Harold Burned-Mane wrote: That doesn't mean anything. Francois Beaufort has a Breton name but is an Imperial. Lucian Lachance also has a Breton name and is an Imperial. The fact that the Lariats are said to be related to Hjalti and his brother and the fact that he was from High Rock points to him being a Breton. It is extremely likely that Hjalti was a Breton/Nord half-breed, with a Nord father and a Breton mother. That's not exactly how TES universe works. The reason there are no half-breeds known is because the child always inherits the race of its mother. So if Hjalti had a Nord father and Breton mother, that would make him a pure Breton, not half and half. Although, I believe it's safe to say that Hjalti was either Nord or Breton, the real question is which one was he?
