  With the Exotic Races Event now in full swing in Character Building, I thought it would be interesting to have a poll based around the topic.

  So this week we are asking: If Bethesda were to add a new playable race to Elder Scrolls VI then which would you like to see?

  Yes, we've had this poll before (in a slightly differently phrased question) but no matter - it will be interesting to see what people are thinking now. So vote in the poll (you can only choose ONE) and tell us your reasons below.

  Imga Naga Maormer and the Akaviri races make the most sense in my eyes.

  Mazken or Aurreal. Chicks are hot.

  Seriously, though, I cannot imagine playing as an Imga and taking it seriously or getting all Marukh about stuff. Ayleids are pretty sinister feathery, Chimer never existed in my eyes, Dwemer I loathe, the Ka Po' Tun get me all Tosh Raka'd, the Tsaesci are too ambiguous even for me, the Sload are Lovecraftian horrors and Lilmothings are too foxy.

  I reckon I'd keep it simple. Nedes for the win.

  I have to give my vote to the Sloads here. There's not that much Lore around them and their culture, and it would be nice to know more about them.

  The Akaviri Races would be a close second, for the same reasons.

  Ayleids, probably. They seem like an elite, "uber" race. And I like playing the "uber"

  Because I can't seem to ever give a straight answer to anything, my first reaction is that if we're talking about something happening at a much earlier time in history, then I lean toward Dwemer because I think it'd be kinda cool to play a highly advanced race and imagine the crafting options would be amazing. Phil will hate that answer, but I don't even care. 

  I also would not mind a fierce Kamal playthrough... Kothringi would be cool too, I think. But ask me in a week and I might feel completely different.

  the Dwemer are long gone. they would have to pull something out of their But to make a reason that they are back.

  I picked the Ka Po'Tun

  I picked the Tang Mo! This was a really hard decision. x.x My heart says Maormer, Lilmothiit, Kamal, Ka Po'Tun and Tsaesci too!

  Maormer though. Sea elves! I know so little about the Kamal, that I'd love to see them become a playable race as well.

  Their is Yagrum Baggarn, the last Dwemer. He was in another dimension or something when his race vanished. Maybe they were on the moon, like in that mod

  Ayleids, Dwemer, maybe Chimer somehow, Kamal, Lilmoth, or maye Tsacei.
