I maxed out the height slider on mine, is Abnur Tharn just a runt? Think Lyris Titanborn may still have an inch or two on me, and i'm probably giving away quite a few pounds to her as well.

It's hard to guage because I haven't quested in areas with Breton or Redguard NPCs yet, only with other tall Altmer, or Bosmer, who I keep loosing.

    Altmers in general are really tall.

    I saw a pic where they had a comparison of all races , but i do not have it.

    Probably someone will post it down the line.

    PS: Tall bosmer? Bosmer should be shortest class in the game i believe.

    She means she's losing us, as in, she can't find her tiny Bosmeri companion anymore. Check the trees :smiley:

    Anyway, according to the chart, Altmer males and females are the tallest of all Tamriel races. Lyris Titanborn is taller than the tallest Altmer. All other races look up to the Altmer, as it should be!

    tl;dr: You're really tall.

    LOL, OP. I did exactly the same with my toon. Now I feel a bit... insecure standing out so much, especially being an Altmer in EP :smiley:

    My toon is Altmer female and she is tall even after using the height bar
    set for small. Guess there all models. :o
    When some wild-eyed, eight-foot-tall maniac grabs your neck, taps the back of your favorite head up against the barroom wall, and he looks you crooked in the eye and he asks you if ya paid your dues, you just stare that big sucker right back in the eye, and you remember what ol' Jack Burton always says at a time like that: "Have ya paid your dues, Jack?" "Yessir, the check is in the mail."

    My bosmer female is as tall as I could make her and she's still tiny compared to Altmer. I kinda wish the bosmer were slightly taller and the Altmer were slightly shorter, but that's just a personal thought and not going to be adjusted at this point of course!

    I can't remember if I maxed the slider or not, here is a comparision with Queen Beckinsale (the ugly one).

    Makes me feel good inside for some reason being the tallest possible high elf chick next to a tiny little wood elf man, most of them look like I could use them as a walking stick :D

    He's pretty small. Not much taller than my Bosmer, actually:

    Which makes me think that she'd be ridiculously tiny standing next to your Altmer. :P I get that feeling often when I walk into a bank and drown in the crowd... And even after I put the slider on the high side! But Lyris definitely is still taller than you. That's how she looks compared to a max heigh male (terribly dark, I know, but didn't plan to ever use this screen for anything):

    I've made an altmer sorceress with minimum height, but she was still much taller than most of the Covenant population, so I gave up and created a midget breton instead :D

    They're called "High-Elves" for multiple reasons, some more obvious than others.

    Numbers are needed to be put on height sliders so we can tell how tall our characters are .

    Bosmer females can get tall. They average on a higher height than most human females. They are predominantly taller than Bosmer males. Usually by a foot or two.

    Lyris is half giant...I thought Orc's were taller than Altmer.

    Shorter. Orcs are regarded as the second tallest, with Nords not far behind.

    Your measurements get more and more confusing, Hev. A foot or two? You probably meant an inch. And the only human race with shorter females are Bretons, so I don't know you arrived at "taller than most".

    In ESO Orcs are a bit shorter than Nords, as they were in Morrowind. In the newer games they're equal.
