Seemingly nomadic, giants travel with their herds, setting up camps across Skyrim and High Rock. Culturally, giants herd Mammoths, processing their milk into cheese, and complementing their omnivorous diet with the cooked meat of skeever. Infamous for their colossal height and immense strength, giants share little civil interaction with humanoids, if in fact any. Giants are a race of gargantuan humanoids found in the wilderness of Skyrim and High Rock. That notion is explored in Vivec's lessons, where it is stated that, 'when the dreughs ruled the world, the Daedroth Prince Molag Bal had been their chief.' The sermon gives details of the form Bal took at the time, describing it as 'spiny and armored and made for the sea.' Giants ДЄccording to legend, the Dreugh devolved from a much more intelligent and civilized race due to conflict with the Dunmer (who used their hides and wax), and powerful, tyrannic Dreugh kingdoms are reported by Mankar Camoran in his Mythic Dawn Commentaries, even going as far as to state they once ruled the world. There is some doubt on whether they shouldn't be classified along with Argonians, for their semi-aquatic nature and 'troglophiliac' humanoid form.

Once common throughout Vvardenfell, Ebonheart, and the surrounding waters, they have been driven into isolated pockets in more recent times. They are often hunted for their wax and hide. The Dreugh or Dreughs are a race of powerful aquatic creatures observed primarily in Morrowind (especially the Inner Sea), the Illiac Bay, the Abecean Sea, Black Marsh and Cyrodiil.

Some words in their spoken language can be projected into a powerful magic known as the Thu'um (literally 'Storm Voice') which is known to some simply as 'The Voice,' but widely known as 'Shouts.' They were nearly driven to extinction, and were widely believed to be until 4E 201 when they resurfaced in Skyrim with the return of Alduin.Д¬oncept art of a Dreugh in The Elder Scrolls Online. They, for the most part, consider non-Dovah to be weak-minded. They possess their own spoken and written language, and are capable of comprehending other languages.

Both male and female Argonians exhibit sexual qualities similar to men and mer, but no well-documented cross-breed offspring have been discovered, possibly because Argonians are egg-layers. When swimming, they use their tails to propel themselves as they glide through the water. Argonians possess tails, the only playable race besides the Khajiit to do so. TheyВ are highly resistant to disease and can breathe underwater,В as well as the only race of Tamriel that are completely unrelated to men and mer, having descended from a race of sentient trees known as Hist. The Argonians are a race of reptilian creatures native to Black Marsh. Tamrielic bestial races Argonians ДЄrgonians 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.
