The Elder Scrolls 6 Theory Nonhumans Could Take Over Tamriel

While any news about The Elder Scrolls 6 is likely a long ways off, it’s possible to use knowledge of all games in The Elder Scrolls franchise to make educated theories about what’s to come, and that makes it possible that nonhumans could be the next rulers of Tamriel. It’s anticipated the next franchise installment will reveal the canonical winner of Skyrim’s civil war, which will in turn inform fans about what faction has taken control over Tamriel. Given the trajectory of events in recent Tamriel history, the probability that the new rulers will be something other than human seems higher than ever.

In the opening moments of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion, players witness the death of Uriel Septim VII, Emperor of Tamriel. On the surface, this meant the end of the Septim line, but actually signified something much darker was afoot. One of the secret duties of the Emperor was to use the Amulet of Kings to keep the Dragonfires lit, which served as a barrier between the mortal plane and Oblivion. As a result of the Septim dynasty ending, the gate opened, causing the crisis at the center of Oblivion, allowing Daedric creatures to wreak havoc on Cyrodiil.

Ultimately, the crisis is stopped, but the beastly barrage continues. The central conflict and main quest in The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim isn’t about the weakening Empire, it’s focused on a dragon attack. Additionally, circumstances predating Skyrim’s civil war include the Great War, in which the Altmer made a grab for power, ultimately settling into a truce with the Empire. It’s altogether possible that the end of the Septim dynasty didn’t only usher in chaos from Oblivion, but also marked the end of human rule in Tamriel, opening the possibility for other races or beasts to take over.

If this turns out to be true, it’s most likely one of the sentient playable races in The Elder Scrolls will take control. The Altmer could break its treaty with the fading Empire, especially if the Nords win Skyrim’s civil war, and resume their quest for power. Alternately, the Khajiit or Argonians, often treated like second-class citizens in The Elder Scrolls lore, could rise – their mutual oppression could even pave the way for an alliance between the two nations to help them toward Tamrielic rule.

The other route The Elder Scrolls 6 could take is much more primal, in which actual beasts and monsters assume leadership of the land. Playing off the return of dragons in Skyrim, it’s possible the surviving intelligent, powerful creatures banded together to start a second Dragon War and enslave the humans of Tamriel. There are also a host of beasts in The Elder Scrolls Online that could make an appearance as potential overlords, though it is unlikely. Additionally, if the vampires canonically block out the sun in Skyrim’s Dawnguard expansion, The Elder Scrolls 6 could be overrun with undead creatures, turning the game’s narrative into a fight for survival.
