So I've looked into Valenwood, and there are two sets of creatures that
show intelligent characteristics, unlike the goblins. Since they show
intelligent characteristics, I was thinking of having them as a new
race, though not to be able to select at the beginning of the game.
Anyway these races are known as The Great Apes (or Imgas) and the
Centaur. From what I have researched, these races have taken over towns
that have been abandoned by the Bosmer. The Great Apes are look sort of
like Orcs, but they are hairy and gray skinned. Though since the High
Elfs used to own them as slaves, the Great Apes have taken the liking
of knowing them as their "Masters", and they have adapted to the
tradition of shaving their hair and powdering their skin so they could
look like their "Masters". Though I was thinking that this might
actually look ridiculous, so we could just leave their ancestral look.
Of course, if you are not interested of adding the Great Apes and
Centaur, or if somebody has already suggested it, then post so I could
know.

We indeed already got some art of the Igma's. There not really slaves
as far as I know. In VW these days they life in indeed abandoned cities
build by the Imperials. They see Aldmer as a superior race and try to
look like them by shaving and powdering etc.
We'll add them eventually
I'm not sure how we're with centaurs. There definetnly not going to be
playable nor a new race. I think it's way easier to make a creature,
just like Sheogorath

The Igma concept art is very good, it looks just like I have imagined
it. Though I think that it shouldn't be a playable race, so you can
stick with the original concept of Oblivion. The centaurs should be
creatures since the Daedra Spider (the half human and half creature
look) and Horse (the galloping and stuff) animations have already been
created, so I think that someone should combine them to create a unique
animation for the centaur. |
