Imperial passives increase your max health and stamina pools, as well as having Red Diamond (? Blood Diamond maybe?) passive that has a chance to heal yourself when you deal damage. Its a low heal, but its definitely useful.
if not, then an Orc or Redguard is your best bet. I believe Orc has high health/health recov passives? (I could be wrong, I've not played one myself). Redguards have the Stamina passives.
I'm also thinking about creating a Stamina Sorcerer.
I was thinking about Wood Elf partially because i haven't got an Aldemeri Character yet partially because i play mostly PvP and i think Bosmer is also a really strong choice there.
3% Max Stamina and Posion Resist if you go Werewolf
21 % Stamian Regen with 25% from Champion tree + 21% Racial Passive + 15% Werewolf + 20% Daedric Summoning Passive + 20% Major Endurance Buff you get 101% Stamina Regen.
Better Sneaking and more Sneak Damage is also nice especially if you go for bow or Vampire for more damage from the Ult.
I was on the fence between Orc and Redguard for a PVP oriented build.
I went Redguard and don't regret it.
I really liked the idea of Orc speed and melee damage, but my thought process is that the extra stam from redguard probably makes the difference in damage negligible, and would apply to bow damage if you decide to go that route. Now with poison coming back in a big way, bow could be powerful.
Also the 9% stam regen and Adrenaline Rush are a real help in resource management.
If you plan on focusing on PVE the health bonus from Imperial may be more beneficial, but is not as critical in PVP since you get the extra 5000 HP.
I do wonder what that speed would be like sometimes as an Orc, but with Medium Armor, Boundless Storm (7.5 seconds Major Expedition), and Streak I feel like it is still the fastest toon that I have.
Orc for PvP berserker
Khajiit for crit' and "burst"
Redguard for PvE sustain et great DPS
Bosmer for sustain from outside fights and to be a great escape artist xD
Imperial is the best choice if you want to be in the same time a Berserker PvP-PvE and great survival (to temporise, Is it the right word?)
EDIT : Prefer the Lore Character, its appearance rather than racial passives.
Orc Nord Redguard or Khajiit, Khajiit has passive that is for HP & Stam recovery so it also helps with stam build like Redguard, + Khajiit has crit bonus passive & wep dam bonus passive
