Worship of Talos Banned?!?!

[Deimos]

Okay, so I heard somewhere (thought I can't remember where at the moment) that the worship of Talos/Tiber Septim is banned in Skyrim, which seem odd, seeing as how he is originally from Skyrim. Anyway, does anyone know why this would be? Also, will you be able to follow a certain Aedra or Daedra?

Alredy a thread for this I belive but it may have been in one of those genric new infemation threads.


As for why my guess is that its not the same person, Talos is a mix of pepole and is the Empires take on it, most likely trhe nords dont share it

Your not the only one and the mods do not post links to them when closing new threads either. Something I think they should do as standard before closing new threads.

Dont they have a temple for tiber septim in the mountains? I could swear I saw concept art. Anyway, Tiber Septim founded one of the eras, so it makes sense for the rebels to censor him.

Maybe that's the stone head in that one forest picture. It might be remnants of a statue of Talos. That would be interesting.

I have a feeling it has something to do with the persecution of the Blades. I guess Lorkhan just isn't meant to be a part of the Imperial Pantheon, having been kicked out twice now: once as Shezarr, and again as Talos.

Well, Skyrim IS in the middle of a civil war with one side fighting for the Empire and the other side fighting against it. I would assume that the anti-Empire side banned worshiping Talos because he's the biggest representation of the Empire itself. It doesn't matter if Tiber Septim was a Nord or not, he was the start of the Empire that they (the Stormcloaks) wish to secede from. This is just my theory of the whole thing.

Actually, this would be assuming that the Stormcloaks have as much or more political power than the Empire, which I doubt they have seeing that they're the rebels. I read that someone thinks the Empire banned it to make Tiber Septim a less important figure and give the Nords less power.

Use the edit button please.

I think that the political power between the Empire and the rebels is split. I'm not sure though.

A rebel as far as i know is on the throne, he killed the king and says he is now king, how ever not evrey one agrees

A rebel just killed the king and wants the throne
