For once, Uriel Septim VII, never got a chance to meet Mancar Camron. If you remember, Mystic Dawn got to him before he had a chance to escape Imperial City. If you are talking about Martin Septim, technically he could face Mankar Camron and Mystic Dawn by himself and shouted them apart. However, for the most of his life Martin Septim didn't even know that he was a Septim, let along known how to use all the abilities that comes with Dragon Blood. If there were such. So, the way I see it, it's nearly imposible to prove if Septim Bloodline could shout or not. We know for sure that the first Septim, Tiber Septim could. At least before he became the Emperor. Appearantly that wound that he gave himself, or assassin gave him; prevented him to shout ever again. So we can at least assume that every founders of three Dragonborn Dynasties were able to shout, we cannot be sure about their descendants. Unless someone states that that ability is passed down trough generations.
