I float between Nord and one of the beast races but have also been a dark wood and woods wild in my 12 years of Skyrimming. What’s your fave and why?

Obviously I’m always a stealth archer too.

I have a very hard time not going Breton. They're a jack of all trades and their magic resist is hard not to pick.

It also doesn't hurt that a lot of the other racials are pretty useless and most of the rest are easily replaceable. Kajit claw damage is a notable exception for unarmed playthroughs (though that also is pretty niche), and there's just... something about playing a Nord in Skyrim.
