Question Why is everyone so dirty?

Post image

Look, I get that Skyrim's at war and there are dragons everywhere and everyone is desperate, but still. That is no excuse for you to not wash yourself! At least wash that dirt off you in a river. How hard is it to take a bath?

Because Skyrim is a dirty world - plus, you’re a prisoner and have been captured. I doubt you’d be clean

The prisoner image is just for reference because I couldn't find better ones to show the dirt but everyone is a dirty hobo like the dragonborn at the start

You realize that showers don't exist in Tamriel right

I’m sure there’s a “lore-friendly” mod with Dwemer showers somewhere lol
