I have never played an Elder Scrolls game in my life (I have Skyrim in my depressingly large backlog but that's as close as I have come) so I don't know! How significant are the background figures to the main story (if you removed them, would there be a coherent story or would there be no real story at all, I suppose)?

I'll have to think (or play) Avengers Academy as on the one hand it sounds pretty crack-tastic, but on the other I don't want a situation where this becomes an avenue to allow people to request the MCU at large, for example.
