Khajiit Thread!
Greetings, fellow Elswyrians!
Dar'wafflestomp has seen very little Khajiit activity in these parts, and invites his brothers and sisters to join him in discussing what it means to be a child of Alkosh.
I (back to normal speak) also wondered why, in your opinion, the Khajiit have such limited skins available to them. I would have thought that they would be the most popular race to make skins for, with grand HD tiger, leopard, jaguar, or other "large cat" skins. All I've seen are some crappy tiger and leopard skins, and a half decent snow leopard skin.
And why did they put those flaps on our cheeks? Cats don't have flappy cheeks! It looks weird.
Anyone have any other Khajiit related questions here?

Well there are 16 different types of Khajiit based on when the pup is born in reference to the phases of the moons. We only see one type at a time based mostly on game limitations. Some are four legged and everything.
That's an interesting bit of lore, and left me with some questions when I heard it. I wondered why we only see bipedal ones (clearly because it's easier to program- would have liked more variety though). Also, would some be better than others in the days of the game, leading to parents trying to plan births for a certain time of year, perhaps with a fertility festival the appropriate number of months beforehand. That could be a mod or expansion, incorporating both Lore friendly development of the Khajiit race, and some adult mods haha!
I'm not entirely sure. If you are interested in Khajiit lore I suggest asking Mr_Flippers. He is definitely the expert on them around here and elsewhere I believe.
