As much as I love the race.

The Nords.

Relax, at least you can vent out your anti-Nord frustration here without it being off topic or criticized as much

You just want to see a certain user lose his [censored], don't you?

The barbaric and violent nature is something I actually like about Nords.

I wouldn't say they are cruel though...they're righteous in my opinion.

Violent and cruel are not synonyms... so I don't feel like I can vote accurately.

Wasn't this done already? I bet this turns into another civil war thread.

Should I just like, copy and paste an accumulation of everything I've posted in the last hour? :violin:

I'm glad I'm at least entertaining. :evil:

That was intentional. The Dwemer were cruel yet I wouldn't say they are as violent as say the Tsaesci.

:teehee:

Whatever you wish sir.

I want to shed some light on other races especially the unplayable ones. The Akaviri races are quite violent and cruel. They even ravaged the hell out of the Nords you love to hate just so you know.

daleks, clearly

I'm going to say elves.

Because I can.

The dragons were the biggest calamity of their time. Rivaling and surpasing the Dwemer.

» Wed Jul 31, 2013 3:31 pm

I believe that the Nords never shook off the yoke that the Dragons left upon them.

Thus, they are who they are through them.

If we get a game in Akavir, I'll play as a Kamal. :devil:

Anyway, This 5,000 year old priest of yore is tired, so I'll just post this snippet from a previous thread.

Spoiler

Founding fore-fathers being honored for setting up an independent America despite slavery does not compare to nords venerating Ysgramor for PURGING EVIL ELVES.

It's not just "Ysgrmaor settled Skyrim and gave it to the nords!". No, it's more! They also venerate "AND PURGED THE ELVEN SCOURGE"

THE ELVEN SCOURGE. Not retribution for Night of Tears and giving them a chance at surrendering. No! It's purging the elven scourging!

Big difference there.

Thousands of years, yet I see Ysgramor in paradise for the blood-thirsty and ambitious; Because nords killing elves is fair game, while the falmer are suffering in such a state where their very souls have devolved. You have no idea how surprised I am to meet paragon Gelebor who has managed to stay faithful and level-headed. That's a true hero right there. He saw what his people has become yet he shows no hate and desire for revenge. That's amazing. But I thought falmer were evil elven scourge? What's up with that?

Yeah reap what you sow. That's exactly what the Thalmor are doing now. They're reaping what has been sowed. But of course, the response is the same. Poor nords.

I'm confident many of you know my stance on Ysgramor and the 500's genocide. I think that snippet should suffice. Must I say who I voted for the first section?

That said, for the second section I had to go with Ayleids. While the Dwemer were cruel... The Ayleids were cruel AND violent. They actively enslaved human races and then went even further and tortured them for the lolz.

My second choice is a tie between the Kamal, Tsaeci, and Dwemer.

Violent - Nords

Cruel - Ayleids
