    Nope im reworking my main right now and his story incorporates Altmer themes. So i might be asking some more questions about that if i cant find It myself ^^

    Oh... Since your guy is an Imperial, that could create a really tricky and interesting concept. An Imperial siding with the Dominion... wow, that's really a lot of potential for good and complex RP.

    Thats what i was thinking) Its an Imperial but he had an Altmer upbringing, with the Altmer Pantheon and so on ^^

    Hmm, I thought something along the lines of an Imperial who got disillusioned with the Empire. But a guy with an Altmeri upbringing, that's even trickier and has to be very detailed. I've done such a one before (it was a Nord, however the concept is the same), and it's rather complex, requires a very particular mindset. Such a character doesn't allow for any sort of alignment but Lawful, and has to have reasons to be that way. The disillusioned one gives more room for variety.

    Well i made his father an Altmer. So he got both Imperial and Altmeri upbringing. He sides with the Thalmor his Divine is Magnus He has an Altmeri Name and mostly follows his fathers Believes on things like Deadra. His Father taught him the Altmer point of View on Talos and what he did to the the Altmer in the Past.

    If he has an Altmer father and an Imperial mother, that means he is a bastard. Because the law of the Dominion obviously wouldn't allow such a marriage. Which falls into the category I described but is even more tricky than a full-blooded Imp.

    I mean, it's totally viable. But such a background makes for a very specific kind of personality.

    Even if the live in Cyrodiil?

    If the dad is a citizen of the Dominion and he obeys the Dominion law, yes, it would be the same even in Cyrodiil.

    I think i dont know enough to even attempt to make a Character. I dont know if this would work but what i thought was that his Father lives in Cyrodiil. He is a Citizen in Cyrodiil and follows those laws. All i wanted was for him to teach the Character about Altmer Culture since the father is still proud of his Races Culture. So his son can choose between what they want. An Altmer upbringing where his father teaches him proper manners and The Altmer believes on Deadra and Aedra things Like that or he can Choose more of an Imperial upbringing with their Pantheon and so on. Kinda like how my parents let me choose what Religion i wanted to be.
