That sounds too much Tamrielic (I was going to say nerdy but I love nerds). I would say that I am an half-elf.

You should take the quiz that's linked in the original post. That's what the thread is about. ;)

Breton :') I mean, I am creative, but I'm not too sure about the 'incredibly willful and intelligent' bit. Not exactly a rocket scientist tbh.

I got Altmer though I'd like to think I'd be more inclined towards Bretons.

Though "tall...superior...knowledgeable...passion for learning" all sound familiar :lol:

Khajiit if I pick the answers where I think they lead :p
Nord if I pick the answers without manipulating

Kind of interesting result, as I prefer to play a Khajiit in ES games.. and I'm from northern part of Europe :)

It seems that I'm a mix of Altmer and Imperial, as I had more than one answer for most of the questions. I like Altmer better though, so that's what I'll go as from now on.

I got Breton like I figured.

I generally detest quizzes like this but this one was actually pretty well done. If only you could tick multiple answers or each question though. My world view is more complicated than just a single sentence.

Good Idea Union, I'll go underwater and do the same.

After Some Time.....

Spoiler:
I got Dunmer, a perfect match of sword, spells and stealth. SATISFIED!

Speaking of Imperials, I have always been outraged that they dropped the Speechcraft buff that the race has had since Morrowind :(

Dunmer, while not my favorite race it does fit my everyday personality, but then the reason I love Khajiit is because it is a chance to be something I'm not...the love of cats helps too

I took this quiz once before and got Orc, which I thought was fair enough, but I took it again just now and got Dunmer, which I thought was very interesting. I've never been quite able to suss out the Dunmer; they've always seemed very strange to me. Then again, most people in general seem very strange to me, which I guess is why I've always identified so strongly with Argonians. It always annoys me slightly when I don't get Argonian on quizzes like this, but maybe there's a reason for that.

But I'm kind of intrigued by both of my results, so I'm very happy with what I got. Plus if this were real I'd be able to throw some sick fireballs, and I just can't complain.

Hmm... I guess personality wise they're pretty similar, being 3 of the more stoic races, tend towards strong family/community settings, and grim/dry senses of humor
Not that it has much bearing on personalities, but they also are (I think?) the only 3 playable races that do not worship any of the Divines in their cultures

Huh. I think you may be right. The Dunmer worship the Tribunal (and Daedra), the Orsimer worship Malacath, and the Argonians don't really have a religion (up for debate, I know). I never even realized that before.

I do tend toward the strong family/community thing (despite great efforts in my teen years) and have a somewhat grim outlook on life that I try not to bring to the surface too much, so your analysis is otherwise correct. I think the thing that tipped it in favor of the Orcs last time I took the quiz was that I made a big deal about the importance of having a code of honor, which is something I strive toward in real life.

EDIT. I can't believe I didn't notice this before, but I love how the sample picture of the Dunmer has him all serious-looking with the red eyes and everything, but he's decked out in a cheerful shade of purple. This amuses me greatly.

Dunmer, as expected. Save for the whole slavery thing, I really do enjoy me some Velothi folk and their ways. Cool quiz man.

I got Orc. Intriguing. I personally favor Imperials and Dunmers.

I got Orc but I messed up one question so I did it again and got Nord woot! Nords and Dunmer are my faves (ironically)

Khajiit is the patricians choice

I got Bosmer, which didn't surprise me.

I don't think I've ever played TES as a Bosmer-- mainly because none of the ES games have taken place in Valenwood, and I almost always play as whatever race is native to the game's setting since that makes the most sense to me given the game's storyline; but also because I'd rather play as a character who's different than my real-life persona.

I got Bosmer, which surprises me a little. I normally play as a Nord roleplaying him as a Nord/Breton hybrid; spellsword is my go to class or playstyle. So, this is an interesting result, though it makes sense. I do have an affinity for nature and animals. Though, I'm not much into archery or rogue classes, so they've never been a real contender and I typically like the bigger races as I am above average in height and build. However, a Bosmer spellsword could be an interesting and fresh perspective.

The Dunmer hail from Morrowind, and are known for their isolationist views and xenophobia. You are very intelligent, yet reserved to most people. You have a strong loyalty to your family and your own kind. Other people may view you badly, but you hold true to your family values and your beliefs.

...Interesting.
