    And while we're at it can we get black hair for Imperials too? And can the color of my JEWELRY pretty please NOT be dictated by what hair color I chose in character creation? Because OMG that's annoying! ZO$ please, please please give us AT LEAST 3 metal color choices for ALL jewelry and adornments. Silver, gold, and bronze or copper!

    Nope, you are stick to that funny yellow-golden skin and bright hair, if you will black and pale, it will be no altmer anymore but some character from pulp fiction fantasy.

    Imperials can have black hair. :)
    I totally agree about the jewelry thing. Whoever thought to make the jewelry color change depending on hair color needs to be demoted to bathroom duty. Permanently.

    OMG, that drives me bonkers. I've looked at jewelry and thought "oh pretty" and then couldn't find it on the right character. Took me forever to realize I had found it but it changed colors.

    Imperial "black" hair is really just a dark brown. It is not the glorious blue-black hair that Bretons have access to.

    And I totally agree with the bathroom duty! lol

    Why a dye pack? Altmers have natural black hair in Skyrim (don't remember the other TES games). Was the mutation acquired in the Third Age?I don't think so, make it available at the character creatioln!

    Favorite Foods and Potions
    https://media.giphy.com/media/3otPoTggaYFNd1FdAI/giphy.gif
    • Parse Food for PvE:(DPS) Ghastly Eye Bowl (increases Max Magicka by 4592 and Magicka Recovery by 459 for 2 hours).
    • Gold/Purple Food for Sorc PvP and Meme Tanking:(PvP) Clockwork Citrus Filet (increases Max Health by 3326, Health Recovery by 406 [useful if stage 1 vampire], Max Magicka by 3080, and Magicka Recovery by 338 for 2 hours). Witchmother's Potent Brew (Increase Max Magicka by 2856, Max Health by 3094, and Magicka Recovery by 315 for 2 hours.
    • Trash Potions when feeling cheap: Regular CP150 Essence of Magicka pots that I obtain frequently from playing the game or Crown Tri-Restoration Potion obtained from dailies.
    • Crafted Potions: Essence of Spell Critical (Bugloss, Lady's Smock, and Water Hyacinth). Without magelight this is my primary means of obtaining Major Prophecy on my Sorc, which increases my Spell Critical Rating. This also heals and restores magicka. Essence of Immovability (Columbine, Corn Flower, and Wormwood). I use this in PvP, since this gives me stealth detection, knockback immunity, and restores magicka (better to use it when competent allies are nearby, since it might reveal that you are surrounded by multiple players in stealth and you will not have an emergency pot available after use). Essence of Invisibility with only 2 ingredients (Blue Entoloma, Namira's Rot, Nirnroot, or Spider Egg). I use this in PvE content that requires stealth and if I need more speed I'll use Rapid Maneuver before using the potion. Essence of Invisibility with 3 ingredients (Blessed Thistle, Blue Entoloma, and Namira's Rot). Very useful in PvP alongside the vampire Dark Stalker passive, since you'll be invisible, ignore movement speed penalty while in Crouch, and you'll have a 30% movement speed boost from Major Expedition (I always have this slotted when riding from point A to B in PvP land, since gankers are always lurking). My templar will mostly use Essence of Health (Tri-Stat Potion) Ingredients: (Mountain Flower, Columbine, and Bugloss).

    This is still relevant and creating a new post would be spamming, right? So this isn't Necro. Let's call this reminding of what matters, really.

    Fashion is the true end game in ESO and whoever says otherwise is just lying to themselves. Dark/black high elf hair is needed for end gamers to enjoy it more.

    Legends never die
    They're written down in eternity
    But you'll never see the price it costs
    The scars collected all their lives
    When everything's lost, they pick up their hearts and avenge defeat
    Before it all starts, they suffer through harm just to touch a dream
    Oh, pick yourself up, 'cause
    Legends never die
