Holy smokes; I'm happy to see that Argonians are actually among the popular few!

Argonian as usual.

1. Argonian assassin with light armor, bow and daggers
2. Argonian warrior with heavy armor
3. ...Maybe I should try another race for a mage...or not. :D

Mannnn promise me that you're going to create that rotund Argonian fellow in your avatar for your Skyrim. Dude's looking way too chiiiiillll its unreal...

Argonian most likely, followed by Nord (maybe female) and Khajiit.

Khajiit most likely I really love the lore on them.
I like there speech patterns, like the history and style of them in the games.
I love the Khajiit desert characters in the novel Infernal City , so much so I made a spear wielding Khajiit Morrowind acrobat.
Then a warrior mage custom build in Oblivion using the Ohmes Raht modded race from the RBP mod, equiping them with pole arms and modded light armours.

I don't know what skills but I'd love to see more racial diversity with the Khajiit if in or when modded.
I'll probably go for the Ohmes Raht and custom caster build.

Dunmer.
Why?
Dunmer in Arena,
Dunmer in Daggerfall,
Dunmer in Morrowind,
Dunmer in Oblivion.

I'm going to play a Breton for sure. A sneak oriented one most likely. After that I might try a few of the other races. I've never played a Khajit properly, so I'll see.

Justin Lenoir was the Champion of Cyrodiil.
Vincent Lenoir will be the Dragonborn!

Probably a Nord in keeping with the spirit of Skyrim, but it may depend somewhat on which race's skill bonuses and special abilities seem most fun to play.

Breton first. A fine tradition since Daggerfall.

I always seem to get this overpowering urge to play magic users in TES. But its not an addiction! I can stop anytime I want!!1

Right now I'll probably start out as a Female Breton but if I don't like how the Bretons look then I'll go with either an Imperial or a Nord.

same for me

An orc because I haven't played one in a while in MW or OB. Also I want to recreate Lurtz from the Lord of the Rings movies.

I kinda change my mind about what race I want to play in Skyrim every week. I'll think I'll begin to play as a Dunmer assasin, but will only play the assasin quest line (DB)

Then I will make a new character, probably an altmer, and play as a magic user, and finish the mage quest line. (like the mage guild)

Then, I'll make a warrior character, an imperial or an orc and finish the warrior quest line (Like the fighters guild)

Then, finally, I'll choose what playstyle I prefer, and then make a character I will use to complete most of the side quests, main quests and other quest lines.
The final character will probably either be a Nord warrior, Dunmer mage or a Khajit.

Probably Nord, initially - to explore a bit, get a sense of the main quest's direction, and get to grips with the combat, magic, leveling, etc.

First serious, roleplayed character would normally be a Dark Elf, but if Skyrim's Argonian models look even half as cool as their concept art would suggest, I won't be able to resist making a lizardman spellsword.

I'll probably start out as a Nord for my first play-through. Why? Not only because Nords are really badass, but also because since Morrowind I've started with the race native to the land in which the events take place. So: Morrowind - Dunmer. Oblivion - Imperial. Skyrim - Nord.

Imperial warrior will be my first character.
A fast and agile sword-wielder with light armor.

I also will make the stereotypical Bosmer archer, and a stealthy Khajiit.
