If you had to live in Tamriel for real, and got to choose where, what would you choose?.

I'd live with the Psijic Order in the Ceporah Tower of Summerset Isle. Yeah.

But what would you expect from an Arch-Mage?

High Rock is the closest, geographically, to where I live.

Valenwood,

Just because living in trees and being a barbaric Wood Elf sounds like a riot

Elsweyr

Khajiit are awesome.

I'd go with Valenwood, as the place seems pretty cool.

Skyrim.

If I had to live in Tamriel, of course I'd choose a place with lots of snow, mead and big axes.

I've always thought Summerset Isle sounds lovely. I look forward to the future Elder Scrolls game set there...

Cyrodil seems to be a good place to just settle down at and take everything in.

Morrowind for sure, i just love the atmosphere of the province; also the fact that that you can have slaves is cool.

I'd become a Lord of an estate somewhere and have my own personal merc company work for me, my trade would be for trading ebony from my many ebony mines to the empire and other factions. Oh and i would have an annual vampire hunting festival.

Hammerfel is mine. Just like home.

If I had to survive with my own personal abilities, I would pick Cyrodiil. A very temperate climate, with nooks and crannies to settle down in. Much more similar to the real world. However, if I had the same skills and abilities as my ES game characters, I would love to live in Vvardenfell. I've never been much of a city person.

Well, if I also got to be the native race to that region, then I would go to Black Marsh.

Skyrim, the mountain air would be good for me, stupid car fumes.
And besides, I really enjoy the whole Nord culture in TES.

Cyrodiil. Because I'm bland like that.

Summerset Isles or Valenwood. Both seem magical to me.

I wouldn't want to live on Nirn. Not because of the hostile creatures and monsters, the fact that nine out of ten citizens are outlaws. No it is because of the diseases, my immune system wouldn't be able to survive any of the things the average man or mer in Tamriel breathes in everyday. Oh right, I would also go blind from oxygen poisoning (if they even have Oxygen mind you) before shortly after collapsing dead as my internal organs fail. Why? Giant Spiders exist. The reason we don't see insects as big as us is because modern oxygen is much thinner than what it used to be. The insects can't be bigger than there trachea, which has to be big enough to move oxygen into its body. The trachea in fact grows quicker than the rest of the insect as you increase the scale due to our thin oxygen. The reason a giant insect exists is that the oxygen is thicker, meaning it has to move less in at a time. Thicker oxygen is poisonous to humans. Therefore I would need to wear a Space Suit to walk on the surface of Nirn. Not very convenient for everyday living.

Yes I did just take all the fun out of this by bringing in science.

Ignoring that, I would probably live in High Rock or Cyrodiil, two of the least interesting (and therefore safest) provinces.

Summerset Isles, a lot of beaches, towers and magic. I always pictured it like anvil, but big stone walls, roads, teleporters everywhere, and arcane torches for street lights.

I chose Cryidill, because if Nirn were REAL, Cryidill is the most likely to have internet. (The fact that I am from Miami and love the city may also have influenced my decision.)

Cyrodiil, plenty of land to make a settlement!

Probably the Summerset Isles (maybe Alinor, Lillandril or Firsthold), it seems to be a nice environment (with nice beaches), but I'm not to sure about the recent (not sure now that were into the 4th Era) unrest in the region we seem to hear about.

High rock or Cyrodiil

Skyrim. For some reason, Skyrim just appeals to me. The Snow, the Mountains, the Forests... it feels Dunmer to me.
