A question. Why wish for external abilities connected to a phone when he can instead just wish to have the same capabilities innate within him. It would make it far easier to use and makes it less likely that it can be used against him?
I think 280 IQ is a bit limited. If he wanted to be smart he could have wished for a million things that would improve his mind more. He could have wished for an exponentially increasing IQ, or an IQ that improves over time, or a quantum mind that can be upgraded with tech, or the IQ of someone like Greymatter in Ben 10. Or something like the combined information and intelligence of [Insert characters like Rick Sanchez, Reed RIchards, Doctor Doom, Tony Stark, Bruce Wayne...]
One point you're missing that I think is INCREDIBLY important is lifespan. A nord's lifespan is around the same as normal humans (80-100). However, Altmer lifespans can be 300-500, while Dunmer can live 2-300 and Bosmer around 200. Who wouldn't want to live up to 500 as their natural lifespan? And this is without mentioning exending life through magic, something that will likely add more the longer the natural lifespan is and that the additional base lifespan can give the MC a ton of time to delve into magic that would essentially make them immortal. How could a nord's resistance against cold and being treated somewhat better compare to that????? Makes ZERO sense.
I love this story so far, keep it up! Also, an idea, couldn't Viserys have some people or red priests get the dragon eggs Illyrio Mopatis? They could likely steal them quietly, especially with the help of magic, and if not then buy them. Getting the dragons earlier would let them grow properly for the long night.
If he can get the greenseer ability, which is a magic ability inherited by blood, then how is the dragon/Targ bloodline any different? Even if he couldn't get the actual bloodline, he could still get all of the abilities/skills the person with that bloodline has.
One thing I'm wondering about a few chapters in the past. Why didn't the MC take any skills from Dany? She would probably have something like pure dragonlord bloodline, fire immunity/resistance, blood and fire magic talent, dragondream talent etc. Also maybe some sort of will skill that makes her able to stand up against almost anything done to her. Sure the MC also has dragonblood, but it's likely far less pure than Dany's. Also the combination of his natural bloodline talents combined with Dany's might give him even greater improvements.
I do wish we would get to know the MC's perspective a bit more from the internal side though. He's an SI, but we don't really get any insight into his long-term plan or his thoughts on being born into Dune. I'd love for a perspective more based on his thoughts and internal monologues.
You killed the fic when you changed planetos. Also, the Braniac AI would allow him to basically advance to Kryptonian tech so why is he not focused on technological advancement? His strength and abilities could allow him to kickstart the invention of electricity and its use, and then he could expand exponentially by always knowing the next step of the technology tree. The AI should easily be able to create designs for integrated circuits and computers based on the factors the MC already knows even if the AI doesn't have a massive database (although I would argue that the AI couldn't be on the level of Braniac without the same or similarly sized database as Braniac) and then the future expansion can continously be calculated. Such a waste of potential just to make some whiskey and act like a knight....
