So that makes it possible for the Last Dragonborn to be any race. "Very few realize that being Dragonborn is not a simple matter of heredity - being the blessing of Akatosh Himself, it is beyond our understanding exactly how and why it is bestowed. Those who become Emperor and light the Dragonfires are surely Dragonborn - the proof is in the wearing of the Amulet and the lighting of the Fires. But were they Dragonborn and thus able to do these things - or was the doing the sign of the blessing of Akatosh descending upon them? All that we can say is that it is both, and neither - a divine mystery."

-The Book of the Dragonborn

Yeah that was quite what i meant, The Septim family was blessed by Akatosh, wich was a Nord lineage, that's why the dragonborn of the past were most Nords, but that doesn't mean that akatosh could not give this power to another person. I was just triyng to explain why the Last Dragonborn could be any race.
