We all have one. something in skyrim that whenever you see one you say " wow, i haven't seen one of those in awhile". whats yours? Mine are wispmothers. the only 2 iv'e seen in my 130+ hours was one in the labrinthyian, and one in winterhold hold.

Argonian/Khajiit bandits. Only encountered them rarely, and when I do encounter them, the Argonains are always mages, and the Khajiits are always regular bandits. I've only encountered a grand total of three Argonian bandits over my entire Skyrim career. One was a Silver Hand, one was a Blood Horker, and one was a Bandit Chief.

Wisp mothers, spriggans, slaughter fish, mudcrabs. They have made mudcrabs rare compared to oblivion

Well seeing as most of Skyrim is filled with Nords I'd have to say the rarest thing is a brain. On a more fame related note I've never been attacked by an Altmer bandit (not including the Thalmor), I have encountered every other type of race as bandit along my travels whether as part of a larger group of bandits or as a lone assailant.

I haven't seen a Dark Brotherhood Assassin trying to kill me, I only saw once!

A follower that knows to walk around a boulder, instead of attempting to run through it? But seriously, Pearls/Small pearls are super rare.

wispmothers are very rare, and also regular trolls i have encountered 4 of them since i bought the game(for some reasons it seems that frost trolls are more common).

it's a...well, you know.

Yep, I've never seen a non-frost troll.

Strangely enough, the first bandit my new Orc character ran into was a Khajiit. My level 46 Imperial hasn't run into one yet.

Chaurus Reapers above ground. Seen only one ever in 100s and 100s of hrs of gameplay....in fact it was only the other day.

I was travelling due south from Solitude, it was late afternoon/early summer's evening with plenty of daylight left. Suddenly the dramatic/dangerous battle alert music starts. I scan the skies for a dragon, none to be seen.....then that horrible `ccckkkkkk` sound is heard, and I look down to see this monstrosity chewing on my leg....

Made me jump a mile irl.

I hate those vile creatures. Superb job on making the Chaurus as creepy as possible Bethesda.....EDIT: In fact, almost as creepy as a herd of Belethor.....*shudder*

Werewolves in the wild, never ever seen one.
EVER.

It's an odd world when mammoths falling out of the sky are more common than the items listed here.

I agree about chaurus reapers: I have only seen one above ground, in the swamps near Ustengrav.

Mine isn't as rare as some mentioned above. But when you're slogging through a cavern or dungeon, etc., going down this passage, opening that door. Yeah, we've all been there. And then you step out on some landing, and behold! What lays before you is, well, beautiful. Numerous waterfalls, lush vegetation, excellent landscaping, no hostiles in sight. Yet. I'm like, "Wow. This is in here?!" So idyllic, always makes me wanna live there.

Werewolves, definitely. Never seen one out in the wild.

Yesterday was the first time I got attacked by a Khajiit assassin.

Pre-made Malachite/Ebony ingots. I only ever find them outside mines, but even then, they are usualy just ores.

"Fur Helmet". Can't craft it either... oh and that Centurion-looking Imperial Helm with the full face shield.

...and dangerous. I once panicked at a low level, and started eating random ingrediants in hope of find a healing item. I believe that an Imp Stool killed me. I now atribute that to our Mushroom Overlord.
