Suggestions for an eventual Khajiit-centric update

Gidorick · February 2015

I altered the OP to change and add some information. Below are the edits.

Mounts:
Senche: Large horse sized Khajiit. They are intelligent but do not speak. They "let" others ride on them and the relationship is more a partnership than an ownership. (NOTE: Players will be getting Senche mounts and non Khajiit Senche-Cat upon the release of ESO: Tamriel Unlimited.)

Saber-Cats: Wild cats that aren't Khajiit but have been tamed for mount purposes. We have seen such cats in Skyrim and there could be various forms of Saber-Cats with Saber-Panthers and Saber-Tigers. The physical difference between the Senche-Cats and the Saber-Cats is primarily the elongated fangs and mangy appearance of the Saber-Cats.

War-Mounts:
Senche-raht: Quite a bit larger than the Senche, about the size of a elephant, tiger proportioned with the same length fore-legs and hind-legs. They have also been called “Battlecats” because of their use in war. If there were ever War-Mounts added to ESO the Senche-raht would be a good choice for the Aldmeri Dominion.

Motif
Armor of the Mane: This armor would be made of a menagerie of Khajiit fur. Similar to how the Mane wears the fur of other Khajiit, the Armor of the Mane could be a light or medium armor that grants the wearer stealth bonuses.

Bump, just cause I love @Gidorick‌

Now do me a favor and go check out http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/discussion/152125/new-class-necromancer-completed-skills-and-passives#latest

I wrote it when I was bored, hehehehe. From boredom comes many a great thing. On a more on-topic note,

These are supposed planned future zones for ESO, though they were planned back in alpha so the validity might not be up to point. I just want more Khajiit, and more Altmer.

Most of those names are still present in the data files. Also, one of the earlier online maps of Tamriel had all those region boundaries on it. I annotated it before (and tweaked after) discovering that map:

Aww, thanks @Panda244‌! You know, I've been wondering where that map with those zones came from. Thanks for the lesson @Panda244‌ & @Enodoc‌

Too bad if they ever introduce other variants they'll prolly be senche-tiger sized. I would love to see the Senche-Raht in action, but hope... Hope is lost.

No idea, that's just how it was designed by ZOS. I added extra boundaries on my version only where the map doesn't match the current in-game situation (RS/WG, VH/EM/RI, ST/BF) or if some boundaries were incomplete (NB/NV). Maybe when planning future zones within Skyrim, they thought Haafingar and Winterhold were too small to be their own separate zones, and piled them into The Reach and The Pale.

I posted a siege weapon concept for War Mounts that was conceived by asking the question "how could Senche-Raht fit into ESO"

@Gidorick

Awhile back the original poster of this thread -- Gidorick -- gave mention of this thread in one that I myself had created some time ago. I'm sorry to say that I didn't take notice of this until just now; because what he proposes in this thread directly pertains to an aspect of what I proposed.

So, returning the favor he paid me by posting in my thread, I'll post in his to show my express and vehement support of these ideas.

For those interested, I will also post a link to the thread (and poll) of mine that is in question.

Should Khajiit and Argonians be able to choose their skeletal structures during Character Creation?:

Gidorick · March 2015

Thanks @Marik_Vash. I think we can all agree that in a game that spans ALL of Tamriel only having one type of Khajiit is just.... incorrect. Lol. I recently suggested a way to monetize these features here:http://forums.elderscrollsonline.com/en/discussion/155307/monetization-of-character-creation-concept?new=1

Hopefully @ZOS is listening.

I agree.

And thanks. Over the years I have come to love the world of the Elder Scrolls more than any other fantasy setting. The combination of gritty fantasy with actual interactions with god-like demonic beings... there's just something about it.

Maybe they should fix their broken game first.
