    It wouldn't be, every single motif in the game would have to be changed to fit onto a minotaur's body, and many (if not all) of the citizens wouldn't let some random monster just waltz into their business.

    Non humanoid would be way to much work because of styles, animations and so on.

    Maormer, Reachmen, other Khajiit types as in Ohmes-raht are all option who are easy to implement.
    Lore friendly as in Maormer is an race, other khajiit types has other racials. Reachmen is not technicaly an race but very different from Breton as we know them.
    Grinding just make you go in circles.
    Asking ZoS for nerfs is as stupid as asking for close air support from the death star.

    Reachmen are like a hybrid race (lol fitting) with a focus on offense imo. Maormer could have a damage boost to lightning (after the next round of racial changes itd just be like spell crit or something). And then the other ones like Ohmes-raht or Naga could just be polymorphs if they don't want to add more races (tho Naga could be a race focusing on offensive stamina abilities with more of a focus on dealing damage and having higher stam).

    With the current situation we have right now with the races passives i would vouch for Racial Polymorphs since they seem to keep adding skins and tattoos os, just add the Ohmes Rhat Khajiit variant as a polymorth, the Igma, Maomer and Kothringi as well.

    Minotaur. Who else thinks that would absolutely rule?
    ...and absolutely clip through most doorways? :p
    How about Snow elves?
    ...those have not been seen for millenia. A big fat "nope" (sadly).

    And that would actually be a possibility, since the lore has not one but two Simian races available - the ape-like Imga (which are curiously absent from Valenwood, likely hiding with Falinesti or something) and the monkey-like Tang Mo (over in Akavir).

    In any case, my thoughts on new race possibilities are on record:

    Well, I keep wanting a spear wielding Sea Elf necromancer.
    Well, for that we would also need... a polearm skill line to get that spear thing going! (though for a maormer... would a trident not be more fitting?) Been there, imagined that:

    Additional Argonians and additional Khajiit types would be great.
    The other options could only work as cosmetics imo.
    This Bosmer was tortured to death. There is nothing left to be done.

    Totally agree. Sea Elves are in this game, frankly, as just another race. They're not particularly mysterious in the grand scheme of things, with them living with Khajiit for goodness' sake!

    The more races/sub races the better as long as they're balanced imo. I think a few easy additions would be Naga, Maormer, Reachmen, and then Imgas and potentially Lilmothiit.

    Wat Maormer don't live with Khajiit. They live on Pyandonea. I don't think Khajiit live on Pyandonea.
