Xbox 360 Is it possible to make your character taller?

[Lytro]

I was wondering if it is possible to make your character taller, since I do enjoy playing as a breton but I just hate being shorter than everyone else. I saw some pictures of a high elf being taller than another high elf because of the necromage perk and being a vampire. I was wondering if this actually works, if not, is it actually possible to make yourself taller. Also if the vampire thing does work, does getting rid of vampirism revert to your original height.

I'm pretty sure every race (except High Elf) is the same height, if not, I don't know lol. But no, it is impossible to magically grow taller, whether it's at the start of the game, or some amazing stranger gives you a Spell Tome and Conjures you taller. Other than that, no. (Sorry for my English for it's not my first language)

Necromage perk? And I don't know if you can grow in skyrim. I know, I'm a high elf but im shorter than every other high elf! I don't understand why!

I think this is some kind of glitch. I had that happen when my high elf entered the thalmor embassy and he was alot shorter than the guards, but when I reloaded my save he was the same height.

Oh ok, I've been going in and out of the embassy so I may be getting affected by this glitch

The only races that have different heights are Bretons and Altmer. I -think- wood elves might be a bit shorter but I'm not sure. They are still taller then Bretons I think. I enjoy a shorter race, makes me feel better about my own height

I always thought if you go to the lady in the Ragged Flagon and you change your appearance and make yourself fatter (or lighter) you get taller or smaller?

All race heights are fixed. If you have the PC version you can change the height scale for an entire race with the creation kit, but you can't do it specifically for your character. On game consoles you can't do anything to affect your height other than select a race with a higher height scale.

I'm pretty sure every race (except High Elf) is the same heigh...

They aren't. The order from talllest to shortest (height scale modifier in parenthesis) is:

Altmer (1.08)
Orsimer (1.045)
Nord (1.03)
Argonian males (1.01)
Redguard males (1.005)
Argonian and Bosmer females, Breton males, Dunmer, Imperial, Khajiit male, Redguard females (1.00)
Bosmer males (0.98)
Breton and Khajiit females (0.95)

I saw some pictures of a high elf being taller than another high elf because of the necromage perk and being a vampire...

It's a glitch. Necromage doesn't affect height. The vampire version of a race is a different race. It's possible that the racial height modifier is being applied to the character's current height when the character becomes a vampire (i.e. 1.08 x 1.08 = 1.1664). I haven't tested it but based on anecdotes from other players it doesn't appear to be consistent for all players.

Well to answer your question in a plain and simple form, NO you cant change the height of your character.

If your playing on a PC then you can set.Playerscale to increase your chracter's height to any size you want, I Use an Imperial who is An Inch taller than a Nord and almost 8 feet tall in Vampire Lord Form

I Like the Empire but I also respect the Thalmor, No Man can become a god, No ELF can become a god either, with the Exception of the Champion of Cyrod...
