Can only Imperial characters craft Imperial items?

DewiMorgan

So, I bought the Imperial pack.

I created a crafting character that was Bosmer. Just spent over a week grinding crafting furiously... and only just realized that there are no stylebooks for Imperial crafting. And I didn't start out knowing it.

I can rightclick on items I've crafted to convert them to Imperial, but then they are bound to my account, which is no use.

So, just asking this to make 100% sure before trash this character, sigh deeply and start over: am I correct that the only race which can ever craft Imperial items, is an Imperial?

Any character can craft any race's items.

The only thing you need is to find a Motif book, which can be a tricky thing, 'cause it's random in a same way as recipes are. And, yes, there are Imperial Motifs. People even trade them.

Up until you find that book, converting is the only option.
