I always have started playing TES games as an Imperial, so I will probably go Imperial for this game as well.

Lol I like how everyone forgets about the Redguards, anyway I summon Argonian to be my first playthrough.

My Oblivion character (without being frozen in carbonite for ~200 years) will be my Skyrim character thanks to Altmer longevity. Why, initially, an Altmer? 'Cause I supposedly look like an elf and the magicka bonus was appealing. Not sure why, but making the character look like me makes it easier to RP.


Dunmer, and for much of the same reason that this guy said. Except it isn't only the Altmer who are long lived, most all of the Mer are as well. And my Dumner in Oblivion is a highly accomplished Assassin & Mage, so... yeah, he's still kickin' 200 years later. lol Magic has kept him young.

But definitely playing as a Dunmer, the whole mood surrounding them as a race fits me pretty well, and thus they are my favorite race to play.

For a second play-through, I'll probably go with a Nord (read: tank...) Warrior. I'm originally from Germany, and we have traced my Family Line back through the centuries all the way back to Norway and the Vikings, so Nords have always held a special place in my heart as well.

Welcome the return and revitalization of the Asatru! ;)

This poll is flawed, it doesn't have all the races.

The missing race doesn't get too much votes anyway :hehe:
Joke, yes the poll is broken.

Orc all the way! By far the best stats and racial abilities for a fighter. Way better looking then any of the humans. Played an orc shaman in WoW so gonna go along those same lines. Like the idea of looking like Thrall. Gonna be a 1-h/shield, heavy armor with destruction and resto magic.

Argonian as usual. Maybe I try a female for a change, mostly for the lolz.

Nord for the 1st character
Bosmer for my 2nd character

Doubt there will ever be a third for a serious play-through.
Maybe some experimental ones, but nothing full scale.

Argonian. I liked them from the first time I ever touched a TES game (Morrowind) and have played them ever since. Not to mention they got a fantastic overhaul for Skyrim.

I have characters planned for all 10 races but Nord will be my first. I love vikings. And Thor.

Argonian first, then a Khajiit, then again Argonian (female) and that's it, 3 characters will get me to the next TES.
