We DO know that dunmer can breed with other races. Remember that little scandel involveing Barenziah and the emperor?

Oh, yes, this is a certainty. It isn't any question as to whether elves can bred with men. This is known. In fact, these couplings are even more fertile than elf-on-elf couplings. It is the ability of orcs to reproduce with other races that represents the real question. And I don't think there is any hard answer to this.

Half Breeds

Post by Anonymous »

I completely agree. We should make half breeds. That would be awesome. Physical ability of a Kajiit and te Mental and Magical abilities of a Breton.

The question besides just the ability of them to mate but will they... The races in Morrowind don't exactly get along as it is. Not to mention with all of the interacial marraiges and people stealing the Kajiit brides and stuff... Kids that are not exactly legitimate... Old heads of family forbidding marriage...

With the breeding of mixed races comes new races. Look at the spanish and indians. They made a whole new hispanic race. Take a dark elf and a redguard. If they breed together, it will make a pretty unique race since their physical features are both very different.

Well, I would agree that the mixing of large groups of different "races" would produce a new "race", but in this case we are talking mostly about isolated cases. The result would probably be considered to be more like a "hybrid" than a member of a new "race", though I guess it isn't technically incorrect.

Although coupling between Khajiit and men/mer are not unheard of, it is not beleived that they are capable of producing offspring. The same goes for Argonians and (probably) Orcs.

Man/elf half-breeds are about all that you get. And these are relatively common.

I would classify Bretons as a whole as half-breeds. They are effectively a race of half-elves. But that's neither here nor there.
