After defeating the Prince of Destruction, the Aspect of Akatosh turned to stone and became a reminder of what happened … (Before the ages of man, TES IV and V) It might even be that Alduin has a similar, but weaker effect on mundus as the aedra, which would explain why he is called the worldeater.

The common reasoning behind his many plots is his belief that Tamriel is in fact a plane of Oblivion which is rightly his. The Nerevarine was a lot more powerful than the Dragonborn, and could barely handle Dagoth Ur, who like a bootleg demi-god. The reason for his shape changing, was Auri-El changing into Akatosh. Sheo/Jyg isn't a good example. He simultaneously always existed, and didn't exist until he was created. The next flaw with your theory is that Auri'el isn't a god of men nor a god of mer, he is the god of time that takes whatever form he likes, since all the et'Ada have no real form other than the one they choose for themselves at a certain moment. As for Akatosh defeating Dagon, well Dagon was previously banished by Almalexia and Sotha Sil as well. Forum Posts. Thank you. Alduin seems like a simple super villain. The daedric princes presumably have utter dominion over countless realms of oblivion giving them pseudo multiversal power, but it's one of those, "Said, never shown" levels of power, and he frankly has been "beaten" kind of by mere mortals before. Archived. He constantly invaded Tamriel relentlessly from the First Era onward.The most famous of Dagon's invasions of Morrow… Also the hero of kvatch kind of foils everything he ever does.

They had lobotomized TIME itself. The part of him that is Alduin the world-eater rightfully wants to consume all of creation so it can all happen again in a different cycle. A subset of the Alyssian Order (which was basically the Spanish Inquisition) known as the Makurathi Selectives got royally pissed off at their Chief God being an Elf. Think of him as a single facet of a massive gemstone, known as Lorkhan. You cannot argue with algebraic terms. He constantly invaded Tamriel relentlessly from the First Era onward. Press J to jump to the feed. The other time was an indirect confrontation where his children simply drained from across the realms. As in: Monotheistic, Abrahamic, Capital-G, God. Well, he honestly doesn't seem all that powerful then. The biggest shards became formed by mythopoeia and sheer will, and took on the roles of the current time-gods. Mehrunes Dagon strikes me as a murderous jerk with power. The details of what happened are beyond our mortal scope, at least so long as we use such a limited language to describe the events. Dear god, just stop. *Runny mascara and snot bubble. I'll back Trigon here. Trigon was toying with the Titans prior to Raven performing that task though and actually conquered the Earth like he wanted. The blade itself is unique, sporting a curved crossguard, a black metal inset inside the blade, and a pommel stone unique only to this dagger. Forum Posts . This has broken his purpose, and left him weaker. If akatosh wanted to destroy mundus, he would just go there himself. The most he's legit done is blow up a city but whenever he got let loose one of the other gods in the elder scrolls verse like Akatosh had to banish him back. well he opened the oblivion gates and released an infinite dremora army on tamriel and was about to conquer the entire planet, but the Chief of the Gods Akatosh himself had to fight him to stop him. - Martin transformed into a dragon and beat Mehrunes Dagon - Dragonborn slays dragons on a regular basis - Dragonborn could prob kill Mehrunes Dagon He didn't turn into just a dragon, he turned into an avatar of Akatosh. @dredeuced: he never shows it cause he gets severely weakened every time he enters a mortal plain of existance. @juiceboks: He's your generic evil demon godlike being from another dimension with presumably unlimited power but never shows much of it. His spheres are destruction, change, revolution, energy, and ambition. New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be cast. It's a big jumbled mess of mythos with no clear cut levels to make debating it simplified. The Dragon became the Animal Aspect for the God that was produced by the two being merged: Akatosh. There are some Khajiit who say it was a thousand years and a day of timlessness. Makes for a more interesting universe, but a less clear battle forum debate topic, heh. As all dragons are shards of Aka, the time-oversoul, birth is a non-thing for them. Nirn is usually refered to as a female, though I don't think the concepts of male and female can be applied to beings more abstract and more conceptual than then et'Ada, since not even Daedra are really male or female.). Mehrunes Dagon is a Daedra. Mehrunes Dagon is the foe of all mortal races, and has attempted to conquer the physical world Nirn many times. Alduin is an aspect of Akatosh. You see, after the Slave Uprising that lead to Saint/Empress Alyssia the Slave Queen taking the Ruby Throne and establishing the First Empire, most humans' perspective on the Elves was rather... negative. Still, he said this to give himself entitlement to rule over the other dragons and the races that bowed to him (Dragon Cult). Report.

And after the CoC, the two are completely different entities (CoC mantled and became Sheogorath, while Jyg is hiding off somewhere). Sheogorath was a trap and prison that the other daedra lords applied to Jyggalag, one that the latter got an occasional break from, but not actually freed from until the CoC came along. The simplest explaination is, however, very easy to describe in this language. Mehrunes Dagon vs Trigon Brolytard1337. Other theories say he is the child of Anu and Nirn (Nirn being, at the same time, the planet Nirn, the plane mundus and a being in the void, similar to Anu and Padomay, but at the same time none of those. User Info: VampLordAdamaru. Auri-El on the other hand is a Aspect of Aka-Tusk, who is an aspect of Aka, who is an aspect of Anu who is *STASIS. Like, when he's not depowered he battles evenly with the Elder Scroll's universe gods, but then you have to extrapolate how powerful those guys are and blah blah.

He was an Eagle-Motiefed God known as Auri-El, the head of the Aldmeri Pantheon. VampLordAdamaru 10 years ago #7. Can we finally have Daedric Princes of Oblivion in the game as well? TIL TES Religion makes about as much sense as real world religion. So the selectives grabbed the first God they could get their hands on: Shezzar. I don't know if it was the way you wrote it, but before I've never actually understood the whole Alduin/Akatosh thing. The Selectives, as THE GODHEAD realized what they had done and paniced. So it's more like the guys he fights have the implied power but it's difficult to determine how powerful they really are.

It's not Dagon's job to destroy Mundus. In Elder Scrolls Oblivion: Avatar of Akatosh power was enough to beat Mehrunes Dagon who is one of the seventeen Daedric Princes of Oblivion. "As the Gods walked, the physical make-up of the mortal plane and even the timeless continuity of existence itself became unstable." This, of course, was a major screw-up and lead to one of the earliest recorded Dragon Breaks in history. Alduin might be the First-Born of Akatosh, but they're still completely different. It's like trying to decipher power levels in Tolkien's books.
