Guest Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 Personally I like the Khajiit, me having a marksman bias and an affinity for the underdog and the underground in everything. Other than that they look pretty cool for feline bipeds =D And on the Dunmer issue.....well the Dunmer aren’t necessarily my favorite, they claim to be of the highest rank of race. But they couldn’t help being caved in by an Imperialistic enemy because of their nearly non existent military. And the fact that they enslave races created by a god they worship, those are some of the reasons I don’t respect them too much....at least the Tsaesci enslave only the Goblin's. oh and marcel adam, Khajiit mods There’s a link to a site showcasing mods for beast races. Like Leg bracers and armors and such. This should be satisfactory I hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favourite race is a toss up between orcs and nords...but mainly nords for now. (Until I see what orcs look like in Oblivion.) I am fascinated by the aggressive way of nordic life. Read the Morrowind book "Children of the Sky" for some shocking insights into how dangerous the really powerful nords are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuaDragonheart Posted October 21, 2005 Share Posted October 21, 2005 Yeah, "tongues." *shudders* And killing people by yelling at them... actually, that reminds me of my ex. Maybe that's not so unbelievable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each house had it's own army, and see those fortresses dotted around? Those were for their army, read "Poison Song", it'll tell you more on all that. 2) Khajjiti cannot have been created by Whom they claim created them. Azura does not have the capacity to create, She's a Daedra, Daedra can only change things, not create them. Plus: That book that claims such a thing isn't necessarily telling the truth when it claims that the Khajjiti are the product of Azura, could easily be lies. Just thought I'd correct you on those points. :D And now, I'll go on to say why Argonians and khajiit's were not my choice. In Morrowind, the Form of both races was changed to be that of bow-legged, and to me, that made them feel inferior to me, probably only because that was added on top of the whole Slave/Inferior thing. But it really did portray them as Inferior...perhaps unintentionally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would disagree strongly with such an assertion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would disagree strongly with such an assertion.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>you're right, I don't mean to. What I really tried to say was that the Bow legged-ness, and THUS the lack of ability to wear boots and full helms etc, adds to the original "beast-race-inferior" feel that was given off by Dunmer in the game, thus making them feel like a VERY inferior race. And do please try not to string it to real life, what I think in terms of Real life and what I think of terms of gaming feel are two completely different things. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are special beast-race boots in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I never said that I never liked the beast races, it just that I'm not one to play the underdog, I think i might play A khajjit in OB, they're kinda cute!

Lycan Posted October 27, 2005 Author Share Posted October 27, 2005 Well I have played only ONE race in Morrowind - Argonians.I did't even try to play an another race. PS I think, that this topic is starting to turn into "Argonians and Khajits-the least popular?" topic.And I like that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
