KANYEda WESTaro I don't they have an entire empire and are usually pretty prevalent in TES. Redguards usually just get a one off character in a faction.
The Redgaurds are my favorite race, their culture, architect and curved swords are similar to my own. They were able to repel the Aldmeri dominion and took over hammerfell only after few months of fighting by defeating Orcs, Nedes and other races. i hope TES VI is set i hammerfell so i can explore the Redgaurd Culture more and also it would be cool to see some sword-singing.
Ali Chaudhry Because Morrocan culture is very close to Redguard culture : -Brown or dark skin . -Curved swords and scimitars. -Very arabian clothes and light armors for the heat and sandstorms. -Giant desert ( Sahara / Alik'r ) -Ect..
Extra facts: -Sword-Singing is the ability to project one's soul and mold it into a weapon, in a simial manner to shouting with the Thu'um. This weapon can cut through anything, even the atomos, esentially causing nukes. -There is a third Redguard faction known as the Lhotunics, who emerged after the Warp in the West. They represent somewhat a middle ground between the beliefs of the Crowns and the Forebeards. -They have powder and cannons, as seen in TES Adventures: Redguard.
Well there is that theory saying Redguards came from a previous Kalpa thanks to their gods, so they've theoretically been around way before any other race in Tamriel simply because they survived a previous world's destruction.
www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:The_Hunger_of_Sep Its all just theory from the /teslore subreddit, there's nothing backing this up 100%, its just that MK's writings hint this.
its pretty obvious to everyone who plays elder scrolls games that redguards represent a sort of mix of African skin tones and Arab weaponry/clothing. Nords = Vikings. Imperial = Central Europeans. Then you have the elves and beast races thrown in like every other fantasy setting.
Eddie Dallas what imperial is not Central European they are a Roman seems they look similar like the Rome empire except their name are more likely Latin and Italian name like tulius Cicero Marcurio
It's interesting how Leki is considered a god to the Crowns but considering she was a Sword-Singer, Leki was most likely apart of the Ra-Gada wave so she'd be a Forebear if anything.
i love how the redguards remind me of moors/medieval malians. I ike to imagine Yokudans as nile valley peoples (nubians, egyptians, ect) due to mummies and their religious customs being similar to nile valley culture. also the yokudans arent even from the current kalpa-they are from a different timeline.
Funny thing about it I can see their past being more Japanese. More as being a warrior society, coming from an archipelago that few outside races traveled to, reading about their agricultural set up, etc. Then when they moved to Tamriel became more Egyptian.
Tavierloyal i always thought of the summerset isles as japan and the tsaesci as the japanese as well as the high elves. Yokuda reminds me too much of ancient African empires like egypt and nubia whilst redguard society in hammerfell is reminiscent of more medieval African nations like Mali, Songhai and the Moors.
It's never been explained how exactly they came into existence, but there is a theory that they came from another kalpa, as in, another cycle of the cyclical TES universe.
They probably are related in some way, assuming te kalpa thing is wrong, but if they were seperated from atmorans very early on that would explain their different culture but there aren't any biologists in tes so i guess we'll never know

I really want to see Elder Scrolls Six: Hammerfell. I know that everyone wants Valenwood, but I think it both makes the most sense, and is the most doable.
Darthraax Gamez I'm torn between the two regions. I'd love to see it take a kind of Mass Effect approach where you can either side with the Dominion or an opposing side in a Greater War.
Now im doing a new Build Alik'r Archer a Original build by me like if you enjoy if anyone wants to use this build that's fine Backstory: Born on sands of the Mighty Alik'r Desert the Alik'r Archer was Known as a Strange Child among his peer's. As a boy / Girl ( you choose) because his mother was a Blacksmith who Teached him Archery and Smithing where as most Redguard children were taught Swords man ship and Smithing at a young age for most his life he worked as a ___ Secretly Practicing Archery and Alchemy which he had taken a interest in as working for a ______ . but one day his farther was assassinated by a member of the Alderi dominion his mother was captured and tortured, dragged to Valenwood for questioning and he was left orphaned. Through his child hood his hatred for elves grew to a vendetta, in his teen years he bullied teenage wood elves and high elves who lived and travelled through his hold not hating Dark elves because he knew of there suffering for the red mountain disaster. In fact he liked the dark elves and respected them for there honor and Survival skills. One day a kajiht Caravan came to his Hold looking to trade he quickly took this as a opportunity to sign as a caravan guard and explore more of his homeland.As the years passed by he visited most of the Alik'r Desert and the borders of Hammerfell until one faithful day his Caravan was attacked by a group of bandits who were formally his childhood friends. The Khaijhts begged for mercy but none was given. they robbed the Alki'r Archer and mocked him for travelling with " Skooma Faced Cats" and sent him off in the the desert with nothing but the clothes on his back he returned to his home the Western hold and returned to working as a __________ as he became a adult he learnt of his parents involvement with the military and were actually members of the Hammerfell Goverment , the Dominion had killed them to make sure they would get Hammerfell if they were to win a war with the empire. Then the great war broke out and he recruited as a soldier for the empire , with the empire losing the war and giving Hammerfell to the dominion he hated the empire for there betrayal . He left the army and joined the Hammerfell resistance. the Domminion was pushed out of hammerfell yet there was no future there for him and he set out for northern Tamreiel . When crossing the border to Skyrim he was ambushed by Imperial scum and taken to helgan. Use the immersive armor mod or the vanilla game for his armor. He wears Barbarian armor or if your not using mods he ears horned scaled armor with the Alik'r hood and Iron Boots He uses Zephyr for his bow or the black bow of fate for swords he uses blood Scythe and Soulrender he will join the stormcloaks in the civil war to rid Skyrim and hopefully all of Tamreial of the Dominion he will major in smithing and one handed and archery he will do the dark brotherhood questline and the companion's he will side with the dawnguard and do all dlc's he will have a family and do all daedric quests but he is loyal to talos he will not kill paarthurnax and will not side with the forsworn in there quest thats all for the Alik'r Archer hope you enjoy
yo bro don't forget that redguards are the most strongest race in physical capabilities and they were the only ones to hold sort of match the skills of the akavir during the akaviri invasion when all the other races got slaughtered
Amos Townsend redguard at full power vs nords at full power. Redguards will always win, due to sword singers abilities to basically create nuclear blasts from slicing atoms.
Tremain Dzuimo no they’re not. Nords are bigger and stronger, they state Redguards are quicker and faster, not stronger. It’s similar to real life, generally Europeans are the strongest people in terms of body mass, muscle bulk, height, but black people are generally quicker and faster. Again, *generally*
Redguard's culture, history, and traditions are all inspired by the real life cultures, history, and traditions of Northwest Africans, Turks, Arabs, and Persians. Their home continent, Yokuda, is obviously Africa, being described as being barren, but full of agriculture and hills. Redguards mostly resemble sub-Saharan Africans, but there are also many that have a more "Semitic" appearance. Given that the Redguards are also highly inspired by the Moors, their split into multiple factions/sects may be reminiscent to the splits in ancient Moorish society, or the distinct Crowns and Forebears may be a reference to Sunnis and Shiites. Redguard's warrior culture is inspired by the warrior culture of ancient Arabia. Their names tend to be Persian. Their garbs and attire seem to be a blend of Arabic and Turkish armor and wear.
Captanka Ciyaalka Xaafada Well they do draw inspiration from all over Africa and West Asia. Again most Redguards are physically "black". We don't know much about Redguard life in Yokuda, but we can pretty much assume that is was very traditionally African based and that the Yokudan culture gradually shifted and became what it is now over the course of many years of staying in Hammerfell. But you could say that life in Hammerfell now isn't all too different from life in historic Sudanese or East African kingdoms.
Admire Kashiri Yes, I agree somewhat. I don't mean to reiterate but they are based on a plethora of cultures and many of those cultures are African so you are correct. A lot of detail goes into lore and world building as a whole. Western creative directors love to take as much inspiration from the real world as possible when it comes to creating concepts or projects. Redguard sailor heritage for example is no doubt a direct nod to the Mandinka and specific Senegambian ethnic groups.
The redguards and nords are tamriels greatest warriors both with an intense warrior culture, and if they were to unite and fight the thalmor their chances of winning is very high
You didn't mention how they even came to Nirn in the first place. Their gods taught them a little something called the "Walkabout" that basically showed them how to escape the destruction of their own world that was going through its own cycle of apocalypses akin to what we see in Skyrim with Alduin.
Huh. And I was just talking about how I'd love to see a Redguard facts video, and here it is. This is pretty damn cool. I might have to make one in Skyrim..Or Oblivion...Or Morrowind. Not sure.
Oh. Ohhhhhh. I'm not sure how I feel about that. It's funny but it's more than a bit racist. I think. I don't know. You made a man laugh today, I'm liking your comment.
Wait you're saying they are above magic(at least so they think) but the Alik'r warriors that are in search of that Redguard woman in Whiterun use a paralyze spell to capture her and bring her back in the name of the emperor?
I noticed it too, but I just thought it showed how serious they were about it. I mean, they were catching an international criminal known to slip away. All's fair in love and war.
Crytica desperate times call for desperate measures. They needed her back alive and paralyze was likely the only practical way of no one being harmed and getting the job done
There'll always be slip ups. But of course that's more of a general consensus. There will always be those few exceptions. Sometimes they'll learn techniques disapproved of to help combat it. Like in Japan, the shinobi were disapproved of by the samurai but they still used them all the time.
@Tiago Fermino Cachoeira "Elder scrolls "Masterrace" ".. They lost their Island country to the sword singers. They lost to Alduin which ate their world. Yeah, keep telling yourself that they are, when in reality they aren't!!
Delacorvix watch every alt right youtuber or gamer or anything say they're blackwashing games while every news article says that they don't have enough black leads. maybe if it takes place on akavir it would be completely different.
History geek here. IRL, curved swords/sabres from horseback exist not because they're less likely to catch (as you passively mentioned), but instead are curved because it's more effective for cutting. Imagine 5lbs of source being applied over a large area versus over a smaller area. Curved swords have smaller contact area, making them better for chopping. Since you don't need the point or any real crossguard when charging with cavalry (since there's no parrying being done), a curved sword ends up having no drawback on horseback. Plus, the smaller cutting area takes better advantage of the momentum of the steed than a straight sword would.
just thought of a character build: The Creepy Clown; Race: Kajit or Argonian (Kajit is better though due to claws for extra unarmed) Gear: Ciceraus armour set and ilusion spells such as fear to scare your victims before you kill them with your brutal claws or preferably the Wabajack for its funny effects Guilds: Vampire to become a demon of the night, Dark brotherhood for armour set, Thives guild for fun Skills: Mainly ilusion and sneak skills with one handed and armour for obious reasons, The rest is up to you. Backstory: As a child you were on a family trip when both your parents were murderd by a clown who kidnaped you and tortured you until you became a sick and twisted phyco murderus clown such as your capture, Through the years you have had your mind warped vigorusly and you have Lured many young children into the woods where you do as you please with them; Murder, Disnember, And other phycotic things. You had been stalking a family of 6 children when you are caught near helgen - Game starts
Ulfric Stormcloak wants to build a wall to prevent travel between Hammerfell and Skyrim, then he'll try to make the Redguards pay for it. He pissed off the Redguards by challenging the newly crowned Redguard king who was just 15 years old. He used the Thu'um to shout the kid down to the ground and murdered him, tried to convince all the Redguards in Hammerfell that it was totally legit. Redguards decided to play along and invoked the HoonDing on the Stormcloaks, then split atom... NUKED Ulfric's face. Say that is totally legit, finally they pull a Pakratosword on Skyrim and sink the entire province into the ocean.
Just created a female regard who dabbles in necromancy... fucking rebel! Also named my character after an ancient Egyptian so I find it cool that they mummify their dead!
Curved swords are made for hacking bones, allowing to easly cut the enemy's head off with on point strike, if you read a little about 1600ac japan, youll find lots of references by redguars on samurai, All that "sword-soul extension" and the swordsingers thing are very related to samurai culture.
Hey FudgeMuppet I Love You Skyrim Video's! I play skyrim aswell so I was wondering if you could make a video of 5 facts about the snow elves, if you do then your awesome! bye
I like the glass greatsword and the dragonbone sword looks nice but my least favourite weapon type is probably battleaxes, they just look too big especially the steel battleaxe
The reason my redguard supports the nords (despite the probable racism) is because he sees them as freedom fighters, trying to rid themselves of the empire like hammerfell did before.
Nords and Redguards have the most in common they are both are a proud warrior race they both have a distrust of magic they both hate and are responsible for the death or a race of elves they both enjoy adventuring they both respect their ancestors frankly the only real differences are purely cosmetic, and a Redguard joining the Stormcloaks in the only none-Nord option that makes 100% complete since were as unless the Redguard character is ether a none-native or has no ties to their culture, a Redguard joining the Legion makes 0% sense, hell, a Stormcloak Skyrim and Hammerfell alliance would really be a hindrance to the Aldmeri Dominion.
I recently got back into Skyrim, rest vid but you we're a little incorrect about Redguards not using magic. The Yokuda wizards, they used all kinds of magic except Necromancy
Redguards make suprisingly good assasins especially if you get into a sticky situation u can use adrenaline rush to gwt away and snipe them down with the bow
Nothing about the Alik'r tribes who are probably Hammerfall's deadliest warriors or the Redguards stuck it to the Thalmor or the Redguards now consider the Empire an enemy for its treachery giving the provience to the Thalmor without even asking the Redguards. No suprise they fought back and won against elven occupation.
One the cool character I made I is a warrior mage redguard half high elf(I used mod to give him elf ears) With both magic and sword he is shunned by both races and now is a wonderer traveling to Skyrim but was captured and imprisoned by the thalmor
Red Guards have an ancient connection, secretly hidden, and lost to them. Someday it will be revealed exactly who they are and are not! Their past aggressions are judged so harshly, because they were thrust so violently into survival mode, that even they were astonished as to their advancement from the recovery. Modern times find RG evolving beyond mere material boundaries.-drtgs
Redguards don't like magic yet they have some of the most powerful wizards in tamriel. Only conjuration is not excepted . You also missed the best fact the fact they have cannons and gunpowder
You guys should either do a build that's best suited for legendary difficulty, or make your old oblivion character, Robin. His play style and backstory the arcane thief
The mummification and forbbidance of necromancy are also in the Nords' religion, as sometimes in crypts the draugr are wrapped in cloth. They are also buried with their precious valuables, why do you think you can sometimes get expensive jewlery from the draugr.
I own a ceremonial cutlass. It's curved, but the dull old blade can barely cut butter. All kidding aside, it is an interesting blade for sure, and was even used to cut my parents' wedding cake.
Meanwhile, in Hamerfell
"Hear bout' those guys in Skyrim, they have straight swords...straight swords"
Chaylen Tejeda Ever hear about those warriors from Morrowind? They have throwing knives. Throwing. Knives.
Hear about those cats from Elsweyr? They have tails... TAILS.
Here's one:
Ever hear about those warriors from Morrowind? They throw stars. Throw. Stars.
Chaylen Tejeda underrated joke.
Chaylen Tejeda i think u mean the rest of tamriel!
"No red guard will stoop so low as to practice the arcane arts."
*Casually deletes lvl 43 Redguard Arch-Mage*
I got a Redguard Spellsword myself, so he fights with swords and magic. Mostly Destruction, Alteration, and Restoration magic.
2:08
Well, if they're not in Hammerfell, they don't have to abide by Hammerfell's customs
He's referring to the old the Akutan culture that has changed to accept Magic
It was a joke of "No true Scotsman" fallacy that seem to plague human mentality.
"You hear bout those guys from Hammerfell? They have curved swords. CURVED. SWORDS."
I thought he said CURVED D***S. My mistake. He said SWORDS
Jamison Wilkins Go fidling with any COCKS around here and we're going to have a real BIG party.
These boys work hard and they play harder
Kek Man nice!
Why tf is my comment gone?
It was hard work.
I feel like red guards are under rated tbh.
Papa Beej same here.That's why I always play as a Redgaurd.
Jorge Yanez Whenever I do any form of one handed warrior I love to go red guard or if I do a jack of all trades kinda character
Papa Beej I do the exact same thing as well.
KANYEda WESTaro I don't they have an entire empire and are usually pretty prevalent in TES. Redguards usually just get a one off character in a faction.
f
how did the redgaurd break his toe?
he was building his house and his hammer fell
Lol underRated comment
I loled
OH MY GOD!
No? Okay
Can I please use this comment
The Redgaurds are my favorite race, their culture, architect and curved swords are similar to my own. They were able to repel the Aldmeri dominion and took over hammerfell only after few months of fighting by defeating Orcs, Nedes and other races. i hope TES VI is set i hammerfell so i can explore the Redgaurd Culture more and also it would be cool to see some sword-singing.
Ali Chaudhry Are you morrocan ?
No, Pakistani.
Ali Chaudhry hey I've been to Pakistan great country.
Ali Chaudhry Because Morrocan culture is very close to Redguard culture :
-Brown or dark skin .
-Curved swords and scimitars.
-Very arabian clothes and light armors for the heat and sandstorms.
-Giant desert ( Sahara / Alik'r )
-Ect..
James Legrand I'd hope to travel there too , I'd personnaly hope to travel to Asia and go to a bunch of countries .
Extra facts:
-Sword-Singing is the ability to project one's soul and mold it into a weapon, in a simial manner to shouting with the Thu'um. This weapon can cut through anything, even the atomos, esentially causing nukes.
-There is a third Redguard faction known as the Lhotunics, who emerged after the Warp in the West. They represent somewhat a middle ground between the beliefs of the Crowns and the Forebeards.
-They have powder and cannons, as seen in TES Adventures: Redguard.
Why does it seem like the Redguards are way beyond Tamerial races? What's next guns?
Well there is that theory saying Redguards came from a previous Kalpa thanks to their gods, so they've theoretically been around way before any other race in Tamriel simply because they survived a previous world's destruction.
What mate? Where can I read this?
www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:The_Hunger_of_Sep
Its all just theory from the /teslore subreddit, there's nothing backing this up 100%, its just that MK's writings hint this.
Redguards have so much hidden lore it's crazy.
I would love more lore about the Sword-singers, and about the Yokudan stone magic in the next game.
yes!!!
Too bad it's gonna come out when your great great grand kids grandkids have great great grandkids
"Sword Singing" really needs to make an appearance. It sound like Elemental Fury on crack.
I want a game in Hammerfell...
Roy Foerster Next game, I hope we get to play as the Swordsinger
congrats es6 is lol
Are you sure about that? ua-cam.com/video/-wmRlHiiNi0/v-deo.html
That would be lame cause it's a fucking desert
@@anthonyalire186 we always heard how Skyrim was a frozen tundra with harsh winters and hard terrain but here we are.
Who else came here because they decided to play as a Redguard and thought to themselves, "What's their backstory"?
Kifflom Dolphin absolutely man you're right I have to be honest that's exactly why I'm here haha nice
So am I
Guilty, haha
Facts
Me im trying a redguard now
Nords and Redguards need to make an alliance against thalmor
They already had an alliance, it was called the empire
gothicfan52 fuck the empire
I dunno about you but the red guard are black and I think nords was white probably the nord are racist as well to thalmor and elves
its pretty obvious to everyone who plays elder scrolls games that redguards represent a sort of mix of African skin tones and Arab weaponry/clothing. Nords = Vikings. Imperial = Central Europeans. Then you have the elves and beast races thrown in like every other fantasy setting.
Eddie Dallas what imperial is not Central European they are a Roman seems they look similar like the Rome empire except their name are more likely Latin and Italian name like tulius Cicero Marcurio
Nice use of the Elder Scrolls Adventures: Redguard theme.
holy shit i thought i was the only one that noticed.
I tought it was zelda at first tbh
I thought this was the Redguard theme ua-cam.com/video/-wmRlHiiNi0/v-deo.html
Yes a great old school game
I was hoping he'd talk about the sword singers...oh well.
Ciri is Bae we don't know too much about them besides they could make swords out of thin air and some of the battles they fought
these videos are so well made, I take my hat off to the guys behind the channel.
It's interesting how Leki is considered a god to the Crowns but considering she was a Sword-Singer, Leki was most likely apart of the Ra-Gada wave so she'd be a Forebear if anything.
Damn it feels good to be a Redgaurd.ᕙ(▀̿̿Ĺ̯̿̿▀̿ ̿) ᕗ
yeah im acutally redguard irl black man from middle east lol
White boi...
Where's my redguards at ?
i love how the redguards remind me of moors/medieval malians. I ike to imagine Yokudans as nile valley peoples (nubians, egyptians, ect) due to mummies and their religious customs being similar to nile valley culture. also the yokudans arent even from the current kalpa-they are from a different timeline.
Funny thing about it I can see their past being more Japanese. More as being a warrior society, coming from an archipelago that few outside races traveled to, reading about their agricultural set up, etc. Then when they moved to Tamriel became more Egyptian.

kwadwo baidoo Nubians in the nile, you wot m8
Tavierloyal Japanese? r u dumb. they r legit black people with black sheep hair. They r arabic and persian at best. Nubian, Ethopian. around there
Hans Ulrich Rudel... ease up Nazi boy, its just a video game. You can hate black people in real life, leave the fantasy alone
Well they have to be biologically related in *some* way, they're still Human.
It's never been explained how exactly they came into existence, but there is a theory that they came from another kalpa, as in, another cycle of the cyclical TES universe.
They probably are related in some way, assuming te kalpa thing is wrong, but if they were seperated from atmorans very early on that would explain their different culture but there aren't any biologists in tes so i guess we'll never know

Brown indeed it does
my favorite race
It’s favourite
+Linty There are two spellings lmao
I really want to see Elder Scrolls Six: Hammerfell. I know that everyone wants Valenwood, but I think it both makes the most sense, and is the most doable.
Darthraax Gamez I'm torn between the two regions. I'd love to see it take a kind of Mass Effect approach where you can either side with the Dominion or an opposing side in a Greater War.
wow it’s in hammerfell good guess
It'd be different because Skyrim is a snowy setting and then Hammerfell would be really deserty and hot.
Elsweyr or hammerfell for TES 6 or im not buying (with pleasure)
Now im doing a new Build
Alik'r Archer
a Original build by me like if you enjoy
if anyone wants to use this build that's fine
Backstory: Born on sands of the Mighty Alik'r Desert the Alik'r Archer
was Known as a Strange Child among his peer's. As a boy / Girl ( you choose) because his mother was a Blacksmith who Teached him Archery and Smithing where as most Redguard children were taught Swords man ship and Smithing
at a young age
for most his life he worked as a ___ Secretly Practicing Archery and Alchemy which he had taken a interest in as working for a ______ .
but one day his farther was assassinated by a member of the Alderi dominion his mother was captured and tortured, dragged to Valenwood for questioning and he was left orphaned. Through his child hood his hatred for elves grew to a vendetta, in his teen years he bullied teenage wood elves and high elves who lived and travelled through his hold
not hating Dark elves because he knew of there suffering for the red mountain disaster. In fact he liked the dark elves and respected them for there honor and Survival skills.
One day a kajiht Caravan came to his Hold looking to trade he quickly took this as a opportunity
to sign as a caravan guard and explore more of his homeland.As the years passed by he visited
most of the Alik'r Desert and the borders of Hammerfell until one faithful day his Caravan was attacked by a group of bandits who were formally his childhood friends. The Khaijhts begged for mercy but none was given. they robbed the
Alki'r Archer and mocked him for travelling with " Skooma Faced Cats" and sent him off in the the desert with nothing but
the clothes on his back
he returned to his home the Western hold and returned to working as a __________ as he became a adult he learnt of his parents involvement with the military and were actually members of the Hammerfell Goverment , the Dominion had killed them to make sure they would get Hammerfell if they were to win a war with the empire.
Then the great war broke out and he recruited as a soldier for the empire , with the empire losing the war and giving Hammerfell to the dominion he hated the empire for there betrayal . He left the army and joined the Hammerfell resistance.
the Domminion was pushed out of hammerfell yet there was no future there for him and he set out for northern Tamreiel .
When crossing the border to Skyrim he was ambushed by Imperial scum and taken to helgan.
Use the immersive armor mod or the vanilla game for his armor.
He wears Barbarian armor or if your not using mods he ears horned scaled armor with the Alik'r hood
and Iron Boots
He uses Zephyr for his bow or the black bow of fate
for swords he uses blood Scythe and Soulrender
he will join the stormcloaks in the civil war to rid Skyrim and hopefully all of Tamreial of the Dominion
he will major in smithing and one handed and archery
he will do the dark brotherhood questline and the companion's
he will side with the dawnguard and do all dlc's
he will have a family
and do all daedric quests but he is loyal to talos
he will not kill paarthurnax
and will not side with the forsworn in there quest
thats all for the Alik'r Archer hope you enjoy
Alpha catz .... meow never knew people were actually this weird
ikr
Do you get to the Cloud District very often? Oh, what am I saying, of course you don't.
Nazeem I assasinated you wtf?
shouldnt u be up the jarl's backside
you are no Sword-singers
Nazeem Im redguard too but yo are jerk
And that why i punch you in the face every time i see you
yo bro don't forget that redguards are the most strongest race in physical capabilities and they were the only ones to hold sort of match the skills of the akavir during the akaviri invasion when all the other races got slaughtered
Tremain Dzuimo NORDS are THE BIGEST AND STRONGEST
Amos Townsend redguard at full power vs nords at full power. Redguards will always win, due to sword singers abilities to basically create nuclear blasts from slicing atoms.
They even putting up a fight with the thalmor in Skyrim
Tremain Dzuimo no they’re not. Nords are bigger and stronger, they state Redguards are quicker and faster, not stronger. It’s similar to real life, generally Europeans are the strongest people in terms of body mass, muscle bulk, height, but black people are generally quicker and faster. Again, *generally*
Андрей Илья Робертович Блейков what race has nothing to do with that it’s all genetics what are you talking about?
Redguard's culture, history, and traditions are all inspired by the real life cultures, history, and traditions of Northwest Africans, Turks, Arabs, and Persians.
Their home continent, Yokuda, is obviously Africa, being described as being barren, but full of agriculture and hills. Redguards mostly resemble sub-Saharan Africans, but there are also many that have a more "Semitic" appearance.
Given that the Redguards are also highly inspired by the Moors, their split into multiple factions/sects may be reminiscent to the splits in ancient Moorish society, or the distinct Crowns and Forebears may be a reference to Sunnis and Shiites.
Redguard's warrior culture is inspired by the warrior culture of ancient Arabia. Their names tend to be Persian. Their garbs and attire seem to be a blend of Arabic and Turkish armor and wear.
Lls what the hell is a “pure black”
Captanka Ciyaalka Xaafada Well they do draw inspiration from all over Africa and West Asia.
Again most Redguards are physically "black". We don't know much about Redguard life in Yokuda, but we can pretty much assume that is was very traditionally African based and that the Yokudan culture gradually shifted and became what it is now over the course of many years of staying in Hammerfell.
But you could say that life in Hammerfell now isn't all too different from life in historic Sudanese or East African kingdoms.
Captanka Ciyaalka Xaafada wtf is a pure black
Admire Kashiri Yes, I agree somewhat. I don't mean to reiterate but they are based on a plethora of cultures and many of those cultures are African so you are correct.
A lot of detail goes into lore and world building as a whole. Western creative directors love to take as much inspiration from the real world as possible when it comes to creating concepts or projects. Redguard sailor heritage for example is no doubt a direct nod to the Mandinka and specific Senegambian ethnic groups.
MF Whom?
The redguards and nords are tamriels greatest warriors both with an intense warrior culture, and if they were to unite and fight the thalmor their chances of winning is very high
Red Guards are my favorite "Human" race in the game
1 on 1, no one can beat the Redguards.
...Nords in a fight
Orcs bro...
Nords? Orcs?
Orcs are heavier and stronger, but redguards are generally better than nords with sword skills.
Only orcs
Watching this as I play as a redgaurd telvanni vampire
Son Goku hmmm
That ain't nice
Choose whatchu want😐
*watching this while realizing that my oblivion redguard is nothing in common with his kin*
I made a RedGuard Dual wielding warrior. He is awesome to play. Want the build?
Robbie Robinson
i do
Robbie Robinson yes please
My character only uses the Alik'r Hood, Hammerfell clothes and Boots
*One handed:* Arms Man, Fighting Stance, Critical charge, Savage Strike, Blades man, Dual furry and Savery
SANITYISFORTHEWEAK Ok. Keep scrolling down
Knowing how Redguards generally feel about magic makes me want to play a Redguard wizard now.
You didn't mention how they even came to Nirn in the first place. Their gods taught them a little something called the "Walkabout" that basically showed them how to escape the destruction of their own world that was going through its own cycle of apocalypses akin to what we see in Skyrim with Alduin.
Curved swords are common in Central Asia, Middle East and North Africa
Red Guards are my favorite in Skyrim and Elder Scrolls!
I own a pair of scimitars and an Egyptian Khopesh stylized in Game of Thrones as a Dothraki Arahk also a brass finish sabre from Badger Blades.
Huh. And I was just talking about how I'd love to see a Redguard facts video, and here it is. This is pretty damn cool. I might have to make one in Skyrim..Or Oblivion...Or Morrowind. Not sure.
I want Redguards and Nords to get along...... I mean in real life like today today. REDGUARDS AND NORDS TO GET ALONG
NEVER
For some reason one of those damn redguards in a weird hat keeps trying to make me care about failing communities in another game.
George Zhang hey another settlement is in need of your help. I'll mark it on your map this time
+ed4pints No. I'll mark it on YOUR map this time.
George Zhang I get it, that is funny
STING380 edited cheers
Oh. Ohhhhhh. I'm not sure how I feel about that. It's funny but it's more than a bit racist. I think. I don't know. You made a man laugh today, I'm liking your comment.
" You heard about those warriors from Hammerfell? I hear they've got Big, Curved Swords." ... That's for damn sure.
Wait you're saying they are above magic(at least so they think) but the Alik'r warriors that are in search of that Redguard woman in Whiterun use a paralyze spell to capture her and bring her back in the name of the emperor?
I noticed it too, but I just thought it showed how serious they were about it. I mean, they were catching an international criminal known to slip away. All's fair in love and war.
If i remember correctly, they don't tolerate necromancy/conjuration but other forms of magic is considered a coward's tool.
Crytica desperate times call for desperate measures. They needed her back alive and paralyze was likely the only practical way of no one being harmed and getting the job done
There'll always be slip ups. But of course that's more of a general consensus. There will always be those few exceptions. Sometimes they'll learn techniques disapproved of to help combat it. Like in Japan, the shinobi were disapproved of by the samurai but they still used them all the time.
Tavierloyal ninjas are cowards lol
currently playing a redguard so this is a fitting video to watch
finally the Master race, the race I played all elder scrolls
James Rolt Carter Idk bro, high elf women are a boner rager.
+Kerry Moore I fucking love these badasses. Especially their lore. If there's a (Xbox) mod for their Shehai, I'd love a link to it
Tiago Fermino Cachoeira nice
@Tiago Fermino Cachoeira "Elder scrolls "Masterrace" "..
They lost their Island country to the sword singers.
They lost to Alduin which ate their world.
Yeah, keep telling yourself that they are, when in reality they aren't!!
Lovin' the lore, FudgeMuppet. Keep it up!
I have a curved sword.
You're lying Morgan
I'll have you know there's no PUSSSSSIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEE
I love the redguards, been a redguards since I first ayed skyrim
Redguard Warrior marries a Breton Illusionist/Conjurator.
"What is Love? Baby don't hurt me… don't hurt me, no more…"
What?
You guys are on fire! Love your videos :)
The Redguards are basically The Moors in real life lol. I always loved the Rearguards, they're thee if not one of the best.
Moors are people of Maghreb
@Zonor Marseille wrong their white now but truly they are black and only became bred out by foreigners over time
I'm currently making a red guard build based on Nimrod
i don't get why the redguards distrust magic
fire bolts are curved!
They fine with any magic besides Illusion and summoning
Turkish Im redguard necromancer kill me then
The only Tamriel natives are the Argonians right? The mer and men both migrated to the continent
an elder scrolls 6 in hammerfell would make skyrim look like a half-assed game
Luke Van Wyk sad but prob true
Apparently it will be, but I'm sure you know it by now.
Delacorvix watch every alt right youtuber or gamer or anything say they're blackwashing games while every news article says that they don't have enough black leads. maybe if it takes place on akavir it would be completely different.
i’m from the future and it is in hammerfell
@@RinoGato ua-cam.com/video/mAYObr7bkjs/v-deo.html look this about redguards
my favourite race in tamriel and my first race to play as ever in elder scrolls. i cant wait for a game set in hammerfell (not counting redguard)
Underrated race.
History geek here. IRL, curved swords/sabres from horseback exist not because they're less likely to catch (as you passively mentioned), but instead are curved because it's more effective for cutting. Imagine 5lbs of source being applied over a large area versus over a smaller area. Curved swords have smaller contact area, making them better for chopping. Since you don't need the point or any real crossguard when charging with cavalry (since there's no parrying being done), a curved sword ends up having no drawback on horseback. Plus, the smaller cutting area takes better advantage of the momentum of the steed than a straight sword would.
I picked these dudes first. I am not gonna lie, cuz I am black therefore I pick black. Now I love them.
Crylec same here bro i thought gotta go wit my irl race now i love there lore
Crylec
You picked (arabs)
@@Palestine4Ever169 Well I am part Yemeni so...
just thought of a character build: The Creepy Clown;
Race: Kajit or Argonian (Kajit is better though due to claws for extra unarmed)
Gear: Ciceraus armour set and ilusion spells such as fear to scare your victims before you kill them with your brutal claws or preferably the Wabajack for its funny effects
Guilds: Vampire to become a demon of the night, Dark brotherhood for armour set, Thives guild for fun
Skills: Mainly ilusion and sneak skills with one handed and armour for obious reasons, The rest is up to you.
Backstory: As a child you were on a family trip when both your parents were murderd by a clown who kidnaped you and tortured you until you became a sick and twisted phyco murderus clown such as your capture, Through the years you have had your mind warped vigorusly and you have Lured many young children into the woods where you do as you please with them; Murder, Disnember, And other phycotic things. You had been stalking a family of 6 children when you are caught near helgen - Game starts
Is that the Elder Scrolls: Redgaurd music?
Yeah
Great video! I actually might roll a couple of them now after watching this video.

Ulfric stormcloak imposes travel ban on hammerfell
Ulfric Stormcloak wants to build a wall to prevent travel between Hammerfell and Skyrim, then he'll try to make the Redguards pay for it.
He pissed off the Redguards by challenging the newly crowned Redguard king who was just 15 years old. He used the Thu'um to shout the kid down to the ground and murdered him, tried to convince all the Redguards in Hammerfell that it was totally legit.
Redguards decided to play along and invoked the HoonDing on the Stormcloaks, then split atom... NUKED Ulfric's face. Say that is totally legit, finally they pull a Pakratosword on Skyrim and sink the entire province into the ocean.
Are you trying to compare Ulfric and Trump? If so, they are only similar in the fact that they want to protect their people.
When I realize that my oblivion redguard has nothing in common with his kin
#RedguardLivesMatter
please just no, no, no.
#bretonlivesmattermore
Kek Man Not really, no.
Yes really, yes
#nordlivesmatter #ulfric2017
I want to visit Hammerfell in the next game !
Could you create a She-Wolf character?
Just created a female regard who dabbles in necromancy... fucking rebel! Also named my character after an ancient Egyptian so I find it cool that they mummify their dead!
775 views no dislikes. That's good.
Iced Gamer changed fhat
=(
I saw a Turkish curved exacutioners sword in a museum. It was epic!
breton>all others
liam green Nah.
I concur
Well stastisikly yes but lore wise no
Curved swords are made for hacking bones, allowing to easly cut the enemy's head off with on point strike, if you read a little about 1600ac japan, youll find lots of references by redguars on samurai, All that "sword-soul extension" and the swordsingers thing are very related to samurai culture.
You better do an oblivion build, or i am gonna subscribe and unsubscribe the WHOLE. MOTHET.FUCKING.DAY!!!no joke. I hope you know what that means
fedos krutos Fuck off, kid.
fedos krutos few even play oblivion anymore. morrowind may even have more players then oblivion
atleast one build would be great
Hey FudgeMuppet I Love You Skyrim Video's! I play skyrim aswell so I was wondering if you could make a video of 5 facts about the snow elves, if you do then your awesome! bye
The scimitars in skyrim look fucking ridiculous.
Well to be fair, most weapons in Skyrim look fucking ridiculous.
Most of the one handed swords are far too wide, the glass sword is just a fucking paddle
I like the glass greatsword and the dragonbone sword looks nice but my least favourite weapon type is probably battleaxes, they just look too big especially the steel battleaxe
kek man, use leanwolfs better shaped weapons mod
Great video, thanks guys!!!
"Every penis should have a mouth to live in." - Donald Trump
Funnily enough I just had a redguard invasion- related loading screen when I was playing Skyrim
2nd favorite race. Really nice vid
My first character is an regard wizard 😂
The reason my redguard supports the nords (despite the probable racism) is because he sees them as freedom fighters, trying to rid themselves of the empire like hammerfell did before.
Nords and Redguards have the most in common
they are both are a proud warrior race
they both have a distrust of magic
they both hate and are responsible for the death or a race of elves
they both enjoy adventuring
they both respect their ancestors
frankly the only real differences are purely cosmetic, and a Redguard joining the Stormcloaks in the only none-Nord option that makes 100% complete since were as unless the Redguard character is ether a none-native or has no ties to their culture, a Redguard joining the Legion makes 0% sense, hell, a Stormcloak Skyrim and Hammerfell alliance would really be a hindrance to the Aldmeri Dominion.
I recently got back into Skyrim, rest vid but you we're a little incorrect about Redguards not using magic. The Yokuda wizards, they used all kinds of magic except Necromancy
I just started a new play through as a Redguard woman, she’s a thief, heavy on stealth and pickpocketing, one handed and conjugation!
Redguards make suprisingly good assasins especially if you get into a sticky situation u can use adrenaline rush to gwt away and snipe them down with the bow
no mention of the ash'abah tribe. They are actually very interesting.
is this a set or some armor at 0:45 ?
Nothing about the Alik'r tribes who are probably Hammerfall's deadliest warriors or the Redguards stuck it to the Thalmor or the Redguards now consider the Empire an enemy for its treachery giving the provience to the Thalmor without even asking the Redguards. No suprise they fought back and won against elven occupation.
One the cool character I made I is a warrior mage redguard half high elf(I used mod to give him elf ears) With both magic and sword he is shunned by both races and now is a wonderer traveling to Skyrim but was captured and imprisoned by the thalmor
Red Guards have an ancient connection, secretly hidden, and lost to them. Someday it will be revealed exactly who they are and are not! Their past aggressions are judged so harshly, because they were thrust so violently into survival mode, that even they were astonished as to their advancement from the recovery. Modern times find RG evolving beyond mere material boundaries.-drtgs
I humbly request build for mage ,that INCLUDES usage or conjuiration magic (attronach stone prevents this school from beeing activcly used)
I agree
Redguards are by far my favorite race.
Redguards don't like magic yet they have some of the most powerful wizards in tamriel. Only conjuration is not excepted . You also missed the best fact the fact they have cannons and gunpowder
I really hope they introduce guns in the next expansion, I want to roleplay a true 17th century style pirate.
You guys should either do a build that's best suited for legendary difficulty, or make your old oblivion character, Robin. His play style and backstory the arcane thief
yes.! thank you for redguard facts
Seen the walls in Matt Easton's videos? So many curved swords. Curved. Swords.
Bethesda you ain't slick, "Yacoons" 😂
See those Warriors from Hammerfell? Yeah? Alright, just wanted to know. Thanks for telling me
The mummification and forbbidance of necromancy are also in the Nords' religion, as sometimes in crypts the draugr are wrapped in cloth. They are also buried with their precious valuables, why do you think you can sometimes get expensive jewlery from the draugr.
Big Redguard Curved sword
I own a ceremonial cutlass. It's curved, but the dull old blade can barely cut butter. All kidding aside, it is an interesting blade for sure, and was even used to cut my parents' wedding cake.
Did you mention they are the first and only race that had cannons and oneuse bombs,thanks to their discovery of gunpowder
Every time I saw those Redgaurds, I had to take their swords. So I did.
