They wield powerful axes infused with lightning, and may combine in phalanx formations to channel light and deter trespassers.
They are formidable foes that wield shock-based magic, and are resistant to both magic and lightning. Warm colors are the easiest for them to manipulate. These beings have magical control over color and hue, and are capable of manipulating certain spectra of light into working on their behalf. Their armor usually appears golden in tone, but since they come from the Colored Rooms, Aurorans can be of any hue. Some have even migrated through Valenwood and into the Colovian Lowlands of Cyrodiil.Īurorans are an idealized humanoid race of Daedra in the service of Meridia. To the Redguards, this transformation represented a lesson from the gods they believe the Samara Scarabs were smitten by the Hunger of Sep, to teach even the youngest child a valuable lesson about the dangers of their new home on Tamriel.Īssassin Beetles can be found across Hammerfell and the islands of the Abecean. However, once on Tamriel they began to continue growing to monstrous sizes as they matured, forcing the early Redguards to drive the beetles from their homes and into the wild, where they flourished and became baneful. After Yokuda's destruction in the First Era, Samara Scarabs were brought to Tamriel with the Redguards. These ancestral Samara Scarabs only grew to the size of a loaf of bread, and were a popular family pet known for playing with children. Their shells are dark or red in color, and they have the ability to cloak themselves in shadow to strike their prey from behind.Īssassin Beetles were originally native to Yokuda, likely the island of Samara.

The moths maintain a connection to the ancient magic that allows the Moth Priest to decipher them. The cult harvest the silk and undergo a magical ritual to enchant the fabric.Īncestor moths are also used by Moth Priests in the Ritual of the Ancestor Moth in order to read an Elder Scroll. But to the Cult of the Ancestor Moth, they are one of the same. In the Nibenay, this silk harvest is a sacred tradition that dates back to their early history.
The singing and hymnal vocals of the ancestors are collected into a special silk-gathering ceremony, which is the ancestor silk. The Nibenese are known to use the ancestor silk of the gypsy-moth to craft exotic cloth, and export to others across the provinces. The Ancestor Moth is sacred to the Imperials of Cyrodiil, specifically, the Cyro-Nords of the Nibenay. The Ancestor Moth is a rare indigenous gypsy-moth of Cyrodiil, and the Ancestor Glades of Tamriel, said to be kept alive by the loving spirits of the dearly-deceased, and grant wisdom and knowledge to those they come upon.
