My favourite race within the Elder Scrolls series is Dunmer, for their intellect, skill, and culture. The fact that they look awesome is just a plus to me, so for obvious reasons i will choose Ebonheart, even though I have the ability (due to preorder) to play any race in any alliance. Theres a certain aspect of the Ebonheart pact itself, possibly because they seem hostile toward each other and harbour resentment for there races. After palying Skyrim and seeing the hatred between the Dunmer, Nords and Argonians, I find it interesting to play in a group of people who hate each other so much. Although its interesting after playing Skyrim, Oblivion and Daggerfall and having a decent knowledge of the Elder Scrolls lore, that these three pacts never arose in any aspects of the games ive played.

Returning back to the race, people may believe i play this race because "Its the race I started off as" you could not be more wrong. I originally started as an Orc in Daggerfall, then an Argonian in Oblivion. Only after playing Skyrim multiple times, with many races did i decide that the Dunmer is now my favourite race within Elder Scrolls. My main Skyrim Character is a level 85 Dunmer, with level 100 everything (besides alchemy) and legendary status on some skills. Therefore the time and deciation, along with skills and classes i used in my Dunmer character have made me believe they are the best race. Especially amongst the other Mer.
