In a recent display of creativity, dedicated players of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion Remastered have successfully recreated the beloved Darth Kermit meme. This achievement highlights the impressive capabilities of the game’s character creation system.
The customization options available have allowed users to design characters ranging from pop icons like Taylor Swift to quirky figures such as Nigel Thornberry. Oblivion has long been celebrated for its intricate character creator, often regarded as one of the best in Bethesda’s lineup.
The game’s remaster, developed by studio Virtuos, retained the original character design system while upgrading its visuals to meet modern standards. This combination ensures players have access to a robust set of customization tools while enjoying improved graphics.
Two Reddit users, Flannel_Devil and Imaginary_Priority_1, exemplified this creative freedom by recreating the Darth Kermit meme, sometimes referred to as “Sith Kermit.” Flannel_Devil’s version gained significant attention, receiving nearly 10,000 upvotes on the r/Oblivion subreddit in late April 2025.
Following this, Imaginary_Priority_1 shared their own interpretation, showcasing a similar artistic vision. Both players approached the task by selecting the Argonian race, adjusting its skin tones to match Kermit the Frog’s hue, and outfitting the character in the Black Hand Robe—a reward for completing the Dark Brotherhood questline.
This questline remains a fan favorite, adding nostalgia to the creative process. This trend of inventive character designs has continued to flourish since the remaster’s launch on April 22.
Players have crafted not only popular characters but also horrifying monsters, demonstrating the flexibility and appeal of Oblivion Remastered’s character creator. As this vibrant community continues to explore its options, it may influence the design of character customization in The Elder Scrolls 6, currently in development by Bethesda.
