My first character was a Dunmer. I heard the young lady Dunmer are *ahem* promiscuous.
High elf, the master race. They start with the most magicka and have the best racial trait, highborn. I go for high elf Battlemage on my first character in elder scrolls games. The differences in starting skill levels is small and largely irrelevant as a bit of levelling will get you where you want to go in no time. Also high elves are the tallest and height affects your jumping, running speed and damage output. So let's recap shall we?
High Elves:
Can run the fastest
Can jump the highest
Have the highest damage output (melee)
Have the most magicka
Regenerate magicka the fastest
Master race + Sword, shield, heavy armour, destruction, restoration (Battlemage) = Winning, fact.
What race did you start your game with?
Being a noob at The Elder Scrolls and PC games in general, I chose to be a Breton because I wanted to be a mage and I thought that the Breton would be a good choice because I thought elves were ugly and I still think that High Elves are ugly.
