Chronos

People's lifespan can be siphoned or increased by giving them your own lifespan, it is an energy harnessable by magic but only through consented trade. Time magics are illegal to practice, and the enforcer is a dragon named Akatosh. Time magic is forbidden, but nearly impossible to trace by any except Akatosh himself Magic is actually a pretty rare gift, most people being mundane or gifted in martial arts Akatosh, the time dragon, cannot conventionally die. Since it exists all across time, having domain over it. Akatosh can exist in all points of time at once. So, slaying Akatosh causes a "Dragonbreak"- where all of time is broken for one infinite instant, a planck of time before Akatosh is once more. In this infinite instant, the one who slayed Akatosh assumes the godlike power of Akatosh, being able to do one thing with unlimited power before that single beat of time ends The collage of Mysticism sorts its students into 4 hourses. The four houses are, House Hawk, which primarily studies Destruction and Alteration, House Snake, which studies Illusion and Conjuration, House Goat, which studies Restoration and Necromancy, and lastly House Stoat, which studies Mysticism and Holy magic Theme is dreary and political

There was an old time wizard named Steezle who, through manipulations of time, caused a legendary Dragonbreak- a phenomenon where a distinct moment in time is permanently changed. It is named a Dragonbreak because it involves the "death" of Akatosh for that instant of the timeline, where occurring becomes a paradoxically infinite single moment where Steezle had the power of God but only for an instant before disappearing from reality all together. This Dragonbreak changed the world in ways scholars still debate feverishly, as they don't actually know what about the world changed, or what the old world was like
