the imperial - volume two

Post » Sun Sep 23, 2012 1:35 am

there was unfinished business with this....

i figured out that actually a lot of races do not originate from tamriel , the nords are one such type ...not sure about the imperials though, did they sail up the niben or where they brought as slaves by the ayleids there

*niza , the ayleids were an ancient elven race sometimes known as "the wild elves" who are pretty much extinct now , although there is some speculation...;)

Wild Elves are Elves, only that they are wild, like wild human

oh yes, why call Elves, Khajit and Argonian as races,they are not races, they are creatures.

Race is the same creature but different skin, like you and me, we are both human, i am Malay race, you are British.

Khajit is cat men, Argonian is lizard men, Elf is not human...in my own culture they are a sort of spirit

quite so old chap , i think all the lizards and cat people should be tagged up and be shot , we just cant risk that sort of rabble in cyrodill * i say in my most upper-class voice* :lol:

i agree with you that elves and beastfolk are not the same as the "human" races , indeed they are a different species, with different biological and scyholigical differences to humans ie. only likly to have one or two children / live for hundreds of years

i heard those foul orc things some call elves , HA! they can barley speak from those elongated fanged mouths , did you know in arena they were considered beasts rather than a playable race ? ow yes ...:D

i suppose you could say a redguard and an imperial are both human with different skin tones , but actually this is incorrect , the redguards have different biological implications to imperials , they are different ( although related) "races"

however.... there are actually a few differences between the races we have on earth , biologically speaking - so does that mean we are all different "races"

its all nutty if you ask me , seems like tamriel are obsessed with race and culture , i always smile when i play cyrodill but sometimes it just reminds me of Britain , with the stiff upper-middle-lower class division that divides everybody , and how all the npc judge eachother depending on how much gold and wealth they have , martin septim reminds me of the virtues of being english :P
