» Tue Oct 04, 2011 4:31 pm

now that we know the race perks, what will you choose?

yeah i know 10 different races is a hard choice.

ORCS: Beserker
REDGUARDS: Adrenaline rush
WOOD ELF: Resist poison, resisit disease, command animals
NORD: Battlecry, 50% resist cold
KHAJIIT: Night-eye, claw attacks
IMPERIAL: Voice of the Emperor, find more coins when looting
HIGH ELF: Regenerate magicka more quickly
DARK ELF: Ancestor's Wrath (surround self in fire), resist fire
BRETON: Dragonskin (absorb spells), resist shock
ARGONIANS: Histskin (regenerate health quickly), resist disease 50%, breathe underwater

The winner gets a virtual cookie :cookie:

I always start out as a warrior, and I always make my character look like me and since I am black, I will be choosing Redguard.

NORD FTW

Nord!

I would choose nord, but if I dont dark elf is gonna blast me to hell with her Ancestor's Wrath

Breton. As long as they don't look like sissies.

I prefer to play a magic user, and Bretons having a natural affinity with magic makes them the ideal choice....and they're not yellow coloured like Altmer.

Imperial.

I will be a redguard because I play myself and I'm black, but I may make an argonian me just for fun.

» Tue Oct 04, 2011 9:59 pm

well i almost always picked breton in oblivion because of the magic resistance and larger mana pool, but i havent found any statistics over the starting health magicka and stamina yet, nor inventory size. Might try being a argonian since they look a lot better now

First one probably a Nord since it is Skyrim and I'm interested in the new techniques and that sort of things,
at the second playtrough I'll be an Altmer

Me as well, but only because that's the character I'm choosing to play ( father was a Breton mother was an argonian) I'll probably (ie will) choose a completely different character choice for each of my characters, until I've expended each race, faction, skill/ perk tree selection, and guild selection. And once I'm done with that I can actually enjoy the game >_>..... Okay maybe not all that but sort of that.... To put it lightly I want to completely experience the game >_>....

My most complete and lengthy character on all Elder Scrolls game have always been a Redguard, this time will be no different.

» Tue Oct 04, 2011 11:30 pm

The list of the race traits are complete ?

» Wed Oct 05, 2011 5:11 am

I decided to play a bosmer when I saw the presets, race bonuses don't really matter to me.

Argonian 1st playthrough

Orc 2nd

Redguard 3rd

Khajiit 4th

The rest of the races svck, imo.

I am black and have out three and a half years into playing a redgaurd so im pretty much done playing one...I am a leo and the khajiit is vey appealing to me so i started it in obilivion but never finished so im gonna do it on skyrium... But what type of perk is claww attack??? Like every other race sounds legit and then you get to kahjiit and it's like ohh.. claw attack... One of the things that made me die laughing is how the racial perk for redgaurds correspond to the real life stereotype that black people are more athletic!!!!

Ditto the first thought about redguard.

» Wed Oct 05, 2011 3:05 am

Nord on my first character.

» Tue Oct 04, 2011 8:04 pm

I'm black so Redguard first. Then all black Khajiit killer to vent the ruthless killer side.

» Wed Oct 05, 2011 8:36 am

I eventually play them all but traditionally my first character since Morrowind is a Khajit

'BRETON: Dragonskin (absorb spells), resist shock'
What the [censored]!?
They [censored] ruined Bretons!
What a [censored] svcking [censored]!?
Where is their magic resistance and their increase magicka pool?
Those were two reasons I played with the damn race (plus they have cool lore)!
And why Dragonskin doesn't increase defense like it used to?
Their bonuses were perfect as they were!

And why Argonians don't have resist poison?
It's in their [censored] lore ffs!

Talk about sticking to the lore. >_>

I thought they said that they will improve races, not [censored] them up!

Edit:
OP, please provide link to source.

Modders will correct this glaring error, i'd imagine.

Here's a short version of my characters backstory which explains what race he will be in Skyrim.

Riften is a kind adventurous Elf who was born in 3E 399 Valenwood, back then he was a religious Bosmer who went on many pilgrimages which gained him high standards with the Divines. Talos granted him Immortality and the Gift to change race and province at any time during his life, But he only does it every couple of years when he feels like his life during that time is uneventful or boring.

During his time in Valenwood he was Bosmer
During his time in Morrowind he was Dunmer
During his time in Cyrodill he was Manmer
During his time in Skyrim he was Altmer
