Race selection help : V

» Sat Jul 21, 2012 4:40 pm

I came looking for help on which race to choose, based on which is most like me. If you don't wish to help, you don't have to read this stuff.

Okay, so I'm pretty short for my age, I'm Australian, I'm somewhat intelligent and I like nature. Um... I have slightly tanned skin. People always say that my face is usually expressionless, and sometimes intimidating. Also, I have a very bad temper, but I'm usually calm and quiet.

If you guys can help me, thank you.

Breton.

You should play Lord of the Rings since they have the HOBBIT race.

Definitely a Breton. Maybe an Imperial but that may be a bit of a stretch.
You could say (rp purposes if you wish) that you're a breton with blood of the Imperial and place race of mer here (likely Bosmer).

I say... Argonian.

Intelligent and like nature? Slightly dark skin? Perhaps a Bosmer or Breton.

Sounds like an Argonian to me >.>

I have to say Bosmer.

Not dark skin. Just a slight tan. Still pretty pale.

I say... Argonian.

Me to!

I'm gonna try a detailed answer :
- Australian -> deserts/outback = Khajiit/Dunmer
- Pretty Intelligent and likes nature = Bosmer
- Expressionless sometimes intimidating = Argonian
- Bad temper/calm and quiet = I dunno

but that bad temper part is definitely Dunmer

Oh dear, now I have too many options.

Ask away.

I'm also considering Dunmer now, so my primary options are Bosmer, Dunmer, Argonian, or Breton. I really can't decide, haha.

What playstyle do you prefer? Spellsword, Archer, Sneaky sneak, Brute warrior?

Close-quarters sneaky. Dual-swords type of thing.

Dunmer would fit the expressionless/intimidating part a bit and the dark skin (if you wanted to go that dark).
Argonian would fit the nature and expressionless/intimidating and be outdoorsy.
Breton would fit the intelligence, dark skin, (to an extent) expressionless.

As for combat I'd say that's either Argonian or Breton. Dunmer (by stereotype) is more magic based like the other elves.

Why, that was my Argonian's initial playstyle :biggrin:

I say you can be an Argonian if you prefer/don't care to play as the least human race, or Breton if you wish to be more human.

What build do you plan on useing?

» Sat Jul 21, 2012 2:00 pm

Oh dear, now I have too many options.

If all else fails, just role a Nord and go headbutt your way through the world. And name it Conan for good measure.
