Vampire

A vampire is a being from folklore who subsists by feeding on the life essence (generally in the form of blood) of living creatures. Undead beings, vampires often visited loved ones and caused mischief or deaths in the neighbourhoods they inhabited when they were alive. They wore shrouds and were often described as bloated and of ruddy or dark countenance, markedly different from today's gaunt, pale vampire which dates from the early 19th century. Although vampiric entities have been recorded in most cultures, the term vampire was not popularized in the west until the early 18th century, after an influx of vampire superstition into Western Europe from areas where vampire legends were frequent, such as the Balkans and Eastern Europe, although local variants were also known by different names, such as shtriga in Albania, vrykolakas in Greece and strigoi in Romania. This increased level of vampire superstition in Europe led to what can only be called mass hysteria and in some cases resulted in corpses actually being staked and people being accused of vampirism.

  • Races of The Elder Scrolls

    The Elder Scrolls series of role-playing video games are populated with a number of fantasy races, ten of which are playable. Generally, these races fall into one of three distinct archetypes, namely, humans, elvenkind, and beastfolk. Within the lore of the Elder Scrolls universe, men and mer (elves) are descended from an ancestral race known as the "Ehlnofey", and are capable of interbreeding.

    Playable races

    There are ten different races from which the player can choose: Altmer (High Elf), Bosmer (Wood Elf), Dunmer (Dark Elf), Orsimer (Orc), Breton, Argonian, Khajiit, Nord, Imperial, and Redguard. Each race excels in certain areas of skill over others and starts off at a higher level in these areas than other races which may have only a basic skill level, such as five or fifteen. For example, Wood Elves start with an elevated Archery level, whereas Argonians start with an elevated Lockpicking level.
