Depends on the character I come up with. But these are the races I would love to see added.

Elf Races:

Maomer:
The Maormer are known as Sea Elves or Tropical Elves. They reside on the island of Pyandonea, south of the continent of Tamriel. They have pale, almost chameleon-like skin and yellow eyes. It was originally believed that they had lived in the Altmer home of Summerset Isle and were exiled, but tapestries found in the Crystal Tower of Alinor reveal an enmity going back so far as to make that theory impossible.[1] Their leader is an immortal wizard named Orgnum Thras. The Maormer practice a snake-like magic which they use to tame sea-serpents.


Beast Races:

Igma:
The Imga, or Great Apes, are native beastfolk of Valenwood. They see the Altmeri as their lords and masters and as a portrait of an ideal, civilized society. Imga go to desperate measures to emulate the Altmeri: they wear capes, practice with the dueling sword, and attempt to speak with perfect enunciation and courtly manners despite their gravelly, baritone voices. Each Imga bears some kind of title, be it Baron, Duke, Earl, or the like, which they use when addressing the members of the Thalmor, however there are no land-owning Imga. More extreme Imga shave their bodies and powder their skin white to seem more like the Altmeri. The Imga feel that Men are beneath them as lesser beastfolk and find their smell exceedingly offensive: when Men are around, Imga hold corners of their capes to their noses.

How is that even possible? I mean, you haven't seen them. How can they be your favourite?

Yes i admit the Tsaesci does sound rather interesting but since we have so little to base our opinion on, since we know so little about them, i don't understand how they could be anyones favourite.

Imperial

Morrowind had redhair for males choosing the Imperial class. So I went with Imperial for that reason and stayed with Imperial for class in Oblivion.

Dunmer, because I am indecisive about using swords and bows. And they also look pretty cool.

dunno what it is about them, but blue colered elfs (dark elfs in this case) win every rpg/mmo poll and always end up the most played lol.

I usually play a Dunmer because of their resistance to fire. Yes the special ability to summon the ghost is not the greatest but.... Plus I normally play as a knight type character, normally using a mace or some other blunt weapon as my primary weapon.

This thread seams familiar…

I always play an Imperial for my “main” character, but some of my favs have also been Dunmer, Bosmer, and Nords.

Basically, I usually have a main “good” guy and a “bad” guy that will sort of do everything in the game that isnt contrary to their character, and then make a few more specialized characters with more limited goals.

Master of thieves, Fighters, etc.

I would have to go with the Bosmer. 1) fast and agile 2) they are short( i'm short; well not that short) 3) they're sneaky :ninja:

Khajiit given they look better in this game than they did in Oblivion.

Other than that I often play either as a Nord or a Dunmer.

Altmer always! They have the potential to be the most powerful battlemages ever! Super high magika to begin with and the weakness to magika is easily cancelled out further down the line when you get magik resistance armors and stuff.

I like High Elves a little more than Argonians only because I could change my High Elf color to make it look like an Ayleid and will do the same in Skyrim. I usually play for look of the race instead of their racials, because the racials are usually a non-issue with my play style.
