some people believe they are true Dragonborn, others believe they only have dragonblood, we don't know and are never going to know whether it's true or not, after all, their was no dragon for them to absorb. martin septim was dragonborn thats how he became the avatar of akatosh if he was dragonborn then the septims whocame before him would be even more so He could have just had Dragonblood, there is a difference between having Dragonblood and being a Dragonborn.
