This s'wit pisses me off. So you're playing a Dunmer, and you enter Windhelm for the first time. Rolff Stone-Fist constantly gets drunk and angry and insults the Dunmer and accuses them of being spies. You can talk to him, listen to his insults, and then click [Brawl] to kick his ass for dissing your Dunmer brethren. But let's say you're playing a true Nord. You walk into Windhelm, and join the Stormcloaks because you realize that Ulfric is the hero that Skyrim needs and the most based individual in all of Tamriel. Besides you of course, because you're a Shezzarine and are better at Thu'um than him. Then you walk up to this s'wit, and he asks you if you're one of those "Skyrim for the Nords" types. Well of course you are. You're trying to save Skyrim from Elven tyranny and you're fighting for freedom. So you tell him Skyrim belongs to the Nords. And what does he do? He gets mad at you for supporting the man who would allow you to worship the god of your fathers, who would stand up for your people against foreign invaders. He calls you a milk-drinker every time you run into him. "What do you want, Milk-Drinker?" "What do you want, Milk-Drinker?" "What do you want, Milk-Drinker?" "What do you want, Milk-Drinker?" So this self-hating, loathsome, pitiful social justice warrior Nord insults YOU, the Dragonborn, the champion of the Stormcloak army. And you can't do anything about it! You can't kill him, because he's essential because if you sided with the Legion they would put this douchebag in charge of Eastmarch after murdering Ulfric. But you don't even have a brawl option. You don't have the option, as a mighty hero and true Nord warrior, to kick the ass of this loathsome, cowardly old man for insulting you while you have been risking your life for HIS freedom. Why is this? Why can't you kick this fetcher's ass?

>>677 Folks like to pretend Ulfric is some kind of huge racist s'wit for putting the Dark Elves and Argonians in separate districts.
First of all, letting any outlander take residence in your city is clearly a big fucking deal to these people, since you have to fight a war, kill a dragon, or clear out a vampire den to be even be considered worthy of purchasing a home in any hold of Skyrim. For the Dark Elves to have been allowed into the city in mass numbers to become a real minority, they couldn't have all done massive Dragonborn-level quests, and were probably let in based on nothing more than the kindness of the Nords hearts in the first fucking place, as a special exception. Being bigoted against them isn't warranted or anything, but to act like they have no reason to fight in the name of their new home is to show some serious lack of appreciation on their part.
Secondly, separating the Argonians and the Dark Elves is a really, really good idea if you know their history. In the ESIII Morrowind days, Dark Elves, including 2 of the 3 houses excluding Rhedoran, traded Argonians around as slaves. Shortly after the Oblivion Crisis, Argoninas took their revenge by invading Morrowind, and doing a damned good job of it too. If there are any two races that hate each other in TES (besides the Nords and the Altmer)(and the Bretons and the Orcs), it's those two. Keep them the hell apart!
The only legitimate instance of Ulfic being a racist is in Free-Winters dialogue, where he says Ulfric doesn't stop criminals from preying on the elves. Other evidence of this? Little. But why would he lie? He has nothing to gain by making Ulfic look like a bad guy and turning people toward the Legion. Oh… wait…

He got kicked out when the nobles of Falkreath called for a replacement, either because Denegir went bonkers over time or because Imperial agents bribed them, take your pick.

>>5161 By endgame the LDB is well on the path to mantling Tiber Septim. I'm thinking in the next game we might hear of a "Dragonborn conqueror" in the north or something.
Given the cyclical nature of so many things in Tamriel, isn't it about time we had another Ysmir sweeping down from the north?
Either way the Cyrodillic empire has been looking to be on it's way out for some time now. Hell, Wulfarth pops down just to tell the Nerevarine the empire is toast and just, y'know, give him a general pat on the back besides.

Personally I choose that Ulfric is a foolish fetcher.
The Empire is mans only hope of surviving the Thalmor menace. The Stormcloaks are playing right into their hands by weakening the Empire's hold over Skyrim.

>>5390 >Empire only hope of survival against elves >Empire got fucked up so bad they had to agree to the banning of their chief deity/founder of the empire. The empire was dying before even Uriel Septim VII got assassinated. Caius Cosades even said the empire was dying back in Morrowind, 200+ years prior to the events in Skyrim.
All it took was one little war. The Nords were right to rebel. The Empire is only looking out for itself at the moment, has no interest other than sucking elf dick long enough to stay alive.

>The Emperor is getting old. Don't know how much longer he'll hang on. So is the whole Empire, for that matter. Getting old, that is. The Emperor and the legions have held the Empire together for hundreds of years. It's been a good thing, by and large. But maybe it's time for a change. Time for something young and new. What? No idea. Because I'm old. Old dog doesn't get new ideas. But maybe young folks like you should try some new ideas. I don't know. Could be messy. But change is never pretty

>>3002 No, and that's the biggest misconception everyone seems to have about the Civil War. The Thalmor want there to be a constant state of war, so Skyrim can be easily destroyed by the two weakened armies.
Also, although Ulfric is mentioned in that dossier as being an "asset", he's been telling them to fuck off and the Thalmor don't want a Stormcloak victory either
