The Skyrim's Racial Preferences Thread

Post » Sun Oct 02, 2011 8:22 am

Title + Poll explains it all. Please keep it civilized and respect other's opinions. You may find references from the Lore and post them here for your reasons.

You may counter-argue but you may not OFFEND others, also provide proof (if you have any Lore-Wise proof) to counter-argue if possible. Thank you.

oooo ook me first.
the first question is kinda dumb, the most populated race in skyrim? i just selected orcs for lore reason
2nd one tho, most hated, i hope is altmer =0 the nords are suppose to HAAATTTEE elfs.
3nd, most looked down upon, i think should be bosmer. there weak, frail, and wimpy in the eyes of the nord. so its kinda of like how a redneck looks at a vegan, yo u know?
4th most adored, duh nords

EDIT: i accedently voted dunmer and not bosmer lol, although there plenty to hate when it comes to dunmer =p

Obviously people are going to look down on Bosmer, and whichever race is the grand champion is going to be most adored.

Favorite races are Imperials and Dunmer.

Hopefully I'll also like Nords in Skyrim.

I like caucasian girls. Brunette is ok, Blonde is better, but Red Head? JACK POT.

Personality is all it really comes down to, but looks wise, a pretty face is required as is, to quote Abraham Lincoln;

Read the question properly : Which race do YOU WANT. If you want the Imperials for example to be the most 'commonly' found race in Skyrim, you vote Imperials. With the first question it's not strictly 'provide evidence' but it's about what you want not what's it going to be in Skyrim. Everybody knows Nords will be the most commonly found race in Skyrim, it's their region after all.

About the same amount of time for slavery in the United States, and the African-Americans never forgave us Caucasians, so I don't really see what 200 years would do in TES lore.

I agree. The Argonians will always be prejudicial towards the Dunmer and vice-versa, some grudges will never be forgotten and some feelings will always be passed on from one generation to another. IMO Imperials made a mistake, they made en exception of the Empire Rules so the Dunmer could join the Empire without losing it's slavery tradition. If the Dunmer REALLY wanted to join the Empire, they should have respected the Empire Rules in the first place and drop that immoral and anti-civilized tradition. Fortunately King Henselt erased the Dunmer's slavery tradition.

Joke's On You! I'm already in Prison and My Speechcraft is at 176.

OT: Argonians need to be RARE. As in, like 4 of them. It's the Frozen North for Christsake.

I'd hope that the people that hate the fictional Dunmer so much for fictionally enslaving a fictional race of talking lizard people never take an actual real-life history class.
