Argonian

Argonians are lizard-folk and hail from the Black Marsh province. Due to the harsh nature of their native environment, they are more resistant to diseases and poisons and are amphibious. Males tend to be faster and more agile, while females tend to be more intelligent and determined. Both sexes lack endurance and will probably never be regarded as brilliant conversationalists or particularly persuasive (except possibly by other Argonians). Because of these, Argonian males might tend toward more stealth-related classes, while females might tend toward magic, though neither would be my first choice for a combat-related class due to their low endurance. You can make up for some of this by choosing the Warrior as your birthsign, but aside from role-playing considerations, there are better race choices for combat classes.
