    Altmer are too snobby to use such a mount.. I bet they would complain that it smells and is dirty

    Nah, we are good.

    The only ones that might be worse is Dunmer, but only maybe

    Well that's racist.

    I can allow myself to be racist in videogames :) those two races really rub me the wrong way

    It's okay. It is just kinda unfair with so many extremely nice Altmer and Dunmer npcs in the game. But to each their own.

    Don't worry :) lots of them are indeed nice.. But they are the exception to the rule

    Maybe I'm just biased. I am under the impression that most of the Altmer and Dunmer we meet in the game who are allies and not enemies are quite nice.
    Just so that everyone knows, my Altmer still can't have black hair. About a dozen of Altmer NPCs in the game have black hair. Just saying.

    Meet my characters:
    Command: Do the thing.

    Zadarri, Khajiit Fist of Thalmor: The thing was done, as commanded.
    Durza gra-Maghul, Orc blacksmith: The thing was done perfectly, in the most efficient way.
    Tegwen, Bosmer troublemaker: You can't prove I didn't do the thing.
    Sings-Many-Songs, Argonian fisher: Sure, I'll do the thing... Eventually. Maybe.
    Aerindel, Altmer stormcaller: After extensive research, I've come to the conclusion that doing the thing would be a waste of resources.
    Liliel, Dunmer pyromancer: Aerindel said I shouldn't do the thing. Something about "resources".
    Gyda Snowcaller, Nord cryomancer: I will find a way to do it that won't waste resources and make Aerindel proud of me.
    Beatrice Leoriane, Breton vampire: I persuaded someone else into doing the thing. You are welcome, dear.
    Sahima, Redguard performer: Doing the thing sounds awfully unpleasant and really not my problem.
    Ellaria Valerius, Imperial priestess: I'll pray to the Eight for the thing to be done, if it is Their will.

    Awesome! I think I am becoming a known annoyance to zos on eso live about a potential deer mount in the future (gotta spread that word of demand somehow). Lol. But an elk mount is acceptable in the meantime :) woohoo!

    Looks beautiful. My altmer character will be pleased to sit upon an elk for the time being. <3

    Edit: anyone know a guesstimated time of release? I'm so excited

    Hey, if it's good enough for Elrond and friends it's good enough for me. [img][/img]thranduil.jpg

    That's Thranduil. Elrond just rides a horse.

    (Sadly, I am that much of a LotR geek. Sorry.)

    But if it goes in the damned crate I will not be happy. <understatement>

    I'm sorry! I knew it wasn't Elrond, I really did. I have no clue why I typed Elrond. If we could have that mount though I might even be persuaded to buy it.

    Give it time. If ZOS adds lore regarding them in the game, then it becomes lore friendly. Like the Dire Wolves.

    I'm not sure about any actual lore regarding an elk mount, but it would make sense for Bosmer to use an elk as a mount. At the very least it makes more sense for Bosmer than a horse, bear or guar (especially as guar aren't native to Valenwood...).

      Guars weren't lore before Morrowind, Aurorans weren't lore before Oblivion, mammoths weren't lore before Skyrim etc etc. All games add new lore! And people do actually ride deer IRL (albeit just reindeer)...
