I hate Dwemer. -_-
Or more precisely, I hate their thrice darned creations that keep trying to either maul me, or steamed me with hot steam, or trying to turn me into a pincushion of Dwemer arrows and bolts.

Nords=Vikings (duh)
Bretons= Greeks
Imperials = Romans
Dunmer=Siam/Khmer empires
Bosmer= Celts
Red guards = Songhai (a African empire)
Khajit = Egypt/Arabia
Altmer = feudal Japan
Orcs = The mongols

Imagine how things would be if they were still all alive.... building and shit...

Maybe they are? o.O I mean, the cause of their disappearance was never get solved. Maybe one of their invention managed to see the future, and then they saw Alduin coming to Skyrim... and they be like: "F*ck this shit. Let's get out of here." And then they built like a dimension hopping machine or something and pulled a Dr. Who with their whole race?

.... I need coffee... xD

I doubt they would be afraid of Alduin at all... They were REALLY strong in the art of technology and they were getting close to surpassing even the Deadra gods (which surpasses their tribunal). I'm rather shocked that the Dunmer were able to even stand five second's worth of a fight against the Dwemer.

I like the dimension theory but I don't believe that they did it. I think they practically said "Fuck the nine, Fuck the gods, fuck the tribunal and fuck you Azura" and Azura got sick of their shit and wiped them all out. either killing them and trapping their souls in another dimension until necromancers came to revive them.

Huh... I wonder if Necromancers reviving the Dwemer might become part of TES Series? xD That would be awesome.

[Drakel]

they supposedly revive as ghosts... There aren't even bones left or anything left of the dwemer if I'm correct so it's likely that the most a necromancer could do is some seance shit to talk to them.

What I think would be interesting as hell is the Falmer. Because the Falmer all STILL live in Dwemer ruins/cities, imagine if the snow elves after another 200+ years became the new Dwemer and continued the Dwemer experiments while keeping (or going back to) their old religious heritage... Tis would be scary as hell.

What I think would be interesting as hell is the Falmer. They supposedly lived in "Harsh conditions" and became blind by those conditions yet they all always live in the ruins of Dwemer cities... which to me isn't that harsh of an environment but w/e... The point I'm making is, because the Falmer all live in Dwemer ruins/cities, imagine if the snow elves after another 200+ years became the new Dwemer and continued the Dwemer experiments while keeping (or going back to) their old religious heritage... Or the actual snow elves barely survive because of doing this... Either way works and both would be scary as hell.

The Snow Elves agreed to eat a fungus that would make them blind as a condition of the dwemer housing and protecting them from the wrath of the Nords, who were hell bent on wiping them out. Countless years of torture and slavery broke them into the degenerate horrors you see in the game. It had nothing to do about being shaped by the environment itself, but rather by the machinations of the dwemer.

Also, in Dawnguard, you meet which might be the very last two Snow Elves in Tamriel. The one tells you pretty much what happened to his people. Most of the surviving Snow Elves were slaughtered by the feral falmer in the end, and I doubt the falmer are going to figure out how dwemer technology works, let alone create it, since most researchers from intelligent, non-feral races barely understand the scope of their designs.

Yeah I just learned that top part when I was looking up the names of those two snow elves... (why I made the edit lol :p)

Though they aren't the last of their kind since I remember there being some mention of a village/colony of the remaining snow elves somewhere else in Tamriel. Though for that final part, the Falmer were slaves of the Dwemer and worked for them for a long time so while they might not be intelligent to the other races I do believe that they might know than the other races since they were the closest... not to mention that the other races have not only few people interested in the dwemer technologies, but that few are also kept at bay thanks to the dwemer creations while the Falmer continuously live in those ruins and don't really have much to worry about when it comes towards the dwemer traps and machines since they already have a rebuilt society INSIDE those ruins. I'm not saying that it'll take days but I do think that around the next 200-500 Years of living in the dwemer cities, they should learn rather quickly and become advanced enough to at least mimic some of those technologies. It'll be a very slow and long process but I think it'll eventually happen if we don't have the Dragonborn come in and wipe them all out of every Dwemer ruins first.

After all, there is a huge difference between a hand full of researchers who can't even get inside where they NEED to be, and are basically standing in a good, far distance studying, and several cities full of a tribal race living inside those cities and stand right next to those machines. The chances of the latter learning something from the dwemer ruins just seems a lot higher than the few scientists on the out side in my opinion. :/

Well, it's safe to say that the Falmers won't figure out how most machinery work anytime soon in the Dragonborn timeline since they're mostly still animal like in their behavior.
But given time (possibly hundreds if not thousand years), I think it's not a stretch to think that they might slowly recover their intelligence.

Still, from what I know of the Falmers' history and how they came to be, I'll just say that it definitely added to my dislike of Dwemer.

Most of the mer races really do not like one another at all. They always had this huge circle of hatred for one another and they tended to always fight one another. Though in my opinion all races of mer are horrible in one way or another.

[Cpt Toellner]

I believe that the Dwemer, using the Heart of Lorikhan, ascended from the mortal plane and departed Nirn to wander the stars. I hope we never see them again, they are gone, but their legacy remains.

Did you forget that Alduin was the Eater of Worlds and that Dwemer were Tamriel's equivalent of Dwarves? It might have taken some time, but Alduin could have easily destroyed the world if the Dwemer were still around, sending their automatons at it and also blocking the path for the Dovahkin. As we've seen in the games the Automatons attack without discretion, and I severely doubt the Dwemer would program them to not kill the previously faceless Dragonborn when approached. It's basically a 'stall the only thing that can kill it while trying to kill it' situation.
