Best Races in The Elder Scroll V: Skyrim

Being a tall muscular blonde haired blued eyed man, I find I more closely relate to them, so it's easier for role playing. Not to mention, but I do also enjoy khajiit, Breton, dark elf, redguard, Orc, and wood elf.

Being a Nord is cool,but never join Stormcloaks, if you played the game pretty well and knows the lore, you will find out that Imperial Legion is the better side, especially for an united Tamriel, for the future of Tamriel.Or else the High elves will again dominate over humans.

Nords are the best. I think khajiit actually suck, they're powers and abilities are useless and I think playing as a thief/assassin is kinda boring

I always make my Nords have brown hair and green eyes, so they look really weird being from the north.

Khajiit are literally the best race. They start out with the highest thief skills like sneak, pickpocket, and lockpicking and also have high one handed armour. And plus, they just looks badass. I mean, who doesn't want to be an awesome warrior cat?

Nothing describes "fury" better than a Khajiit racing around the battlefield, faster than the enemy can swing, and nothing brings terror more than a Khajiit's fangs speeding from the dark towards you!

There's just something so awesome about being a 6ft talking (excuse my racism) cat, which has the best accent ever!
To bad guards are racist towards Khajiits! I've probably got bounties simply because I punched a guard after he called me a "Cat".

I like the Khajiits more because they're cats than their stats and stuff, but they still know how to chop heads. It's rather fun going around looking all dainty and skinny and stuff then BAM - one hit headchop kill. Fear me. Meow.

The Orsimer are a proud race of mer that totally are awesome and should be #1 because they are the best warriors of Tamriel by far. They are uniquely gifted in combat unlike all the other mer races and make for a good aesthetic character when choosing between stormcloaks or imperials. It's so fun to pretend to be a barbarian since that's what skyrim is all about. Magic is pathetic but strength is what makes you live in the cold harsh land of skyrim.

I think that the Orc should be #1 because they are great at blacksmithing and share some of the greatest armor across Skyrim and Tamriel. The Orcs also have some of the coolest strongholds across the land. The Orcs are also the greatest hunters in Tamriel. Orcs are great with all weapon types and can rock your world in heavy armor. Orcs are definitely the master race.

Orcs are, in my opinion, the greatest warriors in all of Tamriel. They may not be great mages, cunning thieves, or deadly assassins, but they are, however, the most deadly race to ever wield a weapon!

Fighting is what you will do a lot of in this game and what good is an assassin going to do to the World Eater Alduin himself. You need a warrior for this job and Orcs are capable of taking down any opponent

They are most best character for any any job they can make it look badass being a nightingale instead of the gay nords.

Made the best illusion/stealth ninja character with a Breton. Best in my book.

I think Bretons are cool cause they are magic. Like magic magic.

The best, for everything.

Argonians are the most deadly killers. Black marsh was the only province in tamriel that was not annexed by Tiber Septim and the Empire. The Shadow scales are the most deadly assassins for the Dark Brotherhood, and the hyst trees are the source of power for black marsh.

Mine is red and blacks and sounds like a snake... Plus its almost impossible to turn into a vampire and ruin the game... Argonians are the best full stop!

The unlimited time underwater really helps when you are trying to get away or hide. Very helpful ability to have.

It has a very unique appearance. I also like argonian's power, it 's really useful when you're on the verge of death

Redgaurds are gifted talented warriors of hammerfell, fantastic with a bow as well as a mace, dual wielded of coarse. Also a fun character to interact with such as Iran or saadia!

Resisted the thalmor after the empire abandoned them, pretty badass!

By far imperials are a good mix of anything you want. On the downside, they are pretty pathetic compared to other races just because they have no good particular useful talent. Also it's not fun to be pressured into joining the imperials because you're an imperial

The imperial has the best variety of being both a mage and a warrior and to pair it with imperial luck with finding extra gold, this has my vote for favorite class in the game alongside Breton.

Imperials are all around so if they became level 100 would mean they are perfect beings. Spoilers! Found out that dragonborn is nord, cyrodil champion is imperial, and nerevarine is dark elf! So happy my main guy for each game was so accurate

Useful for people who just want to settle down with a nice home. Because imperial luck skill gets you WAY more gold.

Dark elf is the best because it gives better skill to destruction and using destruction magic is more fun than using swords.

Who's more badass than somebody that does not care about any other race and say it their faces?

Dunmer are the best race easy! They are the last race left (along with Khajiit) that reside to Masser after Nirn is destroyed and everyone is wiped out.

Dark elves are malevolent when they want to be, but also exhibit a suttle elegance.

I always like to play an archer or a ranger or something with a bow. So generally, I'd go wood elf before anything.

Plus Wood elves are the finest archers ever made.

I am usually the archer in RPG games, so wood elves are my first choice. Plus they have 50% disease resistance.

Wood elfs are the best race in skyrim because there the best at archery, and 2nd in sneak, lock picking, and pickpocketing. They are also the second best assasins in skyrim. So if you want a assasin or thief you should choose wood elfs.

I have always been and always will be a wood elf in my own RPG world of the elder scrolls.

They're too short

Alex is the master Race. More specifically Alex Robinson.

I love internet so much.

Fattest race ever
