Morrowind: Fun with 6th house bells!

I was re-playing morrowind when I re-discovered the 6th house bells!
I decided it was about time to get creative.

[@ACuteLIttleGirl]

Dagoth Claus welcomes you, Nerevar, to this place where presents are made.

[@D.Aniel89]

Why were you so misbehaved?

[@TheSplitlip]

​@@D.Aniel89 is this how you honor the sixth and the North Pole unmourned?

[@JayMannStuff]

I'm a Claus. How can you gift a Claus? What a grand and intoxicating peace on earth and goodwill towards Dunmer. How could you be so jolly? There is ho ho ho escape (from under the mistletoe of Canis Root).

[@missgrimreaper2000]

Lore friendly.

[@Ralwor]

Its not a mod friend. this is a vanilla game asset that i am playing with. hehehe!

[@missgrimreaper2000]

I know lol i'm just joking about the song you played.

[@Ralwor]

it was dec 22nd or something and i got to this quest and decided to see if I could play anything. lol. I think i practiced like five times before I recorded. lol.

[@missgrimreaper2000]

Can't wait to make it there there is so many i can try.

[@Ralwor]

you can always pop into ck and mod one in. tesIIICK is so easy compared to tesVCK. Lol.

[@realdude111]

Now look what you've done, you summoned the Corpus Santa!

[@vevosuxalot8136]

you mean krampus the anti santa

[@KambingGaming531]

vevo sux alot - hahah..lol

[@mmyr8ado.360]

Hee hee hee ho ho ho To Uncle Sweetshare's shop we go!

[@ammagon4519]

You basically just summoned Yagrum Bagarn but with a Santa outfit.

[@matias-jc3ip]

No no he has summoned Santa Ur

[@TrollDragomir]

Dashing through the ash, In one strider open tent, Lava fields we rush, Staring with contempt Bells on blackened wood Making flesh go wild What a fun it is to growl and wound A Sixth House song tonight Oh! Sixth House Bells, Sixth House Bells Sixth House all the way Oh what fun it is to die in an ashpit of his grace Oh! Sixth House Bells, Sixth House Bells Sixth House all the way Oh what fun it is to pray in a defiled corprus shrine

[@Ralwor]

... Yes!

[@notgray88]

That was goddamn amazing! Take my likes

[@TheFlowerday96]

bravo jolly good show

[@ByrgenworthGraduate]

Lmao i sang your lyrics while he was playing wit da bells

[@XRemARx]

this is art

[@Piemaster4408]

Love the mental image of this creepy ass atmosphere and the nerevar just crashes in and starts slamming jingle bells on the unholy shrine

[@LegDayLas]

I still remember spending hours in this room trying to figure out the reason for the bells. I knew I MUST be missing something because there is no way a game developer would take the time and resources to add working bells like this. Turns out yes, they totally put them in the game for no reason at all.

[@avelynihyll5342]

I'm pretty sure it's actually a lore reason because Dagoth Ur used music (fittingly tapping the Heart of Lorkhan with the tools to make a drumbeat) to become a god. That's why he says He's "older than music" in his address in the 36 Lessons of Vivec. I imagine precussion instruments are vital to his worshipers' rituals.

[@LegDayLas]

@@avelynihyll5342 still doesn't mean they actually needed to program the bells to function, could get the same lore by just putting a generic prop in. Generally if a developer takes the effort to add an interaction aspect to the games props, that interaction has a functional reason for existence.

[@BlastinRope]

@@LegDayLas the lore in morrowind isnt just props

[@royroblox]

@@LegDayLas I was just reading that they intended to make a whole quest / storyline featuring the 6th house, but abandoned it before release. But still kept all this mysterious stuff in

[@backtothegrave]

@@royroblox I remember playing at least one mod adding 6th house content that let you summon creatures by tapping the bells the right way. quite likely they reused some leftover scripts

[@Leone525]

Just imagine hearing the sound of these bells in your dreams every fuckin night. I think now I know how Dagoth Ur managed to turn so many people to raving madmen.

[@HrothgarHeavenlight]

Also he probably can hear every bell in his temples. Imagine that clutter he hear, probably that's why he is so insane.

[@filescout266]

@@HrothgarHeavenlight it must be like being in a eternal discord server where nobody uses a headset....

[@crestfallenknight7983]

Encountering the Sixth House in Morrowind was always the most disturbing experience =CC

[@Ralwor]

it most certainly was! i loved it. i loved morrowind back when its graphics and mechanics were considered to be good. Id absolutely love to see a recreation since modern robust gameplay and graphics have made it tough for me to replay Morrowind without switching to Oblivion or Skyrim. lol.

[@MrC00kieM0nst3r]

Ramiz S true I cleared Ilunabi (the cave with the gauntlets or Rundagolf) I believe the name was recently and the vastness of that cave together with the red candle and eerieness gave me the chills.

[@Knight_Of_Eleum_Loyce]

And badass. I loved how creepy those Sixth House Bases felt. I never felt creeped out in Skyrim. It's sad how Skyrim doesn't really have any creepy locations like they did in Morrowind and Oblivion.

[@spartanK42]

"Hmmmm I'm bored let me check out this random cave real quick." "Wait why are there red candles???"

[@martinn.6082]

@@Knight_Of_Eleum_Loyce I think the draugr are pretty creepy. But yeah, it doesn't compare.

[@dynguskhan]

Is this how you honor the 6th house and the tribe unmourned?

[@07thunderhawk]

What a grand and intoxicating tune, this is most indeed how you honor the sixth house!

[@breendart134]

A decade later this appears in my recommended in the midst of a new wave of Morrowind memes. Love it.

[@soulrebel6309]

Yep

[@basiliimakedonas1109]

If there was an ash vampire playing the bells randomly for an infinite amount of time at some point he'd compose DAGOTHWAVE

[@ufodeath]

Those bells always were freakish sounding

[@Ralwor]

If tim burton ever actually did something for humanity, he taught us that Christmas can be spooky too. XD

[@chriscormac231]

I think it's because they were missing some sub audio so they produce half tones

[@JanFWeh]

I love how he looks around at the end. "Which secrets did I just unlock?"

[@bignumbers]

"Come Dasher. Dancer or Prancer, come! Come, look upon the spirit of Christmas"

[@BingtheLizard]

Dagoth Ur, Dagoth Ur, Dagoth all the way. Oh what fun it is to raid a 6th house den each day, hey!

[@Pappimen]

I usually just bell randomly, but at least someone is creative.

[@hundragant]

They should have some secret that is revealed when playing a certain song

Why on earth this was recommended to me 10 years later is beyond me but I certainly don’t regret clicking.

[@josephfusco7941]

The bell hammer is a pretty awesome early game 2h weapon too.

[@pharaohsmagician8329]

*Advancement* You've done a great job for the Bards Guild! Here's your Christmas Present Early, Nwah, a Custom Jump Spell ! A normal Jump 100pts spell takes you very far, but you can easily TRIPLE the distance it takes you by making the following spell that fits on a single enchantment: Feather 100pts 1sec Jump 100pts 1 sec Fortify Strength100pts 1 sec Fortify Strength100pts 1 sec Fortify Strength100pts 1 sec (Yes 300 pts total) Make sure the effects are in this exact order, and you might have to reduce one of the effects a few points down to make it fit on your item, but none should need to be rescued below 90 points. This enchantment can fit on the Exquite Jewelry, and if you cast it from the Dome of the Palace of Vivec, you can get to Tel Branora in 3 jumps! I discovered it myself after lots of magical research because I love Jumping Spells and it's been lots of fun. You NEED slowfall to land though, but DO NOT have Slowfall active when you press jump, as contrary to popular belief even 1 point of slowfall drastically reduces total jump distance (easy to test and prove, just jump from the same spot with and without slowfall) 125 points in Acrobatics negates all Fall Damage I think. Also pushing the thumbstick forward during the entire length of the jump takes you further than not touching it at all, most everyone knows this but a good reminder for distance testing purposes.

[@SubidubidubiDu1]

Well done Nerevarine, you have summoned the Holy Spirit of Christmas

[@Dr.Cosmar]

It's like they were looking around for Krampus the Orgim after they did the jingle.

[@elenhin]

So these are the bells for that bellhammer Auryen wants you to get. Cool.

[@ZoeBateman]

imagine getting corprus and then just "fuck it, time to make music"

[@CalleJonte]

We hear it as dissonant because we’re not used to the morrowind tuning. They have their own scales

[@rhubarber2272]

A sleeper grasping at a distant memory, playing the notes from the mist of his life before. The notes mean nothing, the motion automatic. The dull tones satisfy the itch and if he had a face, it may have smiled. That was it, like an odd shape dropping into a rightly odd hole. A completeness warmed him, that was enough. Now, back to dreaming.

[@sorrowangel47]

imagine there was a secret in the game about that .....imagine suddenly after doing dark schristmas theme on these bells , the Grinch appears and loot a special item if you win .
