The Elder Scrolls Lore: Bretons

The Bretons are the human race who hail from High Rock. Despite being classified as human, they are descendents of Humans and Elves who intermingled in the province of High Rock in Tamriel's early documented history. Because of this, Bretons are quite attuned to magic, unlike most humans, but hold a resistance against it unlike most Elves. This video discusses the Bretons, their history, their cultures, their pantheon, and the region of High Rock as well.

Can’t wait to listen. Bretons are my favorite race in The Elder Scrolls. “Find a new hill, become a king.”

[@Nich011]

Lol, That's the best Breton saying ever... first time i saw it i really didn't understand how much It pictured well their people until i went deep into them. Easily one of the most interesting races in Tamriel, i mean, how can half-elves NOT be interesting?

[@ysmirwulfharth4012]

Ulysses Actually not. Basic 25% magic resistance + Dragonskin that let‘s you allow absorb 50% magic from incoming spells. You could argue the special ability is pretty good but why should you absorb spells from only mages when you can calm or inflict fear with the Imperial and Nord ability at the same time. The ability gets valuable against dragons and other magic creatures. Or why being a „only a bit resistance to all“ when you can be 25% more resistant (50%) against a specific element like fire, which is used pretty often, when you are a Dunmer or Frost when you are a Nord. It’s in general only good against magic users and being a magic user yourself. When it comes to stats they are worse than Altmer regarding Magic and far more worse than any other race regarding combat abilities for example Redguards or Nords. There is no best race as a whole but best races in their respective categories for example Altmer are the best in Magic and so on.

"Let your fantasy go and play someone you always wanted to be." I always thought that you need to be high for that, ore not happy with this life (don't think that anymore tho).

I remember someone in the Bethesda forums back when Oblivion had come out hosting a tournament between a couple of forum members, pitting their PC Champions of Cyrodil against each other. A Breton daedra conjurer in heavy armor destroyed the competition lol the character I submitted was a Breton mage in archimage robes and the archmages staff who was also a conjurer.

Nords - North Germanic culture, vikings, Saxons Bretons - "Latinized" Germanic people's, medieval England and France, that also have a Celtic origin (Britons and Gauls) Redguards - Moors / Berbers. "Arabized" africans (North Africa These are the influences the Human races in TES are based on

[@MybeautifulandamazingPrincess]

@@magentamomo7150 French culture is Germanic. You might want to look it up the history of France. The very name of the country comes from the Franks, the Germanic tribe that became the prevalent force in France after the fall of the Roman empire, and the first royal dynasties of France. And they spoke a Franconian dialect similar to standard Dutch (both belonged to the Franconian family of Germanic languages). And ofc there were many other Germanic tribes that settled in Gaul after the Roman empire fell, and formed feudal kingdoms And naturally, France has a Celtic origin with the Gauls, the original culture of France before the Romans

Truth be told I think eastern Bretons are 90% Human 10% Mer and Western Bretons 60% Human and 40% Mer. That's my head canon. It really varies individual to individual.

Just started a Breton character can’t wait to learn more about her culture :)

Honestly, learning about the lore of the series makes me wish it was more front and centre of the stories of the games. I suspect it’s because of the teams changing, but the lore is so strong and rich, where Skyrim and even Oblivion don’t go terribly deep into it. Imagine how incredible the stories could be if the lore of the races was at the front of everything, as opposed to their relatively more insular stories, like in Skyrim.

If ES6 isn't in High Rock, I'm gonna riot We've had our Norse inspired adventures in Skyrim, the Greco-Roman inspired Oblivion in Cyrodiil, let's have a classic high fantasy adventure in high Rock! Give us a settlement to build up as a base of operations, fortify it, go from Landed Knight to noble to petty king or queen of a small kingdom!

I am playing a Breton Forsworn Shaman, such a fun and powerful play through!

Would love to see you do a video on the dwemer. Your voice is very serene. Keep it up!!

[@darkphoenix4568]

[@seipher_8334]

Please do all of the races! You are amazing!!

Hopefully, Breton height will return in the games again, makes no sense for them to be so short with their ancestry.

Easily my favourites next to Redguards

[@jonbaker476]

Wow, this is really in depth. Definitely my favorite race, although the Dunmer are a close second. I just think the Bretons are so interesting

[@darrenklein6742]

Awesome, just like all your videos, keep up your work, it is awesome

[@alexwest2573]

My favorite Tamerielic race, I’d like to think that the current era Bretons are descended from all the Elven races including Alyeids and Falmer possibly some Dwemer descended Bretons too.
