Greybeards

The Greybeards are small cult of Masters of the Voice who reside in High Hrothgar, high on Skyrim's Throat of the World.

History
They were founded by Jurgen Windcaller, also known as Jurgen the Calm, who teaches that the Voice is supposed to be used only for glory and worship of the gods and not as a means to win wars. They reside in ancient monastery of High Hrothgar and have been known to teach those of the Dragon blood throughout history how to use the Voice.

Jurgen Windcaller
Jurgen Windcaller was one of the mightiest Tongues of the First Era. He, along his brothers and sisters Tongues, fought against the Dwemer in the battle of Red Mountain. He lost the battle, and after that, he started his Seven Year meditation to realise how could the strong Voices fail. He came to the conclusion that the gods punished the Nords for their arrogant usage of the Voice. He developed a pacifist way of learning the Voice called the Way of the Voice. Then he was known as Jurgen the Calm. He built his home high on the slopes of the Throat of the World. When he died, he was buried in Ustengrav, in north-western part of Skyrim.

Paarthurnax
Paarthurnax was Alduin's lieutenant during the Dragon war. Although, he and small group of others, pitied Men. The goddess Kyne had to intervene allowing the Nords the ability to Shout, as dragons do. She sent Paarthurnax to teach them the Thu'um. After the Dragon War, the Greybeards held him as a secret.
