fantasy & cannibalism
the decision to make wood elves in the elderscrolls (for the most part) cannibals who forgo consuming vegetation is an interesting one, but it begs the question:
how are the bosmer (wood elves) surviving?
the worst fact about cannibalism that everyone except biologists forget is that you will starve to death if you consume nothing but other people.
yes. STARVE.
why? because there's not enough nutritional value in human flesh. We're at the top of the food chain and the nutrients we need to fuel the engine of our bodies and keep it operating have to 1) pass through other creature's metabolisms and what they took from it in the chain of eating, and 2) if what little was left over has been already processed and used by the human body, there's not going to be much to gain from it. Forgive my extremely short and simplistic way of saying the higher up on the food chain a creature is, the less bang for your buck you'll get out of it in general: aka why mass meat production doesn't focus on farming apex predators, but instead creatures that consume low on the food chain, like grazing herbivores.
That's real life. You cannot live off of the flesh of other people, you will die of hunger(if the prions and diseases and other stuff don't get you first). Now, apply that to fantasy.
Moving on to elder scrolls
Bosmer are weird... they practice ritual cannibalism and the whole thing seems more spiritual (hence 'ritual') to tie them back to the essence of the plants that shelter them, rather than an essential part of their diet... maybe. It's a blurry mess. The 'green pact', the practice that forbids them from harming plant-matter means their diets are carnivorous. So...
Does this mean bosmer are obligate carnivores, ie: is their biology adapted so that they rely only on meat to give them sustenance (and thus can't derive it from plantlife or non-animals)?
if it doesn't mean their biology is 100% carnivorous and they are instead omnivores like humans, where are they getting their fibre, vitamin c, other stuff needed from plant-eating? Do they import it from outside valenwood where the green pact doesn't apply? That's extremely shaky ground to keep an entire civilization alive...
if the bosmer are obligate carnivores, and the practice of cannibalism came from pragmatism to not waste a resource they depend on to survive (meat), which seems to be what the lore implies, how are bosmer getting nutritional value from eating other people (aka, animals at the top of the food chain)? Not to mention if reliance on this meat is a common thing (again which the lore implies), how do their bodies deal with prion transmission? Do their bodies resist disease- OHMYGOD. THEY DO RESIST DISEASE, it's in morrowind, oblivion, and eso as one of their species stats.
'the green pact' isn't practiced by all bosmer but what does that mean when it comes to diet other than 'haha not all of us eat our enemies'. Are these bosmer also carnivorous?
i mean the boring answer is probably 'tee hee, they're omnivores, just like humans, duh', which opens up all the issues™ with the decision to make them so meat and cannibal oriented.
I don't know. there's so much to do here and everything's so vague and wishy washy.
Mostly I'm just frustrated with creators not knowing the one single most interesting and horrifying fact about cannibalism: it doesn't help anything.

For Jay I always liked Jaystorm for his personality or Jaywhisker for the fact he needs to rely on other forms of perception other than sight.
Also, I wanted to say that while it's wonderful to have your audience in mind when creating I also want to see what YOUR artistic vision is and how YOU approach the story of Warrior Jay.
Keep up the great work, I am a big fan <3

HI ARIAL JACE!!!!!!!!!! i love seeing notifs with your name, youve been one of the first people to ever interact with this blog and im super happy youre still around :D
I LOVE JAYWHISKER its such a cool idea?? if i didnt grab the blaze/frost parallel and run i would 100% go with that. i genuinely love that so much for him
and dont worry! a LOT of my own artistic vision is being applied to this story. its going to get a lot more crazy as time goes on, and the plot will admittedly get a bit cramped together considering the fact that one, im not going to draw every scene of every chapter of all 6 po3 books that would kill me, and two, the timeline IS being changed so a lot of the stuff is shoved early on in the story.
theres a lot of changes to canon thats going to be clear soon enough. my vision is clear, but i want to make sure you guys are happy with it first and foremost.

as soon as she is able to, caeda requests a return to the monastery from rusalka. she is lucky that her request is granted without much fuss. the dream that she’d had played far too many tricks on her— for her comfort she needed to see her beloved marth again.
though even with his warmth, she was not sure she would ever forget the feeling of dying. the blood that had pooled at her stomach had felt so real it made her nauseous just thinking about it.
caeda has a feeling humans aren’t supposed to remember things like that.
she finds his dorm room with ease and knocks on his door. “marth?” she calls out with her normal voice— disguised to hide her grief in public but still normal. “it’s caeda, i returned from my mission!”
               Wracked by the disappearance of not merely one soul deeply loved, but many others, a king’s mind could only be led to hem and haw of the differences these absences make. To stutter and hitch on its thoughts of useful behavior as consciousness towards the academy, and all else, dwindles to a thread. Amid all this worry it would be foolish to expect of him the same perfect labors as he has portrayed before. The pen in his hand petering off the paper in his state of distraction, misguided ink rubbed away with as slanted a mind, calculations conducted off-beat by more handfuls then pinches.  .  .Can he be blamed for his faulty ways at a desk? Deeper concerns surely lie beyond it!
               The days are joined together ceaselessly by his gnawing concern that he is not there to brave their hostile elements with them in Rusalka; his allies and friends in so much measure. Caeda, Kris, and Katarina among them. Every hour serves to remind that those to whom he might bequeath all the measure of his love are also for all the duration of a month without presence to receive it. But as he is soon to know, there is a difference that cuts this day from the rest, like night and day, sea and sky—
Tumblr media
                  Announced with the call of his name then the full and beautiful sight of the former Talys princess herself, Caeda returns to him after that painful hibernation, and for a grateful matter of seconds there is little else that can enter his eye. His arms engulf her at once. “You’ve returned! I hadn’t expected you to be back today, but I am all the gladder for it—oh, you must be positively exhausted! Are you hurt or hungry? Perhaps you’d like to bathe first? Forgive my eagerness without prior thought. I’ve no mind to pile myself onto you at once after such a tiring journey—”
               Every word and function is to halt at his discovery, stopped in their tracks. A thick line of tension stiffening her in his hold where relaxation should have persisted, a studious speed drives his gaze as he draws back to examine her, guided by the knowledge of something amiss. Traveling then lingering on the finer points of expression with invisibility to an unversed eye. The exhaustion buried there, the silent appeal for comfort that only Marth could provide, the signs are enough compel to a different breed of question. The further gaping of a dormitory door as he moves to allow her into his heart and his halls in one backwards step. “...Come in, Caeda. I’d like to hear of your time in Rusalka, and of yourself. As much as you are willing to share, of course. I am sure you have many stories to impart."

You'd be such a good house pet wouldn't you? I'd let you have a nice long leash so I can put you under my desk and make you cockwarm me while I work. You'd be so needy constantly ready for me to use you, such a cute whore. I'd love to just stuff you full of toys and tease you, let you lay your head in my lap inches from my cock but not let you suck it yet. You'd beg so nicely I'd have to in the end but making your wait for it and watching you try so hard to be good would be so hot. Obviously I'd have you in my bed too, it doesn't matter if you're asleep I use you as I please because you're my pet. I'd love to wake you up to sliding my cock into you and choke you so you don't make too much sound, it is early afterall. (Primal anon)
Oooh god I'll be such a good pet for you master I'll be so good, I'd love to cock warm you or god if you just wanna play with me I'll be entertainment for you!! Watch how eager I am to please you master look how soft and warm I am, how wet I get for you at just a look
Oh, to wake up to you sliding your cock into me bc you just couldn't wait, to feel my buncunt stretch to fit you, and your hand on my throat goooooddddddd
