I name my character, choose alliance AD, choose role and when I choose Dark Elf
it changes my Alliance to DC.

Is this the only way?

Bummer!

    The ability to chose any race in any alliance was the pre order bonus.If you just bought the game than yes you will not be able to chose any race in any alliance.

    The dunmer are EP though not DC.

    Yep, you need explorer's pack (still can buy it for a euro or so on several sites, g2a sold the last time I checked, a guildmate used a code from there recently, it was okay), although dark elf is EP not DC.

    No, it's the explorer's pack, imperial edition just lets you create imperials and convert most gear.

    People have upgraded to imperial edition thinking they could create in any faction, but it's the explorers pack that does that. The confusion is because so many bought the Imperial edition with the pre-order explorer's pack, and thought it was all in (not realising they were getting two seperate things together).
    People believe what they either want to be true or what they are afraid is true!

    Ah ok yeah mine was preordered so I thought since it was imperial edition that's why. Thank you for the clarification

    No problem, it's a very common misconception, and if I had gotten the Imperial edition on preorder I would have made it too.

    When I was a kid I used to go to a local icerink to skate, and one thing that people may not know about Freddy Mercury is that he was an awesome ice-skater - really good, could have probably done it professionally or in the winter Olympics or something. Anyway I used to see him at my local icerink, and he was really cool and also nice to people and fans :)
