Race

Something In thought would make a subtle, yet memorable addition to the races, would be to add little tics to each race, that show up whenever something happens. For example, let's say that when Khajiit are calm or are in specific emotional states, they purr, just like real cats. Or Argonians flick their tongues to get air, like real lizards. But Beast races adopting tics of real lizards and cats are one thing, what would you give to the races of elf and human?

There's literally a plethora of combinations, I honestly don't know what the child would end up as:

Men x Mer

Men x Beastfolk

Beastfolk x Mer

Detailed of all possible Combinations (there are lots):

Redguard x Imperial

Redguard x Breton

Redguard x Nord

Redguard x Argonian

Redguard x Khajiit

Redguard x Orc

Redguard x High elf

Redguard x Wood elf

Redguard x Dark elf

Imperial x Breton

Imperial x Nord

Imperial x Argonian

Imperial x Khajiit

Imperial x Orc

Imperial x High elf

Imperial x Wood elf

Imperial x Dark elf

Breton x Nord

Breton x Argonian

Breton x Khajiit

Breton x Orc

Breton x High elf

Breton x Wood elf

Breton x Dark elf

Nord x Argonian

Nord x Khajiit

Nord x Orc

Nord x High elf

Nord x Wood elf

Nord x Dark elf

Argonian x Khajiit

Argonian x Orc

Argonian x High elf

Argonian x Wood elf

Argonian x Dark eld

Khajiit x Orc

Khajiit x High elf

Khajiit x Wood elf

Khajiit x Dark elf

Orc x High elf

Orc x Wood elf

Orc x Dark elf

High elf x Wood elf

High elf x Dark elf

Wood elf x Dark elf

Am I missing any? And to why I'm doing this, I'm just worried if a hybrid elf/khajiit child is possible

What would you say the most interesting playable race is? Culturally, historically, etc. I'm very curious to see others opinions.

I make new characters a lot, but this time, you guys get to decide what my character is like and what class I play as and what I do and stuff like that. Tell me if you are in. I’ll post when I’m starting.

I believe that not only should we be able to choose the default 10 races of Tamriel for TES VI, but we should also choose a home-town and birthdate.

Home-Town could have some interesting dialogue options and extra cosmetics available, and even give players a boost in their skill.

You are a caster from Winterhold? You are more adept at magic than a typical Nord.

You are a Khajiit born on a certain day? You now are an Alfiq-raht Khajiit and are small which gets you speech points for "cuteness" and makes you a harder target to hit; but start with less carry weight and stamina.

Fun idea right?

I have 3 Elder Scrolls games:

Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (of which my character is a female Argonian)

Elder Scrolls: Blades

& Elder Scrolls Online (of which I have three characters, a female Khajitt & 2 female Argonians)

This is a quote by Hadvar in Helgen after your character in Skyrim was created. This shows that the remains of a person of a particular race will be buried in the home province of their race. My question is that is it possible for someone to be buried in a province that is not of their race?

Here’s an example. A Breton orphan(who will show up in Helgen later as the LDB) whose ancestry is unknown, found in the wilderness of Cyrodiil and adopted by an Imperial family. The Breton might wish to be buried in Cyrodiil instead of High Rock since he has very less or even no connection to High Rock. If the Breton’s remains have to be sent to High Rock, then the backstory of this character will be completely ruined.

Did Bethesda make this intentionally or is it overlooked?

So here's an idea for a potion, almost all the races have a once a day power, what if in TES VI if you had a blood extractor, as we see with septimus signus, we could use it as a potion ingredient with some other accompanying ingredients to activate this power? For example, if you extracted the blood of an orc and added it with an ingredient that fortifies attack and one that fortifies block, and now you have the berserk power for a limited amount of time. Of course this potion could not be bought in stores, the ingredients would be difficult to gather. But it may be interesting to have just in case

We already have cats.

We already have Lizards.

So then, what if there can be dog people? Not a werewolf-like, but a humanoid bipedal dog?

What is your favourite race in the Elder Scrolls from a lore perspective?

For me it's the Dark Elves. I find them fascinating, particularly how religion and status plays a role in their society. I find them almost Indian in that respect - but less about caste, and more about House.

What are the lifespans of the beast races ?especially The Khajiit and Argonion races.

What do you think the likelihood is that Bethesda will add in a new playable race for TES6?

If there was another elder scrolls spin-off game that only allows you to play three races.

1. What races would you like to play as? (doesn't have to be the main races)

2. Where would you like the game to take place and when in the time line would it take place?

3. Give a simple main quest outline.

4. What would you like to see as a special feature or mechanic?

Please no trolls.
