Miraak, the First Dragonborn and central character in the Dragonborn DLC for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, rose to power by conquering the island of Solstheim and enslaving its native Skaal. His mastery of the Thu’um, the ancient language of dragons, earned him the title “First Dragonborn” and the reverence of his followers. Miraak’s ambition led him to challenge the rule of the dragon Alduin, the World-Eater, in an epic battle that shaped the history of Tamriel.

Despite his defeat at the hands of the Last Dragonborn, Miraak’s legacy endures. His name, meaning “he who walks the path of darkness” in the ancient dragon tongue, symbolizes his complex and enigmatic character. Miraak remains a pivotal figure in the Elder Scrolls universe, inspiring awe and caution among those who encounter his story.
