During the Imperial Simulacrum in the late Third Era, the city-state of Dawnstar was an active settlement, being ruled by King Ulrarne. It had a rivalry with Whiterun and Winterhold. Dawnstar was neighbored by several settlements, including Helarchen Creek to the southeast, Stonehills to the southwest, and Winterhold to the east.

In the late Third Era circa 3E 427, Dawnstar was a garrison town and exile post under Governor Cyril Vinticae. The Ice Tribes held a raid against the town and the Governor's four champions lead forces defending the assault. However, Vinticae rightfully suspected one of his champions of setting the Ice Tribes upon the town. Not knowing which among them was the traitor, he banished them all. He then sent for the soon-to-be Hero of Dawnstar to interrogate the champions and expose the traitor. Local healer Eustacia was ordered to assist in healing the Hero, and her oracular visions would prove crucial in the Hero's attempts to cut through the lies. The Hero braved beyond Dawnstar, gaining the banished champions' aid, questioning them about the battle, and cross-referencing their responses with Eustacia's fragmentary visions. Finally, the Hero revealed the true traitor, returning to Dawnstar with the three loyal champions. The Governor awarded the Hero the Starfrost, a magical frost that channels the prayers of Dawnstar and elemental winter through its user. The Ice Tribes and their forces then began their final attack, overwhelming the town's outer defenses, allowing some to slip through Dawnstar's walls. The hero defended the town, slaying the Ice Tribes and concluding the assault with the defeat of the Gehenoth Thriceborn.
