This TikTok video has been circulating through various digital avenues, including on Reddit where it was posted by a fan ofThe Elder Scrollsknown as sKritivas.

In the video, the TikToker is facing away in thought as he turns and walks towards the camera in a way that’s eerily similar to NPCs engaging in a dialogue inThe Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion. With his chin resting on his hand, the TikToker speaks like anOblivionNPC just as he resembles one. As the camera zooms in on his face, the TikToker says “there is no such thing as a coincidence.” There are several lines of recorded dialogue inThe Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivionand this is just one of many that the TikToker could have chosen.
TikTok is currently experiencing server issues, but the full viral video of this TikToker includes a jogger who passes by before he stares her down and she screams. Redditors in the comments lament the fact that this scene has been cut from the Reddit clip of this video as several TikTokers saw it as anOblivionNPC vaporizing unsuspecting joggers. Based on his attire in the viral TikTok video, particularly his amulet, some Redditors are calling this TikToker a mage.
Some Redditors have suggested that the reason this TikToker is uncanny to anOblivionNPC is his overall face structure. The TikToker has long eyes and pointed ears that are perfectly symmetrical. The bone structure of his face is as smooth as thetextures used inThe Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion. One Redditor claims to have known this TikToker since high school and claims that he has always looked like anOblivionNPC, despite his goatee doubtlessly being a new addition.
Among the conversations about this TikTokers' appearance, several Redditors also discussed the up-close nature of NPC dialogues inOblivion. SeveralSkyrimfans spoke against it, while others mentioneda mod forThe Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrimthat brings that feature to the latestElder Scrollstitle. The next mainline title in the franchise isn’t expected for several years yet, butThe Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivionmay get renewed interest with viral videos like this TikTok clip.
