"When I saw my friend killed, I swore I'd be a true knight and right all wrongs. So now I gotta do some good deeds. I don't know much about being a knight. But I'm gonna learn."
―Mazoga the Orc, The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
Hello, PA here. I am pleased to present the first weekly update on the merged Forums/Discussions! In the off chance that this is the first you have heard of the weekly updates, these are published by the News Team every weekend to inform you on news on The Elder Scrolls, The Elder Scrolls Wiki, and Fandom, from the past week. With that, let's dive in! There appears to be nothing new for Blades.

The Monthly Reward card for August 2020 has been announced as Skooma Cat's Whimsy! It is a 1-cost Neutral support card that gives a 1 Magicka discount to all cards that did not start in your deck. This includes cards you stole from your opponent with a card like Thieves Guild Shadowfoot, or ones that are generated by one of your own cards, like Mudcrab Merchant. Check out how to gain Skooma Cat Whimsy, and how to use it in your own decks, in the announcement article.
The Grand Melee is back this weekend! Entry costs six Event Tickets or 1000 Gold, with up to three runs maximum allowed per player. Earn gold, packs, Event Tickets, and a premium alternate art Baandari Opportunist by winning. This in-game event began on Friday and will end at 12pm ET on Monday, August 31.
The Elder Scrolls Online: Stonethorn and Update 27 went live for PC/Mac, and Stadia on the 24th this week. It is the third DLC in ESO's year-long Dark Heart of Skyrim storyline, and includes two new dungeons. If you want to read more about what the DLC and Update adds, have a read of the official release article or the blog post I published which briefly summarizes this.
There was an ESO Live on Friday where the Community Team went through one of the new dungeons, Castle Thorn, alongside two notable streamers from the ESO community. If you missed it and want to join in on the thirsting for Lady Thorn, you can catch it on Bethesda’s Twitch channel.
The Imperial City Celebration is beginning on Thursday, September 3 at 10:00AM EDT until Tuesday, September 15 at 10:00AM EDT. Earn what bonus rewards you can in the The Elder Scrolls Online: Imperial City PvP zones, and in the two four-player dungeons: White Gold Tower and Imperial City Prison. There will be bonus drops from bosses, bonus loot, Event Tickets, and Legion Zero Strongboxes with style items, crafting materials, and more! There are also sales in the Crown Store and new items. If you want to take part in this event, you will need access to the Imperial City DLC with either your ESO Plus membership, or get it for free in the in-game Crown Store. Otherwise, the Imperial City Collector's Bundle will be 33% off starting from Thursday, September 10. For more information, check out the official article.

Great work from everyone all round this week. Some notable additions to the wiki include:

There have been no new technical updates or staff blog posts.
That concludes this update. We're heading in to a new month in 2020 as it slowly begins to wrap up but for now, have a wonderful week, and happy editing!
