Favorite Species.

Post by Something Witty »

So whats your favorite species in the Elder Scrolls franchise?

For me, I suppose Argonians or Dunmer. Oblivion argonians, I know there are slight variations between games but I think the ones in Oblivion are cool. What about you guys?

*EDIT* Hey sorry guys, made a mistake I put "Dwemer" n place of "Dunmer. I always get the two confused. But I cant edit the poll so just pretend that Dwemer means Dark Elf instead of Dwarf.

Khajiit, no doubt.
I used to play Oblivion, then I took an arrow in the knee.

The obvious choise is of course the migty dark elves. I mean come on guys a balance of destruction magic, firm light infantry armed with a blade, and marksmen? Best of all three worlds, magic/stealth/combat. What other race can say their good at all three?

To me, Imperials and Argonians are the best. I haven't tried Kahjits though. Maybe I should try one some day.

Surely it should be 'race' rather than 'species'? Anyway, my favourites are the pedants... I mean the Argonians. Possibly the Bretons, because my Breton mage/archer/acrobat/sprinter/alchemist lowlife-turned-dogooder is my favourite character I've ever played in an Elder Scrolls game.

I chose the Orcs. The are amazing blunt weilding warriors in heavy armor, and they pretty much start out capable of repairing magical weapons, which helps a lot. May not have a lot of personality, but the sheer Strength and Endurance more than make up for that.

It eventually got nice in Birmingham today after a foggy and cold morning, I've been informed it was nice in Suffolk too. Much more disconcerting was the fact that most of Birmingham city centre was filled with armed police this morning...

God knows, it seemed to be centred round the law courts though so something big must have been going down there.
