    Something I consider rather bizarre. I guess I come from old school MMO / Online gamers where the character is your avatar, what represents you.

    A hot little Bosmer does not represent me in any way.

    Because a grown man playing a fantasy role playing game is so manly? Some guys appreciate the female form and powerful women and aren't looking to RP hook up in a video game. Why should it make any difference to you, unless that's why you care? So as not to shock you, I am not a nightblade IRL either.

    Same. Which is why I made a curvaceous little blonde/blue eyed Breton. She yells a lot, too.

    out of my 8 toons, 2 are female. The first toon i rolled was a female toon. wanna know why? because in past games ive played, unless using an AoE, you had to target the player you were attacking. In these games you could make females smaller, so i always rolled a super tiny female healer, ESO is the first MMO ive played where i rolled a DPS toon and not a healer. anyway thats why i have a female toon, but she is only a crafter now, kinda sexist tbh. she stays safe in rhawl making cloths and cooking for the men....


    this in no way reflects me btw lol, although i do appreciate a good sammich now and then ;)

    I got the point. I don't need to identify w/ an avatar to represent myself in a pixelated universe, though.

    I just see them as characters, just as in a novel or movie, and to that extent I create characters I'd like to see, not extenstions of myself.

    I guess I see your point. But hearing a male voice grunt and huff and puff all the time would kill my immersion. Oh wait...
