The fact that you managed to create a character that looks like just a normal dude not just for PC (player character) standards, but more normal than most Oblivion NPC's is deeply unsettling.
You kidnapped the Heart of Lorkan using a Guild Mage that you pulled from across Vvardenfell and destroyed the Heart with a Merchant wielding the tools of gods. And yet the fact that Chipmonk looks like a normal human using the Oblivion character creator is easily the most impressive thing you have shown us. We are in awe.

its crazy how much more comfortable you sound on the mic than you did when i first started watching you. i feel like a proud parent when you make jokes about fingers and mountains.
The fact that Skyrim's Dawnguard DLC reintroduces undead-summoning spells in the Soul Cairn implies that the undead are being summoned from the Soul Cairn or other places in Oblivion that have undead running around, rather than being Daedra.
@@kiptheott the only way to get sent to the soul cairn is to have your soul captured in a black soul gem and then used for enchanting. They ARE dead but not in the normal sense.
@@TiredRoman It's technically a realm and/or pocket dimension for soul trapped souls for eldritch necromancer beings (technically not daedric gods, they were probably men or mer once ages ago, but not anymore; daedra adjacent sure ig, just not actually) feeding off those souls' power, the other stuff like the skeletons are just manifestations of their power, us conjuring their skeles to mundus isn't like normal daedric summoning because the skeles aren't actually daedra. tl;dr: us willing the skeles into mundus isn't technically "daedric summoning" since they're not actually daedra, it's more us conjuring already conjured stuff outside the pocket dimension the conjured stuff's in.
12:10 monks in DnD were originally introduced as a way of fulfilling the fantasy of Chinese martial arts movies in the game, letting you defeat enemies with your bare hands like Bruce Lee. Lots of games borrow the concept (like with the rest of DnD) and I think today people confuse the term “monk” with their preconception of a medieval Gregorian scribe, or instead of the eastern Xiao Lin monks that originally inspired the class.
I realized this sometime well after I originally played Oblivion and once I eventually came back to the class select screen, I was very amused by the art of Friar Heinrich putting dukes up lol
Fun fact: in the now discontinued pc dnd videogame "sword coast legends" there's an npc companion you can recruit that's actually a good guy necromancer. It's played kinda as a joke but the guy felt like a compelling quirky hero, no brooding anti hero
Props for showing the versatility of Oblivion's character creator. You did a good job recreating the morrowind face! Also enjoyed the little rant about Volanaro and J'skar.
@@TheBaca219 Eh, I've always managed to make normal looking people with it. Key word being normal, not supermodel. It is very fussy and unintuitive though, I know, and it takes too long for most players to want to try. That's a flaw.
For the summoning of the undead via conjuration as opposed to necromancy. Both use powers from the realm of oblivion but with conjuraiton spells, you haven't cast the soul of a man/mer/etc into the soul cairn or oblivion just so you can reanimate it or use it, which on the other hand, necromancers do. So it's sorta like buying meat from a supermarket as opposed to hunting it yourself, at least in my understanding.
So useful tip for the Ring of Burden quest: You can use the "drag" button(idk what it is on PC) to drag the corpse, or the ring itself if you're willing to spot its tiny size in the well, to the entrance outside your inventory Pick it up, room transition, drop and drag it to the Guild, repeat till you are in position to drop it off for quest completion Meanwhile in "niche Oblivion knowledge", standing in the shade, or being underwater, halves Sun Damage!

I was saddened that light armor wasn't allowed since I never see the Bands of Kwang Lao get used. Also, even if you couldn't use the bands, you could've stood by the two people training at the arena to get an extra 5 points in h2h. Keep up the great work, I love the videos!

I must correct you on Telvanni, we actually do like to work alone AND we're assholes. Less research partners means less splits to the glory and profits as well as less differing moralities to negotiate, and having peers review your studies is cringe and does not follow Veloth's teachings. No I am not fun at parties, I do not like them.
Plus the fact that videos exist offend me as Telvanni. We would definitely not allow a non-magical or incompetent sorcerer to become an archmagister. Not if you don't have power...
I ran monk in Oblivion. Vampirism too. There's no reason hand to hand is as good as it is. I can't believe it's better in Morrowind. I bent the whole game with these hands, and it was a great time. Hurts your repair a little bit, but you're a monk.
You always have such cool challenge runs!! Im so excited to watch this one! I actually started playing morrowind because of you. Hopefully I'll get to play some oblivion soon :> Thank you for creating :)
Perfect timing, I can use it as background noise (pun absolutely intended and painfully obvious, I will not apologise) while I go to sleep, and then actually watch it later. Very cool and pooglers.
Conjuration in elder scrolls works by pulling deadra from their realm of existence (like oblivion for example) into our realm (temporarily)... Bound armour/weapon spells trap a deadra into an object temporarily...
On the topic of monks and healing or alteration magic in dnd. If i remember right; monks was introduced in mid-late first edition dnd was a lose combination of cleric and rogue it was at the time also somewhat connected to the mystic aesthetic. This was changed on and of in edition, but around 4th edition for monk to become psionics instead of their previous holy-esk theme. (that is if I remember right) So if that is their inspiration it makes a least a bit more sense
This is hands down one of your funnier videos. The Fingers of The Mountain and Dagail's necklace jokes had me bursting out laughing. Take my like JBN, you earned it.
19:27 It's exactly how you describe. Illusion works the same as Alternation, by altering the world to your will, but the "truth" is visible only by the caster and the target. You basically convince the target or nearby people that something is different that is in reality, for example you make a target think they cannot move, they cannot speak (Silence), they hear voices (Sound) or you are harder to hit (Sanctuary). Alternation physically change things recognized by anyone and is bound by laws of nature, like making things heavier is heavier for everyone. Paralysis in Skyrim being Alternation physically renders target unable to move, while being Illusion makes the target think they cannot move.
From what I can read from the wiki you can buy items without raising mercantile, but not for spells. You also gain xp from selling. Tldr: buying items is okay, selling is not.
I did a run in Oblivion where I played a Redguard and wore the Ring of Burden throughout the game. My end goal was to do the Knights of the Nine quest to get the boots of Stendarr. Used a Warhammer because Stendarr's Hammer isnt in Oblivion.
Conjuration in any capacity in the elder scrolls summons a dedra and forces it to take the shape of what you want weapons and armor and undead included
I did once complete the Mages' Guild as a hand-to-hand character and yep, Mannimarco cannot take a punch. :D I hope a future task in Oblivion takes you through the Thieves' Guild after being Arch Mage because I always loved doing that. It's funny. XD
Every time you mention paralyzing someone with a kiss I imagine Chipmonk doing the kiss on the cheek and continuing to fight like Liquid Snake in MGS4.
Awesome video as always but I nearly spat my Pepsi out when Raminus was on the ledge and you said "Hmmm not sure how I feel about this angle." as it zooms in and you're waste high with him. haha
There is one good, law abiding necromancer in Tamriel Rebuilt and I was blown away to find this out when I found them. The Mage's Guild has some really good quests in TR, even if their guild guide network is a mess.
13:00 You said it! You actually said it. You used the word sapient! I'm flabbergasted. Thank-you for caring enough to know the meanings of the words you want to use instead of using the word 'sentient' to describe a being with human-level intellect. Much love.

Chipmonk looks so much like just a guy I didn't realize it was Oblivion at first.
I'm still in awe of the fact that you look like Patches irl.
You’re one of my favorite comfort UA-camrs. Keep up the great work!
"Will there ever be a good necromancer who isn't a brooding antihero?"
Sorceress from Dragon's Crown. Rocking rack too.
My God, I really like your videos.
When I saw this new one in my feed, I immediately was like "Oooh! What is it will be this time?"
The fucking double slam at 29:45 was the fastest subscription I ever made
I love your videos so much man I could seriously watch them all day.
Oblivion: the best Elder Scrolls game after Morrowind and before Skyrim. I mean that in all possible ways. Classic game. Quality video.
Chipmunk is gonna need a shirt of all his incarnations if he keeps this up. Great vid
"Raminus Polus" sounds like he's familiar with Dibella, too.
Giggity.
daddy JBN serving us with another hot load of ES content!
There is one good, law abiding necromancer in Tamriel Rebuilt and I was blown away to find this out when I found them. The Mage's Guild has some really good quests in TR, even if their guild guide network is a mess.
19:30 guards guards hes broken the law he is levitating
13:00 You said it! You actually said it. You used the word sapient! I'm flabbergasted. Thank-you for caring enough to know the meanings of the words you want to use instead of using the word 'sentient' to describe a being with human-level intellect. Much love.
Just recently found your channel, to have well ... background noise ... while modding Skyrim, and love the content/commentary. Almost done with tweaking my mod list etc. (hopefully) so I'll have to find other things to do while watching your videos. Keep up the great work
The mages guild in oblivion in a nutshell. Fetch back our library.
39:29 My favorite part of the video. Back-to-back grunting noises from getting punched.
my fav youtuber ! i think you are so awesome brother
Great video! Your sense of humor always gets me to laugh, too!
Here's the problem... I subbed for background noise, but your channel is entertaining and engaging. That's false advertising!
I always subscribed to the theory that this Mannimarco is the cast off body after he ascended.
Another great video love your content dude especially the Morrowind ones great to see you play Oblivion.
