Redguard (Skyrim)

Redguards hail from the province of Hammerfell. They are a stocky, powerful race that are known to be extremely quick and hardy. Legend has it that Redguards are innately more proficient at weapons than any other race. They are excellent in all arts concerning blade and shield, and only darkelves have superior combat skills. They have descended from a long line of warriors and mystic seers.

Starting Spells
Todd Howard has also stated that "They also have different starting spells and each has its own passive abilities, like before"

This may make the starting spells more important than in the past games as it has been confirmed that the only ways to learn additional spells are to find spell tomes or to buy them from merchants. In other words, each spell in the game will be more valuable than in previous games because of the lack of custome spell creation.

Note: Not a complete list.

Note: The flame thrower spell (poor description?) shown in most Skyrim videos has been said in an article to be a starting spell for every race.
