I'm quite a big Elder Scrolls fan. :P I credit Morrowind for getting me into RPG video games, Pen and paper RPG's, fantasy, writing and art. It's also the thing that sparked my imagination. That game spoiled me so that I found it hard to settle for the yawningly typical fantasy RPG plot lines where you're fighting wolves, bears, goblins and ogres in fantasy-England.
I had this character, Jack, for ages. I've played her through Morrowind and Obivion and Skyrim, but Skyrim really made her come alive. And all because when I heard that in Skyrim's time, Red Mountain had erupted on Vvardenfell, I asked myself "If the Nerevarine was still alive, how would she feel about the eruption? Would she blame herself for it?" And that's more or less how I played Jack in Skyrim... as the Nerevarine who had leaped through an oblivion gate during the Oblivion Crisis, only to end up in Skyrim in the 200th year of the 4th era... I know it's all over powered, but that's ok. The story is for me and my best friend, although I might still write the tales of Jack, if only to see if I can write a character that everyone likes despite her being "overpowered" or a "mary sue".
This was just a quick doodle really, it's not my best.

I consider myself to be a dragon as well, it was actually Skyrim that helped me realize that in an odd, round about, kooky way. I'm actually surprised you find the story interesting, I expected everyone to roll their eyes at the idea. On the outside it sounds like a self-inserted daydream, the kind that makes up the worse fanfictions... although that's not my intentions. I see the later tales of this character being more like ancient myths, where the hero is half god, and essentially flawless, but the story is less about over coming flaws and more about massive awesome adventures that are metaphorical for how things came to be, or allegories on how to live life.
Ah! Sorry! I'm rambling!
