Story
Let's just say that not everything went according to plan.
The Dragonborn failed in killing Alduin- instead the mighty black Dragon tore him to pieces. The death of the Dragonborn left Skyrim at the mercy of Alduin. Yet, instead of destroying the cold land, he saw use in the many people that worked the lands. Skyrim fell into a dark era, one where dragons ruled and people served under them in fear. The dragons were given sacrifices, mostly cows or other farm animals, but a stray human was given once or twice. The people would horde huge amounts of gold and other precious items to present to their mighty overlords at the end of the year. And, if there were any signs of inefficiencies, any sign of rebellion, both parties knew that there would be people killed.
Centuries passed. The dragons tightened their hold on Skyrim without mercy. Just when people lost all hope, a child was born. No one knew it at the time, but that child was the new Dragonborn. Yet, the child could not face a giant horde of dragons by themselves. As if a babe could Shout and wield a sword!
Soon, the child was in their second decade of living, as strong and hardy as any man or woman of Skyrim. Yet, the Dragonborn doesn't even know of their powers. They continue to do what they do best.
But the Dragonborn's destiny will soon catch up with them.
Cities
Each city in Skyrim has a dragon ruler that has to be killed before the Dragonborn goes for Alduin. This is to lower reinforcements when the final battle occurs.
Each dragon will have a name.

[brInamed and chose the dragons if you dun mind.Ialso put three female dragons, since, you know, it makes more sense to have two genders instead of one.

Characters
Username: Eb
Username: Eb
Name: Maire Nightraven
Age: 23
Gender: Female
Race: Nord [ftw]
Appearance: Maire is five foot four, the standard height for women, or so she believes. Her hair is a milky brown color, well suited to match her cool blue eyes. Her face is delicate and sweet looking, but really, it couldn't be further from the truth. She has a slightly below average chest, but at least she isn't flat chested. Her skin is creamy white, not exactly pale, but not dark, either. Her legs look like they could carry her far distances in short amounts of time.
Personality: Maire isn't necessarily rude, she's blunt. She isn't known to sugar coat anything when delivering bad news. This feisty and fiery woman doesn't hold back when she wants to say something. Other than that, she is considered very cunning and swift, often lashing out retorts or answers faster than you can say "don't say anything". Other than being feisty, hot, and blunt, she really is afraid of many things. These things are unknown, however. Only those who grow close to her really know what chills her to the bones.
Short Bio: Maire was born in a very small home by Mara's Eye Pond. She lived a fairly simple life with her father, who was a retired member of the Thieves' Guild, and her mother, who had once been a Riften guard. They worked very hard to make money to give to the dragons, but one day, one of them decided to be a particularly cruel one. The dragon burned down the home and killed her mother and father. Only Maire, who was eleven at the time, escaped. She ran to Riften and became a little thief of her own, using the techniques that her father taught her to sneak and cut coin purses. The Thieves' Guild noticed her and took her under their wing, especially since she was the daughter of a so-called Nightingale. She resides in Riften to this date.
Other: Dragonborn, part of the Thieves Guild.
