    What race are you in Skyrim?

    I have 2 characters, one of them being a Nord and the other being a Bosmer. I had quite a bit of fun customizing the appearance of my characters.

    My 2 characters are Nord and Argonian. I prefer my Nord characters better, he's a high level and more experienced. I usually just use the Argonian character now for causing mayhem.

    For my first playthrough of the game, I decided to play as a Nord but for my second playthrough, I think I will be either of the Elf races or a Argonian.

    I have two main toons one is a high elf that focuses on destruction (lightning) and the other is a Nightingale which is an archer.

    I love playing as an Orc. I usually play through the game with some sort of two handed weapon and heavy armor. I find it to be a lot of fun ripping through enemies with one swing.

    In my first play though, I played as a Nord and the second time I played it I was an Orc.

    A wood elf, forever and always. Even in the ESO beta ;)
    I just don't feel right about being any other race. Although I do have a kajiit named Buttlick..

    I always play Nord or Imperial. I've always been tempted to play a Khajiit or Argonian but I find it harder to "imprint" myself on my character when I'm playing a non-human and my imagination doesn't really take off as much. Skyrim heavily relies on your imagination to enhance the experience, and I don't like making tons of throwaway characters.

    I find it hard to customize the non-human races anyway. They all look the same to me. lol

    I have the exact opposite problem. If i'm playing a human character it kind of feels too real for me and I can't enjoy it. That being said, my first character was a breton.

    My first and favorite race will always be argonians. They have an amazing backstory behind their culture and I can't wait to be able to really explore the lore surrounding them in depth in ESO. I also enjoy Nords and Orcs equally!

    I have this predisposition to play only Nord since I am somewhat of their (implied) cultural background, though I really enjoy the Argonian I have as well.

    To be truthful, I'm really generic when it comes to characters. I'm almost always a Nord because I enjoy running around hacking whatever is in my pass. I can see the appeal with shooting the bow or casting spells, but I enjoy running up on a dragon or a mini boss and smashing him face to face as opposed to taking a stealthy approach

    I am the same I usually don't mess with to much I just usually change the hair and maybe add some kind of facial hair and that's it.

    I'm usually a very boring person when it comes to Elder Scrolls games. I usually either pick a breton or a nord. Mostly Breton though because of the magic skills. I love being a mage.

    Nord, I always go with human race and the Nord is very familiar to the barbarian class so I picked Nord for a melee character.

    I play a Nord but I'm playing on going with Argonian with my next character. I think I will start over next week but I really don't like going through all the quests again. I just want to clear out my entire inventory and skill set and choose a different character in this part of the game. But I don't think that's possible?

    Currently, I am an Orc. I had always been a nord or imperial, but when I started a new game recently I decided to be an orc. I have to say I like it. Its has its perks over being a nord or imperial.

    I only played the game with a Nord. They seem the most fitting for the main character so I picked them. The game was kidna fun but I have to say I was a little bit underwhelmed by it!

    I made various toons, but the one I stuck playing with was a Khajiit. I couldn't help it. As you can see for my avatar, I am partial to cats. CATS!

    They are good for stealth survivability and has bonuses to opening locks and pick pocket. Though I rarely use pick pocket, fearing that the entire town comes down on my furry butt.

    I have one of each race! I've got the most hours on my first character, which was an Imperial. I generally like Imperials in Elder Scrolls games for their excellent speechcraft skills.
