Others rely on stealth or steel to survive, and their natural agility makes them adept at either. Their seemingly expressionless faces belie a calm intelligence, and many Argonians are well-versed in the magical arts. They are well-suited for the treacherous swamps of their homeland, and have developed natural immunities to the diseases and poisons that have doomed many would-be explorers into the region. Years of defending their borders have made the Argonians experts in guerilla warfare, and their natural abilities make them equally at home in water and on land. Little is known and less is understood about the reptilian denizens of Black Marsh. An intelligent, quick-footed, and agile people, Argonians often train in magery and thievery. The strange reptilian people of Black Marsh seem equally comfortable in the water - surely no other race of Tamriel can swim faster or for longer than Argonians. Know ye this also: Thy race is born of the swamps, thou hast stayed thyself from the open fields, for thou art hunters of a different sort, those who stalk thy prey in the still black waters. They are adept at any art involving the arcane, or involving thievery and sleight of hand. They can also swim faster than any other race. Because of their reptilian nature, Argonians do not tire easily while swimming, and seldom drown. They are known for their intelligence, agility, and speed. They are a highly evolved race of reptilians, at home in any marsh-like environment from which they hail. Argonians hail from the province of Black Marsh.
