Hello fellow Elder Scrolls lore enthusiasts, I am beginning this discussion in an attempt to further my intelligence regarding the subject. I am infatuated with the diversity of cultures and races of Mundus, the Mortal Plane. I especially want to attempt to learn more about the Lost Races of Tamriel (Ex. Ayleids, Dwarves, Pre-Devolved Falmer etc.) Let me begin by giving a rundown of my current knowledge of Man, Mer, and Beast Kind. Tell me if I missed any races or stated anything non-canon.

I'll begin with the 10 races that are offered during character creation at the beginning of each game: •Altmer •Bosmer •Dunmer •Orsimer •Imperial •Breton •Nord •Redguard •Khajit (Categorized as Betmer (Beast-Mer)) •Argonian (Categorized as Betmer (Beast-Mer))

Next, I'll touch on the other races of Mer, both lost or living: •Ayleid •Aldmer (Precursors of Elven-Kind. Correct me if I'm wrong?) •Chimer (Precursors of Dunmer) •Pre-Devolved Falmer (Snow Elves) •Modern Falmer •Dwemer (Dwarves) •Maormer (Sea Elves, from Pyandonea) •___mer (Left-Handed Elves, the elves that inhabited Yokuda)

The following are races that I have theorized to be beast Mer, or somewhat related to Mer due to their elven characteristics, such as pointed ears.) •Giants (Skyrim) •Trolls (Oblivion, Skyrim) •Goblins (Oblivion) •Rieklings (Skyrim, Dragonborn DLC) •Nymphs (Arena)

The following are races that are from other continents: •Atmorans (Precursors to Nords, from Atmora, North of Tamriel.) •Akaviri (Precursor to Imperials, from Akavir) •Sload (Thras) •Tsaesci (Akavir) •Kamal ^ •Tang Mo ^ •Ka' Po' Ton' ^

This last collection regards various miscellaneous races: •Imga (Valenwood) •Nedes (Descendants of Ehlnofey, the moralized Aedra.) •Ehlnofey (Mortalized Aedra, precursor to Man and Mer.) •Lilmothit (Vulpine Beast Race, described as fox-like) •Kothringi (Tribal group of men from Black Marsh)
