As someone who spent a fair amount of time in Morrowind freeing slaves I was pretty pleased to see a turn around like that.

actually, Morrowind kinda had it coming, with raids into Black Marsh and rampant slavery in Morrowind, I was waiting for Black Marsh to finally give Morrowind a swift kick in the balls, metaphorically speaking anyway

Oh, of course it did. Doesn't mean I need to like it though.

-follow Ancient, Sentient trees
-have an order of assassins trained from hatching.
-Shadowy Empire that most people don't know much about.

I prefer Argonians.

Though the khajiit are awesome. The cycle of birth they have, relating to the stars is brilliant.
maybe It's because most khajiit you meet are thieves and drug addicts.

Khajit. What can I say, I'm a cat person. And I love the "I do what I want" thing. Most of them seem like something between Chaotic Good and Chaotic Neutral, which always make for interesting characters and makes me wonder what exactly an entire province governed by people with this kind of attitude would be like (for some reason it makes me want to listen to some Bob Marley).

The poll results are going, about the direction I thought they would. Argonians just seem like they are ALWAYS up to something and NEVER completely on the level.

The Dark Elves really got screwed though. First half their province explodes and now the race that was previously just slaves to them owns their entire landmass. Although they did deserve it for being slave-driving racists for several hundred years, also the only sincerely nice Dark Elves are Karliah and Jiub (As far as I'm concerned).

I'd have to go with Khajiit, I also like Argonians and they are my two favorite races but my first character in every TES game I've played and they tend to be my main ones. I do like their claw attacks a lot as well and the new look is amazing, Bethesda did an amazing job on them... a lot better than I expected before Skyrim came out.

I do like the Argonians underwater breathing but you can just use an alteration spell for that, night eye is a lot tougher to obtain and the spell isn't very efficient compared to water breathing.
