On Talos

"The Stormcrown mantled by way of the fourth: the steps of the dead. Mantling and incarnation are separate roads; do not mistake this. The latter is built from the cobble sof drawn-bone destine. The former: walk like them until they must walk like you." - Nu-Hatta of the Sphinxmoth Inquiry Tree

"Jubal looks over at Talos, who has become Lorkhan." - C0DA

"The second to see the Brass God was the Enantiomorph. You may know them individually as Zurin Arctus and Talos. The Overwouls was known to the world as Tiber Septim." - Skeleton Man's Interview with Denizen's of Tamriel.

"The individual known as Talos Stormcrown, or General Talos, is believed to possible be the combined oversoul of Wulfharth and Hjalti Early-Beart. The reasoning behind this possible Stormcrown bridging between the two is based on Wulfharth's supposed visit to Hjalti's camp at the battle of Old Hroldan." - This actual fucking wiki

TALOS is Wulfharth, Zurin, and Hjalti. TALOS mantled Lorkhan, and therefore became Lorkhan. He maintained his own individualality likely because of CHIM.

 On Thalmor 

"To kill Man is to reach Heaven, from where we came before the Doom Drum's iniquity. When we accomplish this, we can escape the mockery and long shame of the Material Prison.

To achieve this goal, we must:

1) Erase the Upstart Talos from the mythic. His presence fortifies the Wheel of Convention, and binds our souls to this plane.

2) Remove Man not just from the world, but from the Pattern of Possibility, so that the very idea of them can be forgotten and thereby never again repeated.

3) With Talos and the Sons of Talos removed, the Dragon will become ours to unbind. The world of mortals will be over. The Dragon will uncoil his hold on the stagnancy of linear time and move as a Free Serpent again, moving through the Aether without measure or burden, spilling time along the innumerable roads we once travelled. And with that we will regain the mantle of imperishable spirit." - In character Dev post.

Do I need to explain how this is talking about the Dawn Era? Do I need to explain how Kirkbride's posts are not part of the lore of the Elder Scrolls? Have you ever bothered reading The Elder Scrolls Novels?

Talos is not Lorkhan, there is absolutely no evidence of this utterly unbased claim. Likewise, Talos' CHIM is questioned in its own right. Oh, I get it now. You don't understand TES lore. Ok, that's fine.
