Have you ever done a video on the appearance of the races? Like who's the most unappealing to the others? Who's the most attractive to them? What happens when two different races procreate, does the child take on the appearance of both? And can princes have children, what would that even look like?

I think he, even more than the other shifting impermanent daedra, best fits the appearance of being inconsistent. I feel his appearance has more to do with the observer than himself, when you see him you aren't seeing *him~, so much as your mind's best attempt to comprehend what you are looking at. So a grounded, practical minded child of Cyrodiil in Oblivion sees a potato crab because that's what the statues look like. A superstitious son or daughter of Skyrim, regardless of race, is likely to be more accepting of forces as vague and grand and unknowable, surrounded by Norse and Scottish flavored myths and magic that tends to be more ethereal. Then in ESO we get a more viable confrontable threat as we are in a dragonbreak surrounded by powers that are formidable, but not beyond the reach of our combined efforts to defeat them, and is perhaps held to a stable form by multiple simultaneous observers, perhaps.

5:07 “If someone is stabbed by a sword, do we blame the sword?” If I give a sword to a little kid and they kill someone with it by mistake, then yes I am absolutely to blame. That’s what Mora is actually doing; giving power to those he knows can’t handle it. It’s proof that Daedric Princes are completely irresponsible and a bane to Nirn.

Would it not be a greater evil to lock away every sword you can find, and deny access to anyone other than a swordsmaster, no matter how great their need? By choosing to share his knowledge with Mundus, Mora is allowing mortals to take their fate into their own hands, and judge for themselves whether or not they're ready for his arcane truths. I disagree emphatically that this shows Mora to be irresponsible, and think this reveals more of his intrinsic nature - the Daedric Prince of Profane Secrets can't afford to judge an idea as too dangerous or inappropriate, it would contradict his being. Instead he grants the mortals he chooses to deal with that responsibility, because the realm of mortal morality is naturally much more real to them than it is to him. This post was brought to you by Septimus Signus, who would also appreciate any financial assistance with his current outpost renovations.

I'm a long time ESO player, but hearing Camel say there's really something to be enjoyed and something to really be suprised about for all TES players really warms my heart in some way

Mora in the slavic mythology is a suffix for the lower tier immortals. And Hermes, being both a lower tier god and a god of knowledge, is the perfect name for this Daedra Lord. Everything in the Elder Scrolls is layer within layer, meaning within a meaning. Love it!

I recently bought Necrom cause I absolutely love Hermaeus Mora and need more Apocrypha, it was so nice to see an expansive look into apocrypha. Hopefully we get more expansive planes of oblivion in future elder scrolls titles. ESO definitely pleases my lore frenzied heart

I think Starfield is a good indicator of the kinds of sizes we can expect for future titles. probably not gigantic empty expanses that take many irl hours to cross but definitely Big Enough to keep people satisfied.

I doubt you’ll ever read this camel, but I’mma do it anyway. I grew up in SW florida, and a few months back I drove 21 hrs north to leave my family in florida behind and finally make my own way. I had never driven a road trip on my own, I had been awake for 24 hrs before the 21 hr drive, and I was driving through the night, and the whole time I had your vids on the aux, listening to your lore dumps to keep me entertained and awake. Even when I blew a tire in West Virginia at 3am and had to wait in the snow on the shoulder for a roadside rescue I was listening to your theory on the Augur of Dunlain. Appreciate it man, ya kept me sane.

I so deeply hope that we will meet Sun-in-Shadow again in the new DLC.

Thank you Camel, very glad to know about this!

I'm missing out so much... Long time fan of you. Love ESO but haven't been able to play for a while. Glad to experience this vicariously through your thorough and erudite presentation.

Also played it on the PTS. That twist at the end. Really didn’t see that coming at all! Had a lot of thoughts on what might of been forgotten but that wasn’t even on the radar!

My favorite interpretation of Herma-Mora remains Vicn's mod trilogy. Even though Glenmoril isn't finished yet and Unslaad is being expanded again, the execution and extrapolation of the deep lore, particularly regarding Mora, is incomparable

@@carlk6443 I can't summarize everything the trilogy dives into, there's just that much, but the gist is that Herma-Mora is trying to learn how to escape the Dream, and he's orchestrating crazy plots across time to figure it out. He was messing about in Saarthal, masquerading as Jhunal, growing people out of tree limbs, sending agents to infiltrate child slavery cults, all kinds of weird stuff. Vicn's blog entries lately have been promising to bring in the lore regarding Ysgramor and his connection to Mora too. Basically, Vicn portrays Mora as a figure who lives up to his eldritch reputation while also being a compelling character that the player can somewhat understand.

Awesome that you got this sponsorship. Definitely looking forward to the lore summary videos on this expansion. Pretty sure this is the first time I'm saying that for ESO lmao

As the Prince of knowledge who tests mortals, I suppose it makes sense Camel would find out about him on a Beta server. Perhaps that’s why his followers get lost following his quest for knowledge - they’re MMO players.

0:30 I totally thought he was going to say “I AM THE ONE WHO KNOCKS”

Love ESO and this is def a match made in heaven! Thanks Camel!!

I hear Hermaeus Mora's hentai collection is... Unparalleled.

I'm impressed with your Lore and how you describe it so eloquently 👌 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Well said @Camelworks

Man your'e on a roll. Releasing one video after the other and I for one am happy about it :)

"...it would be if he had any sleeves." Acceptable commentary, could also been the voicebox orc locked in a backroom to been accepted

I avoided the quests on the PTS but just spent time wandering Apocraphya, its stunning as usual from ESO

Thanks Camel!

Lol randomly searching Herma and boom! A new upload !!! Thank you

I am so happy he has his proper voice actor.

Excellent video, thanks much! :)

Interesting he's got connection to the tides in Khajiit myths, must've missed that note. It stands out to me as I remember reading somewhere that memories are stored in water in some beliefs in TES, which flow out into the seas after death.

That new class looks so sick! I might actually get this!

Thanks for the video Camel, hopefully you can talk more about that “surprise” after Necrom releases, it sounds utterly terrifying and could tie to the other Daedric stories in ESO (not spoiling it tho)

I didn't think you were gonna list his Names for 20 Minutes. Sure fooled me.

In all the videos that this guy does I think I may have found a detail that has gone unnoticed in the game or at least isn't talked about very much Movarth has a foot fetish. His dungeon actually has a minor focus on footwear. Movarth has a shelf filled with many of the styles of boots and shoes, he even has a unique set of hide boots named after him at what I presume would be his bedside. At the beginning of the dungeon you can even hear a vampire thrall with unique dialogue revolving around him gathering clothes off of a pile of their murdered victims. One of the first things the thrall starts talking about is the boots that one of the bodies are wearing. Also Alva (the vampire that you have to kill who enthralled Hroggar and is in love with Movarth) has a set of boots with a very uncommon appearance. Alva's boots while non-magical and not even given a unique name are still the only boots I have seen with that appearance. She is also in possession of the rare tavern clothes. I wouldn't be surprised if Movarth chose her for her unique fashion sense.

Great job with the video :)

While he’s my favorite Daedric Prince, I didn’t like the model for Necrom. It didn’t feel as fluid as the Skyrim one. It’s not bad, but it felt stagnant compared to the Skyrim one. Like 7:00 I feel like that’s a way better model. It is very fluid yet still shows how mysterious and powerful Herma Mora is while the ESO version feels more solid. The DLC was absolutely fantastic though! I loved exploring the new lands and I love the new class a lot! All hail The One Who Knows!

Ngl, took me days to finally start questing as I was too busy exploring and looking at things in Necrom and Apocrypha. The devs really put a lot of detail and clutter in the environment to create immersion and the sense of being in a different world.

okay but Mr. Mora is looking kinda cute ngl

Bruh, the comments in here tell me they dont get to the Cloud district often.

Congrats for the direct Bethesda/ZOS partnership!

Everythin' becomes cooler with a Lovecraftian touch~

I really want to know this and I think it's interesting that in skyrim you only seen dibella statues. I have like 9 dibella statues yet there are no other small statues that are different or can be picked up?

Oh hell yes, I've not played much ESO but I'm SO stoked to pick up Necrom. Hermaeus Mora is AWESOME.

Great vid! Do you plan on exploring that insane ending further? Extremely hyped!

This chapter looks dope!

Wow that mora model and voice are amazing

heres hoping we run into miraak again and get to see what its like to fight him as a non dragonborn demigod

Someone said that Herma Mora's knowledge domain is limited only the written ones. Is it true? I just wonder why Apocrypha is full of book thing, and why he can't extract Skaal tradition himself. Pardon my noobiness in lore.

1. Whoever wrote the script on this did a great job with alliteration and patter flow. A+ wordcrafting. 2. I still think HM was the one who led the charge against Jyggalag out of jealousy for the whole fate thing. He had to Highlander it up and break Jyg in the best-worst way possible. Interesting that the whole Fate thing never seems to mention Jyg anymore.

brave of them to launch on the same weekend as diablo, thanks for the vid ;)

Haven't seen you, or the guys over at Fudgemuppet talk much about the new *spoiler* daedric prince that Mora hid from living memory which is revealed in the DLC quests

This is all well and good Camel, but did you find one of the books of the Poison Song series in the DLC? In case you didn't know, the Poison Song is a 7 part series written by Bristin Xel detailing a historically inaccurate epic saga, set in the aftermath of the war between the Dwemer and House Dagoth. 😜

this is awesome

Can i just say that i love that this all knowing daedric prince really only wanted some small knowledge for his help in killing his oldest follower

Congrats on the sponsorship, Camel! Great video! What server are you on? Can't buy your wares unless you're on NA. 😂

It stands to reason that Apocrypha would contain not only tomes, but also various biology, as DNA (or w/e the fantasy equivalent might be) is information.

Oh shit I forgot this was coming out

Love all your videos. I’d be curious to see a timeline of the Stormcloaks. It feels all over the place. Asgeir Snow-Shod says that his father was a Stormcloak soldier when he was younger implying that the war has been going on for many years. The Markarth Incident suggests it was more recent than this, but when you arrive in Solitude they are executing a man for opening the gates for Ulfric, and I suspect trials don’t last very long in Skyrim based on the speed of Ulfric’s execution if you side with the empire or the speed with you are going to be executed at the beginning of the game. In Falkeath the merchant says he used to be a Stormcloak years prior. Whiterun is also confusing. Whiterun is the only Hold that managed to stay out of the war, yet it is the only city with a war hospital in the form of the temple which has wounded soldiers on every bed. Skirmishes in Whiterun are even a key part of the story of the Solitude Alchemist. I struggle to understand the Stormcloak timeline.

Also, Torygg isn’t in the hall of valor when you visit Sovngarde. Alduin has seemingly only just arrived to the 4th Era, rather than any time longer. Bethesda doesn’t know how time works. I feel like the war should’ve *just* started or started within 5 years of the game.

Reminds me of the gravemind.

Herma: "I am the one who knows" me: "Heisenberg"

The shock is they answered what happened to the Dwmer right?

I love his voice so much more than in Skyrim. So much less like a tired old man, and much more like an actual demonic entity

I do believe he was the guardian in a past time I will call, soulweaver he kept the under world and after life on check

Side note, I've always wondered what was in all those books in his world. Like there can't be that much knowledge, but I guess that could depend, does he have a book about a guy named Jim who stole 2 GP from someone and went on to live a normal life? I feel like most of his books are "lame"

Yeah most knowledge and events are pretty mundane. Yet there is always a way to manipulate information to make it useful. Its all about how one can(t) use the tools they have. Although a overload of mundane info would still be pretty harsh on one’s mental state, arguably more so than “powerful” info.

WES'S VOICE, ALWAYS A PLEASURE

Apocrypha reminded me a lot of Ghostbusters 360. Specifically the library dimension level.

KYAAA!? Step-tentacle, what are you doing?

Clicked for the title, and realized I was the odd one out. Nice to learn something about the ink overlord though.

Hermaeus Mora is literally, a flying spaghetti monster, who will touch you with his noodly appendage.

Am I the only one that thinks Hermaeus Mora looks cute with the tiny two tentacles under his eyes?

The dude knows his cut content. And I mean Hermaeus Mora and content that was cut when the world was made

Herm looks sooooo good. Just gotta say it

If I can make a suggestion for a (at least seemingly) more simple mystery, about about Rune from the Thieves Guild real name and background. We are introduced to him with him looking for answers, and we can’t even try to look for them too!

Ahh something to watch after work. See ya later everyone 😊

Hi Camel! I should play ESO at some point. It seems fun.
