The Imga are actually a race of men who successfully returned to Monke through the power of Vivec.

The absence of The Monke from the games is criminal and unforgivable.

"imca is so adept at hiding from responsibility" well that's relatable

2:11 I heard that the Imga at the top left corner with the red tie fought off an entire army of invading Argonian's who tried to steal his banana hoard.

The Reachmen associate Peryite with time, rigid natural order, and draconic imagery like the Mer do with Auri-El and the Men do with Akatosh. Could this mean that Peryite is another aspect of the fractured Dragon God?

Harambe was saddened by humanity, but he was disappointed by the Imga. He has no comment on the elves.

THE MAN DOESN'T MISS ON HIS CHOICE OF VIDEO TOPICS, GOODNESS ME

Hey Marukh! What did Alessia say? "Ooh ee oh ah ah ting tang walla walla big bang" All right! *massacres elves*

That Donkey Kong joke smoothly slipped into a serious video is gold! Drew my man, you know how to entertain as well as enlighten me greatly with your videos. This channel deserves to get as big as the good ol' Fudgemuppet, if not bigger.

Did you just call the brain a ,,concept organ"? fucking brilliant

Videos like this are why Drew has always been my favorite of the FudgeMuppet crew. He writes and narrates this beautiful script, but then slips in a pic of Donkey Kong with the Imga for no reason. 😂 Drewmora is the best kind of subtle wise ass.

Ah, Tamriel.... where they multiversed before multiversing was cool.

This race is so comically cowardly, one might even theorize that they perhaps were once too powerful and were maybe cursed to be the antithesis of their previous splendor after Marukh. Maybe after the dragonbreak they "had always been like that".

BETHESDA, PROMOTE THIS MAN TO LORE MASTER PRIME

"What should we call this era of history?" "How about 'Going Ape Shit?" "..... god dammit, Gerry."

My mind was so blown with that Shor/Akatosh heresy.

If we ever do go to High Rock, and meet the remnants of the Direnni Hegemony, I hope the Marukhati Selective make a surprise appearance. They sound like the Thalmor, but for men instead of mer.

Super recommend playing the mod Vigilant if you wanna see some Alessian Order and Marukh lore in Skyrim

Honestly this is one of the best thumbnails I’ve ever seen

Drew, I often find that when I see your videos my imagination is sent on powerful paths, with my own stories and characters. Inspired by the media you produced regarding stories near and dear to many of us. Thanks once again for a great one. I very much enjoy seeing these on a Sunday, one of the best ways to spend the day relaxing for me.

Please tell us more about the role of Shezzar and Akatosh in society, and about the dragonbreaks!

I do wonder if Marukh actually saw Alessia or wether he was just one crazy monke

Its honestly sad that the apes can't just venture out and release themselves from the craving of attention they seek from the high elves.

The Marukhati Selective really broke Time just to attack Auriel in his very Aspect of Time, to tear him apart for the sake of their human vision of Akatosh. Lorkhan's scheme in Marukh's dream by coming to him as Allesia shows he had no intention on letting Men and Mer live together in the Heart of Tamriel such as Alessia worked for... leading to the Allesian Order to such oppression that Man and Mer in High Rock and Skyrim had to ally with one another to end it. Laloriaran Dynar and his remaining Ayleid Elves, the Direnni Elves and their Breton Vassals, and the Nordic High King and his people as well. The Battle of Glenumbra Moors did good in sundering the Order from outside Cyrodil. Notice that Auriel had no will among the Mer to continue war with Man, but Lorkhan took the opportunity of a "cosmopolitans" ideal of Allesia to betray the allied Ayleids that once aided the Nedes in Rebellion against their more reprehensible Kin who turned their back on most of their Aedric Ancestors... "All are guilty until proven innocent" is also likely what Shor begat on his Nordic people when they slaughtered all Mer and even some Men in all sorts of manner in Northern Tamriel. Lorkhan truly is a God of Choice. Granted, there is good and evil on both sides of the Dichotomy, and then there's the extremists such as these who take it too far.

I recently discovered your channel and i must say that is a really really hidden gem, your videos are so complete and well made that doesn't seem that your channel is relatively new, your skills are pro-level and i think i must congratulate you for them. ¡Amazing content out here guys!

If Bethesda were to write all of the elder scrolls in to one book I wonder how thick said book would need to be.lol

Time travel, time breaking, monkeys? Sounds like the Elder Scrolls/12 Monkeys cross over we didn't know we needed. Initiate CHIM sequence!

Thank you for your hard work! Your videos are truly a gift ❤️

Recognise that art style anywhere. Nuice to see Skele still getting art in skyrim vids

TL;DR - Humanity returns to Monke and breaks time.

Just when I thought I knew all the races of tamriel I hear about this out of left field! Monkey King analogue??? My God.

I love your voice so much, and your research is impeccable. Thank you. For all my sleepless nights, this is so relaxing that I can fall asleep visualizing the tales you tell.

2:10 this reminds me of that commercial for Donkey Kong 64 where the police officer holds up a police sketch of Donkey Kong saying "We believe one of them looks like this"

Artist interpretation of the impga: *Donkey Kong 😂

If they ever added a new playable race I think it would be pretty fun to play as these Apes, weird yes but could be pretty fun {Love the videos Drew}

I would love to learn more about Dragon Breaks, so I eagerly await your future videos on the subject.

Just in time to have Saturday our way and dive ourselves again in the unavoidably interesting waters of Hermaeus Mora and his earthly minions. Thank you ♪

This is rad as heck.

I think I once posted something on an Alduin video about how this dragon break may be the reason why Alduin went from consumer of all to dominator. It seems to have literally ripped the time and dragon aspect from Auri'el and given them to a newly created aspect called Akatosh. It makes some sense in that most of the Auri'el's imagery seems more hawk/eagle inspired and the powers have more to do with the energy/light. Also Alduin and Parthanax specifically say Alduin is first-born of Akatosh not Auri'el. This may mean in previous Kalpas Alduin was an aspect/child of Auri'el who wanted to consume and destroy Lorkhan and his creation, but now in the current Kalpa Alduin has been corrupted and and placed under a god that champions man, and this god being a champion of man and "creator of the world willingly" created other champions to destroy Alduin.

I hope elder scrolls media would cover this race more soon!❤️

"I could say more about..." Well, please do say more.

It’s fun that one of the more absurd races in the Elder Scrolls produced one of Tamriel’s most important historical figures.

I have a theory that Marukh served as a vessel for mans hatred of the elves through a snowballing effect of "monkey see monkey do". Marukh would emulate mans hatred for the elves, then would inspire more hatred through his words, and then emulate that, snowballing until eventually his xenophobia got to as bad as it was. Essentially, Marukh, by witnessing and learning mans hatred, became the vessel of all the hate of man for mer and became venerated as a prophet by emulating that hatred due to the Imgas culture of "monkey see monkey do" like we see nowadays with the imga and High Elves, how they emulate their culture and behaviours, and even xenophobia towards man. I hope any of that makes sense haha

Loving the new channel King

The donkey Kong pic lmaoo

My headcanon is that Alessia didn't contact Marukh and she didn't give him the Chim-El Adabal, but in truth the "Alessia" who appeared to him was a creation from Molag Bal and the stone in truth was a powerful soul gem that devoured the souls - part of or completely - of those who followed his - Marukh's - teachings. Like, why would Alessia make Marukh or anybody for that matter, write her teachings in blood? Wasn't her true teachings the very Pantheon she appeared to abandon when she "talked" with Marukh? The Middle Dawn could've happened because Akatosh "broke" when he saw the very same people he helped free, trying to destroy a part of him.

Damn! Great Vid! Seriously set me thinking...

Incredible as always, love the topic of choice!! Vigilant mod brought light to the Marhuk story for me

This is my favourite tidbit of elder scrolls lore

Always love your videos Drew keep up the hard work!

Those artistic interpretations are really quite accurate, especially the one on the upper left.🧐👍

Drewmaister, whatever topic you pick you deliver it better than a Chris Nolan movie. I love all I these. I feel like many I these amazing lore dense topics are more speculation and wonder I all of the fans like us than the actual stuff they put into work. Like all the loops we speculate then to be something within the lore but it was just something the authors left out or didn't continue on and let it blank for the fans to fill in. Either way I love these. When you said that the empire extended into the stars I thought of how what if fallout and starfield I all part I the same universe in different timelines haha love your content

I didn’t know I needed this, but apparently I do now

Stephen Wolfram wrote a proof this year stating essentially that time itself is a quantum superposition of multiple states called 'branchial history' which is dependent on external observation. That means that simultaneously all possible realities are occuring within the same finite space, we're just limited by our collective perception to a singular point within that timeline. I imagine that our awn history has had more than a few dragonbreaks lost to time if such is the case. Reality is what we perceive it to be, afterall.

I got flashbacks from ''Have you heard''

Thanks for the video, Drew. This was a great one!

This is amazing

I appreciate the Rogan reference in the description 🤣👏❤

amazing videos

I hope we one day get an Elder scroll game based on 1st era. I really like all the lore about Alessia, Pélinal, Maruhk etc..

Had this in my recommendations for a week before I realised it wasn't about NFTs.

Dude I loved Imga Kong on my Super Nintendo.

Take a shot everytime Drew says "one".

There is much wisdom to be learned from the monkey....

ooof, thought this was going to be a narration by Frieza of all the dumb shit i did in Skyrim.

Listening to this again and I'm wondering why your sub count is so low. This channel is such quality. (Psst there's a typo in the initial chapter title, looks like YT autocorrected XD)

Finally ditched those lovers eh.

Ngl, Drew was my favorite member so a dedicated channel is awesome 👌

I like how Alyssia could just tell people Auriel and Shor were one guy meanwhile Monke boi and the Puritans have to rewrite time instesd of just, like, outlawing the worship of Akatosh and reinstituting Shor.

i absolutely love this story - a group decide that God is a certain way, mantle the aurbis to discover they were wrong, and so they literally just break God into several pieces until they can say they're right

I'm going backwards through the fudge muppet podcasts and forgot you had left. As I'm new to fudge I found your channel today and subbed instantly. Well done keep up the great work 👍 going to watch all your videos.

Did you used to do fudge muppet bro? I know your voice 100%

Drew back at it again with the catching video title! I'm hyped already

Really does raise more questions. Is the staff/tower related to the towers of Nirn which stabilize the world? Will the answer be revealed in TES VI assuming that they follow up on the Thalmor wanting bring down the towers? Will we be able to be monke?

Thanks for everything you do for us .. Appreciate yah ..!

I want see them as playeble race on TES VI

Sounds like normal life

Okay bro, the pic of Donkey Kong got me. Earned a new subscription! Best of luck on your channel, high quality content.

Always makes my day when you post a video.

I’m ashamed I missed this one. Loved the topic. Amazing channel keep up the great work as always! By the Nine Devines stay on the roads, it’s the daedra you see.

Imga playable race es6!!!! I need this

Mr. Drew. I know I am late in reviewing your video but, again (I feel like I'm repeating myself, oh, wait, I am), I find your videos the most entertaining of any I have seen. This one caught me off guard though. As many times as I've played (emphasizing, PLAYED, not studied) Skyrim, the only true mention I've had of Imga's was a book I read in Skyrim and then I saw it on someone's playthrough on Moonpath to Elswyre (did I spell that correctly). I wasn't even aware they held any major (or minor) role. I learn so much from your videos, please keep it up. You are absolutely AWESOME at telling these stories and I love to listen to you. Thank you.

My favorite of the Fudgemuppet boys returns, reaching for the old writings with more than hands.

The vigilant mod should be canon.

Return to Monke.

Don't tell Lord Frieza.

Hey drew when you next do an elden ring video can yo adress one of the best characters from has made in all their games, Maliketh the black blade?

first heard about marukh in the vigilant mod, thought he was made up for the mod

if you'd told me you were still going to do TES content i would have just subscribed from day one, but you made it seem it would mostly be elden ring stuff. good to see you're not completely out of the game then, it would be a bit silly with that name.

This was legit so interesting, I never knew this about them, but I’m also very forgetful 😅

i want this race as a mod on ps5

The Temple of the Ape Divines

Monkeys and apes different my guy

elder scrolls 6 revolves around the imga. every quest will be monkey themed in some way

Love those "artist interpretations".

lolol Donkey Kong

ah so bethesda softworks implemented their own staff team (specifically customer support) into the elder scrolls lore

TLDR: return to monkeee

all bow to the monkey king....for he is gracious and wise, all bow for he provides..... lolz we are not a monkey cult but this is good stuff lol
