He knew how to handle the Mysterium Xarxes (I think thats how you spell it) and open a portal to Oblivion after all. I think the "blood of the dragon" refers to Septim Blood not actual dragon blood because its been shown that its not linear. But the first Dragonborn were made from their hate for dragons weren't they? And there was at least 3 fighting Alduin at the Throat of the world so back then it wasn't a rare thing. But I think its safe to assume that AzureKnight and 213.143.72.174 are right and the newest Dragonborn is chosen because he or she is needed. And I totally agree with AlxCj on the fact that the character always starts out as a blank slate and shaped by the player. The 3 heroes who fought alduin were not Dragonborn but they had the power of the Voice. You dont have to be dragonborn to shout you know.

The three heroes were the Tongues, not Dragonborn.
