Chimer

The Chimer, or "Changed Ones", are a race now known collectively as the Dunmer, or Dark Elves. They were exiled from The Summerset Isles by the other Altmer because of their belief in Daedra Worship. Led by the Prophet Veloth, the Chimer migrated to what is now known as Morrowind. After the events of The Battle of Red Mountain, the goddess Azura cursed the Chimer, giving them ashen faces and fierce red eyes. Thus the Dunmer were created, and the Chimer disappeared.
