We are the Thalmor.

You will be exterminated.

Resistance is futile.

Argonians and their extremely toxic homeland, Black Marsh says Hi! Have fun invading a swamp filled with diseases and parasites lethal to all non-Argonians. Also, underwater breathing. Forever. :cool:

If you want to play as a thalmor agent, don't choose a side in the war. Help them with quests involving eradicating Talos worship. Every now and then pick off members of the two military camps.

Personally, I like the Argonians...despite what the other Thalmor/Thalmor-sympathizers may think. The Orcs and the Khajiit are the only beast races (I consider the Orcs to be beasts) that I can't stand.

I think I might have done the only quest that helps Thalmor. :/ I can't do the Civil War questline this playthrough anyway, I joined the Stormcloaks (as part of my RP as a Thalmor saboteur) and Galmar/Ulfric glitched up and attack on sight for no reason whatsoever.

I think I found the first Altmer besides Mankar that I like. You're always welcomed to Black Marsh for some Argonian Ale and freshly caught lunch. :cool:

Unfortunate. Someone must have blown your cover. Just make sure neither side steamrolls the other and all will be ok.

Mer are far superior to Man. I was very disappointed that you couldn't join the future rulers of all Nirn.

While I'm skeptical about their ALLEGED end-of-the-world plans, I think Elves deserve to stomp on a human face for a change.
"For a change"? You know about the whole Ayleid thing, right?

And the Night of Tears? The Nords didn't just attack the poor indigenous Falmer.

Seriously. How does anyone even consider either of these sides are that right, when their foundation is built upon something like that?

They're entertaining and all, but still..

It's probably a big reason why I sympathize with Imperials. I end up playing as agnostically and racially neutral as possible.
This makes no sense. The empire was founded on the same idea.

In some ways http://www.gamesas.com/user/778690-alikah/ is right. He "was" made into a "God". That doesn't give the Thalmor the right to kill anyone and everything that doesn't agree with them. IMO Tiber should have been made into a Saint or something.

It would be interesting to see what races Thalmor supporters/haters play. I know there are some people that play Altmer that hate the Thalmor, but I wonder if most Thalmor supporters play Altmer? I really do think the fact that I play an Altmer mage as my primary dampens most of the annoyance I feel for them. Mostly my thoughts about the Thalmor are, "So you think that Altmer are superior, huh? Well I guess since I am Altmer and Dragonborn that makes me even more superior than you."
A lot of Mer have been shafted by the Thalmor, too. And when I say shafted, I mean cut down, even hunted in other lands for extermination. I'm betting the undoing of Thalmor rule will be a combination of outside opposition and resistance within their own borders. The Rising Threat seems to indicate that.

So I've been playing an Altmer who is anti-Thalmor, and none of the annoyance is dampened.

but

they ARE better than everyone else

on every level they have the right to claim superiority, cause they ARE actually a Superior race

I don't like it but its true :tongue:

what level? my Khajiit and argonian one hits those [censored]ers.

Also who was it that went into the oblivion gates fearlessly and FORCED them to shut them after the Oblivion Crisis?....

A thieving Khajiit cannot be superior to the might of the descendents of the Divines.

Your kind simply cannot fathom the "heretical" belief that we are creations of the Divines, and not actually Divines. Soon we will take the fight to THEIR land, THEIR people, THEIR blood! "The humans advance in to Summerset Isle is swift and brutal. In mere months, we have reached our destination - the last line of defense before the Altmer capital. We outnumber the Altmer ten to one! Wave upon wave of our infantry are unleashed upon them to clear the way for our armor. Once we have control of this battlefield, we will begin the march to Alinor. There, we will ensure that every sacrifice is repaid in blood."

Tuff Luck, I already am.

Altmer Thalmor or no more superior then any other race, they all come from the same species anyway.

Also my Khajiit has never stolen an item in his life, he's a warrior thats capable of decapitating ANY thalmor with one swift strike of Wuuthrad.

I have yet to notice them treating me much differently on my Altmer. Race doesn't factor into much for the most part, I've heard Khajiit caravaneers don't even acknowledge you being a Khajiit.

The only thing I've noticed is that the dialog option to have them tell you about their homeland is not available to a fellow Khajiit.

I personally hope for a DLC where you slaughter the Thalmor.

They're egotistical, genocidal, moronic dikes. Who has the dumbest plan ever. Which barely makes sense, and is damn near impossible to pull off. Hell, it IS impossible.

By the way, Altmer? Telvanni do everything you do. Just better. :3

You only exist because of Lorkhan. He is dead, the false god Talos has been removed from the pantheon, and the Empire he founded is dead.

You only exist because of the Stormcloaks who destroyed everything we saved for step two. No amount of intellect or superiority can hope to match sheer numbers.
