What happened to them?
Disappearance of the Dwarves
CHIM
Numidum skin, or Zero summed collectively, or both.
Manletocalypse
Erased themselves from existence
They soul trapped themselves to the Numidum on accident.
Became so Euphoricâ„¢ that they zero-summed from existence
they depenalized abortion and promoted feminism, transexualism and homosexualism.
They're still around, but working behind the scenes.
They didn't Zero Sum you retards. If they Zero Summed there wouldn't be any traces of them left for people to remember.
They actually just got banished from Nirn for inventing the Numidium.
Became shades i guess.
They intended to bind themselves to the numidium.
We learn from Yagrum Kags math did not hold up under peer review.
Add to this he attempted to do this under duress as the dungmer were about to breach his lab.
What ended up happening is they ended up trapped in the soul gems powering their automatons.
This is backed up in Skyrim.
A mage attempts to recreate the disappearance. Granted it was using a dubious theory on an imperfect substitute with possible fradulent and incomplete set of tools but to some extent it worked.
When it did the mage became bound to the nearest available soul gem, the player.
With all that being said nobody knows what happened to them.
What happened to the dwarves is one of the core mysteries of the Elder Scrolls games, and will likely never be answered. Same answer to the question of who actually wrote the elder scrolls.
We come from the earth and must remain. Those who attempt to slip the surly bonds of earth, must eventually pay. Many such cases.
Realize they weren't real dwarfs and were in fact elgi scum, so they killed themselves.
but that means...
Dwarves aren't dwarves in The Elder Scrolls. They're just elves with beards that dress like Babylonians.
>Dwarves aren't dwarves
Next you're gonna tell me that Orcs are actually Elves.
I don't know about the Orcs, I haven't read the lore that far yet.
That mage in College of Winterhold finds out. Problem is, he ends up doing a bit too good of a job of finding out...
They acheived a new medium aka they became anumidium
I like the theory that they got teleported to other dimension
probably this
They killed an essential NPC.
Lorelet here. what is the Numidium.
It's a giant robot that doesn't play nicely with reality.
Reality is what you make of it.
Lorelet here, what numidium skip
*Skin
It's Talos's robot that he used to conquer the planet and become Talos. It's made from the dead body of every single Dwemer and powered by Lorkhan's heart.
Some digger tried making a Fried Melon.
I wrote the Elder Scrolls
Nice one
