series and hope you continue :D

[@JVCazerty]

Those videos are AWESOME...
