if dwarves are the small ppl like in other games/movies then dwemer. If not then maybe the fox ppl

No, they are not small. It was giants that gave them the dwarves nickname. Hmm, I wonder if it was the giants in Skyrim?

belived to be extinct, just like the dwemer are belived to be extinct (which they were not in morrowind, possible not in oblivion, no idea in skyrim)

they could always be hiding out somewhere (falmer were thought to have died out but they are in skyrim, apperently)

I think there was some infor i Morrowind that showed that it was impossible. That the Dwemer did not exist in the real world or the known Oblivion worlds. The onhly reason the guy in Morrowind survived was because he was not in this reality at the time.
Anyway, Morrowind shows that they probobly all turned to ashes, all at the same time. But who knows. I do hope we get more info on what happened.
When I first saw the Skyrim Teaser I thought they where talking about the Dwemer (untill I saw the dragon). Who knows, maybe they will return one day as a storyline in some way?Maybe Bethesda have been planing something all along?

i will say what i said to the other guy

if there is a single living dwemer left in existance then his race is not extinct, therefore they were not extinct in morrowind (i dont know about oblivion, he could have died, in skyrim he will be long dead)

i never exect dwemer to make a return :happy: (i was talking about the lilmothiit beast race makeing a return)

I was talking about them hiding being impossible. I agree with you, if one survives then they are not extinct.

One thing I am wondering about: Dwemer ghosts. Why are they still in Tamriel? If the Dwemer where all transported, shouldn't they also have been gone? And if the Dwemer where all destroyed, should really their ghosts still exist?

As for lilmothiit, who knows? I don't se how they would hide from the Argonians but maybe... But then again, I expected to se Wild Elves in Cyrodill (who only haver been lost for 1000 years) so I unsure if Bethesda will revive dead races.

Imga
Because I don't buy that race that devotes their lives in serving Altmers, would not follow their masters to other provinces and serve them there
Most of noble Altmer families should have several Imga servants/bodyguards

I wouldn't add any. Ten is perfectly fine and symmetrical. If I had to though, the Imga because they're the most different from the races we already have. And there would actually be a reason for them to be in Tamriel unlike the creatures from Akavir.

i would assume at least one dwemer city was killed the old fashiond way (i remember readng about a massacure of dwemer in the lore) so maybe thats where their ghosts come from?

and the lilmothiit could dissapear (so to speak) from the sight of any other race, black marsh is their home (they might have been their before argonians, but not the hist), they know it better than any other i would assume. maybe argonians know they exist but just dont want to give out the information (in the infernal city [i dont have the book but i noticed a quote in the imperial library] an argonian led the main character up a rock that was belived to be impossible to climb (belived to be by races excluding the argonians) yet had a cave that went up it like a spiral stair case)

I picked Falmer... obviously. Not that I wouldn't love to see those other races, but most wouldn't make much sense in Skyrim.

I would LOVE if they would finally do an Akavir game. It could have that otherworldly feel to it like Morrowind had. I doubt they will ever do it though as humans would be the rarity. They would have to be pretty ambitious to do it right... but it would make a truly awesome setting for a game.

I gotta say the Tsaesci because that means an Akaveri invasion and that would be pretty cool.

I think the Lilmothiit are way to similar to Khajiit. Another furry vaguely feline race? Seriously? Anyways of the choices the most lore friendly and practical(Sload are not practical) are the Falmer, Maormer, Imga, and Tsaeci. And of those the most Lore friendly are probably either the Imga or the Maormer.

The Falmer cannot have much of a population and adding them as a race would be cool but there really would not be that many of them. The Tsaeci were present on Tamriel and ruled the Empire for a decent amount of the 2nd century. However how many of them survived and still exist in Tamriel in the current era? I'd say very few or none. At least none that are living here just because they have nowhere else to go.

The Maormer are very interesting and have a fairly stable independent nation in Pyondonea. The Imga are bootlicking wannabe Mer beastfolk who shave their bodies of hair to appear more like the Altmer. They cannot be very intelligent or strong willed. I am gonna go with the Maormer.

However If I could choose a race that would show up and just appear I would choose the Kothringi. Silvery skinned human tribals from Black Marsh that were supposedly wiped out by the Thrassian Plague? Sounds really intriguing to me. A nomadic but intelligent group would be great to add to the mix of races that are available. And given where they are from I don't think it unreasonable to think they might be kind of like a mix of Beastfolk and Man from the past. Similar in descent to the Bretons. Just replace Mer with beast. THAT is quite the lore leap though.

The Imga would make a great deal of sense if Elder Scrolls # took place in Valenwood.

They did. Although some Ex Ashlanders are called Chimer, although it means somthing different. Basically OP didnt know much about ES lore.

Hey what's your problem? What the hell do you mean I don't know anything about lore?! I put them in because I felt that somone would complain that they wanted Velothi from Morrowind so I put it in. No reason to attack me like that you ass!

If you knew the lore, you wouldnt have put half those races in the list. I mean Nedes, and Chimer, really? I wasn't attacking you, I was making a statement, that seems to be true going by what you included on the list.

I'd like to see more relevant races like the Imgar.

If they are going to put in Akaviri races they should just release a game set there.


Oh, and the Nedes are like the Ayleids, they have evolved into the seperate races of man.

Look I understand that the five Akaviri races can't realistically come to Tamriel unless the Ka Po Tun defeat the Tsaesci and then invade Tamriel like they were planning to do. Sloads have bad relations with Cyrodil, due to the Thrassian plague, so they will likely not come either. Chimer are simply Velothi and have no real difference so chances are they won't be added. The Nedes have simply become the races of men, the closest related being the nords. The lilmothiit are thought to be extinct and only really inhabit the Black Marsh so it wouldn't be reasonable to have large populations of them. The Kothringi were thought to be wiped out from the Thrassian Plague so they probably wouldn't be a race either. The Ayleids empire is now shattered but small tribes of them apparantly still remain, but not enough for an entire playable race. And aldmer have simply become the rest of the races. BUT I'm not going to remove all of those just for you. This poll is just for fun and as you can see many people voted for races that absolutely make no sense, but they simply did it out of preference. You have no need to come here and ruin a perfectly good conversation with your self righteous crap.

This whole post basically points out how flawed this list is in the first place. My first comment still stands, someone that knew the lore, wouldnt have had half of those races on the list. Unless this was a prequel title in the series. I didnt know being correct, and knowing the lore was self righteousness, but whatever. :rolleyes:

No, none, no more races, it just wouldn't work unless the game was set in Akavir or Pyandonea or any of the other places on Nirn that aren't Tamriel, which would just be weird and meh.

No, what I'm saying is that --->REGARDLESS<--- of the lore, if you could add a race which would it be. And no it's not knowing the lore that made you self righteous, it was directly attacking me and claiming that I didn't know the lore and you did that made you self righteous. Plenty of people said they wouldn't pick this race or that race becuase it was extinct. They didn't however insult me. :confused:
