You aren't playing as a Dagonborn. You're playing as a character like Ulfric Stormcloak, whom was simply training in the Thu'um. You wake up in a jail because it's TES, and that's wehat happens. but they hardly ever give the character any background story, one would be usefull to find out why you where in skyrim and then ended up in a prison on summerset? is it illegal to get training in shouting while youre in a different province? TES V and IV never gave a reason why you were arrested. Could be as simple as you were wearing an Amulet of Talos and you were arrested for it by Thalmor within Skyrim, and then taken to Summerset Aisles for tortu-- Erm-- Questioning.

Could be an amulet, could be they want to know more about the Greybeards and so they set off an avalance when you step outside. Just an idea on how to give the player a few shouts of their choice; maybe only three words of power that could be for the same or different shouts. From there, the game goes to Summerset.
