Nope, you just keep showing your complete ignorance of the game, and your own biases
First, Castle Volikhar is nowhere near Windhelm. Here's a handy map if you need it. In fact, the castle is in the northwest corner of the map. Yes, there is a ferryman in Windhelm that can take you near it but there are also ferrymen in Dawnstar and Solitude that can do so. And Argonians - with their high racial resistance to disease - are in fact the least likely race to contract Sanguinare Vampiris. In fact, I don't believe we encounter a single named Argonian vampire in the game, and Skyrim's code for randomly generating vampires does not even allow for Argonian vampires, and the chance of a random Arognian thrall is much lower than any mer or man race since thralls are drawn from the bandit leveled lists, most of which exclude Argonians.
Plus, what do you mean by Alteration drain spells? The general drain spells were removed in Skyrim, but in Morrowind and Oblivion were both under Destruction, not Alteration. And the one remaining offensive drain spell in Skyrim - vampiric drain - is under Destruction.
Oh, and why do you focus so much on just Windhelm, when more Argonians live in Riften than Windhelm?
There is literally nothing in game to support your premise that Argonians are kidnapping babies for the vampires. It is entirely your own invention.
(Oh, and if you want to talk about betraying humanity for a crust of bread, Khajiit easily fit that too based on quests, as seen by the multiple occasions throughout the game where Khajiit NPCs turn out to be assassins working for the Thalmor).
Not even going to bother wasting my time on why you are insisting that Orcs are evil while Nords are good, given your complete lack of any in-game rationale for it, and the fact that you continue to show you know nothing beyond the most surface level aspects of the game. If, for example, you want to pick a race which would preferentially seek out the Ebony Blade and Mail it would be a Dunmer, not an Orc, since Dunmer worship Boethiah and Mephala while Orcs would hate Boethiah because of what happened to Malakath.
TL;DR - play the games before trying to classify things about it.
Don't bother. This guy is a reddit tranny faggot spamming his failed abortion of a idea in the most "How do you do, fellow gamers" manner possible. He's posted this same shit to ConPro, and c/games as well.
My mistake, thanks. Still, Solitude is the last place the Volikhar would want to infiltrate; it's full of Imperial paladins. Winterhold is also inadvisable due to pyromancers and Restoration mages. Dawnstar is an option, but haunted by Vaermina, who may be territorial with other Daedra. Vampires haunt Morthal, but it is provincial. That leaves Windhelm, with its conveniently underutilized Argonian population and casual murder of streetwalkers. The streets flow with blood, and the orphanage is packed!
Thus making them good thralls for fighting lesser vampires, and candidates for eventually receiving Volikhar's true blood. Also good for feeding on without propagating. I don't argue Argonians are common vampires.
Alteration Absorb spells are similar to Destruction's Vampiric Drain.
Alternate Start mod: "I am an Argonian dockworker in Windhelm." (Only for Argonians.)
[[https://elderscrolls.fandom.com/wiki/Windhelm_(Skyrim)][Windhelm]] has many more mentions of Argonians than [[https://elderscrolls.fandom.com/wiki/Riften_(Skyrim)][Riften]].
Indeed: I alone have detected that islander Volikhar use Argonians as their infiltration vector, due to my keen appreciation of opportunistic reptilian psychology, particularly that of a Thief without racial offensive skills bonuses.
Assassins are paid well in gold, not bread. However a hungry Argonian would probably trade a vampiric feeding for a few fish; he can just regenerate.
Mechanically, the Orc uses those artifacts. Both require murders, and he doesn't mind Requiem's excommunication. Ebony Mail's Muffle opens the Thief's Guild and Dark Brotherhood. Tertiary Sneak suits his warbow archery.
The nature of my project to identify Skyrim's mechanical racial archetypes eludes you; I describe it here: https://www.reddit.com/r/skyrimrequiem/comments/vc74uu/racial_implications_of_requiems_starting_skill/
Even ignoring how you are treating your personal choices in mods as canon (which they're not, on several levels) and as impacting every member of a race (which they don't, they just impact the Dragonborn), you have at least 4 factual errors about the contents of the game in your post
So, as before, you just keep showing your complete ignorance of the game, and your own biases. Play the games before trying to classify things about it.
Well, I count 4 lies in your comment, which is characteristic of your accuracy, so I'll not be checking unless you name the supposed four errors.
