Rise of the Elves Redux

Description
Hey guys! As you may know I tried a Rise of the Elves previously. It worked, but wasn't the best. Instead of trying to fix it, I restarted from sratch and got this. I believe its better. It still ads 3 new races: Dwemer, Sand Elves and Ayleid instead of Falmer.

Ayleid:
conjuraton - 10
One-Handed - 5
Light Armor - 5
Block - 5
Restoration - 5
Destruction - 5
Ayleid were deep into Daedra worship so i assumed it fit to give them conjure familiar as a starting spell, and add a new power called Power of your Lords which allows you to summon a dremora lord for 120 seconds once a day.

Dwemer
Smithing - 10
One-Handed - 5
Two-Handed - 5
Block - 5
Archery - 5
Alchemy - 5
Dwemer have an unnatural bond with the forge, science and logic so I gave them the ability Spirit of the Forge which slightly fortifies healing rate and has a chance to fortify smithing.

Sand Elves
Archery - 10
Conjuration - 5
Sneak - 5
Light Armor - 5
One-Handed - 5
Destruction - 5
Sand Elves return and have the ability of 75% resistance to fire damage and start out with 50 extra stamina.

Chimer!
Destruction - 10
Conjuration - 5
Sneak - 5
Speech - 5
Enchanting - 5
Illustion - 5
As the Chimer began to worship the Daedra, Mainly boethiah, I gave them slightly higher conjuration (plus its my favortie magic skill) and as they were better diplomats then Imperials I gave them the power of Chimer Charm which will calm any creature up to lvl 100.

I tried to keep these races both in par with the lore and balanced compared to other races in skyrim and I believe I have done well. Feel free to try them out and tell me how I did.

Ok, tested both here are my results using racial compatability and better vampires + moonlight tales. Werewolf Ayleid had no problems playiny though the main quest of Falskaar so good there. Dawnguard however epic failed - couldn't pick up Bloodstone Chalice and due to no vampire variant of the races even the console couldn't rescue the situation. Set stage tends to break Dawnguard so that's not an option worth taking - while I otherwise like the mod until this is resolved it's not entirely usable.

Vicciino, noticed a problem in the mod - no vampire variants of the races, while most of Arthmoor's Alternate Starts are not Vamp it does limit the fun of hitting the "Surprize Me" choice. Game play wise the vamp in secluded lair will still work in terms of spells applied to the character however looks conditionals in the game such as eye colour changes will not apply. I haven't started one of your races in Harkon's court at present so I can't add here until tried.

On a slightly related, race conditional comments such a Beleval in the Dawnguard which is among the more complimentary do not register, I've been doing my character as an Ayleid and the guards don't have any snide anti-elf comments either. I know Falskaar has a similar race check in the main quest on it but, haven't gotten there with my Ayleid as yet so give it about a fortnight and I should have information on both situations.:steamhappy:

@Sithis, Technically Almalexia regained her Chimer appearance and Vivec chose to be half Chimer and half Dunmer - this is from Morrowind with the Tribunal expansion. You don't really get a good look at Sotha Sil, I won't spoil why but, at the time it's quite the distraction going on.
