Love it or leave it, The Elder Scrolls has transformed the face of the video game culture with its "do anything, go anywhere" design philosophy. Every magical fantasy, from dragon slaying to ancient lore collecting, can be enjoyed somewhere in the series. Since real-life mythology is packed with examples of humans transforming into terrifying creatures and hefty monsters, it makes sense that one of the most extensive power fantasy sandboxes of the age should offer the same dark bargain.
