The Elder Scrolls: Castles is Bethesda Softworks LLC’s latest castle management simulation title. It is a free-to-play simulation title that puts you in control of your very own castle and dynasty. You need loyal and hardworking subjects in your kingdom to run a castle properly. Most of the well-known races from the Elder Scrolls universe are present in The Elder Scrolls: Castles.

The Nords, High-Elfs, Argonians, Khajiits, Redguards, Imperial, and so on are all found in your castle. You can manage them by assigning them particular tasks, assigning suitable subjects from two different races for marriage, and even assigning them to have babies. So, let’s talk in detail about all the races that inhabit the castle.

List of different Races in The Elder Scrolls: Castles

The Elder Scrolls: Castles includes various well-known races originally found in the Elder Scrolls Universe. One of the most distinctive aspects of each race is their unique racial powers. But that’s not the case for the Elder Scrolls: Castles.

The race of subjects doesn’t affect the gameplay of the game but it surely helps you connect with the deep lore of Elder Scrolls. And it gives a nice opportunity to people who always wanted to try the Elder Scrolls but couldn’t. The Elder Scrolls: Castles have lots of lore-related references. In the Elder Scrolls: Castles, the subjects who reside in the castle are divided into ten different races from Tamriel.

1. Imperial

High Elves are also known as Altmer and they are the noblest of all elven kinds. You get two to three subjects from this race in the very beginning. They are hard-working subjects, so your decisions favoring them matter a lot. There will come lots of choices where you can favor them and favor elves in general.

10. Dark Elf

The Dark Elves are also known as Dunmer, the grey-skinned people of Morrowind. You will notice that Galiel Beleth who is from this race, is particularly very disloyal to the kingdom. Although your choices and decisions can sway his mind. The Elder Scrolls: Castle also drops a lot of references related to Morrowind.

Final Thoughts

Although the different races don’t affect your gameplay as such, you can still experience the Elder Scrolls lore through your subjects residing in your castle. They do drop a lot of references to the actual lore so it’s a nice idea to know about them and how they look. It gives a nice nostalgia to Elder Scrolls fans and also lets new players experience some Elder Scrolls lore while casually playing the Elder Scrolls: Castles.

Nords have more hitpoints. Argonian are the Second sturdiest. Healthpoints is the only difference i notice só Far and for that the nords have an advantage, which sucks.
