If we look at the Orsimer page, that's exactly what it has when it's stated that they are a race of Elf. It isn't quite as simple as that. For one, The True Nature of Orcs clearly states they're Mer. In the "Discerning the Transmundane" quest in Skyrim, one requires their blood to create a mixture that closely resembles the blood of Dwemer. Septimus Signus clearly states the mixture requires the blood of every Mer race. I also don't exactly get the logic of "Because they were corrupted, they're beastfolk." Does that mean Dunmer are no longer Mer because they were transformed? Please elaborate.
