Before we begin, these are purely for role-playing/fan creation content and the only Canon backing for these are: Dragons bodies are stronger and bigger than human/mer/etc.
Shouts are made for dragons. They'd have effects on the mortal body. Probably...
Anyway:
Using frost or fire breath leaves your mouth tasting of ice or ash, same with any other elemental breath. These shouts can also leave either burning or frostbite around the mouth
Aura whisper leaves your eyes glowing softly, and has a blinding effect for a moment after use
Dragon Aspect was made by Miraak, and acts as if it were a physical armor
Physical draining or controlling shouts can give the user either a massive migraine or nausea, a price for controlling other beings
Wind sprint one is used by dragons to propel themselves in the air
Become ethereal leaves a weird feeling of numbness after use
Not exactly a shout orientated hc, but dovakiins tend to have a natural understanding of the dov language. As well as a slight resistance to the effects of each shout, but this is not by much
Dragonrend when used can affect the user by making them feel heavier until it wears off. While it brings dragons down from the sky, it can bring a mortal to their knees if hit directly
Unrelenting Force can pull or jerk the user forward with its use
Battle Fury makes those affected feel sluggish or tired after
Cyclone and disarm can all affect the user, which makes using them a bit tricky in battle
Kyne's peace brings a sense of calm over those affected and the user, it's a nice feeling
Slow time can disorient the users perception, but this can be managed, and the user can get used to it
Clear skies and Call Storm cannot be used in tandem, and do not affect each other
Call of Valor and any shout that calls a Dragon do just that, call to someone, anyone in the area can hear it, especially dragons. This can be used to call any name if said/shouted in a right way.
Unrelenting Force and Whirlwind Sprint; They can break bones if overused; Jaw, legs, ribs mainly but other bones as well
Uuuuh,, thoughts?
Idk, didn't see anyone make any headcanons for the dragon shouts themselves, thought it would be fun.
Probably missed some, sorry 😔
