A day later, he escaped because Emperor Uriel Septim VII had to escape from the Mythic Dawn Assassins. Figure out what happens next... If the Nerevarine was the Hero of Kvatch then the Hero of Kvatch would be OP from the beggining. They aren't the same person. First of all, the nervar is a dark elf, and the the hero of kavatch WAS a imperial, so sholar of the scrolls, good job Nerevar was a dunmer, yes, but the NEREVARINE is specificallty identified as an outlander by the prophecy(also very convenient if you're not in a dumner mood for your pc lol). It could be a dunmer from another province, hence still an outlander, but that also allows any race to make perfect sense here. The HoK was a prisoner that Uriel Septim was having prophetic dreams about. He stumbled upon him in the dungeons while he's trying to escape the MD assassins, and off ya go. That doesn't really scream any particular race to me. Skyrim's a bit iffy to me because I believe all the Dragonborns of the past were Nords. The Septim bloodline is Nordic. That said, the game tells us it's a gift bestowed upon mortals by Akatosh himself. That would indicate it could be any race too I suppose, but it's not as "solid" to me as Oblivon or Morrowind. The Dragonborn of the past were Nords, because the Dragon Blood was in Tiber Septim who is a nord and it passed to his descendants, so it was a know fact that everyone from the Septim Bloodline had Tiber Septim Dragon blood and there was no dragons to any other lineage of the Dragon Blood to be revealed, but the Septim bloodline ended with Martin Septim, so the Dragonborn in Skyrim isn't from the Septim bloodline, but is from a different Dragon bloodline that was not been revealed yet, because there was no Dragons for them to find out until Skyrim. So that makes it possible for the Last Dragonborn to be any race.
