It's a fantasy game. I think when they gave Argonian women mammery glands, we can forget how biology works.

So if someone wants to roleplay a khaJit boinking an argonian, do it.

Because I don't know about an Argonian getting freaky with an Imperial. Not only does it seem morally wrong, but genetically wrong. A reptile and a mammal? Really? It's Biology 101, man.
Have to agree with Meat on this one. Imagine how limiting it would be if you could only play human characters? (…I’m pretty sure Argonians do not hook up with Nords) There will probably be some kind of event that causes you to be the Dragon Born

As for Bretons, the Nedic and Altmeri genus must be fairly similar, or we could leave science out of the entire fantasy affair couldn't we :wink: .
The Aldmer and Nedes are both Ehlnofey in ancestry, so they should still be able to have offspring, Argonians on the other hand are descendants of the hist (speculated) and we have no idea about their biology. Khajiit are also murky water, some of their creation stories have them as off-branches of elves (or vice versa); so it's questionable there.
