What race would you want to play? : The Elder Scrolls Series Discussion

» Thu Jul 15, 2010 11:14 am

Post your favourite playable race already in TES or a non playable race in the lore of TES that you would like in TES5

My favourite would be the Sload. They would be fun to play as because of they're anatomical traits as a slug man.

I would want to play as a Kamal because, hey who wouldn't want to be a giant Akaviri snow demon the can instill fear across an entire continent?

When TES V comes out I'll do what I did my first times through TES III and TES IV: play a Breton Warrior. Breton Warriors are my all-time favorite class and race combo.

I tend to play as a Nord warrior who doesn't think about much beyond hack and slash. Sometimes wen I play my magic based characters it's usually a High Elf, so I'll probably use one of the two...unless Bethesda comes up with something different.

I'll play as an Imperial first (cos, you know, I am one) just to get a feel for the game. My 'perfect' characters tend to be Dunmer or Redguards, but I can't embark on that until I know the game pretty solidly.

Sloads would be fun to play as because they're big slugs but also they're very good at magic, and if introduced to the game would have good magical traits and skills. Plus it would be funny to see them in armor. Look at concept art. http://screenshots.filesnetwork.com/95/others/sload.jpg

There are a few non-playable races that I'd like to see, but as long as they don't do something stupid like cut out the Khajiit I'm good. I would (somewhat begrudgingly...) even play as an Ohmes or Ohmes-raht if I had to.

As in Daggerfall, Morrowind, and Oblivion. My first character will be a Dunmer and his class will be a stealth/magic hybrid.

» Wed Jul 14, 2010 11:11 pm

I want to be a deadra or a dremora.

» Thu Jul 15, 2010 12:33 pm

My first character would be one of two characters that exist in Oblivion for me at the moment, and will also carry over to Morrowind when I start playing again.

Helena Aurelie, my Breton Healer and Varesa Ienith, my Dunmer Nightblade. Probably followed by a Nord Hunter, then a Dunmer pure Mage.

Not that I overthink, or anything.

Edit: However I'd like to play as a Falmer or a Maormer.

I'm Argonian all the way. If I had to pick a non-player race to play as though, it would be Daedroth. Its fun to be a huge crocodile dude.

Despite Khajiit being my favourite race, I find them extremely difficult to play... hmmm.
My first ES:V character will most likely be Ub3r, so that'd mean making a Dunmer.

I want to be a deadra or a dremora.

As much as i'd love that I doubt we'll ever be so lucky but I'll start with an imperial and if they look cool then I'll do an orc.

It would be cool if they add all the 17 types of Khajiit (except the ones who cannot speak of course... "Help me, my son is in danger!" "ME NO TALK!" lol)

» Thu Jul 15, 2010 9:21 am

If it was available I'd go for Tsaesci, always thought they sounded cool

If not I'll go with a Khajiit

» Thu Jul 15, 2010 1:27 am

As in Morrowind and Oblivion i will go Redguard.

» Thu Jul 15, 2010 10:03 am

High elf or dunmer.

» Thu Jul 15, 2010 7:31 am

Probably just a Khajiit, given that Khajiiti are the only cool race.

Maybe a Senche tiger. Rip a man's head off with one swipe.

I wanna be a Hist!!!

......

:rofl:

Arena-Oblivion, I've always started as a Dunmer. I think may break the mold, as I've recently fallen in love with the Nords. I mean, if speculation is correct, Skyrim is the perfect time for it, anyway. ^_^

Svorj, the Nordic Warrior. Love 'im.

» Wed Jul 14, 2010 11:04 pm

Orcs. Always bet on orcs.

» Thu Jul 15, 2010 9:27 am

I always like to play as Bretons and a mixture of stealth and magic for my class.

» Thu Jul 15, 2010 12:24 pm

I would very much like to try my hand at a Tsaeci character.

So long as they weren't shoe-horned in. Lets say, "Akavir invades and establishes permenant colonies in Tamriel".

» Thu Jul 15, 2010 1:36 pm

My first character in a new TES game will forever and for always be a sneaky Wood Elf archer female by the name of Calacirya.

After that, I'd want to try out a Kamal - and at least see the rest of the Akaviri races, especially Sloads and the Tsaesci, even though I wouldn't want to play them.
