    Dunmer has been my favorite since morrowind, the passives are ok, but it's their lore and culture that really interests me.

    Lets see .... I don't actually have a nord yet.

    First account: NA: Dunmer, altmer, bosmer, altmer, orc, orc, Imperial, bosmer (re-roll of the earlier bosmer to change class but I haven't rolled her up yet.

    EU: Breton

    Second account: Redgard, argonian, khajiit, sorta bosmer (rolled her up and playing her as a goblin [long story]), orc, dunmer, sorta dunmer (rolled her up and am playing her as a maormer [another weird story]), orc

    EU: orc

    My "main" would be a tie between an orc and an altmer who I've been playing most lately.
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.
    ***
    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis

    Argonians, always loved them and will always love them. I play a race because I like the race not because of its racial or things like that. I'm not a PvP person but then again I play with game for fun and to entertain myself. Who cares if I'm not "the uber top most OP player because I have the best build ever".

    Not everyone likes to "take the easy route" either and have all the odds in their favor. I like competition too and always try my best no matter.

    I believe it's based on the race of you primary, or "main", character's race.

    I'm actually amazed by the disinterest in Redguards. You'd think they'd be a popular race for Stamina-based builds more than they are. But I rarely see them in game or talked about on the forums.
    Well, my magicka-based Templar is a Redguard :D

    Actually, I've got him set up with a couple of different sets of gear so that (with the help of Wykkyd Outfitter and Wykkyd Macros) at a tap of a button I can swap him from a healer setup to a magicka DPS setup to a tank setup. In the tank setup his racials come in really handy.

    I would go with /played over level, and probably acheivements, particularly the trophy and exploration ones. Are you some one who considers yourself a pvper, an rper? Or do you just sometimes enjoy those things and created a character just for those roles? Fundamentalmentally only you can really decide who of your characters feels like the primary, and which are alts.

    Raksha - Khajiit Sorcerer - Stamina DPS

    All my characters have a purpose....ummm as far as play I do a bit of everything.. I guess my favorite character...thought it is played on less than 5 others is a fat squat argonian male Nightbkade...but my current favorite to play is a dunmer sorcerer make....both are ep....but my favorite race is probably khajiit....but my highest level khajiit is only 25...
