1. I like Dread Zombies better, partly because (a) I like zombies and (B ) because I like Ayleid Ruins better than Ancestral Tombs.
2. Haven't seen Jyggalag/Sheogorath or Almalexia in-game, so Vivec wins by default.
3. I thought Mehrunes Dagon was much cooler-looking than Dagoth Ur. However, I had more sympathy for Dagoth Ur, so it's almost a tie.
4. Jauffre actually helped out in the Oblivion crisis. Cosades was merely a WoW-style quest-giving NPC. So my vote goes to Jauffre.
5. I haven't interacted with either Gaenor or Adoring Fan. But I think even if I had I'd vote for Glarthir anyway. I think he's actually one of the more intriguing NPCs in Oblivion.
6. I actually loved Oblivion Gates, but only up to a point (I thought they tended to get a little repetitious after awhile). Dwemer Ruins were less repetitious but also less interesting to me. A tie.
7. Haven't seen either sword in-game. Can't vote.
8. Haven't seen either NPC in-game. Can't vote.
9. I didn't do any Morag Tong quests in Morrowind. So Dark Brotherhood winds by default. But, based on what I know of both factions, I think I'd be voting for DB anyway.
10. I haven't been to Shivering Isles and have only spent about ten minutes in Mournhold. I detested Mournhold so that loses no matter what. I've seen Shivering Isles in the CS and it looks nice and some of the quests sound mildly interesting. But I love Solstheim. I think I would probably vote for Solstheim even if I had been to Shivering Isles (I'm not one of these players who think "exotic landscape = better").

1. Greater Bonewalker - Those things are scary.
2. Vivec - Kind of odd to put them against Jyggalag and Sheogorath, as they're nothing alike whatsoever.
3. Dagoth Ur - Dagon is great and all, but a mortal-turned-god that is also insane is hard to beat. Plus he had such a good voice.
4. Jauffre - I never felt that close to Caius. Jauffre felt like a friend.
5. Adoring Fan - I hate Gaenor, and Glarthir is annoying for tracking me down on every character. I can just tell the Adoring Fan to leave and he does, plus I've only become Grand Champion on like two characters.
6. Dwemer ruins - I consider myself a scholar of the Dwemer.
7. Goldbrand - Eltonbrand was some sports reference or something. Goldbrand is a Daedric artifact that was cursed and has all kinds of badass lore surrounding it.
8. Gray Fox - Gentleman Jim was boring by comparison.
9. Dark Brotherhood - Say what you will about them, they were interesting and only become moreso as I look deeper into their lore. The Morag Tong is pretty straight forward and a tad boring.
10. Shivering Isles - Solstheim wouldn't have been interesting if it wasn't for the Bloodmoon events. Mournhold is cool and all, but...a Daedric Prince's realm vs. some city in Morrowind? No-contest for me.
11. Necromancer - They just seem more interesting as a whole.

1. Dread Zombies, they make yucky noises when they chase you.

2. Jyggalag/Sheogorath. I hate the Tribunal.

3.Mehrunes Dagon. Daedra. Nuff said.(Note, I greatly dislike Mehrunes).

4. Caius Cosades. I hate monks.

5. Gaenor, cause he's a chump. But a funny chump.

6. Oblivion gates are cooler.

7. Goldbrand.

8. Gray Fox.

9. Crimson Scars...oh wait. Dark Brotherhood because they are entrail eating, Sithis worshiping dark culty fanatics. Morag Tong is the cliche wannabe honorable mess of murderes.

10. Solshteim....it got werewolves.

11. Necromancers. I like their robes. And I hate conjurers.

Zombies. The strength and endurance curse the bonewalkers would cast was insufferable.
Jyggalag and Sheogorath. Vivec and Almalexia had some interesting stuff in the books, but in the games they were boring tools.
I'm tried of having Dagon be the go-to lame bad guy, but Dagoth was quite the cliche.
Jauffre, even though he can't take care of a freaking necklace, at least put his life on the line in the battle. Caius was busy toking.
Glarthir was interesting, and there were so many ways to mess with him.
Dwemer ruins were better than Oblivion gates.
I never looked up how to get the Eltonbrand, so Oblivion's Goldbrand.
Gray Fox. Giant brass balls on that bastard. Gentleman Jim was bland.
The Dark Brotherhood. All I remember from the Morag Tong was that you had a shopping list of clothing to collect. None of that nonsense.
Solstheim was my favorite part of Morrowind, and I did like it better than the Shivering Isles.
Necromancers are cooler, with N'Gasta and that soulsnare business. An island of walking dead all around your tower? That's boss. Zombie messengers? Epic.

1. Dread Zombie vs Greater Bonewalker

Dread Zombies - while GBs had better design, they drained strength. And that can never be forgiven :P

2. Vivec vs Almalexia vs Jyggalag/Sheogorath

I'm going to have to go for V&A on this. S/J were awesome, so it's a close call, but Vivec was amazing, and Almalexia was probably my favourite game villain ever.

Ever.

3. Dagoth Ur vs Mehrunes Dagon

Dagon... never really had an established storyline. so Dagoth Ur takes the cake.

4. Jauffre vs Caius Cosades

Cosades. He had clear character flaws, and a great, kind personality. Jauffre was cool too, but Caius was strikingly... human.

5. Gaenor vs Adoring Fan vs Glathrir

Fargoth.

6. Oblivion Gates vs Dwemer ruins

Dwemer ruins. Clickety CLICK, Clickety CLICK, Clickety CLICK, CRE-E-E-E-E-E-E-AK... I hope they have that kind of sound-based atmosphere in Skyrim.

7. Goldbrand of Oblivion vs Eltonbrand of Morrowind

Eltonbrand, isn't it just Goldbrand+? :P

8. Gray Fox vs Gentleman Jim

The Gray Fox. He was a great, well established character, while Stacey was kind of 'Hey, I'm the master thief. Hi.'

9. Morag Tong vs Dark Brotherhood

I'd say the Tong, because there was more mystery surrounding them. Sure, the DB was a secret, but the Tong hid in plain sight. Everyone knew how you got into the DB, but not the Morag Tong. That said, the DB plotline was much better... so I'd call it evens.

10. Solstheim vs Shivering Isles vs Mournhold

Oooh, tough... Solstheim really captured the harsh environment, SI was amazingly weird, and Mournhold... was a bit too small. So I'd say it's a tie between Solstheim and Shivering Isles.

11. Necromancer vs Conjurer

What's the difference?

EDIT: Thanks Viper, I'll go for Conjurer then. Daedra are awesome :D

Hmmm... I forgot my answers.

1. Greater Bonewalkers.I do not like Dread Zombies, they regenerate too fast, make noises, hit hard, and sneaks up behind me.
2. Sheogorath. Yay for level 254.
3. Mehrunes Dagon. If its daedra or blighted/ash creatures, its no contest.
4. Jauffre. Cauis only had a small house, while Jauffre had a fortress.
5. Gaenor. Omega Weapon of Morrowind. Adoring fan should be named Annoying Fan, and Glathrir followed me to Bleak Feats Cave and scared the [censored] out of me.
6. Oblivion Gates. They give me cool ingredients and a free enchanting, while dwemer ruins gave me nothing.
7. Goldbrand.
8. Gentelman Jim. I hate Gray Fox, sending me on an Ayleid ruin filled with Dread Zombies. (Last Quest)
9. Dark Brotherhood. I like feasting on entrails. And Morag Tong gave me a hard time with the threads of the webspinner.
10. Mournhold. They have a cool catch phrase : Mournhold! City of Light! City of Magic!
11. Conjurer. Necromancers co-lives with Dread Zombies. 'Nuff said.

oh... Eltonbrand had two extra enchantments, fortify attack and restore fatigue.
Necromancers summon undead, conjurers summon daedra.

1. Greater Bonewalker - Those were real freaky.
2. Sheogorath/Jyggalag - I dislike the tribunal.
3. Dagoth Ur - Hard to beat that cool voice.
4. Jauffre - He seemed like a good person.
5. Gaenor - Really, really tough guy to beat.
6. Oblivion Gates - At least these looked nice.
7. Eltonbrand - Obtained it by accident.
8. Gray Fox - "Capital job! Capital!"
9. Morag Tong - Their outfits look really great.
10. Shivering Isles - Unique creative design.
11. Necromancer - Interesting events unfold around them.

1. Dread Zombie vs Greater Bonewalker
Bonewalker, more original and scarier

2. Vivec vs Almalexia vs Jyggalag/Sheogorath
Gotta hand it to Sheo, much more entertaining with the voiced craziness.

3. Dagoth Ur vs Mehrunes Dagon
Dagoth Ur. Because Dagon just seemed like a random (yet giant) monster, Dagoth and Red mountain is far more interesting.

4. Jauffre vs Caius Cosades
Caius Cosades, because of the difference in how they approach the player concerning the main quest. But that's really Bethesda's 'fault' in Oblivion.

5. Gaenor vs Adoring Fan vs Glarthir
Like best? Adoring fan. I have only completed the Arena once but I don't find him annoying, and the vids on youtube are very funny sometimes.

6. Oblivion Gates vs Dwemer ruins
Dwemer ruins. I like the atmosphere better, and maybe the fact that they are in the moral world where the Dwemer lived as once of Tamriel's races.

7. Goldbrand of Oblivion vs Eltonbrand of Morrowind
No clue, never got any of them.

8. Gray Fox vs Gentleman Jim
Gray Fox, much more of a character, althoguh I barely remember GJS.

9. Morag Tong vs Dark Brotherhood
DB. For reasons mentioned, MT seemed very dull. Nice Dunmer tradition and all, and legal to boot, but they are neutral to everyone in-game in Morrowind.

10. Solstheim vs Shivering Isles vs Mournhold
I'll have to replay Bloodmoon and Tribunal, but Shivering Isles takes it by sheer beauty and Sheo.

11. Necromancer vs Conjurer
Necromancer. A conjurer just summons Daedra (respect for that though), necromancers tamper with life itself.

10. Solstheim vs Shivering Isles vs Mournhold

1. Bonewalker (I liked the animation better, and the spellcasting was a nice twist)
2. Jygallag/Sheogorath (Sheo was actually a god, and I liked his personality better)
3. Mehrunes Dagon (He looks cooler, and Dagoth Ur looked really really stupid)
4. Caius Cosades (An addict :D!)
5. Gaenor (He was the biggest challenge)
6. Oblivion Gates (Dwemer ruins were creepy)
7. Goldbrand (Eltonbrand was a bad easter egg...)
8. Gray Fox (Jim was just weird.)
9. Dark Brotherhood (They were more occult than hired assassins)
10. Mournhold (I loved the royal guard armor)
11 Necromancer (I just in general like it better)

1. Dread Zombie. Zombies are classic to my favorite Class. ( :) Answered another one already lol)
2. Almalexia, I wanted to please her, be her pet...but nope...they went and made me fight her/make her the final boss. =/
3. Dagoth Ur. Tough choice...Mehrunes was more Diabloic, Dagoth was in a Vengeful state...Both nasty. I like Dagoth due to his voice/his ability to talk to you. When he started saying you were like a brother to him when you were a god..I was mad about that... vs Mehrunes just rawring and being a basic demon bad guy...I like Mehrunes when you do quests for his statue. lol Dagoth Wins for me.
4. Jauffre. I didn't care for many Male Counter Parts in Morrowind...Jauffre was more of a bad ass to me. Like Obi Wan or something.
5. Gaenor...when he slaps on his full gear...Man he is a tough sum-[censored] to kill...Adoring Fan and Glarth are just...there to me.
6. Oblivion Gates was better....Dwemer Ruins had too many lame traps, Planes of Oblivion had exactly what I would have expected to see when you enter a Portal that was fueled by demons...Corpses hanging around, blood pools, Lava Oceans, Plants/Wild Life that attack you...Ruins svck to me. :( sorry...
7. Didn't use either...but Goldbrand looks better to me.
8. =/ Neither...! Couldn't stand the Gray Fox or Theives guild Head Masters...
9. Dark Brotherhood. Morag Tong = Ruffians, Dark Brotherhood = Down Right NASTY. I hated having to kill my entire family, I hated havign to watch my main guy be killed lke he did...I fell inlove with the Dark Brotherhood... :( -sniffle-...I can still hear my buddy [censored]ing about her using garlic in her cooking...and my large oaf of a friend bragging about having the elf's panties...
10. I miss Mournhold...but Solsteim was better expan than either. I don't like Shivering too much. I love the Females in Shivering though. The Dark and Gold Guards = Awesome. I wish for more of them in the future...but...we already know probably not gonna happen.
11. Necromancer. Necromancers are my favorite Class in every medieval fantasy game. Conjuration blows...but it's my only way I can Summon Skeletons. :(
