Yeah, from a lore standpoint TES actually has the coolest elves ever.
Altmer: Purity-obsessed haughty magicians who in ages past murdered most of their own children for being "impure."
Bosmer: Carnivores and cannibals who would kill a man before they would trim branches from a tree.
Dunmer: hardcoe xenophobes, religious fanatics, and traditionalists. Plus, they live above ground, sound like they gargle gravel every day ([censored] you Oblivion Dunmeri), and don't have any irritating dual-wielding rangers in their race.
Maormer: The Fremen from Dune, but with sea serpents instead of sandworms.
Orsimer: ORCS!
Dwemer: "Dwarves;" agnostic bearded artificers who use bizarre steam technology interwoven with magic and divine metaphysics, who in an attempted apotheosis mysteriously disappeared.
