Question re RedGuards

[Daelon DuLac]

May I inquire as to why Redguards are the only race available that starts the game preset with "dirt" on them (sometimes more than 1/2 the bar!).

It just strikes me as particularly racist by the developers (and I don't mean in game terms).

Of course it does give a whole new meaning to the term "Dirty Redguard" that I have seen bandied around on these forums.

Just a thought.

I think you're correct in your deduction.

There are several presets for every race and several of them have dirt. Are you only looking at the first preset for each race?

Yes. I only noticed because I just created my Sheba (the Hallie Berry lookalike) and had to take all the dirt off of her (I never use the presets - most of them just look goofy).

They are the most naturally talented warriors in all of Tamriel. It would only be natural that they would collect some dirt. I also agree with Nighthiker77 though.

That's actually a good point. As I said, I don't even look at the presets other than the default most of time since I like to customize. I was just wondering.

I honestly could never play as a preset. It removes me from the game. If I have a character that I made, I feel proud to have made that character and it's more personal, besides 99% of the presets are just... terrible.

Skyrim is racist, them Nords always have been. Never really were one for outsiders.
