KA PO TUM FINALLY KILL TSAECI AND COME INVADE SKYRIM!!!!

EXCITEMENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would love to actualy see Tang Mo armor, I think something based off that would be awesome.

Also I wonder if the Tang Mo are like Khajiit, like in Skyrim there mountain cats, and in Oblivion they reside with Chestar The Cheatah.

They're cool but I feel the tail... err... situation, would make them un-implement-able.(?)

A good conflict between Argonians and Tsaeci!

Also, random thought:

If they add more beast races, they can maybe add a beast race specific faction? Like an alliance or something? Huh, huh?

If they add any Akavir races they need a Akavir faction.

Like a Akavir embassy..though they would have to write in some Lore to make the Akavir being in Tamriel canon or explaining why the people of Tamriel are allowed in the Akavir lands.

More races? A.K.A. = more options. When have more options ever been a bad idea?

bad idea imo

I would love to see Snow Elf as a playable race. :] So great idea.

It depends whether or not these option will make any sense, of course if they are put into the game Im sure BS will make sure it does make sense.

I always presumed it was the same options for every game, and it would always be that way. Except Redguard, of course.

it has been, but it would be nice to bring a old race back from extinction and integrate it or bring in some other race from somewhere. though no one said that they are just going to pop in. it will take some lining up and bridging before said race becomes playable.

There would have to be a really good reason man and mer to be allowed on Aravik.

No, I meant if they invade, then maybe Tang'mo, Argonians, and Kha'jiit form some kind of alliance. Perhaps the Argonians and Kha'jiits are the main ones who accept the Tang'mo and they offer them some protection and assistance through a guild. Then maybe we can finally have some important beast characters.

The only option I can see is even slightly possible would be the monkey people from Summerset Isles, but yeah, that's not a very appealing option. Besides, imagine the Graybeards say "Behold, the gorilla Dovahkiin!". It would be pretty stupid really.

Sure, there are many other races on other continents, but that would kind of ruin the story...

And "behold, Cat/lizard man Dovahkiin" is better?

Behold : the monkey Dovakhiin. From now on he shall be called "Chimpules"

I don't see much appeal in the gorilla people either. They're not even truly humanoid. But the tang'mo have limbs and stuff like everyone else, making them easily implementable (word?).

Power Idea: Jump twice as high and move twice as fast for 30 seconds? Since they're monkeys? May be game breaking though idk..

Debatable, if the new race/races had an entirely different entrance into Skyrim as oppose to the current one it could work I guess, but in many ways the game, from a racial point of view is fine, I personally aren't starting the game again, been playing the same character since release and believe it or not have only explored just over half the map, I haven't fast travelled once and never will.

» Fri Nov 16, 2012 9:33 pm

Thats a great idea. Ingenius.

or a mixture of both would be awesome for Tsaesci, but unfortunatelly I don't see it happening in this game.. :/

And you would mind if you saw some sort of invasion/immigration of races into Skyrim?

Even if you don't start a new character, I think a big immigration might spice up the game a lot and make the world feel very rich.

Also, yeah it might make sense for an alternate ending. Why not, it's DLC right? Maybe... you come on a boat to Skyrim full of immigrants... and then Stormcloaks ambush you all when you come out... then some of the other immigrants die but you make it out... and someone tells you to flee to Whiterun! Not sure how to include Alduin, as this would probably take place in one of the Northern cities....

if they do add in new races, it will definitely not be in skyrim, it will be in the next at the very least.
