    The race of the person in IC who just ganked me 3 times.
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.
    ***
    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis

    ... I don't know whether I should be disgusted with you, or feel pity for you. Either way, it's not all your fault that you're like that. I blame your parents, and the society you were raised in.

    Anyways...

    I feel Imperials, because it seems to me that every other race has something beneficial going for them. Imperials used to be in a good spot, but now even Nords have a better kit than them. And the sad part is, you have to pay extra for access to the Imperial race.

    Umm... Not really. The Altmer are not terrible people. I highly advise you go over your lore again. If you find being a perfectionist and never being satisfied as being a terrible person, then I don't know what to tell you. The Dunmer? Yes. They believe in slavery, and have a lot of messed-up practices. It's to the point that they were cursed even, as they got too big for their britches (metaphorically speaking).

    It was difficult to choose between Dunmer, Argonian, Nord and Orc.

    Dunmer.... I played one in Skyrim so I can't hate on them too much (though the ones in ESO push all my buttons)

    Argonians, well I think they're horrible. I have a hard time identifying with them but every once in a while they'll do something funny and make me roll my eyes (a whole race of dad jokes) they Can look cool...

    Nords, hated them in Skyrim. Pretty lackluster design wise when it comes to human races. Redguard have more interesting design and Breton has a more classically beautiful design.

    I settled for orc because duck Stuga, that's why. Lol no it's because they can't get their snip together and are super edgy all the time. They are way too high strung.

    Imperial because of the last racial passive Red Diamond. The proc chance(10% of melee attacks) and heal(6% of your max health) don't really work well together. I've tested it with just over 30K health and good sustain to spam melee attacks(tried rapid strikes, light ransack bash combo). Put simply, the juice is not worth the squeeze. Honestly, the nord is just better. Nords get a little less health and stamina but get health recovery(which is great with Troll King, and puts Red Diamond to shame) and 6% damage reduction which is awesome. Or one could go with a redguard and just get better resource to spam stamina heals(like Vigor or Rally). As it is now, I don't even consider Red Diamond when looking at the Imperial race for theory crafting.

    Altmer, in a later era, practically made khajiit their slaves after claiming they restored the two moons, which had disappeared for a few years, using their magic. If they made them disappear, then that just makes Altmer all the more awful.

    No Bretons all the way. The best looking race and he nicest people and they build the best looking castles. Also their names are the best.

Blending the disciplines of the stealthy agent and subtle wizard, I move unseen and undetected, foil locks and traps, and teleport to safety when threatened, or strike like a viper from ambush. The College of Illusion hides me and fuddles or pacifies my opponents. The College of Mysticism detects my object, reflects and dispels enemy spells, and makes good my escape.
