Guys I can't stop thinking about skyrim. It is shameful how much I am thinking about it and reading forums and watching videos and searching for recent news. I think I am going to create a backstory for my three characters, which I've never done. It is tough since we don't know racial bonuses, which could affect my decision. But I think I am going to get super nerdy and write down back stories.I think fleshing them out in my own head will make me enjoy them more. I need some help making my final decisions though.:

1. Thief/Stealth character, will use archery from range, dual wield up close with daggers. He will be adept in Alchemy unsure how much I will invest in being gifted at speech. So the question is Khajiit (never played, but nice racial perk of night eyes) or wood elf?

2. Warrior. I am leaning towards a Board and Sword... Nord. But I can be swayed to a redguard perhaps or if someone makes an argument for 2H orc.

3. Full mage...Dark or High Elf?

Damn it! Why isn't NSFW in the title? I'm full mast from reading through this thread and can't stand up from my desk.

I feel your pain. Dammit, if only Waitmate were real LINK I would use it until Nov 5 then watch LSU-Bama then take it again until Nov 11 for Skyrim

I'm probably going to end up making an Orc with 2 weapons. The sole reason I am considering doing this is that they actually took the time to make your character look like a badass instead of some skinny androgynous wimp and I've seen screen shots of Orcs that look awesome. Also they added cool new animations to hand to hand combat that will actually make it more enjoyable.

Go with the Orc. They look really bad arse in Skyrim especially compared to how they looked in Oblivion.
