When a prayer to the Divines gives him power more than he could ever imagine, what does a regular Nord smith from Shor's Stone mean to do with something like that?
To become an Artificer, a craftsman without equal. This is the story of Gerron Ironbreaker, the blacksmith who becomes the Champion of Zenithar and the saviour of Skyrim.
-
The main character will have the Artificer System, a crafting type system where he will create powerful magical artifacts to use in the world of Skyrim. Plenty of these artifacts will be familiar since I'll be taking ideas from many fandoms.
Things to note:
- MC is not reincarnated, he is an actual person from Skyrim given the system.
- MC is not Dragonborn. The Dragonborn still exists and is running around doing their own thing.
- I'll be taking creative liberties for the world of Elder Scrolls. So if you see something you don't recognize, it's probably AU.
Last but least, a quick disclaimer. All recognizable content here belongs to Bethesda as well as other famous worlds of fiction. I'm merely writing in the massive canvas that they already painted on.

Fire and Ice, Alduin's Daughter
The World Eater has returned, and after one thousand years of safety, Ali meets a man who's destiny is to face none other than her father. With caution, she explores the depths of herself alongside this man who calls himself Dragonborn.... will she stop living in the past and isolation, and face her greatest fear? IMPORTANT NOTES: The ONLY character that belongs to me is Ali and Ivar and their backstories.. ALL other characters, including the Dragonborn, are NOT mine and belong to Bethesda Studios' "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim." All of the Dovahzul is accurate, I spent hours on a PDF I downloaded, Dovahzul Print Dictionary, to translate ALL of it. Pretty sure I'm nearly fluent in it just because of this book. Don't worry, whenever there's conversation in Dovahzul that is NOT in-game, I translated afterwards so you can understand if you don't already. There are some very short mature scenes, but it's not anything too detailed.Complete
