It is such that I have a drop down and I some information that I should throw into the database,

Right now gives me this one error:

The name 'ddlRoles' does not exist in the current context
My code: - brugere.fk_role is what I need to get "going" to the database.

KontoController.cs

C#

brugere.Fk_role = Convert.ToInt32(ddlRoles);

Opret.cshtml

C#

@Html.DropDownList("ddlRoles",
new SelectList(Model.Roles, "Id", "Name"), "Vælg",
new { @class = "form-control input-lg" })

How can it be that it will take "my" value into kontocontroller.cs

It is such that I must have the value from the drop down into the database so I will only have spoken out and looked over / into the database

dllRoles is a dropdown, you are passing the control to be converted to int32 (Convert.ToInt32(ddlRoles)), you need to test that dllRoles has a selected item then pass the selected items's value (dllroles.SelectedItem.ToString) to be converted to int32.
