With an array of bone-crushing flesh-ripping weaponry, The Dragonborn is more than equipped to explore the vast land of Skyrim and all the life-threatening dangers that wait for them around every snow-draped rock. In addition to their arsenal of life-ending tools, they also have the unique ability to unleashes deadly Dragon Shouts upon anyone who so much as looks at them wrong.
These shouts make the Dragonborn an almost unbeatable opponent, giving them the ability to control animals, take an opponent's weapon, or even slow downtime. However, The Dragonborn is not unbeatable, here are 5 video game heroes they couldn't slay, and 5 they could.
Can't: Doom Slayer
The Doom Slayer aka Doom Guy has proven time and again that he shouldn't be underestimated, and although The Dragonborn may have an array of magical shouts, Doom Slayer has seen far worse. With possibly the best selection of weapons any video game character has ever held, Doom Slayer could easily give The Dragonborn a run for his money.
In addition to this, his bloodthirsty and psychotic approach to every conflict would make him a worthy opponent. This is a guy who has literally been to hell and fought ever demonic creature imaginable, possibly making The Dragonborn one of his easier victories.
Can: Lara Croft
Lara Croft is not only one of the most recognizable video game heroes, but also a great archeologist, and has survived more than her fair share of near-death experiences. She possesses a deadly arsenal of weapons but favors her pistols and bow.
On top of all that she has the agility of an Olympian, giving her an edge over all her enemies. But despite all these fantastic qualities, Lara would be simply outmatched by the powers of The Dragonborn. Although she has faced many supernatural foes in her time, this would undoubtedly be one fight she couldn't win.
Can't: Link
While it's true that The Dragonborn is a deadly opponent, and has gone toe-to-toe with giants, dragons, and all manner of enemies, Link would still defeat them due to his immense skills.
As a seasoned adventurer, Link has saved his kingdom more than just a few times and has fought enemies with abilities that make The Dragonborn's shouts look like party tricks. His experience in combination with his masterful skills with all his weapons makes Link more than a worthy opponent.
Can: Ezio
Featured in multiple Assassin's Creed games, Ezio proved to be the master of stealth. His climbing abilities remain unparalleled and his hidden blades offer the assassin an unexpected point of attack.
While all these qualities are impressive, when compared to the powers of The Dragonborn they would see Ezio easily defeated. His stealthy abilities would see him get close, but would ultimately be overwhelmed by The Dragonborn's power.
Can't: Sonic
Although he may look cute and cuddly Many abilities include super-speed, which would challenge even the most seasoned fighters, but he also possesses the unique ability to stay alive as long as he still possesses one ring.
This makes him incredibly difficult to put down for good. That's not even mentioning Sonic's super from, which he gains after collecting all 7 chaos emeralds, transforming him into a being of immeasurable god-like power.
Can: Nathan Drake
Nathan Drake has used his unparalleled wits, in combination with his trusty guns to uncover some of the most impressive hidden wonders the world has to offer. While his skill set makes him spectacular at his treasure hunting day job, it would only get him so far when confronted with The Dragonborn.
Shooting the Dragonborn will only get Mr. Drake so far, and while there's no doubt that an environmental puzzle could bring an ancient tomb crashing down upon his enemy, The Dragonborn would crush Drake with relative ease.
Can't: Kratos
Kratos went up against the gods and won, and while the Dragonborn has some powers that would prove challenging they are inconsequential when compared to the powers of Zeus.
With unparalleled fighting experience, in combination with a rage unlike any other, Kratos would brutally destroy the Dragonborn as he did so many gods. While he may be significantly more chill than he once was, Kratos still know how to access his spartan rage and unleash devastation.
Can: Master Cheif
Master Cheif would prove to be a worthy foe for The Dragonborn. The spartan warrior is a seasoned fighter who has saved the galaxy on more than one occasion. He is a master of his deadly arsenal and his shielded armor makes him difficult to bring down.
This would make The Dragonborn's sword's and axes ineffective, against his advanced weaponry. But the deadly array of shouts at the disposal of The Dragonborn would mark the end of Master Cheif's long career.
Can't: Geralt
As a Witcher, Geralt is no stranger to combat and has traveled the land fighting all manner of deadly creatures. Much like The Dragonborn, Geralt has access to magical abilities unlike any other. Including the ability to set his foes on fire, and cast a protective shield around himself.
Both fighters would challenge each other in unexpected ways, but it's almost certain that Geralt would emerge as the victor, due in large part to his extensive combat experience.
Can: Vault Dweller
The Vault Dweller featured in any post-apocalyptic wastes and survive against all the odds.
Possessing an actual nuclear missle, The Vault Dweller could easily overwhelm their opponent and defeat the Dragonborn. While the fight could go either way, The Dragonborn's time-shifting powers would no doubt come in handy and give them the edge.
