Tamrielic bestial races Argonians Īrgonians in Skyrim.
The immortal beings known as dragons, not unlike beastfolk but considered 'mere beasts' by most people, are in reality highly intelligent creatures of divine origin, unrelated to the bestial races.
No official information has been released about the lifespans of beastfolk. The physical appearance of beastfolk range from being humanoid in appearance to more beast-like. The races of beastfolk are also far more different from one another than any two races of men or mer. The most significant difference between the beastfolk and the other races is physical, with far more differences than those between men and mer. Though the beastfolk were the first inhabitants of Tamriel, they did not create written records until the empire of Tiber Septim, making it difficult to determine how long Beastmen were in Tamriel before the first mer. The origins of beastfolk, unlike mer and men, vary from race to race. Each bestial race reports differently in Mythic Era history, before the Invasions of men and mer. Vvardenfell savant Okan-Shei professed that Betmeri, or 'Beastmen,' were the aboriginal inhabitants of Tamriel.
