From my point of veiw, the dragonborn would be nothing without the player behind that iorn helmate of his. As an NPC, the dragonborn would need to sleep, they would need to make decisions, they would need to eat, e.c.t. But with us, the player behind him... The dragonborn never sleeps, never eats, never drinks. He waits...

And i am assuming if you are reading this now, the dragonborn also has the power of the internet at his disposal! So having the ability to seek out any and all shouts without the help of the greybeards. And what would happen after the main story had been completed? The NPC dragonborn would only know the shouts: unrelenting force, dragonrend and that one word to whirlwind sprint!

There are a total of 81 words of power to collect, and of the earlier topic 'could the dragonborn defeat a daedric prince or even akatosh himself?' The player could, but again if the dragonborn as an NPC with his own life and free will will be turned to a husk of ash and dragon souls. He would be stuck with the crappy steel weapons and studded armour with iorn helm from the trailers, am i right?

Reguardless, there would be no decision making or anything like that. No side quests, no participation in the war, no becoming a maage and no eye of magnus e.c.t
