I've never had an Orc character or an Imperial, never found an appeal in either one especially with Imperials, they're just so normal and boring. On the other hand my main character has always been Altmer. I don't really like the Thalmor though, they still treat you like trash even if you are an Altmer, I'm guessing it's because you're not a "pure" Altmer or something like you weren't born in the Summerset Isle or you don't support them or whatever.

There are a few nice Altmer in game who are nice.

Viarmo the headmaster and that dude who owns the stable near Windhelm are fairly nice.

Though if anything its the kids who are annoying! I mean honestly!
"COME TO LICK MY FATHERS BOOTS AND NOT LOOK TOUGH SO I CAN FIGHT YOU!"

I downloaded the killable kids mod and left them in front of a giant with the freaking console.
Enjoy being the first brats in space!

Sorry.

I feel awful for Ulundil - his wife usually gets the murder knife from Calixto in Blood on the Ice.
And he's such a nice guy.

I thought for the longest time that he had the hots for my Dragonborn.

What is meant by virulent anti-imperial faction? Does it have something to do with the Hist?

The An-Xileel are the ruling faction in Black Marsh since just after the Oblivion crisis.  During the OC the Hist brought Argonians back to Black Marsh to fight the Oblivion gates that opened there, and the An-Xileel took over afterward.  They kicked the empire out and eventually made a purge (using the floating city Umbriel) not only of leftover non-Argonians, but also of Argonians who were considered too imperialized.

As for who's worse, Dunmer or Altmer:  I love Dunmer, but the Altmer never enslaved anybody until now.  Well, goblins, but I'm not sure that counts.

My Orc DB was the most enjoyable of all the playthroughs; had a blast with both the chosen personality and the personal story alterations I made with him. He did not take much guff from anyone, and used an Elder Scroll to alter time and aid the Imperials and save Whiterun instead of his previous dealings with the Stormcloaks (ie; went back to a previous Save). Terrific!

Nice Elhanan, makes me wish I was better at role-playing.

Not all high elfs are bad. This lady here have an voice made of honey and the beauty of an sculpture:

[Barbarossa2010]

Yeah, she's a merchant in Windhelm, right? Always liked her as well.

[Elhanan]

The smuggler? No thanks; prefer the Feralda in Winterhold, or Nenya in Falkreath as far as personalities.

How come High Elves get discriminated less in Windhelm then Dark Elves? One would think Nords would think Nords would dislike the Altmer more than the Dunmer.

[Joy Divison]

^^ All the Altmer in Windhelm are actually nice people.

Who says they are?  The Grey Quarter was probably created as a sovereign enclave like the colony on Solstheim, under the Decree of Monument.  So the Dunmer there didn't integrate as well as in other cities, and eventually the "live and let live" turned into mutual disdain and cries of oppression.

Any tips on how to level my Orc's block skill so that its consistent with lore. He is an older Orc, so maybe he bashes more often than actually defends..?

[mybudgee]

Oh he has a strong sense of morality & mercy for an Orc, and is somewhat jaded about the Imperials plight. He uses orc or dog followers and occasionally nords. Prefers to travel alone though, and likes maces because he feels blades need to be sharpened too often

I don't know, maybe the Dunmer complain more then?

Mudcrabs or console....

[mybudgee]

Mudcrabs. Yes... Yes

I really like her birds.

Unfortunately the random hostility bug seems to have spread. Now my Khajiti was suddenly attacked. Yes, she's a criminal, and a vampire, but she has no bounty on her head and she is only in... the third stage of vampirism, I believe. And Dawnguard removed the hostility for stage 4 vampires anyway, so that shouldn't be it. Annoying.

What level  is he?

[Bfler]

A shield with an Orc is waste. They are designed for offensive combat, so either use dual-wield or a two-handed weapon.

Btw here a pic of my Orcish main-PC:

If you're a Stormcloak, find yourself an Imperial camp, kill all the lower levels off and then fight with the chief of the camp. He's unkillable, so he's pretty much the perfect sparring partner. Bash him to your heart's content, and he'll continue to get right back up.  Don't bring a companion though, they will siphon off the XP available to you.

Of course, if you're an Imperial, you can do the same to Stormcloak camps as well...I just don't know why anyone would ever want to be an Imperial.

Well with a block skill of 100, you can unlock Shield Charge. It'd be difficult to get much more offensive than that. And at level 50 with a filled Block tree, you are pretty much outright killing everything but boss level creatures with a Shield Bash.  But, eh, to each his own.

EDIT: Oh, Fountain Guard Amor mod. I approve.

Orcs look so awesome in Skyrim.

@ Splinter Cell: Complaining is a Dunmer national pastime.
