So I was haunting the net and I stumbled upon some interesting info. The continent of Tamriel, Nirn, the Mundus, and the planes of Oblivion were all originally one of the original developers of the older TES games homebrew D&D worlds. Meaning our favorite past time has it's roots in the wonderful Gygaxium!
This makes me wonder if some of the older "Ledgends from earlier eras of the world were in fact campaigns from their old D&D days. The Tribunal's storied past in particular smells of the pungent stench of PC's. I mean, speaking as a D&D player myself, there is probably no party playing today that wouldn't set themselves up as a theocracy and the murder of Nerevar carries the odor of Party Politics. I can see it now...
DM: You stand above the two fallen warriors, Nerevar and Dagoth Ur. They look as though they struck each other down.
Alma: Ner, how far into negative health are you?
Ner: 5, but I'm bleeding out.
Alma: Ok, heal check and a heal minor wounds spell? *rolls* Stabilize and get back 3 health.
Sotha: I'm gonna go Coup-de-grace Ur and then check out the Golem and the Heart. *rolls a search and spot* Um... Yeah I think I walked over and forgot what I was doing...
Vivec: Heeeeyyy... Why don't we become gods? xd
Ner: What? No! That things evil and I'm Lawful Good! My character would never do that! scream
Vivec: Eh... *rolls dice* Does a 23 hit your flat footed AC? xp
Ner: WHAT THE HELL?!? scream
DM: *facepalm*
Alma: WTF Vivec?!? You just killed my Husband!?! scream
Vivec: Yeah but you love me more. *rolls* See, 43 diplomacy. You love me. cool
DM: *double facepalm*
Sotha: I'm in. I could use some ranks in divine spellcaster. *chuckles* mrgreen
Alma: *Grumble* Fine. stare
Ner: Does anybody care that he just killed me?
Vivec: Nope.
Sotha: Nuh-uh.
Alma: I cared for all of ten seconds apparently.
DM: I really stopped caring when Vivec started running around in pauldrons and a loin-cloth...
Ner: ********' rogues... emo
