Which iteration of elder scrolls are you referencing for these races (it has been a while since I have played them)?

Also, what kind of magic system do you intend to use? Are you going to try and replicate the college system from elder scrolls (though it has changed with almost every game...)? Incidentally, Daggerfall pretty much introduced me to RPGs, so I will always have a soft spot in my heart series. I would love to play a GURPS campaign in the settin, and I started writing up the races just for fun, but I got distracted.

I admit its more of an inspired by since I've only played Skyrim and Oblivion. I'd like to play them all since I've sort of fell in love with Tamriel.

As for the magic system I plan to use the straight Magic system, just rearrange the spells to more closely fit the schools out of Oblivion. But that's a project for another day, right now I'm in the middle of the monster manual for the game and doing the Dragon Shouts.

I am currently running a GURPS Dungeon Fantasy game set in the world of The Elder Scrolls. It's a fantastically rich setting for such a game. Many players are familiar with at least one entry in the video game series, so it's got ease-of-entry going for it, too.

The fact that many of the details about things like racial differences and the magic system change from game to game serves to loosen up the idea that numbers or stats must be converted directly.

To the OP: what kind of feedback are you looking for with these templates? I could share mine, as well.

With mine I threw out the stats from the game, and used the verbal descriptions from the Wiki as a guideline.

I'd also like to see what other people are doing with it. I run the game at around 350, so they can take a class, race and still do some customization.

I'm not sure what Fire Mastery would actually do for them in GURPS.

Sorry, for not being clear on that. It's Magery only for Fire spells.
