Headcanon ExplanationsEdit
- Since Scalons and Spawn Mothers are classified as Grummites, I've concluded that Grummites are a caste based species somewhat similar to Kwama, but are capable of interbreeding like termites.
- Gnomes are insectoid fey-like creatures.
- Daggerfall's Sabertooth Tigers are Thylacines.
- Lizard Men are raptorlike creatures that can use tools and mimic speech, closely related to the Tamrielic species Verminous Fabricants originated from.
- Kobolds are a pygmy tribe of Argonians from deep Black Marsh.
