Cyranrir’s bad habits

I don’t much like Cyranrir.  You’ll remember him– Cyrelian’s father, that paragon of revolutionary spirit.  Much to the collective relief of the Thalmor, Cyranrir is safely deceased long before the start of Cyrelian’s story.  He was too much for them even in their rowdier early days.

Cyranrir  thought that the Altmer had gotten way too civilized and comfortable, so he spent some time in Tamriel exploring– and ruthlessly pillaging from–other cultures.

If the sages at Crystal-Law denounced it; if those who still ward Ceporah Tower decried it– well, Cyranrir would go and make a habit of it, just to make a point.

Mod above is Viking’s Longhouse – amazing house mod based on historical research.

Here is Cyranrir in his lavish little townhouse in Cyrodiil: Mona Alta which is just a goregous residence. I wouldn’t expect much of a frame-rate though.  I took these pictures months ago– so long ago that I think this is sans ENB.

 

And of course this is Barbaric Male Armor — the mod which captured my attention with the words “there’s penises here so”.

How far we’ve come, lol.

Oh, and Cyranrir– then nameless– was made as a model in response to a few commenters who had swooped in to crap all over the comment section.

I believe his friend here is Chaconne.

What’s a Thalmor doing in an Imperial City Apartment with a ridiculously young Bosmer in 4e10? Best not to ask.

 

In Valenwood with a different friend, this time just prior to the 4th era:

The NPC is based on Auveren — actually all of this mod author’s NPCs are nicely done.

We’ll see more of him and Cyranrir later.

    I’m going to indulge in pretending that pic #2 is a sauna. Cause sitting naked on a wooden bench with knitting is my idea of heaven…

    It almost looks like that, yah.

    It’s just a padded bench, though. Sort of unique is the fact that it’s a chair and a bed, which is not that common for Skyrim as it’s two different types of furniture. I’m not quite sure how they squashed it together.

    I do have a couple houses with sauna that I’ll probably use later.

    He looks rather regal in the first set of pics. I was going to say stately, but I don’t believe heads of state govern (publicly at least) in loin cloths. Hmmm, politics would be a lot more interesting if they did! Wait – heads of state are often gray and portly. Never mind, the mental pictures I just conjured up made me queasy.

    Well, I’ve gone and disgusted myself. After enjoying your really really nice pics. XD

    Hahaha!

    Well, to be fair this is sort of an odd time in history for the Altmeri.
    Probably our equivalent of being governed by a bunch of angry high schoolers.

    I think the population considered it better than the alternative.

    Maybe it would be for us, too.

    Ha! Angry highschoolers would be an upgrade from the current governing leaders in the US! 😀 And that’s all I’ll say 🙂
