The Dragon War, documented : The Elder Scrolls Series Discussion

So many interesting things have been said here. So much to think... This thread is fantastic!!!

Then who was the Ysgramor in Sovngarde? Did Ysgry had the ability to take on human form? An old post by WormGod suggested that some dragons did so, and you can make up a story of Olaf One-Eye being Numinex's human form.

Well, it has been said that Ysgramor was a Dragon, not that he still is. Maybe he became a Human? After all, if a tiger can become a Dragon, why would the other way round be impossible? Perhaps this shapeshifting could be a consented sacrifice in order to transmit the power of the Voice to some humans? Or perhaps it was some expiatory punishment required by Akatosh?

Also, aren't we witnessing a new developpers roleplay à la trial of Vivec? Quite passionnating, I hope it'll last several threads.

I've heard pretty reliably we aren't, but that doesn't mean this thread suddenly gets not fun, because it is enjoyable to read. So far as I know, there's only two of them in here and neither were dragons. But then, I could be wrong. Such things have happened.

There's always the simple explanation. Ysgramor reproduced.

I'm pretty sure dragons eat elks whenever they get the chance. RUN!

Pah. The Merry Eyesore has the Voice, and a beard as grey as Ysmir.

I'm not talking about the "lumpy elk". I'm just getting annoyed by the dragons. The only post I've paid attention from Elk is the OP.

Or is he posting as the dragons too?

Late, but, no, the dragons aren't the Elk, or Hasphat.

Well there goes half of my theories.

Does it really matter who they are? MK invited them, it seems, so I consider it lore as much as MK's stuff.

Kyne if a goddess not a hawk...

I edited that complaint out because it seemed pointless, but the Nordic animal totem gods are almost undoubtedly the Nordic pantheon from varieties of faith. She is an Aedra, yes, but she takes the form of a Hawk/Eagle in the Nordic religion.

Ah, yes, I forgot. Even more fantastical evidence is...
Dagon was a Dragon.

Mehrunes Dagon=Maroon Dragon.

Also he didn't leap, he flew. His wings were just invisible.

Invisible, and very, very quiet.

Before we go further down the 'Everyone was a Dragon' rabbithole, can I just point out how much like David Icke we sound right now?
