This is going to make things complicated... I'm still working under the concept that my character is ALSO the Nerevarine... so... all that and Azura... twice?

well in my canon My char was actually sheagorrath untill that imposter took over after 200 years of ruling the shivering isles peacefully so Im pretty sure i'd never die since Im a daedra (me becoming daedra happened to my khajjit named pat8u in the last game therefore he is daedra in this game)
also if your wondering how my charater is the chosen one in All the games is because well hes lucky ok also Im pretty sure talos blessed him with dragonbornship in skyrim as thanks to what he did in oblivion

Sithis IS the void.
You say that like you know what the void is. The only void in ES lore is the void of Oblivion, which is quite different.

Sithis is a merish philosophical construct referring to Padomay. The Dark Brotherhood, led by the Night Mother (who could be and probably is any number of things), appropriated this belief and misconstrued it into a deity, morphing it into Lorkhan (as the actual deity who brought death to the cosmos through the idea of mortal creation) in the process.

When the dark brotherhood kills, the victims soul's are sent to him.
And people think souls go to Aetherius to be happy forever, when in reality they just swing through on their way back to amnesiac reincarnation.

Souls are cheap. You don't have to as powerful as a daedra to use them as tools.

Also at the end of the DB chain in oblivion, when Arquen tells the nightmother that the black hand had killed the traitor, lucien lachance, the night mother replied "no lachance was not the traitor, his soul sits in the void, at Sithis' right hand" or something to that effect.
So they void has hands now? And a gender? It's cult jargon.
Im speculating that the night mother is a daedra and the corpse her shrine, and sithis could be her realm of oblivion and every db member who dies serves her in death

Patronising? :eek:
No no, there's just a bit of a... change, at the end of the quest line. Sorry, I didn't mean it like that. :p

I asked this same question, well almost the same, to a friend. We couldn't figure out who your soul will go to. I mean, most of the Deadra you do quests for have a claim on your soul because you become their Champion.

MISUNDERSTANDINGS. They're everywhere... :p
The greatest misunderstanding of all is that people assume when I say [HEADING=3]"I will devour your soul and trap it in a Petty Gem to feed my ever hungry flaming sword"[/HEADING] that I'm joking.
HAHAHAHA.
Isn't life funny. o.o

One of the issues with Skyrim in my opinion. I ended up doing all the various Daedric and guild quests, because I wanted to see what they are like, but it ruined any role playing I might have done with the character.

A bigger problem connected to this is that they make these quests so that anyone can do them, but it waters down the experience since none of the Theives guild quests require mastery of theivery, none of the College quests require mastery of magic, etc....


Oh Oh OH! and while we are on the subject.... This kind of "everyone has to be able to do every quest" is probably the reason there aren't *crafting* quest lines. I would love for a modder to add a blacksmithing questline which has you crafting better and better armor and looking for better and better ingredients.

If it was between more chaotic/envious Daedra, there'd be a problem, but Hircine and Nocturnal both aren't very confrontational.

Call me when you're dual-wielding the Mace of Molag Bal and Mehrune's Razor.

Okay. I'm here.
And let me tell you, it's a deadly combination. :D

My plan is to get someone to cast soul trap on me and laugh about it when I'm used to re-charge a weapon. :3

Pfft...

Be a servant of Hircine or Nocturnal? As if.

I'm the Champion of Hermaeus Mora, Prince of lost secrets, Demon of Knowledge.



Why should I follow those that are incapable of knowing the real truths of the world?
Because they give you shiny, unique armor, while all hermaeus gives you is a bunch of skill levels that can easily be gained elsewhere.

A better question would be a werewolf, nightingale, or Dark Brother.

What happens when Sithis, Nocturnal, and Hircine go at it over a soul?
Sithus would win by forfeit. The others would see nothing they do is as bad as him. Hes gotta be pissed after all the "warming my bone" nasty stuff you did with his wife.

So I belong to Nocturnal and Hircine, I'm a servant of Sithis AND I'm a champion of like seven other immortal beings?

Sigh... I wish Shivering Isles was in Skyrim so I could just BECOME a Daedra. Sheogorath is too erratic for the others to get their smelly hands on, he'll just turn them into a chicken.
Yeah, it's one of the main flaws with the game. This coming from a TES enthusiast, the writing is just lazy. Well, let's make him the chosen one... of everybody. Also, Alduin saves you from your execution because... fate. Fate/destiny is a lazy explanation for why things occur in fiction. They just couldn't be bothered to come up with something decent, now I would shrug that off if the questlines were actually fun to play but many of the faction quests are just go here, kill/get person/item and bring it back. Urgh, it's frustrating. I hope the DLC/expansion(s) add something worthwhile like Shivering Isles.

But when you do that quest when level 55+ those skill levels are HUGE. Plus you can buy/craft/enchant better everything than most of what the Daedra give you (notable exceptions are nifty hats and the Wabbajack which are rewards given for keeping a few Daedra company rather than being their BFFs like most want you to).

Heh the daedra have no control over my soul, however since I've done my best to screw over each and every one of them (including using the black star on Azura's priestess as the first victim, heh I thought you goddess could see the future and protect you). I'm sure they are all going to send their followers to try and kill me and somehow harvest my soul for their chosen daedra. I know most of the time screwing over the daedra means I don't get their artifact but I take extreme pleasure in bringing them down a notch and any worshipper I come across I kill. It would be nice when the construction set comes out to create a mod where you could corrupt/purify each of their artifacts to remove it from their power (Mehrunes Dagon Healing Shiv).

SPOILER ALERT!

If you're that concerned about it, you can always cure your lycanthropy. Just drop one of the Glenmoril Witches heads into the vat you used to cure Kodlak Whitemane, and you don't have to worry about being a werewolf anymore. And, you'll get your Well Rested bonuses back from sleeping in a bed.

Well, if you dig around in the Elder Scrolls creation myths, Sithis is more than an Aedra or Daedra, so my money is on Sithis.
Isn't Sithis the closest analogue to a christian style super-God in the TES series? He created the universe (accidentally) and was displeased when it didn't go away, so now he's all about death and ending everything?

My bet is on Hircine. It is kind of implied that having beast blood trumps everything else after death. Plus, Nocturnal doesn't really care all that much and Sithis doesn't get involved in this kind of thing.

The last one you pledged your soul to, in the companions questline the Nord wanted to go to Soverngarde, but he became a werewolf later in life and was claimed by Hircine.
