Have you encountered any Mixed Race characters? I've only see a boy in Dragon Bridge who was half redguard and half nord or breton.

BQ: would you like to see the ability to play as mixed race characters in the next Elder Scrolls?

I myself have always wanted to play as a Half Imperial/ Half Redguard.

My character Leksandr is one quarter Imperial. In my imagination. :c

Yeah, my character is half Breton (maternal), half Redguard (paternal). Which I guess technically makes her triracial, because of the Breton point of mixed human and Altmer ancestry. I know there are also other instances of dual-race characters, I believe one of the children in Solitude has an Imperial father and Nord mother. Though I could be recalling that incorrectly. I know I have seen it though!

I remember a half-orc in Oblivion, but I do want some half and half races. However that could get difficult for the beast races.

I thought they made it where there is no "true" mixed race, as the child would just take the physical traits of the mother.

On the road south of Dragon Bridge I found a wagon that had been attacked. There was a dead redguard woman who had a journal on her. It said that her and her husband had been on their way to whiterun. There was also a dead nord male near the wagon. Possibly his parents. Not sure if thats really on topic, just thought it was interesting.

They could just not make it an option for Khajit and Argonians. Would suck but what could you do?

There's a Nord/Redguard couple in Dawnstar, the wife being pregnant. I believe Bolli is married to an elf as well, though they don't have any kids as of yet.

When I'm allowed to in a game, I always play a half Elf / half Human, given the fact that I'm not totally human in real life.

But then the lore police will come screaming in to announce that Bretons are the half-elves of Elder Scroll lore!

Actually, I agree with you. I think half races would be awesome. I made half-elf and half-orc races for Oblivion and people could not resist telling me about Bretons as if I didn't know already and simply wanted something a little more straightforward than a human with elven ancestry. Nobody cared about the half orcs. Guess they're not popular enough to criticize.

I once made a redguard warrior and accidently made him the lightest shade possible so I could see his facial features better, and I forgot to turn it back. I said his mother was imperial.
