If you were to create a race

If you could create a playable race what would it be? i can hardly think of a new complete race from scratch tbh

maybe because TES has covered them all pretty much, but they did invent the Argonian's and Kajiit.

Ah, I would create the Ka Po'Tun. In my eyes of how they look, of course.

I\"d like a kind of Draconian race (dragon men) like the ones in Dragonlance, they were pretty badass.

Tauren guys, they would be like klingons and kill everybody

Knolls, I'd love to make an TES version of them.
Make them nomadic and completely tribal in nature (No civilization here, it's might and magic for their society). Almost like goblins in TES, but more intelligent and tribe oriented.

Or maybe a race with mixed Daedra blood...

Maybe something that can fly, like angels. Otherwise Dwarfs, Satyrs/Fauns, or centaurs. Centaurs are simply awesome. They've got the speed of a horse, and because of Age of Mythology I think they should be good at marksmanship.

Dwemer aside, I find dwarves relatively boring unless given a well developed culture.
Satyrs could be good, but flying or galloping races would likely not make it, for obvious reasons.
That's not to say you couldn't have those races, just that their extra appendages would be limited to racial powers

Maybe Dryads. Or Nymphs. Fauns. That kind of enchanted forest kind of thing.
Or Anthropomorphic Wolves, that would be cool.

Drell and Turians from Mass Effect

As TES covered most common fantasy races I would just create a playable one of the ones that are currently not used:

The Sload (http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Sload), a race that can't even move and only teleport and levitate around, marvelous!

Samaelthedestroyer · Post by **Samaelthedestroyer** » Tue Jul 19, 2011 7:34 pm

now that i think about it, in any fantasy game where dwarves are a playable race i always play as them. so i would go with dwarves.

If I could bring in another TES lore race, I'd bring a slightly moddified version of the Chimer in. I say slightly moddified, because I'd still keep Dunmer, so therefore the lore explanation to the sudden appearance of a long lost race would either be that some found a way to lift the curse, or some escaped the curse (probably by being different from the rest of the Chimer in a slight way).

Other than a lore race, I'd probably bring in an Elven race, although it'd probably be a silly idea

something like the wraiths from stargate atlantis

Sea Elves. I know that they exist already, but they would be much cooler if they had fins and scale-like skin that wasn't like a camouflage, oh and yeah they can transform into sharks :3

i would be boring and choose dwemer, instead of magic you would have technology skills, instead of destruction you could make dart throwers and other guns. A suit of dwemer armour would come alive in your posession, upgrades throughout your career would enhance it in a similar way that enchantments do with other armours.
The character would be from a community of Dwemer stranded somehow from the rest of the race and only recently returned to the world, so would also be unaware of the Dwemers disappearance; but you would be able to use surviving dwemer technology and archives, and a main quest would involve you unravelling the fate of your race

GhostOfTheNavigator · Post by **GhostOfTheNavigator** » Wed Jul 27, 2011 7:20 pm

i would create a race that consist in the combination of a human with an eagle that would have head, legs (including the claws) and wings of an eagle and arms and torso of the humans.
haven´t figured out the name yet but i dont want to call them just eagle-kin or something like it
sugestions are welcome if you want to try anyway

Arzgonzianz · Post by **Arzgonzianz** » Mon Aug 01, 2011 10:07 pm

I always thought a Bird/Raptor race would pwn... I imagine them being quite agile... And if they could feed on Horkers and Slaughterfish!!!

As for they're name............. I'll have to get back to you on that!

[Edit] A race evolving from Cliff Racers??? I love those lil guys...

Chaos the N'wah · Post by **Chaos the N'wah** » Tue Aug 02, 2011 1:10 am

Although not ideal for a playable race, I'd like to see more on the Dreugh....

Arzgonzianz · Post by **Arzgonzianz** » Tue Aug 02, 2011 1:17 am

Another Non-playable race that would be interesting would be the Imga!!!!!

http://www.uesp.net/wiki/Lore:Imga

They would pwn.

Chaos the N'wah · Post by **Chaos the N'wah** » Tue Aug 02, 2011 3:05 am

I'd probably go out of my way to kill every Imga I happened upon....and I tend to play chivalrous characters...

Arzgonzianz · Post by **Arzgonzianz** » Tue Aug 02, 2011 3:30 am

I would go out of my way to persuade each one into liking me...

Together, we will make an elite clan of Imgas and rule all of Valenwood! Mwahahahahahahahaaa!!!!!!

I would makes a human race called Isleish from Isleland from Ireland and Scotland like in the time of Bravehart They would have last names like Finnegan Murphy Mckillan so on with the Mc's and first names like William Sean Connor Casey and they would be medium sized people with generally green or blue eyes fair skin brown red blonde hair and they would come from a land with rolling hills of green and live in huts with clans and would be good at hand to hand swords stealth.

golan2072 · Post by **golan2072** » Sun Aug 21, 2011 11:01 am

I'd create a variant of the Argonians based on Tokay Geckos, with wall-climbing abilities instead of water-breathing or swimming. Oh, and with grey-blue skin spotted with bright orange-red spots and a guttural voice.
