Wonderings on the lost powers.

[FullmetalHeart20]

So, every race has a racial power. It's probably the same even for non-playable or extinct races. So what racial ability do you think the Dwemer and Falmer had, respectively, before they faded from Tamriel? And I know we've seen proper Falmer before, but their numbers seem extremely low. Give your thoughts! I feed on them!

I'd say that the Dwemer would have had some kind of enhanced intelligence of some kind (I know that intelligence isn't an attribute in Skyrim, but it is in Oblivion).

 

[Thorn]

Definitely intelligence for the Dwemer
And I would assume that the Falmer being from where they're from, perhaps a resistance to frost like the Nords

 

[The OP3RaT0R]

Maybe the Snow elves can use a non-shout version of Ice Form or Frost Breath? I think they're supposed to have a thin layer of frost on their skin or something, so that would make sense.

 

[Dolomite5698]

I feel like the Dwemer would have some sort of engineering trait... intelligence makes sense too.

If we're going to give Dwemer a Skyrim ability, it'd have to go along with Smithing. Kinda like how Argonians can breathe underwater as Khajit have claws, then there's the activating power like Night Eye and Histskin but for Dwemer, maybe it'd up their resistance for a short time or more like the Orcs/Imperials?
