Homebrew Argonian Species Details

They are known for their resilience, which is embodied by their resistance to disease. In addition to this resistance, they possess the ability to breathe underwater and a penchant for stealth. Large bodies of water are no obstacle for an Argonian.

Argonians are a hardy race with scaled skin, sharp claws, horns and raspy voices. Their scales can appear in a variety of hues, including (but not limited to) green, brown, black, red, blue and white.

They sometimes face prejudice in the land of Skyrim, as they look vastly different from the other humanoid races of Tamriel. The term "lizard" is often used as an insult towards Argonians. Being able to breathe underwater can allow for a quick escape from the guards or monsters.
