"Pretty Dodgy Fellow" is definitely the best of Molag Bal's many titles.

"just because he can" perfectly sums up molag bal, he does what he wants purely because he can and that's all the reason he needs.

“He’s a pretty dodgy fellow” wise words from daedrologist drew!!

*"Molag Bal, a Daedra so vile, not even our dastardly Dunmer cousins venerate him. Daedric Prince of Titles, BDSM, Vore, dark kinks... Harkon's secret daddy. He truly is Molag Ballin"* #YoungScrolls #BloodGang

'Other' is a very powerful domain.

Molag Bal has more titles than the Dragonborn

He has so many horrific titles - “Prince of Domination”, “Lord of Corruption”, “Lord of Brutality”, “Captain of Corruption”, “Sewer of Schemes”, “Lord of Cold-Harbor”, “Molag the Schemer”, “Lord of Lies” and perhaps his most sinister title of all ... “Malcom McDowell”!

What if Vivec and Molag Bal actually had the most healthy and wholesome relationship ever and the 36 Lessons are just a coverstory so they dont lose face?

The interesting thing about the Daggerfall - Oblivion depictions of Molag Bal is that they more closely resemble older medieval depictions of the devil (reptilian and almost dragon-esq) while the newer depictions are much more akin to the modern image of a demon.

"Yes, into the bowels. Come deeper your surprise is waiting." - Todd probably.

Molag Bal - Daedric Prince of Corruption & Other terrible things we can't put in the title or else KZfaq will be mad.

Perfect timing, I’m a day into a molag bal devotee wintersun build as we speak. Perfect mental furnishing for roleplay

Corruption and uh.. let’s say “Grape”.

Was captain of corruption a title earlier in his career before he got promoted up to lord of corruption

For as awful as Bal is, his taste of aesthetic in cold harbor and it’s denizens is pretty on point. It looks pretty cool.

"For Shor" is my favourite phrase of you guys

Interestingly Molag is probably the best Prince to serve as a champion for as he doesn't get involved in your life and simply wants you to use your weapon to kill when needed. The other princes require eternity or other nonsense but Bal just wants chaos and you to cause it.

Molag Bal, Deadric Prince of “Damnit because of you we can’t marry Serana.”

Going to have to do a video theorizing jygglaggs relationship with anu. I suspect that perfect order being ganged up on by the other daedra has something to do with patomay and anu's struggle.

32:00 mins in and the GOLDEN LORE about BAL and VIVEC. When I first heard this I could not contain my laughter. 😂

"He forcibly took the virginity of Lamae Bal, killing her in the process" "Hmm pretty dodgy fella" This is possibly the funniest unscripted exchange I've heard in my fucking life

Been watching for like the past 2 months! First comment though, you guys rock! I didn't think anything would get me to play Skyrim for the 400th time, but learning all this new lore has done it! Currently a lv 34 Argonian battlemage!

**Molag Bal enters Nirn** “It is I, Molag Bal, Daedric prince of Other........” “st- stop laughing”

My favorite Daedric Prince and honestly the most misunderstood. I think you guys captured his ideals extremely well. He is the tester, the Ruddyman, and dominator. Molag Bal helps those who are weak become strong, and those who remain weak toil. His order is the most fair to me. Because in truth Power is all that matters in the end. Your willpower is what defines you. If you lose that, you’re no better than a soul worm working in his catacombs.

Dawg y’all are so close to 1 million, can’t wait to see the boom this channel is gonna get when TES:6 comes out

I hope the VIGILANT Skyrim mod gets a mention at some point. Amazing lore with Molag Bal at the center of the story.

The only thing more Evil than molag bal are the Drukari/Dark Eldar from warhammer 40k. And that's saying something.

There is also a book that talks about how molag bal sent his minions to come through oblivion to find an atronach as elegant as a fire atronach but as cold as a frost atronach to better fit in his realm. Hence the cold fire atronoch. Which not so coincidentally matches his preferred way of power manifestation, molag bals cold fire.

"Other". We know why it's Other. And we understand.

Molag Ballin

If a whoopee cushion was a relic, who would get it? My money is on either Sheogorath or Sanguine.

Meridia and Molag Bal have parallels in that both want their followers to lack individual agency. For me, I like Meridia but I also enjoy vampirism too much, though I really care little for Molag Bal.

You guys really ignored the glorious opportunity to call him the “demon of demonetization‽” “Other?” *”OTHER‽”* You guys are better than that

**looking at the title** Oh boy, this lore train is going to ESO central lol

“I used to be an adventurer like you, until Molag Bal graped me, killed me, and turned me into a vampire” - Lamae Beolfag, probably Edit: grammar.

19:20 i also miss the old rpg book illustration style that used to influence these games.

Molag ballin'

This one is a simple Khajiit,yes..... Sees Fudgemuppet, Instantly starts watching,yes..

So, this is my first time seeing Drew and I was quite surprised because I look almost exactly like him.

On the topic of the flowery perfume smell in Coldharbour. I think that it would be so that you never acclimatise to the stench of decay. I imagine it to be an overpowering and sickly sweet smell (like when you open an air freshener in a car) followed by a smell foul beyond comprehension

At around the 16 minute mark, you mention a sickly sweet perfume in Cold Harbour (?), and my mind went to one of my nursing pracs walking into the room of an old person with a long infected leg wound that a day later took their life. Immediate recollection of the heat and smell of decaying flesh on entering, and bring with the nurse changing the dressing. Christ what did the authors of this world experience to be able to write this stuff heh

As far as the Sauron imagery goes, I think that may have been a clear design choice for lore reasons. Both Molag Bal and Sauron are demon-type characters, who have been around almost forever in their own worlds, who also both heavily favor the corruption and domination of other things. Having Bal use some of the same style is very fitting with the two characters being very similar. Several examples of similarity include orcs, the Nazgul, and other minions being ruined forms of life, Mordor being desolate and inhospitable like Coldharbour is, and Sauron using a mace like Bal does, while being very deceptive and trying to take over the world. It's the exact same type of guy, just in a different world.

998K! Y’all are so close to that extremely well-deserved 1 million mark! Thank y’all for all your hard work!

Molag ballin 🏀

I have a new title for Molag-Bal: Lord of Demonetisation. Got to appreciate the struggle to speak about him whilst confirming to KZfaq standards haha.

Tamriel Exists Molag Bal: and I took that personally

My favourite Daedric Prince

So excited for ya'll to break 1 million!

Talking about lore from eso being applied to elder scrolls 6 can work to some degree. My opinion would be that the good lore from eso can be carried over easily enough and the cringe or bad lore can be part of the legends or tales told over a campfire not necessarily held as 'true' but just stories like the wig wearing scamps.

Tried posting this elsewhere but KZfaq is seemingly deleting the comments: There's a great post on the TESLore subreddit called "Theory: Molag Bal is in love with Meridia" and it adds a lot of depth and intrigue to the character. Would recommend it.

Molag Bal is the Dregh equivalent of Talos.

You guys are out of your mind the scamps in wigs is absolutely genius I love that

My theory is he the pain of natural selection or some shit. Because he was pretty chill with you foiling his plans in eso. He wants mortals to be stronger.

Ah, yes. The infamous ‘other’

great podcast guys keep up the good work

I always thought that the sotha sil smelled perfume because of azura being in cold harbor at the moment for the coldharbor compact. Sort of azura's influence seeping through.

how does Drew get his hair to look so good?

Sounds like the whoopee cushion incident had something to do with Sheogorath.

So close to a million boys, keep it up

Ah yes. The mighty prince of corruption and... Other things.

molag ballin

I'd like to hear FudgeMuppet's opinion on the VIGILANT mod

Blue flame=hotter only applies when talking about standard gas torches and related. Other than that, all sorts of colors of flame can be created depending on the material that is burning, or in other words, "the source of the energy". Much like how fire, created by restoration sun magic, destruction magic, and cold-harbor magic, all burns with different colors, as they are "drawing energy from different sources"

Also, Molag Bal x Azura is actually an interesting idea. Molag Bal represents shattered and overcompensated vanity, where Azura is vanity yet unbroken. Maybe when Molag Bal ruled Lyg, Azura and Molag Bal had more in common, and were married. Maybe Azura betrayed Molag Bal, which is why they're enemies now. They're toxic ex's.

Just the thing I needed

Ahhhh yes, somebody who actually deserves to be cancelled on twitter.

Molag Bal is the chaotic side of every human being on the planet he doesn’t see it as being evil it’s his nature so what’s evil to us is actually normal to him

Great podcast. Molag Bal seems to have a lot more information about him than any other of the Daedric Princes. Here is some food for thought with in regards to TES6. Majority of the Elder Scrolls games feature the main antagonist of the game as either a Daedric Prince or some sort of Demi-God type of creature. Not all of the games, but most of them. Though I would rather TES6 be my own theory on what the story would be, do you all think that we may get TES6 as another big bad Daedric Prince invasion type story? Excluding Arena and Daggerfall, the trend seems to be Demi-God, Daedric Prince, Demi-God... (Dagoth Ur, Mehrunes Dagon, Alduin) if so, you think we may get a Molag Val type invasion for TES6? Or are we all ESO Planesmeld exhausted?

I’m in a terrible position. I love listening these for the info but I listen to them every night as I sleep so now they’ve become a trigger for my brain to shut off. On the plus side for y’all, I have to do many listens to get all the info.

Almost a million subscribers lads

Lol this was halarious great vid guys

what a epic "spears" battle

Love your videos bro

For anyone who hasn't been lucky enough to smell a decaying corpse, it does have an almost sweet smell to it. Not a pleasantly sweet smell, but a putrid, sickly sweet smell. That could be the aroma that was described in Coldharbour.

Molag Ballin?

What I love about molag bal is that because of his crabby origins what others call corruption can easily be evolution or he could perceive it as molting your shell tofu a new environment. I imagine though as a mortal he would get sick of molting for his environment would want his environment to molt form him and his personality

An Elder Scrolls whoopie cushion: The bowel taken from a victim and filled with putrid air.

Daedric Prince of Corruption and other xD I wonder what the other could be

998K subscribers! Almost there guys!

Molag Bal puts the demon in demonitised

Always enjoy your podcasts only i wonder if you would do another one with allinal?

“Woopy cushions don’t belong in the elder scrolls.” -Michael 2021

Should have saved this one for podcast #69 hahah

I demand the whoopie cushion in ES6!!!

It's better to let your enemies suffers a little longer, than to grant them a swift end. Molag Bal thrives on them words.

“We’ll make sure we put it up” yea okay

My favorite daedric lord

I love these podcasts so much! ❤ Keep making them, guys!

my favourite molag ball quite is w

Currently have a "special" variety of vampire(modded) in Skyrim who hates Molag Bal and most vampires and will join the Dawnguard(again, thanks mods!) to oppose them. Also am playing his backstory as a Crusader in Oblivion. It's great!

I get so hyped for this podcast now that I went down a rabbit hole watching these

Mehrunes: "Smash! Burn! No worship! Worship Worms!" Molag: Manipulates whole kingdoms to wipe each other out and they will even thank him for it... "There is a apocalypse coming, my children do as I say and be spared..." (People Dying in squalor and pain) "Praise be to Molag Bal that we are the last to die, Praise be to Molag Bal that we won!" Yep, Dagon is the more terrifying of the two.

So close to 1m

Intro music 🔥🔥

I love the whoppie cousin

Ah molag bal... Clapper of the cheeks of Lamae

Can't wait for the announcement on what the million subscribers special will be from the guys

not to sound off, but all 3 of you have really nice eyes. Cool!

Ayy almost 1 Million Subs! Keep it up
