A little off topic, but recently I've apreached Heimskr in Whiterun and asked him to tell me about Talos and he clearly belives that Talos was in life a Nord with immense strengh. That contradicts most people views on Talos really being Breton. This is Barenziah's description of Tiber.

He was only of middle height, half a head shorter than tall Symmachus, although he was well knit of figure and lithe in movement. He had a winning smile, bright, indeed piercing, blue eyes, and a full head of stark white hair above a lined and weathered face.

His white (probably used to be blond) hair and blue eyes hints at Nordic ancestry while his shorter height can point towards a different ancestry.

Tiber Septim is most likely Nord-Breton.
