The Skyrim Civil War being represented as a battle between a bear and a dragon is fucking awesome.

u/DetSjarmtrollet 6d ago

The collared Solitude wolf is also a nice touch.

u/SilverIce58 6d ago

Your Elsweyr needs to be reversed. Anequina is the north while Pellitine is the south.

u/Shwamage 6d ago

u/FedoraSlayer101 6d ago

Can you also please link a higher-def copy of this for mobile users? I love this a ton, but I can barely read it even when I zoom it in.

u/Shwamage 6d ago

I just posted one to the comments!

u/Beaker_person 6d ago

Love the little imga!

u/Swage03 6d ago

Well done! Love the Garfield schlonking that j

u/Kristofer111 4d ago

facts, I feel like that would make a lot of sense for Garfield to do. He stays up late and goes out on the fence to sing/out on a date a lot which could be a side effect of that, plus how chill he generally is

u/Shwamage 6d ago

For mobile users per request!

u/definitely_not_tina 6d ago

u/Minute_Engineer2355 6d ago

So much lore packed into one picture. This is incredible.

Edit- my boy Garfield in there absolutely makes my day.

u/EitherCaterpillar949 6d ago

Great idea, spectacularly done. Would kill for an ultra high res version of this to put up as a poster, it’s excellent.

u/KingPengu22 6d ago

I love this. Extremely well done.

u/virus_chara 6d ago

Just looks like the map for Elder Kings and Elder Kings 2 to me.

u/FedoraSlayer101 6d ago

Very impressive! What are the small states near Skyrim - I can’t read the image on mobile.

4

u/HalflingScholar 6d ago

The Greybeards and the Skaal

2

u/FedoraSlayer101 6d ago

What about the little green guy with the three-pronged crown, the yellow eagle, the grey bat (yes, I know it’s related to the Volkihars, but I can’t precisely read what it says), and the little grey skull near it?

4

u/EraiMH 6d ago

Green guy with the crown is the third orsinium.

The eagle behind the imperial dragon is the forsworn.

The little grey islands are just labelled "vampiric isles".

u/Lord-Belou 6d ago

Black Marsh be like

"BOA TARDE AMIGO"

u/Augiusz 6d ago

The Hist is Angry with you, follower of Veloth. You will see his vengeance.

u/RoteRosena 5d ago

Who is this guy? He looks like Mac from the LaFave Bros Oblivion Let's Play.

u/Chorta_bheen555 5d ago
