TESV:Skyrim- Modernity AU Summary

Year? 2144

Location? Skyrim/ Tamriel

Weaponry? Guns, some blasters, tanks, other common military hardware

Magic? Shouts? Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaasssssssssss

Bandits? Yes, but consider them a rogue band of insane weirdos rather than just a bunch of petty criminals.

Forsworn? Yes, and they are still just a bunch of magical bloodthirsty weirdos who live in the middle of frickin nowhere in the woods.

Imperials and Stormcloaks/ Civil War? Indeed. Just, much more modern/ futuristic.

Alduin? Fortunately for the story, yes. Although now he's like a cyborg dragon instead of a weird demon ghost monster thing…

Other races? Yes. Just, yes.

Dragonborn? Yes and no. Kinda.
