    The Elder Scrolls: Why no Dwarves in TES

    I am not able to understand that why this is so. I was wishing to hear regarding Bethesda adding this like a race within the upcoming Skyrim, except as much as I know they are maintaining the standard 10 races. I don’t think that this is ever discussed before this as I already searched for this on internet but not got any result. So can you tell me if there is there is any possibility for this or not. I hope we will have a great discussion.

    I feel really conflicted about the Dwemer back in any way. On the one hand, I like the mystery that surrounds them. They are very interesting for me and I think if that solves the mystery that will take away some of the appeal. On the other hand, are my favorite breed Dwemer Tamrielic and I can say, their beliefs and personalities generally agree a lot with mine, and that seem very interesting judging by the conceptual art and ghosts. I love to play this one.

    If I had to choose, I would opt for the Dwemer. Although I wish there was a way to solve the mystery of his disappearance for sure, but only those who study deep into their culture and the ruins of both Morrowind and Skyrim and studying books and translate languages and all that only those who do these things will be able to solve and there is also a TES wikis in the Imperial Library or forums of any allowed to talk about it so that only those who did the work to know for sure. I'm happy with the mystery, and I'm excited about what should be learned from the Dwemer of Skyrim, however small it may be new information.

    The dwarf called Dwemer were a race of human height where they had beards only in advanced technology, and gone nowhere is all that remains is its machines, cities, weapons and armor. I like Oblivion, which they call Dwemer dwarves, and almost no as they are, and we have no idea that they are only the past, we expect to find in this game and not the number of races left in 10, in addition to could not 't be a dwarf, they are all dead.

    If you mean the typical dwarf then I'm glad those who were never incorporated into the Elder Scrolls. I hate all the dwarf / warrior concept of D and D would not mind if the dwarfs were normal characters like gnomes, or maybe something craftsman, but not really fight or anything. For me, the idea just seems a bit stupid. Gimli, Lord of the Rings, the Dwarf is about all I could bear. And that was just because it was fun, I still did not like the idea that it was half the size of a man, but was able to fight off hordes of orcs.

    If you ever played Morrowind, you'd find plenty of clues but no definitive answer as to what finally happened. Apparently made any attempt to transcend mortality, and vanished in the midst of the battle of Red Mountain, according to experts Telvanni wizards on the subject. Nobody is quite sure whether it works or not, and circumstantial evidence is inconclusive.

    The Dwemer were one of three races vying for control of Morrowind in ancient history. The other was the Nords of Skyrim and the Chimer, pilgrims who broke off from the ancestors of Altmer. The Chimer eventually won the war and became Dunmer. The Dwemer disappeared by trying to make themselves Gods..or maybe they succeeded. It's impossible to tell what happened as there are multiple conflicting reports. They never were short. They were about the same height as Dunmer, with golden skin and long curled beards. They were only called Dwarves by a race of giants who once lived near them but who are now extinct or who moved someplace else.
