Small physical things that give your characters personality

How they smile

What their “tell” is for lying

Posture

Volume of speech, if they’re verbal

Nervous tics

How much eye contact do they make

In a group conversation, how close do they stand to others? Are they off to the side just listening and occasionally speaking or are they right next to people?

When standing, what do they do with their hands? Talk with their hands, cross their arms, put hands in pockets, prop up against the wall, etc

The sound of their footsteps

Nonverbal greetings: do they wave, nod, hug, glare, punch, high five, something else?

How do they get others’ attention? Raise hand, clear throat, etc

She waited patiently for the kitten to come to her so they could cuddle

The Elder Scrolls Language Families

This is heavily based off of the speculated tree from UESP: Ehlnofex Languages featuring my own speculations.

Notes: Old Cyrodilic is partly based on Ayleidoon, Nedic and Tsaesci. Old Cyrodilic can be thought of as a pidegonlanguage or possibly a lingua franca.

*Dwemeris is spoken by some scholars, but not in a speech community.

**I speculate Ashland is a dialect of Dunmeris. 

+Spoken by Gelebor and known by some scholars.

The choice to call something a language versus a dialect is largely political so I went based off of my judgments.

I chose to call Snow Elvish, Snow Elvish over Falmeris because Gelebor prefers to be called a Snow Elf :)

@uesp I'd love to hear your thoughts! Particularly on the dialects! (Also Tumblr killed the image quality so DM me if you want to see the clearer image)

Something like this would be so colossally helpful. I'm sick and tired of trying to research specific clothing from any given culture and being met with either racist stereotypical costumes worn by yt people or ai generated garbage nonsense, and trying to be hyper specific with searches yields fuck all. Like I generally just cannot trust the legitimacy of most search results at this point. It's extremely frustrating. If there are good resources for this then they're buried deep under all the other bullshit, and idk where to start looking.

Just a timelapse.
