Need help getting my characters in order

I could use a little help with my character setup.

Bolded characters are level 50 characters.
  1. Imperial Templar Stamina
  2. High Elf Sorcerer Magicka
  3. Dark Elf Sorcerer Stamina
  4. Dark Elf Dragonknight Magicka
  5. Nord Dragonknight Stamina

I am not sure if I am okay with having two sorcerers. I am trying to work on getting my #3 character, my Dark Elf sorcerer, working as a stamina bow sorcerer.
I am also obsessed with having a fire DK dunmer, so he stays.

My issue is I want a Nightblade, but I am very OCD regarding balance. In this case, I would need this Nightblade to be Magicka so I have 3 stam and 3 magicka characters.
Which should I go with? I was thinking Breton or High Elf? My options?

1. Breton Nightblade, everything else remains
2. High Elf Nightbalde, but delete my current high elf sorcerer (I dont want two high elves) and then make my Dark Elf sorcerer magicka.

Any suggestions? I am not really much of an end game min/maxer BTW.

    My first thought on a Dark Elf Sorc is Illambris. I mean, same thing applies to the High Elf, so it's not really unique. Also, I'd think Nord DK Tank, rather than a stam build.

    Okay, here's my character list:

    Breton Nightblade
    Imperial Templar (Tank) (non-50)
    Bosmer Nightblade
    Breton Sorc
    Imperial Nightblade
    Imperial Sorc (Tank)
    Breton Dragon Knight
    Imperial Dragon Knight (Tank) (non-50)
    Dark Elf Dragon Knight (Tank) (non-50)
    Khajiit Templar (Stam) (non-50)
    High Elf Sorc (non-50)
    Breton Templar (non-50)
    Breton Warden
    Imperial Warden
    Nord Warden (Tank)

    So... you know, balance.

    You've got eight slots. That's enough to have a Stam and a Magicka of each. Honestly if you want to take a look at nightblades, feel free.

    Just to add, you need 10 slots as of morrowind for 1 of each class (mag/stam)

    If you arent a min/maxer, race is only about a 10% increase and wont make a huge difference unless you intend to do the hardest of content. So, if you are looking to just play the game non-competitively just pick the race you like most.

    The thought of a Breton Nightblade using a staff but wearing thieves guild gear and sneaking but using magic instead of cliche dual daggers sounds so cool to me..

    I have an Imperial magblade. I wanted to put all my points in mag, but still have some health/stam (from racial passives). She'll probably never be end game hm trial ready, but that's not my focus anyway. I just like to try different stuff. And I wanted to see how she'd fare in PVP.

    I actually have a lot of Imperials.

    *Breton magplar (healer)
    *Imperial stamsorc (tank)
    Bosmer stamblade
    Nord dk (not actually played do enough to go one way or other)
    Imperial magblade
    Nord warden (same with dk, not sure which way but pretty sure will set her up as tank)
    Imperial stamplar
    Altmer magsorc (non pet)

    Only my * characters have hit cp, the rest I am still leveling and playing with, most more out of fun/thematic stuff than min/maxing. Like, my Altmer is actually designed as Maormer (non AD).

    Ironically, my Imperial is a stamblade, and she hits really hard, with a surprising amount of survivability for the class.

    I obviously need another warden and another dk but I haven't played with either enough to know which way I want to go with them. And healing is my favorite role, but my main does it so well, I haven't felt the need to make another healer yet. Lol
