Ilustração de um típico homem Bretano

Os Bretanos (tradução oficial de Bretons) são os humanos descendentes dos Manmer Aldmeri-Nédicos da Era Merética, e são agora os habitantes da província de Pedra Alta. Eles são unidos em cultura e idioma, apesar de serem divididos politicamente, pois Pedra Alta é uma região fracionada. Bretanos compõem a plebe, tropa, e elite mágica dos reinos feudais que competem por poder. Muitos são magos natos com resistência a magia de nascença. São conhecidos por uma proficiência em pensamento abstrato e costumes únicos. Bretanos são muito parecidos com outros humanos de pele pálida. São normalmente de estatura não tão muscular quanto os Nords ou Guardas-vermelhas. A ancestralidade élfica deles é normalmente detectável somente por uma inspeção minuciosa de suas sobrancelhas, orelhas ou bochechas, apesar de muitos Bretanos parecerem mais Nords ou Imperiais do que qualquer outra coisa. A grande diversidade da aparência deles é de ser esperada por conta de sua socidade politicamente fracionada, apesar de suas roupas, sotaques, costumes e nomes serem bem uniformes.

In-Game Description

In addition to their quick and perceptive grasp of spellcraft, even the humblest of Bretons can boast a resistance to magical energies. They are particularly skilled at summoning and healing magic.

Gameplay

Bretons are particularly skilled in Mysticism, Restoration, and Conjuration, which means they are natural defensive mages. They are resistant to magic, making them exceptionally useful against other magic users. Attention to Alteration might be useful against enemies who fight Hand To Hand or with weapons. It should be noted that Bretons do not have any bonuses to Destruction magic, giving the player a fairer choice between using offensive magic or weapons. Although they are not as skilled as the Altmer (High Elves) in the arcane arts, they may prove useful if fighting other mages. Their Dragon Skin greater power is especially powerful early on in the game and it remains useful even to high level players later on.

Enemy Bretons will most frequently be encountered as Conjurers (including Conjurer Adepts) and Necromancers (including Necromancer Adepts) in Cyrodiil, as well as Heretics and Zealots in the Shivering Isles. All Bandit Hedge Wizards are also Bretons. Among the vampires, the Agents, Mages, and Spellswords are Bretons. All of these Breton wizards generally dress in robes (sometimes enchanted) rather than armor, and attack their opponents with lightweight weapons (daggers, shortswords, or maces) or staves.
