This video is hands down the weirdest thing I have ever made, and the further I go into TES lore the stranger it gets. There’s more I could have talked about in the video; Molag Bals old image being from a previous Kalpa, also Kalpa, a deeper dive into Vivec’s marriage to Molag Bal, The Pomegranate Banquet, Vivec calling Dreugh “Altmer of The Sea”, the list goes on. Also, Dreugh are mentioned elsewhere in the games, the Tsaesci invasion for example, but none of the parties involved mention Dreugh being present so I didn’t either, but maybe I should have…
@@Synonymous101 Yeah, that's the thing with *Elder Scrolls* lore: On the surface, it is like a lot of other western fantasy media... but the deeper you dive in, the more trippy it gets.
I really love the lore and aesthetics of Morrowind! It delved more into the bizarre and Lovecraftian than most other titles in the series and emersed us in a fantastical and otherworldly environment!
If you think the Dreugh are weird, wait till you find out about the Sload. Or that ape who broke time. And the Hist Trees. It's a fun, but really weird world.
For a long time I thought TES wasn't very interesting but once i started reading the in game books and played Morrowind, that notion was almost brutally removed. TES is one of the most bizarre, in-depth and often horrifying universes I've had the pleasure to learn all about! I usually read books for fantasy worlds but having this one be in mostly game form, is just so refreshing and fun
You can't deny the fact that you started with Fallout, which is a very positive thing. I was afraid that the stories would lose their dark touch, but I was wrong. Don't change it.
@@user-zp8kj2cl9g I won't explain here how well I know TES lore, it's pointless. Apparently you didn't understand me. His Fallout stories have a degree of darkness due to his voice, background music, and storytelling style. I wasn't sure if it would translate to TES, which is a completely different genre than Fallout.
Now I get Elder scrolls lore in this smooth voice also? Nice! I would love vidoes about the other continents, there is so little when it comes to good videos on this topic! The ape and cobra (I don`t know what they are called) races are very interesting.
After a few days of getting my heels nipped by slaughterfish, i was used to losing a few HP while swimming. Then one day I was swimming in sea along the edge of the island and to my horror, realised i was losing MUCH more health than normal. Nervous i had a pack of fish on my tail, i whirled around, steel in hand. As I did, one of these lashed me with a claw and I knew i was in deeper trouble than I had thought. I very nearly did not make it back to shore, but now I treat swimming in Morrowind with the fearful, wary respect the game deserves
I LOVE your videos. Now that i have your attentions. (Jk I love all your vids) But in all seriousness. I'd love a video of the subraces of tamriel. You know, any subrace of any 'main' race of tamriel. Sometimes they have huge lore!
The truth is that the dregah where infact an empire of a previous kalpa! Its perfectly possible for them to have been a civilised folk. It happened to aregonians. So why not them.
I always pronounced it "drew". "Gh" is often pronounced with a soft "h" and being after "eu" in a word one would think it would almost imperceptible, thus "drew".
I also say ‘drew’ but I’d argue ‘drek’ is better as an archaic in universe term. -gh still makes a k-like throaty sound in some English dialects. It even sounds like English ‘drag, *dreg’ or dredge, as in you were dreg into the sea.
I'm curious about the source of the pronunciation ("drek") you use. The closest I was ever able to find with your pronunciation is "dreg". The Unofficial Elder Scrolls website uses "dreg".

More TES lore? Yes please!
Give me a little kiss for getting into one of the greatest fantasy IP’s

If you can give us a series on the muatra then I'll be happy
If i remember correctly, the main writer for elder scrolls was high on mushroom at the time.
this elder scrolls lore just keep getting better

The sload are... interesting

Finally, the polish and quality only Synonymous can deliver is here, I can't wait for more Elder Scrolls lore videos. Pretty good stuff.
“Crab people crab people” ~ South Park
Look like crab, talk like people.
Craaaaab people, Craaaaab people.
Lmfao I used to sing this farming the Dreugh for Werewolf levels in ESO back in 2014.
Hell yeah. *Elder Scrolls* content at last.
Synonymous elder scrolls lore videos is not what I was expecting but definitely what I wanted thank you synonymous I can’t wait

My favorite fallout lore guy is doing elder scrolls lore now? I’m in
sweet glad you covered these creatures
ah yes, the Dreugh, part man, part octopus, part crab.
That perfectly describes my genitalia
I'm cereal you guys!!
Crab-people, crab-people.
Started fallout lore and was happy, subscribed when elder scrolls lore was added and was ecstatic!
Exploring Dreugh ruins could definitely be an idea for ES6.
Keep it up, this is enthralling!
Please melt my brain with a video about CHIM and Amranth
Elder scrolls lore ?! Sign me up 🤓🤭
🧙♂️
fr i’ll listen to some elder scrolls lore
Keep making these PLEASE!!! Sorry if I am just now coming back it has been a crazy week
Been wondering when you'd tackle some ES. Hope it's as fun working on them as it is for us to enjoy. Well done!
More of this please! Elder Scrolls lore is so weird and I love it.
These elder scrolls videos are excellent! I really appreciate the concise nature of your presentation. ♥️
Good work my man
Loving the elder scrolls work mate.
I will continue to like and comment every ES lore video you upload 🙏🏼
I appreciate that!
LOVE THIS! I can definitely get behind more Elder Scrolls and especially Oblivion
I forgot about these guys
Glad you're branching out into elder scrolls lore. Looking forward to more.
Elder Scrolls Lore with Synonymous’ voice? Yes yes yes!! Love it keep it up :))
Could you do a video on the history of the telvanni? Mushroom lovers!
I'll look into it :)
I’m incredibly excited for more Elderscrolls lore videos.
intriguing video, thank you.
Synonymous covering The Elder Scrolls??? Oh man, what a treat. You're in for a ride with TES lore!
Answering the question "What happens when Vivec sticks his 'spear' in a cthulu-punk deathclaw."
I LOVE your videos. Now that i have your attentions. (Jk I love all your vids) But in all seriousness. I'd love a video of the subraces of tamriel. You know, any subrace of any 'main' race of tamriel. Sometimes they have huge lore!
Elder Scrolls Lore, dude this will be amazing!!
Oh boy. Digging into TES lore is a trip. Hold on tight.
I can never forget how they came to be called billies
Morrowind related content after I've just started another playthrough?
Nice.
Honey wake up new syn lore
Hell yeah loving this direction to Elder Scrolls lore
The truth is that the dregah where infact an empire of a previous kalpa! Its perfectly possible for them to have been a civilised folk.
It happened to aregonians. So why not them.
Keep up the elder scrolls lore I’ll watch
Morrowind is one of my fav games of all time. I loved it when it came out back in the day. Still play it now and then.
In-depth video on CHIM when?
Good video i m a huge fallout nerd but this is tbh really fun to watch and intresting maybe i sould give this game a try after all
If you ever feeling like taking a break from mainline Bethesda, check out Brink.
I always pronounced it "drew". "Gh" is often pronounced with a soft "h" and being after "eu" in a word one would think it would almost imperceptible, thus "drew".
According to the developer who first created them, dreugh is pronounced dreg.
@@Synonymous101 I know. I have since heard that. I just always thought it sounded wrong.
@@SinEater_ I used to think it was "drow", at least your explanation for dreugh made sense lol
@@Synonymous101 Drow makes sense if you link them to the dark elves of D&D...
Great vid, thanks!
I've always pronounced Dreugh like "drew." Am I the only one, or are there even weirder ways of pronouncing it?
I also say ‘drew’ but I’d argue ‘drek’ is better as an archaic in universe term. -gh still makes a k-like throaty sound in some English dialects. It even sounds like English ‘drag, *dreg’ or dredge, as in you were dreg into the sea.
Wonder who would win in a fight between a dreugh and a mirelurk.
A dreugh bc a they can use magic and a number of debuff spells. A mirelurk of the same class does not stand a chance.
You made it easier to understand than Drewmora.😄
One of most dangers Daedric artifacts is
The Ruddy Man
The power to take the form Molag Bals becoming a dem-god
Dreugh are the only race in the lore I'd be scared of. We understand the Sload, Tsaeci, Mer and Man but the Dreugh are both powerful and a mystery.
For one of your upcoming videos can you go into the Elder Scrolls version of the Lleviathan?
Please do more Elder Scrolls content :)
where did you find the source for the grom bottles? I can't find anything about it
Fantos Epilion writes about it in his journal.
ES lore! LETS GO!
I’ve never played the elder scrolls.
It’s really good fam
More content yay!
what a awe inspiring fictional creatures
Yes plz more of es lore ^^
Do the sload next.
Everyone either starts in fallout and ends up in the elder scrolls or vice versa haha!
So there's no crab claw on the Dreugh? Im not tripping?
I find it difficult to get into skyrim lore. So I hope you do more cause i wanna learn more!
Is there a possibility for you to make The Witcher/Cyberpunk Lore videos in the future?🥺
Hell yeah, brother.
I'm curious for Elders lore if there is enough for doing one about skooma, cuz funny cat getting high as heck.
These Silly Billys are very dangerous.
Sounds like the reverse of what happens when you mate with Dagon
10:04
but the ashlanders don't even believe the ruddy man ever existed, they think Vivec made it up
The way they spell that name, dreugh, makes absolutely no sense when spoken. Drek/Drak. Easy. Dreugh would sound like drooahhh.
Take it up with the creator.
We’re so back
I'm curious about the source of the pronunciation ("drek") you use. The closest I was ever able to find with your pronunciation is "dreg". The Unofficial Elder Scrolls website uses "dreg".
Am I not saying dreg? 😅
At the end of this video I realized I didn’t actually understand any of it lol
MY ELDER SCROLLS ITCH IS BEING SCRATCHED *Spongebob screaming image*
What's the background music for this video?
>he didn't talk about the milk fingers
Dreugh? Never even met her
ELDER SCROLLS LORE LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOO
So .. could we boil and eat them?
Maybe its just me but doesn’t Synonymous have an eerily similar voice to FilmComics Explained?
AINT NO WAY
So the dreugh got falmored
Used to pick these little dudes out of my ex wifes bush
I only always pronounced it as "drew"
*CRAAAAB PEOPLE!*
Huh. I always thought it was pronounced "drow". 🤷🤷
Blue claw matron still sucks!
Theres no way its actually pronounced like 'Dreck'.
Engagement bait? It worked I guess.
Dreg...
Elder scrolls lore lfg
It's pronounced Dreg, where do you get the K?
Must be an accent thing
👋🫶🤝❤️
NERD ALERT !!! 🗣
