Online talk:Scamp

A scamp, but...

In the Hollow City there is a creature named Gibbers, who looks like a scamp, but with horns like a banekin, and spikes on the back like a daedroth. How do we categorize this creature? Are there any other examples of daedric "mixes"?   ~Shuryard (talk) 03:23, 11 April 2015 (GMT)

That's weird. Maybe that's meant to be a Coldharbour scamp? Other Daedra have different, blue-tinted skins when they're encountered at Dark Anchors, etc. Compare this to this or this. Even if he is his own unique morphotype, I say we still categorize him as a scamp - same model, same attacks. There's precedent with Oblivion:Hjalti (although there's also precedent to the opposite effect with Online:Auroran Battlemage). —Legoless (talk) 03:32, 11 April 2015 (GMT)

I am wondering, if Daedra are created from the Azure Plasm that accretes around a vestige until it conforms to the morphotype's inherent pattern, does it mean a Padomaic vestige can be modified? Are there any texts on that?   ~Shuryard (talk) 04:06, 11 April 2015 (GMT)

Don't know if there's any official texts on that, especially since the chaotic creatia stuff is new with ESO. As far as I understand it, lesser Daedra usually reform according to their rank and clan. Only the Princes have the ability to create new types of Daedra, like Sheogorath's Saints or Molag Bal's Titans. Mortals can only bind Daedric vestiges to inanimate constructs. However, I somehow doubt these realities were considered when designing Gibbers. —Legoless (talk) 13:10, 11 April 2015 (GMT)

I can't help but wonder about the intention behind creation of such a creature (from devs pov). I believe it is much easier to simply duplicate another scamp (with slightly different skin shade for instance), than construct a new creature from pieces of others... There should be a purpose. However, I might be reading too much into this :)   ~Shuryard (talk) 17:23, 11 April 2015 (GMT)
