Hide/No Tail Option For Argonians

Hey guys,

I had this idea floating in mind and thought I should share it. I think there should be an option to hide your Argonian’s tail, just like the “hide helmet” option, or just an option for no tail in character creation. I like Argonians, I think they are cool but the tail is kind of a turn off. Think of Bossk from Star Wars right now. A humanoid reptile with no tail would be a dream character for me in ESO.

For a side note, I do not think it would break the lore. I have some knowledge on Argonians and it would not be too far fetched to see some without tails. Perhaps they possess the ability to lose their tail to escape, like Geckos. Maybe they were born without one or it could be a tradition in a tribe, like how some people elongate a child’s head at a young age.

Anyways, I would love to have this as an option one way or another.

Thanks,
-Yzalirk

    No. The only tradition argonian tribes really adhere to is giving the dark brotherhood any saxhleel born under the sign of the shadow.

    Every argonian has a tail. Argonian behemoths have tails. Hell, even Nagas are supposed to have tails.

    I suppose its not unimaginable that some Argonian tribes practice that as a form of body modification. However, if even losing your little toe can have huge impacts on a person's balance, I hate to think about losing a tail.

    Anyway, Argonians have had tails from Daggerfall onwards, at the least. They look different in Arena, but there's been a lot of changes since Arena, including the addition of orcs as a playable race.

    Let's have a hide arms option for Bretons too. Hide legs for Redguards, and hide torso for Altmers.

    I mean, the tail is only part of their bodies.

    While I do love the Argonians and the Hist, I do think that someone would have made this. Maybe a dunmer from house Dres, or one of the Naga who hate Argonians (if we ever get murkmire and see Nagas, this would be a great addition.)

    can we remove Nord feet? They are too small for their bodies.

    Personally I think khajiit and argonians both should have various tail style options available during character customization. Should have different spines or bone plating for argonians tails, and khajiit should have options for a fur tuft on the end like lions have or a shaggy undertail like the snow leopard pet or jewelry rings on the tail.
