It's Probably Got Some Syntax Or Other That We Haven't Clarified, My Bet Is That It's A Way Of Referring

It's probably got some syntax or other that we haven't clarified, my bet is that it's a way of referring to themselves as children of the moons. (Having their form determined by the lunar lattice could have that effect) Similarly, it is said that the desert was made by Y'ffer in to harm Khajiit. But their philosophies and even the Riddle'Thar seem to demand that they accept the hardship. Odds are they take pride in their ability to survive in the harsh environments.

I rly wonder about the ethymology of Ja'Kha'jay too? Literally, it would mean “baby moon”, “mooncub” but that’s weird? Also, is the semblance between khaj (desert) and kha'jay (moon) something intentional, despite them being two different things and the apostrophe in kha'jay indicating a potential root from two separate words?

Scarlet Briar

Kneel demands the dragon witch, Eyes burning like coal. Her long rifle doth seek the heart, Her eyes doth seek the soul. No, sayeth the heroes bold, We will not act for naught. Our hearts are ours as are our souls, 'Twas your black heart we sought.

After the absolute fiasco that the Mass Effect books culminated in, I had no interest in remembering anything from the otherwise wonderful and illuminating literature.

the lack of attention the comics and novels get from not only the fans but bioware themselves makes me really sad cause everyone assumes nyreen was the first female turian ever but that’s not entirely true

nyreen was first in-game, yes, but the first visually depicted turian in the whole franchise was lieutenant abrudas, from the comic mass effect: evolution:

and even before abrudas, ambassador orinia [link] has the distinction of being the first female turian in the franchise anywhere, from the novel mass effect: retribution, in which she’s actually a major character.

like idk man i love nyreen but she’s not the first female turian, and it makes me sad that other awesome characters fall by the wayside just because bioware cares so little about its supplementary material it doesn’t even bother letting people know it exists after it’s published

Since Khajiit are born under very specific Lunar cycles, I'd say their celebration is less individual and more of a group effort.

I can imagine a small army of similar looking specimens gathering in celebration every phase for loud and raucous celebration of their particular phenotype.

Also it's fun to imagine a birthday party for a hundred housecat sized mages.

lets have a headcanon thread to clear the air. reblog this with your favorite TES race + if/how you think they celebrate birthdays
