User blog comment:Tholanar/If you were the High Queen or King of Skyrim..../@comment-5709731-20121229175952

Since this thread has grown so large, I'll make another post, this time about my High Elven Dark Crusader, Tholanar.

After killing Alduin, rising to leadership in the college of Winterhold, stamping out the Dark Brotherhood, slaying Ulfric Stormcloak, saving Paarthurnaxx from the blades and becoming Lord Tholanar of Castle Volkihar, I would for some reason be involved in the choosing of a new High King/Queen. I would first practice illusion magic, then use it to make the Jarls vote for me instead of Elisif. Illusion isn't a skill I use much, but High Elves are generally good at it, and so are Vampires. Then, I would become High King. And a lot of things would start to change in Skyrim.

1. The very first thing I would do, would be to ensure that the Jarls' stewards were murdered and replaced by a vampire of my choosing. These vampires would keep the Jarls under control with their illusory tricks and manipulate them to do my bidding. Also, I would turn a large number of nobles and influential persons into vampires, and members of my court.

2. After that, I'd order my court to assassinate innocents and blame the Dawnguard (Just like in the side quest you can do), and then order my puppet-jarls to send armies against the Dawnguard, hopefully destroying them. I have already killed Isran and all the other Dawnguard leaders myself, so that shouldn't be a challenge. With the Dawnguard out of the way, the greatest threat to my rule and my vampiric stewards would be gone, and I would have absolute control over Skyrim. The one who controls the Jarls, controls the country.

3. To prevent anyone else from rising up and finding out about my dark tyranny, I would train an elite sect of vampiric nightblades, whose job would be to ensure that the jarls were under control, and to eliminate resistance of any kind. In mockery of the Dawnguard, I would use Fort Dawnguard as a second headquarters (the primary one being castle Volkihar) for the nightblade sect. I would post one of these nightblades in every one of the forts now under imperial control, and let them influence the commanders of said forts, so that they wouldn't look into the matter of my secret elimination police.

4. I would marry Serana. Our offspring would be dracopiric, a mix of my pure dovah sos (Dragon blood) and her Daughter-of-Coldharbour blood. I would maybe have to cure myself of vampirism temporarily, to ensure my dragon blood was pure, but that could easily be done. With a mix of pure dragon blood and pure vampire blood, a line of dracopires would be born. ((Tecnically I myself would be a dracopire as well, seeing as I am a dragon infused with vampirirsm, but my children would be a perfect mix of each, being equal vampire and dragon(born))) With their mastery over both Voice and Night Powers/blood magic, they would be immensely powerful.

5. Now that my rule was supreme, my lineage was secured and my enemies dead, I would begin to root out the thin-blooded vampires. I would use this as a cover for my own vampiric underlings and all, blaming the killings of my secret Nightblade Sect on the thin-bloods, who I would then root out, to give the people an illusion that I was a good king.

6. As for the Empire... I would probably regret I ever sided with them, but I was mortal and foolish back then. :) Had I sided with the Stormcloaks, it would be much easier. Anyway, I would probably do some Vampire Lord raids on their fortresses, not personally though. Any of my vampire underlings should be able to shape-shift to vampire lord form. Anyway, I would slowly use my vampire lord underlings to weaken the Empire, and again hunt the thin-bloods to push suspicion away from myself and my underlings, using my vampiric stewards to keep the jarls in check. After some time, they could probably be pushed out of Skyrim.

7. After the empire had been pushed out, I would probably just stop trying to fool my people, revealing myself as a tyrant king and Vampire Lord, and force my people to give praise to Molag Bal and Akatosh, the gods of Vampires and Dragons, as their primary gods. Other, lesser aedra and daedra would be allowed as well. I would personally slaughter every single companion, because they posed a threat to my rule. As arch mage of the Mages Guild, I would force them to study blood magic and shouts for me, but apart from that ensure that they could go on with whatever research they had in mind as well. I would welcome anyone who wished to challenge my rule to a duel in a bloodsoaked arena, where the nobles and court members could watch me tear groups of rebels apart with my claws and drain their life blood, or maybe tearing them apart with shouts.

8. I would allow the people to go on with their lives, yet only if they remained loyal to my vampiric servants. The Dov would be allowed to roam freely, as long as they swore allegiance to me and did not harm any Vampire. I would ensure the safety of my people, allow them to do basically what they wanted, while the Vampire Lords and Dov would have more rights than the lower populace. Thus, Vampire and Dov would rule the mortals of Skyrim. Mortals would be treated as the lowest people, Dragon and Vampire as nobles, and then the dracopiric family as the highest of the high. Every Jarl would be replaced by a Dov or Vampire.

9. I would be a devout follower of the idea of a balanced world of equal Stasis and Change. I would worship Akatosh and Molag Bal, thinking those two the strongest spirits of Stasis and Change respectively. I would allow the Vampires and Dragons to do as they wanted with the human/elven populace, but I would also ensure that what they did was not directly evil.

10. Argonians would all be executed. They are descendants of Sithis. I would hate Sithis, because he is the Lord of Change only, and would like to disrupt my perfect stasis/change balanced world. Likewise, I would hate Anu. Therefore, any argonins and Dark Bortherhood members would be executed for their connection to Sithis.

11. At some point, the Empire would catch wind of the Dracopiric King of the North and go to battle with me. But as I had both Vampire Lords and dragons under my service, hopefully I would be able to defend myself. Also, the Empire would be fighting at two fronts, against me, and the Aldmeri Dominion. I would not venture anywhere away from Skyrim, and I would just rule my little frozen kingdom.

12. I would attempt to take the Dragon Throne of Cyrodiil, forcing the soldiers of Skyrim to fight beside my dov and Vampire Lord nobles. I myself would wield Auriel's bow, and shoot the sun to bits to let my Vampires be able to fight properly.

13. Should I suceed to make myself Emperor, I would do the same things to Cyrodiil as I did to Skyrim, and start using the Dov and Vampire Lords, as well as the mortals I had enslaved, to conquer the rest of Tamriel. IF (A very big "if") that should suceed, I would research Auriel's bow, and call the greatest magicians of the Empire to my aid. I would sacrifice my dear wife Serana, as well as a Dragon, to corrupt Auriel's Bow with Dracopiric blood. I would shoot the sun, transforming it to a gateway not only into Aetherius, but also into Oblivion. It would shine enough for crops to grow, yet be dim enough for vampires to prosper. I would rename Auriel's Bow, calling it Tholanar's Bow, and keep working on a way to use the newly transformed sun, to make myself a God, the first Et'Ada to be neither Padomaic nor Anuic. Would probably involve me traveling through the sun, by invoking the power of Tholanar's Bow, and reaching Aetherius and Oblivion.

All of this is very unlikely to happen, but for my knowledge of ES lore, if I was completely mind-blowingly, insanely, incredibly lucky this could suceed. Buuuut, it would also be heavily lore breaking. :D Everything up to the last part of step 13 could probably suceed though.
