A race in the Elder Scrolls video game series.
The most naturally talented warriors in Tamriel, the dark-skinned, wiry-haired Redguards of Hammerfell seem born to battle, though their pride and fierce independence of spirit makes them more suitable as scouts or skirmishers, or as free-ranging heroes and adventurers, than as rank-and-file soldiers. In addition to their cultural affinities for many weapon and armor styles, Redguards are also physically blessed with hardy constitutions, resistance to poison, and quickness of foot. Redguards do not share the same blood as the other human races. Their original home was not Atmora, the ancestral land of the Nedic progenitors of Nord, Breton, and Imperial bloodlines.

A Redguard, the fiercest warrior in the game, is a master of martial arts. With bonuses in Blade, Blunt and Athletics, they are fast - and deadly - warriors.

The only race worth being in any of the elder scrolls games, mostly because they're the only black race, but also because their long blade skillz PWN!!!
Anyone who chooses a wood elf as their character should be shipped to San Fransisco and get raped by all the other wood elves. Redguards should be sent to Africa.

A race in the game Oblivion, commonly used in the place of the word nigger because most black people dont play Oblivion.

A code name for a black person. You would probably say this if you were white in a mostly black school to describe an African-American, to avoid being called a racist. (Because African-Americans get offended over everything.) The word originates from the video game, Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion.
