here is my definitive guide to fucking a daedric prince

first things first: they are not corporeal by default, they just can look humanoid if they feel like it. i understand the impulse to go jaunting off into the Evergloam like "ooOOO tiddies" but you are guaranteed nothing of the sort.

secondly: physically touching a god is not good for your health. average scenario is you wind up like your permafried weedman from college. which frankly, like... whatever. acceptable imo. If you have been kinder to your brain cells than I, you may want to think twice.

third, the daedra have pioneered heretofore undiscovered methods of fucking. you might be in for a nice human-style night of things going in/near holes, or you might be up for some incomprehensible Lilliths Brood shit. it's a coin toss and you don't get to decide where it lands but that's what you signed up for.

lastly, you gotta consider the spheres.

  • boethiah, malacath, mehrunes dagon, hircine, meridia: rough raw nasty sloppy sweaty woah sorry i blacked out there for a second. Probably fatal but what a way to go out
  • sheogorath, clavicus vile, peryite, namira: highly baroque kink. it's gonna be a whole production. bear in mind that they have eternity for elaborate foreplay while you do not. You're gonna have to top from the bottom if you want to get off before you're a hundred years old. good luck with that.
  • azura, mephala, nocturnal: ideal if your sexuality is abstract and esoteric. you will nut harder than you ever have nutted in your life, yet have no idea how it happened
  • vaermina, hermaeus mora, sanguine: you might not like what you find out about yourself. too bad! it's your whole thing now and nothing else will do
  • jyggalag: 90 seconds of missionary PIV, which is adequate for the purposes of reproduction

*bangs gavel* i hereby declare my post complete, my logic faultless, and my person objectively correct. I will hear no further arguments

The morals of Forspoken include being kind to oneself and others, giving damaged people a second chance, and that if you get pissed off enough you can transform into a dragon and nuclear blast the earth, leaving a crater so huge and scorched that nothing will ever grow there again

under the category of things that decidedly do not bother me, though: for once the wild sexual dimorphism of an alien race is great and not annoying. i genuinely love that the nightbrothers are so brightly colored compared to merrin & running around with their tits out while she's covered head to toe in fabric. absolute bird of paradise behavior A+++++

i'm back on kashyyyk for my 'actually explore everywhere this time and at least attempt to 100%' playthrough and I can't do this any longer. please for the love of god will someone make the wookie language(s) make sense to me. WHY are the names for everything filled with sounds that wookies Do Not Make In Any Context.

because based on just what they sound like, it's an extremely vowel-heavy language, right? the sound design is good enough that they've actually gotten a pretty broad vowel range out of remixed animal noises! I can easily assume that it's a heavily tonal and durational language too, so it's not too much for me to accept that the "3 'y's everywhere" thing is some human-created diacritic to indicate, i don't know, rising pitch or something, or that what sounds like the same two aaauauauauaugh noises to Me A Human would sound wildly different to an actual wookie. (I mean, that's a very very very common thing even between earth languages.) functionally it is an almost entirely aconsonantal language. the only consonants In The Actual Sounds These People Make are nasals and trills. the examples add labial plosives and a velar (p, b, g) but we never really actually hear those.

i know this is star wars and the actual answer is "it's not that deep," but also, this is star wars. it's the damn deity of taking something that isn't that deep and coming up with some elaborate, batshit stupid reason to make it that deep.

someone explain wookie orthography to me. it's driving me nuts.
