Which Daedric Prince would you want to be?

[Peteron]

Hircine is my man. That guys a boss.

 

[MorsePacific]

Nocturnal, for obvious reasons. I mean have you seen her...ravens?

In reality, Mehrunes Dagon, because he was such a badass in Oblivion.

 

[Right Hook]

I gotta go with Hermaeus Mora, as someone who studies philosophy, the idea of unfathomable knowledge and memory is impossible to pass up. Also he isn't forced into a good or an evil role which would leave me more free in my pursuits. My second choice would be Sheogorath because that would be lots of fun.

 

[M-E-D The Poet]

There has been one or two threads about Elder Scroll religions and which ones people would worship, quite a few people chose one of the Daedric Princes. I thought it'd be interesting to see which prince people would want to be.

So for whatever reason you choose, which Daedric Prince would you want to be?

Spoiler: Here is the list of all the Daedric Princes and what their "specialty' is for anyone who does not know them.

Azura- Lord of Dusk and Dawn, the magic between Day and Night.
Boethiah- Prince of Plots, who rules over deceit, conspiracy, secret plots of murder, assassination, treason, and unlawful overthrow of authority.
Clavicus Vile- Clavicus Vile's sphere is of wishes and eldritch deals. (He is best known for granting wishes, often in ways that turn out poorly for the recipient.)
Hermaeus Mora- Prince of knowledge and memory, his sphere is the scrying of the tides of Fate, of the past and future as read in the stars and heavens.
Hircine- Whose sphere is the hunt, the sports of Daedra, the greatest game, the chase and sacrifice of mortals; known by the names The Huntsman of The Princes, and The Father of Manbeasts.
Malacath- Malacath's sphere is the patronage of the spurned and ostracized, the sworn oath, and the bloody curse.
Mehrunes Dagon-Prince of Destruction, Change, Revolution, Energy, and Ambition.
Mephala- Mephala is the Webspinner, or the Spider God.
Meridia- Prince of Life and Lady of Infinite Energies.
Molag Bal- Domination and enslavement of mortals.
Namira- Sphere of repulsive things.
Nocturnal- Prince whose sphere is the night and darkness. (Thieves guild are her well known followers)
Peryite- Prince whose sphere is Pestilence, and he is charged with ordering the lowest levels of Oblivion.
Sanguine- Prince whose sphere is hedonistic revelry and debauchery, and passionate indulgences of darker natures.
Sheogorath- Sheogorath is the infamous Prince of Madness. (Cheese for everyone!)
Vaermina- Prince whose sphere is the realm of dreams and nightmares
Jyggalag- Prince Of Order (He was at one time a powerful Prince, so powerful, however, that the other Princes began to fear his power)

As for me, I'd probably want to be Hircine the most, he does have all were-beasts on his side after all.

And just as I suspected, so much love for Sheogorath.

Sanguine is whom the dark brotherhood follows btw

Remembering the first sanctuary in oblivion, the door it's markings/picture and the code word (something like sanguine is the night)

 

[tobi the good boy]

I absolutely love Sheogorath but I wouldn't want to be him. I'd be too unpredictable and likely end up sacrificing my Daedric powers for a cabbage or something.

Molag Bal would be interesting, but I'm not sadistic enough to enjoy it in its entirety

Probably, Clavicus Vile. Why? Well for starters, I like fucking with people. I also like dogs.

Actually you'll find that Sanguine was a reference to the definition which means Blood-Red.
"What is the colour of night?" "Sanguine(Blood Red), My brother."
The Dark Brotherhood has always held patronage to Sithis and the Night Mother.

 

[The_Blue_Rider]

I love you Sheogorath, but ima have to go with Hircine, the guy invented Werewolves for crying out loud

 

[Syphous]

Who do I want to be?? Oh man I dunno. I love Sheogorath but I don't want to be him. Maybe... Sanguine? The Daedric prince of debauchery. That could be fun. Plus he's pretty badass looking.

 

[Vegosiux]

Nocturnal.

All shadowy and subtle.

 

[Taberj45]

Hircine!!!!

 

[Supertegwyn]

Sheogorath, closely followed by Sanguine. Boy I love them both.

 

[Freaky Lou]

Definitely not Nocturnal. She keeps getting all her artifacts stolen.

I think I'd pick Hermaus Mora 'cause of how vague and obscure he is. I'm feeling isolationist right now.

... The Prince of Hipsters?

I was thinking vague and obscure as in no one's really sure what he does. But Prince of Hipsters isn't something I'm necessarily opposed to being, either, so wins all around.

 

[Ruedyn]

Sheogorath Because it would double the fun as it were.

So your saying the fun would be doubled? Interesting.

OT: Sheogorath, obviously. I'm sure everyone else could jump rope with their enemies intestines, but as Sheogorath people would expect you to. Plus CHEESE FOR EVERYONE!

You're the prince of madness. If they expect you to do anything, you need to do something else, or i'm pretty sure you'd get your powers revoked.

OT: Sheogorath or Sanguine. Sanguine because I already live like him, just add women to the equation. Sheogorath for the ability to replace your innards with cheese or turn your torso into a chain. I already have alot of insane ideas.

 

[ThaBenMan]

Clavicus Vile - he seems so jolly and always seems to be having a good time. He's like the Supreme Troll of the Daedra. Problem, Tamriel?

 

[Riddle78]

First choice?

Jyggalag. The forces of the universe will bend to me,solely because I demand my brand of order to be imposed on them. I'm a bit of a control freak...

Second choice would be Sanguine. Why? I'd enjoy myself to the utmost extreme...Because I'm the god of endulging my fantasies and desires. And those of others. But only if I find it fun.

 

[JaceArveduin]

The first answer off the top of my head is Sheogorath, cause I loved the guy in Oblivion.

After reading over them, I also would mind being Clavicus, he seems to remind me of Calypso form the Twisted Metal series, and I loved his way of granting wishes!

 

[BenTheNinja]

I think Hircine or Clavicus Vile would be pretty fun, but like most everyone I would love being Sheogorath. I mean he is the prince of madness right? Sanguine would be awesome too

 

[triggrhappy94]

Clavicu Vile. He seems to be fun. I think one of the loading screens even said he was one of the more powerful Daedric

 

[Nevrak]

Jyggalag without a doubt
