See this is quality content. I try to dig into Fudgemuppets numerous videos, but his Dungeon Master voice just tunes me right out for some reason. You use a normal voice, which makes me feel like I'm listening to a conversation vs a bed time story, use illustrations and NPC voiced dialogue to switch things up and keep us attentive. Keep up the good work my friend.

I quite agree. I love their (Fudgemuppet is three, well now two, people) and how it’s more of them being in that world. But I really love this guys content so far, this is the first I’ve seen so far.

@spoopyghost8326 Ай бұрын

I got a idea, Mannimarco the god, uses the altmer as a sort of shuttle. We see when he was a Monk that he called necromancy puppetry, he could likely be using a similar form of puppetry on the man we see in oblivion.

Thought on him being the first of the undying liches: all previous liches had to become undead to be immortal, ala the dragon priests and the alyeids. H became the first to have the power and immortality of a lich while still having a living body, not having to sacrifice any of his spirit in the transition. He's always a living being when we see him and doesn't take any effects as an undead would from what I remember in oblivion

I personally really like the option 2 theory on Mannimarco in Oblivion. It to me is a very uniquely elder scrolls thing to have two seemingly paradoxical things to be taking place. It also makes me wonder how does the memories of this Mannimarco we meet in Oblivion work. Is he aware of his Apotheosis, or does he only have the memories of not receiving the stone of Tiber Septum from the agent?

@drewgoin8849 7 күн бұрын

I also preferred #2 as an explanation. It is difficult to justify the appearance of both the Revenant Moon, as well as Mannimarco. To my mind, it's challenging to otherwise explain their simultaneous reincarnations on Tamriel.

@theemerdareloth 7 күн бұрын

Very interesting question. I wish we could see Mannimarco in some sense again in TES VI. Like we pray to the Revenant or something and can interact with him.

@01tripl3 Күн бұрын

i remember encountering him for the first time in oblivion when i was a child and subsequently making fun of him alongside all of the other high elf models. then both of us went through puberty apparently and reconvened years later in the ESO live action trailer. sheesh. why did they think that was necessary? my guy used the dark arts to do a hair follicle transplant. i’ve been down bad ever since.

Necromancy is forbidden for a reason. At the very least Stephen kings pet cemetery was a good example on why.

@similaritiesendhere Күн бұрын

Before necromancy meant raising the dead, it meant communicating with the dead. A lot of people practice it. Prayer is a pretty word for "summoning spell". Praying to Jesus is an attempt to earn eternal life (double necromancy). The New Testament is the glorified story of a human sacrifice. Not trying to offend anyone. Just calling a spade a spade. Moses never talked to the dead or asked spirits for eternal life. All that was added in the reboot.

Fourth Mannimarco option: Although he ascended his mortal body was still undead. Thus he would be able to control it and it having the amount of power that he had in life, thus how he could still learn and grow in power despite already being deified. Normally the Aedra and those who have ascended are strictly bound to their Aedric planes. They can appear to mortals and grant boons to them but cannot casually create avatars for themselves and especially not at their full power level. Such things require extraordinary circumstances like with Martin Septim. So although Talos can appear to people I don't think he could go around personally fighting with his full power. If he could then surely he'd go around fighting in every imperial battle.

I don’t think oblivion mannimarco has to be anything too complex, the gods are known to have avatars, and mannimarco being of nirn originally should have no trouble creating one to meddle. I don’t think manni himself should appear again, unless he’s the primary antagonist of a TES game, but he could fill a role similar to a Daedric prince. He is a god after all, he should be seeking to expand his influence and reward his followers.
