Hey, Elf characters

That's why I said borderline spam. I've been to many forums and chat rooms where they even consider typing in all caps as spam. But nonetheless rude indeed.

Caps is also considered as shouting

They are not "half" Altmer

They only have small part elven blood
Yeah, their elven lineage is exaggerated. And taking Racial Phylogeny (an in-game book describing inter-species relations) into account, it's likely that any elfness in them is recessive (so to speak, since TES may not be too strict on the whole genetics and heredity thing).

Yes, yes it is. Not sure what your point is, but I agree with what you said.

Should we make giant signatures saying that the Thalmor are human excrement after it was eaten by a troll and then dropped out again?

just adding to what you said

Definitely. I agree that many read too much into the Elven input. It is only a small amount due to "some" of their ancestors being used as 'six slaves'.

I think the more noble heraldry of High Rock may have less Elven genes due to years of Nord & Imperial interaction in the cities and major towns and the commoner country folk may have a bit more Elven input but even then it's only a small amount.

I love Bretons :shrug:

You and me too buddy :smile:

Hell yeah.

Gotta love the magic resistance ... I like having magic advantages like elves without the nasty pointy ears.

I don't care, my characters don't care. I'm not a bigoted person and because of that I find it hard for me to play as one.

My first successful character in Morrowind all those years ago was a Breton. Got to lvl 71 after 2 years of playing. I believe what ever Mer they had in them has long since been completely diluted or bred out. Their affinity to magick one could put down to being one of the few races that have made it a pivotal part of their lives. Merely reinforcing the mythos of their origins. Sort of like myself, My heritage is Roman. But does that make me roman?
