It really doesn't matter. Skyrim and Elder Scrolls games in general place very little emphasis on what you are at the beginning of the game, and a lot more on who you end up being. Despite races like Bosmer, Argonians and Furries having a bit of an easier time as an assassin at game start, long term their benefits will avail you very little.

 

I've had a blast playing as Nord and Orc rogues & mages, despite them being 'warrior' races so just think of a cool backstory and pick a character look you enjoy the most.

For lore I'd go with a dark elf or khajiit. But otherwise, it really doesn't matter

[Kazuya482]

Take your pick, Olligarchy pretty much nailed it. Personally, I find intentional contradictions in race to class mixing to be fulfilling. Brief example being that in lore, a small number of some of the most insanely powerful mages have been races not really closely tied to magic, namely Zurin Arctus an Imperial, and Shalidor who was a Nord.

if you're one of those nexus-idiots, then usual the preferred character would be a female nord [or breton] with incredibly skimpy armor

[forskyrimmods]

An argoanian , role play as a shadowscale ;) male or female is fine.

[ibldedibble]

Male wood elf. Just make sure to always eat your victims afterwards to stay true to the Green Pact.

 

(Otherwise forskyrimmods hit the nail on the head. Shadowscales are the best.)

[ArhibaldWest]

Whichever you want. I'd prefer Dunmer.

[Moraelin]

High ranking members of the Dark Brotherhood in the past included pretty literally all races. E.g., they had an Imperial Night Mother (Severa Magia), a Breton Speaker (Mathieu Bellamont), etc.

If You think I'm a "nexus idiot" then I have to say that's incorrect I have my char's wearing full body of the sovereign armor and the Nordic hunter etc. I don't really care for the "Show more skin armors" anyways.
