Don't know about in game - but according to history in normal earthland the nords are quite tall. I've seen a skeleton for one in a museum in ireland, it's like 7ft. Apparently an average was about 6.2ft - and that was HUGE for medieval times. It's equivilant to modern standards is about 7ft. So they should really have some size on them. According to tolkien, orc are always smaller than men - but Uruk Hai are massive. What I want is Uruk Hai style orc in this game, about 6.5ft - very powerful.

Ive also been wondering about that, like do the nords just have a taller preset, and can all raises be as big as the nords if you set the settings of height and mass to max, like a Breton be as tall as the tallest nord, and an argonian as buff? Im excited, I cant remember what the case was in Oblivion, I think you couldnt.
