I am making like a necromancer- mage, Deathlord kinda character (it's a she) and I want to know what the best race, not only for stats, but for like looks and the most beleivable. (like how Nords are good warriors cuz of their history and battle type)

Altmer have more magicka, I'd go with that, or Breton. Dunmer have a cultural abhorrence of necromancy, though you do find them.

I've never seen a Khajiit, Argonian, Redguard, or Orc necromancer. Might be a bit of fun to go against the grain & play one.

Breton or Altmer are probably your best best. Altmer have more magicka but Breton's have a decent passive magic boost. Honestly either would work well.

Not to mention Bretons start with a higher level in conjuration, which really doesn't matter because it all balances out by level 10 or so anyway. I would go with Altmer or Breton but really play what you like.

Haha sry but I actually already picked. Idk why I even asked (i'm impulsive and couldn't wait for a response lol :tongue: ) But I actually did pick Redguard. She looks pretty sweet. I thought that the skin would look cool (idk if that's racist, but I hope not) and like Queen of the Dead kinda thing. Thx for your suggestions

It's not racist at all to mention the colour of someone's skin. Good luck with your necromancer, there's actually a Redguard necromancer poking around somewhere in Skyrim other than yourself. :P

What other skills will you use other than Conjuration?

Well I meant I didnt want it to be racist that the law breaking necromancer was black haha...

I was thinking warrior/ necromancer. Conjured battleaxe and reanimate spells. Heavy armor, with maybe a mage hood to help... She is going to be vampire of course
