I would like to believe that the main antagonist of the next game might not be a person, per se, but rather an event. In the Shivering Isles, while Jyggalagg was the main bad guy, you still had to put up with the whole "Greymarch" thing. So why not the next enemy actually BE an event, like a fortold disaster? It could even be backed by some beautiful, flamboyant bad guys.

I would think it'd be in the next Era, which would be the 5th Era, after the events of Skyrim.

If anything, I'd be hoppin' for Valenwood; Elsewyr, maybe? It'd make most sense for Valenwood, with the whole nature thing playing out.

As for the hero... why not an anti-Septim? Specifically, a divine being that's been reborn as mortal (whereas Tiber Septim became a god, this being the opposite). It'd certainly be interesting, and it'd give the Main Character some powers to go on to begin with.
