What kind of plot do you want in TES V? Keep in mind that this is a sequel to Oblivion, so it will take place right after the events of The Elder Scrolls IV. I don't know much about actaul canon for The Elder Scrolls, so bear with me. Here are several possibilities:

A Revolution:

After the Oblivion crisis was over, news spread through out the world that Tamriel was without an Emperor. Other greedy nations attempted to invade Tamriel. One was successful. A new evil ruler took charge of Tamriel. His police force was very cruel to the civilians, and were constantly looking for reasons, even small ones, to arrest them. No one was allowed to speak out against the evil ruler. Uprisings began. Several rebel factions came about. You join one of these factions and lead a revolution to overthrow the evil ruler.

Civil War:

The government collapses. Civil War breaks out over who the new Emperor should be. You take part in and witness this epic war.

The Fall of A Province

You are in a province that has very little control from the imperial legion. Gangs and drug dealers rule. You witness the fall of this province.

I guarantee that this topic. is going to be closed. There are two topics for TES V and the mods closed all of the others. You might want to think about how they have most likely finished the story already and how your suggestions will almost definitely not be considered. Regardless this is not the place to make any suggestions.

We don't know that.

Bethesda hasn't even told us what game they're working, TES V is a good guess but it's hardly confirmed. Also, Oblivion was the sequel to Morrowind and it wasn't a continuation of TES III's story so there's no reason to believe that TES V would pick off immediately where TES IV left off.


Regardless Mankar Camoran is correct that this belongs in the official TES V ideas thread, thanks for the link MC
