you know an armor style similar to the elites armor in halo would work but not as freakish or alien

I would like the Argonians to be really fast in the water and have an animation like a Crocodile/Iguana swimming, side to side and very flexible like a snake.

Ugh, I'll look around the threads to find you the [NUMMIT] concept picture. Believe it came from a video that someone screenshotted.

EDIT: http://i801.photobucket.com/albums/yy297/b_harrison/misc/artofskyrim_010_argoniandragon.jpg It's the picture to the far left.

Thank you :)
I also managed to find a more zoomed version of the art

Question is, "Is that a pole arm in the left hand of the probable Argonian?".

If there was an option to reduce the size (or completely remove) their tails and if they were less colorfull,I'd actually play Argonians.


I'm sorry but that to me would totally destroy Argonians. Would just make them men/mer with scales. Which is basically an old man.

Well considering the Infernal City is cannon and one of the main protagonists is an Argonian named Mere-Glim, i think it gives a general feel to how the beast race will play. At least i hope so. Half the book is set in Black Marsh and it describes the race in detail and their relationship with the Hist Tree. Claws are talked about several times.

I agree on the tail animation, but I actually like the way they were in Oblivion, it kind of introduced me to the whole idea of playing as an Argonian. When it comes to other stuff than simply animations, I'd like the argonians to actually see better in the water and swim something like 10 or 20 % faster than the other races, make them really feel welcome in the water. Other races are after all superior to Argonians, bretons for example have 50% magic resistance, which is crazy, the others have the same kind of boosts, but the Argonians are left with poison immune and water breathing, neither of them work in any way in places where enemies don't use poison and there is not water nearby.

Ok,well an Argonian on that pic actually looks ok. I can go with that.

Question is, "Is that a pole arm in the left hand of the probable Argonian?".


For the sake of humanity and all of us on the TES forums,let's not to try and answer that question (for the gazillionth time),pretty please!? No!? Ok,thaaaanks... :thumbsup:

Well I said if there was an option. So there, if it was optional we both could create an Argonian to our liking.

I like the morrowind-style Argonians (with claws in feets and hands)
And i dont like the frog-style Argonians of Oblivion. Are too human and not beast.
I prefer the head of Argonians of Morrowind and if they make claws in their hands, they have to do a special H2H for beast races.

I think Argonians are more assasins like so they have to improve their habilities

Sorry for my bad english

As long as people understand what you're trying to say,your English is ok.

I agree on the H2H bonus for beast races,btw. It would be neat and an extra reason for a player to play a beast race.

Argonians/khajiits should be able to sprint much fast than humans cos of their springy beast legs.

Hows this for an Argonian? http://biano3d.wordpress.com/slithe-thundercats/

(no... seriously: http://i179.photobucket.com/albums/w302/biano3d_2007/ZBRUSHA_MODEL_02.jpg)

*Also how about active chameleon ability as a racial trait?

For me? No, that cant be an Argonian.
And chamaleon ability would be good.

I think Argonians could be vastly improved by adding a stab wound or two.

Seriously though, i agree, the beast races really do need to look and feel unique. While my favourite race is Dunmer by far, I've always liked Khajiit and to a lesser extent Argonians.
