I chose Altmer, because that is the race I usually play. However, my Nord RP has gone the longest - Level 58 so far. My top 5 would be:
1. Altmer
2. Nord
3. Bosmer
4a. Dunmer
4b. Orc
 
I have a question. I know that I have a bias towards Bretons which is probably undeserved. I have been thinking about a "Cleric" build for some time now and believe that, since it really doesn't matter if a cleric is attractive at all, whether, besides their innate magic resistance and dragonskin abilities, if there would be any other RP justifications to make the cleric a Breton. I hope that a short, dumpy, unattractive dude might get me over my bias. :)
 
When I started back up I tried a imperial hunter. But I couldn't stand the story line and imperials in general. Nord ftw. Talos be with you.

And you like the Stormcloaks? Okay, so maybe it's not fair to make that assumption, but as opposed to the Imperials? Of course, why would hunter give a flyin' fig about the "ever so cultured" imperials anyhow.

Oddly enough,I swapped back and forth so many times,I just stopped caring.Now I'm a Stormcloak through and through.

OH! So a Nord that went to Clown College. Cool! I have to admit that I do like the Stormcloak Officers armor though. It's edgy. :)

It is.One of the main reasons I joined them was for the armour.That and both Ulfric and Galmar are funny at points whereas Tullius is mostly an old bore.

Agree. My girl Blackthorne likes to parade around Windhelm in the clothes she took off Ulfric's body when she killed him. I betcha she must get some funny looks.
 
Plus it's hard in my opinion to start a nice rp as a imperial when they almost killed you for no reason...

Actually, I don't find it that hard to do. I was, after all, with a group of enemies to the Imperials and in association with Ulfric Stormcloak, after all, even if it was accidental. As I usual have an extensive backstory for my characters, I can usually justify why I was even there (be it accident or not) and, since my characters are rarely straight forward hero's, being branded a criminal is not a big issue.

I almost purely base my RP on what happens after Helgen. Listening to conversations, justifications, bigotry, idiocy and the general environment inevitably shape my characters.

Don't get me wrong, I do occassionally play on the Stormcloak side, but usually I just ignore the whole mess as my characters really wouldn't care one way or another.
 
Yea I used to just act like helgan never even happened once I get out. I don't usually get to deep in my rp. Usually just something basic like I've been on my own as a child and raised myself. Found a bow and trained myself and used it to survive. A survival Hunter type.

Since I can't ignore it, I try to always incorporate Helgen in to my rp. I have a lot of difficulty playing an "uncivilized" sort of character so usually end up with wealthy spell swords dressed to the 9's. No savage wear for me. Funny, for "civilized" folks, I usually end up a werewolf though and you can't really get more uncivilized than a werewolf. :)
 
Dunmer, I adore the feeling of being one and having this sense of fighting to survive despite the world wanting you gone, their backstory is amazing (I can link a lore vid that makes learning about them easy if anyone wants it) and I find both genders very nummy. Orcs and Argonians are on my list too though.
 
I am shocked that Argonian is winning. I lurk a lot, and read a ton of RPs and character bios, I look a ton of screenshots, and I don't think I have ever heard someone talking about their scaly alter-ego.
