"Although I don't know exactly what 'cloud emulsifier' is. But 'emulsifier' is usually used in necromantic magic." Grand Librarian Brelina Mayo is always knowledgeable: "It is believed that Terra The Sload slugs on the Thras Islands use a Sload Soap brewed by their descendants as an emulsifier in necromancy rituals to significantly enhance the power of necromancy. "
The Terras Islands are located in the Sea of Pearls (Sea of Pearls) to the west of Summerset Island and south of the continent of Yokuda. Little is known about this archipelago, as it is often shrouded in mist and seems to be constantly changing locations. On the earliest known map from the Third Age, Terras is shown to be a collection of sixteen islands. A semicircular coral archipelago, but its shape was variously recorded over the following centuries. The largest of the Tyras Islands was called Agonio, and according to until the Judging from the drawings of surveyors sent out at different times in the Third Era, Agnior Island was growing larger and larger. No one knows whether it was the power of sea water or some kind of magical power that changed the appearance of this archipelago. The only thing that remained unchanged in Terras during these changes was that there was a lagoon in the center, where there seemed to be some kind of coral. The Internet enables Slodians to move quickly between islands. In addition, before the fleet arrived there, there used to be a Coral Tower in the center of the island. According to records, this tower was made of blood-red coral and was thousands of feet tall - larger than anything known in Tamriel. The architecture of an intelligent race. The Slodians would perform rituals on the tower and force the sacrifices to fall from the top of the tower for sacrifice. Most of the sacrifices would be smashed into pulp, but a few disappeared before landing. No one knew where they went. Some scholars believe that the tower may be a portal between Nirn and Oblivion.
"Sload" is a compound word composed of slug and toad, so Sload people can also be called "slug people". This is very consistent with their appearance. Slod is huge and bloated, with a body as smooth and sticky as a slug, but also has webbed feet like a toad, curved legs, and eyes that are very similar to a toad (but This does not mean that Slode cannot see things that are still). Perhaps you will not find a more repulsive looking creature among the known creatures of Tamriel.
Due to his huge body, Slode is very clumsy and can barely move his fat body with his limbs. It is said that Slod's size will gradually increase with age. When he was young, Slod could still wriggle forward like a slug, but as an adult, Slod could only rely on magic to move himself. Slod has a vocal organ, but it is very imperfect. Slod's own language is therefore garbled, and not many people in Tamriel can understand it to this day.
If the above description makes you think that Slodder is a stupid creature, you are wrong. Contrary to his lowly appearance, Throd possesses amazing intelligence and thinking ability, and the average level may even exceed that of the intelligent races in Tamriel. Different from the thinking of mortals, Slod's thinking is extremely careful and cautious. In Slodian, the word "adventure" is equivalent to "tragic disaster (Tragic Disaster)", and it is said that in their own legends, any Adventure stories must end in tragedy. According to existing records, Slod have no writing or the ability to read text, and their fat arms prevent them from writing anything down. However, they make up for this with their super memory. It is said that they can look at anything at a glance , Slod will never forget it for the rest of his life.
Due to physical clumsiness. Slodians basically do not have any melee capabilities, but thanks to their extraordinary intelligence, almost all Slods are powerful mages, especially proficient in necromancy, and many people in Tamriel have never seen of mysterious magic. According to records, Slod magic is extremely dark, dirty, and terrifying, such as capturing sea creatures for biochemical transformation, or using slaves as sacrifices to perform dark rituals. Slods also use teleportation magic to move quickly, and some legends mention that Slods even have their own spaceships.
Slod people also have shrewd business minds. Some rumors mention that many Slod secretly smuggled slaves and other contraband from the mainland.
The values of the Throd and the people of Tamriel are very different. Current records generally believe that the Slodians are hermaphroditic creatures and do not have the sense of morality or honor recognized by Tamriel people, and they do not even have emotions, even for their own offspring. The Throd do not worship any gods known to Tamriel. Although from time to time, they will make deals with the demon gods of Annihilation, these are limited to exchange of benefits rather than worship. It is said that they believe in their own "God of Worms". Slodians only recognize interests and rational choices, and any means to achieve goals and interests are reasonable and acceptable. Nor do they feel any compunction about desecration, theft, kidnapping, murder, genocide, or any other act that would further their goals. As long as they believe it is in their best interests. Although in some unknown records, the Throd worshiped unspeakable horrors under the deep sea, it is impossible to imagine what that might be with the cognitive level of Tamriel.
Because the difference between the values of Throd and the races of Tamriel is so strong, they naturally became the race of Tamriel - they are the great enemies of the high elves, and the Throd are omnipotent in battle, and they are incompatible with their The struggle became the most brutal struggle in the history of Summerset Island, comparable to the struggle between the high elves and the sea elves. However, unlike the anchormor (sea elves), the slods were not against the high elves. In fact, they were against any other intelligence. The races are hostile.
When the Redguard's hometown of Yokuda was destroyed, the Redguard followed tradition and buried some of their dead on the southern island of Yokuda as a memorial. These dead were resurrected by Slod using necromancy and launched an attack on the Redguard. Finally stopped by the Red Guards.
During the period from 1E 2260 to 1E 2280, Throd unleashed the famous Thrassian Plague on Tamriel. This plague dwarfed all subsequent plagues in Tamriel. The whole of Tamriel, especially the western coastal provinces, was littered with corpses, and Tamriel's population dropped by half. Under an unprecedented threat, all the forces in Tamriel united for the first and only time to date, forming the famous All Flags Navy and marching toward the Terras Islands together. After paying a heavy price, , the fleet killed all the Slod they saw to stop the plague, but when the situation was over, Slod used magic to detonate the Coral Tower, and the Terras Islands sank to the bottom of the sea together with the Coral Tower, and then formed the Baal The Maelstorm of Bal, half of the ships of the Ten Thousand Flagship were sucked into the Maelstorm and never returned to Tamriel. It is said that the ships that were pulled into the maelstrom were teleported to Cold Harbor, where they fell from the sky one by one and landed on the dead ground in the Stone Fist area. Many crew members survived the fall. The captain of the Golden Era made a pact with Molag Bal, the daemon of Coldharbour. He became the Admiral of the Lost Fleet and was awarded the Crown of Bones, which cursed himself and his sailors to become immortal skeletons but allowed him complete control over their actions. The skeleton admiral ordered his skeleton crew to begin building a new coral tower, hoping to use it to reach the entrance to the maelstrom in the sky and return to Nirn.
After that, the surviving Throd re-raised the Tyras Islands, but they did not take action against Tamriel again for thousands of years. The Plague of Terras was also the most brutal attack from outside the continent that Tamriel had suffered in history.
Since the Plague of Terras, the Throdians have been silent for a long time. No one knows what they may be planning, whether they are still obsessed with revenge against Tamriel, and we also pray that the Plague of Terras will be the first This is also the last time they act. Because whether it's the Akaviri, the Pandonians, or even the more ancient Yokudans and Atmorans, no invasion of Tamriel by any race will leave a mark like the Throd. Such an unprecedented loss of life.
Some records claim that Slod was once a native of Summerset Island, but left Summerset Island for unknown reasons, and thus continued to invade Summerset Island again and again, but this statement It has not been confirmed yet.
