So, I'm a Khajiit

I should make an autosixual Argonian that marries a Dunmer and never sleeps in the same house as the Dunmer. It could work. Their bonding time would mean more that way.

You can only marry in Minecraft with real people. Who would want to marry real people?

If your owner allows you to be an inside Khajiit you'll also need a litter box.

Personally the lack of Khajit is down to Bethesda trying to make it realstic, Elsweyr is on the other side of the world so it would be odd if there loads of Khajit around compared to Imeperials, Bertons and Dummers who's homelands are nearby that you would expect a bunch of them living in skyrim.
^True. In Oblivion it was pretty much equal everything, Cyrodiil being a melting pot and Morrowind was mostly Dunmer.

Don't give me this "realistic" garbage. You can still waltz right into any city as a Khajiit without any questioning.

I want to adopt Aventus. That poor kid needs a parent. Do you think we can just swoop into Honor Hall and adopt all the kids?
Yes, it would be nice to have some slave labor >:D

Yes, become a "human lady." rather than cat lady. A Khajiit with its human kids.

It's true that there would be far fewer non-Nord races in Skyrim as it's the Nord homeland, but it also stands to reason that if there are any Khajiit, Argonians, Dunmer, Bosmer, or Orcs in Skyrim, there will be orphans of those races to be adopted. There is a civil war going on, after all, along with dragons rauaging the countryside.

I seriously doubt they add beast children, which svcks because I don't think I have ever played a race other than Argonian.

So yeah....this is going to be a strange life for the (likely) Nord adoptee. Father is an Argonian, Mother is a Dunmer

I can think of a couple of reasons Beth. would not include Khajiit children: Firstly, they would terrorize their less nimble and more slow-witted Nord schoolmates... lunches would be taken, young Helgas and Svens would be snookered out of all their shinier marbles, scratches would require much poly-sporin/Dettol. Secondly, the amount of shop-lifting they'd commit would cause quest-breaking bugs.... "Why yes, I have a aluminium Dragon-claw for your radiant quest... wait a minute, it was just there... dammit, Kharjo Jr. must have nicked it when he was in here."

Objectively speaking, it's at least feasible that there are no Khajiit cubs (I KNOW, I want them too). Ditto with some other races. But I have to say that it seems unrealistic that there aren't any Dunmer kids in the Gray Quarter or Riften, or Argonians in the same places. Both cities have large populations of both races, who live there (instead of travelling, like Khajiit do), so it seems natural that they would have kids.

In the immortal words of Gimli: "They spring out of holes in the ground."

Who needs kids :P

This is a problem all around.

The no intermarriage thing with Khajiit and wood elves is more than an oversight, especially when you see a wood elf in Riften explicity married to a human. (In fact, there is also an example of a high elf married to a human and historical examples of marriages to dark elves in the lore, and, let's be honest, dark elves aren't that picky.) Even argonians are marriageable, which kills the 'no furries' excuse some have jokingly put out (sorry guys, but furries aren't only fur covered. And marrying a werewolf is allowed and that can get pretty hairy. Pun intended. :cool: )

It's even worse when you can't marry a character of your own race. (For example, there are NO redguard males who are eligible, which is ridiculous.) No Khajiit might be excusable if you're playing a Nord, but what about other races? No intermarriage, really? Hm. The only way to justify it is to say that every other Khajiit is extremely attached to their religion and refuse to be married by Maramal -- same for wood elves. But argonians also have their own religion and marriage ceremonies, so...what gives?

The only rationalization I can think of is that Khajiit (along with the wood and high elves with one -- count it, ONE -- exception) are part of the Dominion and refuse to marry those who aren't part of it. But that isn't given in game, so it all amounts to a big fat gap in the lore.

I lol'd, but seriously, I'm sure somewhere along the lines a cub could get lost, bandits, raiders, dragon attacks, the cold. I once found Karjo and friends near Dawnstar getting attacked by a dragon during a blizzard, they all ran off into the woods to attack it. Perfect time for the kids to go missing. Oh, and also, HI BORN2BEAGATOR!

I'm an Argonian. I don't want little white kids running around my house. I want Lizard children. Make it happen Beth :stare:

It would almost be like having a pet cat!



That's terrible. I apologize my Khajiit brethren. :(

Well you say that, but the game info for Hearthfire does state that you can give your kids a pet, so if they add kittens, problem solved!

I'm also hoping for other race kids, why would my Dunmer and Jenessa want to adopt a Nord kid? Probably bunch of Dunmer kids in Morrowind who are homeless.

You would think that beth would ask themselves that question. We will see if they have children of other races.

If they don't give us Khajiit kids, I'm just going to wait until it comes out on PC, hop on my roommates laptop and just spawn a generic Khajiit and reduce their size and pretend I have a cub.
