iTeleportBread Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Hermaeus Mora, Daedric Prince of Knowledge, Fate and Knowing. It's said he's neither good nor evil, but in my opinion, his immorality and lack of empathy makes him worse than evil. He's manipulated a few otherwise impactful events into fruition, from tricking Elder Scroll scholar Septimus Signus into undoing a Dwemer seal on his favorite, and quite possibly the most dangerous book in Tamriel, the Oghma Infinium, to having a hand (or tentacle/tendril, I suppose) in the return of Miraak, the First Dragonborn who needs no explanation. Needless to say, Hermaeus Mora did a lot during the events of Skyrim and is very dangerous. It's my personal belief that he may be the most dangerous of the Daedric Princes because of his promise of knowledge and sphere of influence over fate, one seems common and innocent while both are highly seductive. Evil and danger don't always twiddle their mustache while promising conquest or destruction. Although Mora is clearly a hideous creature, the fact that he's a higher being not of this world sometimes gives him a sort of pass in some way that convinces people to overlook his appearance, while the real danger that wears an insidious mask isn't Hermaeus Mora himself, but rather, it's what being Hermaeus Mora is all about. Now, supposedly, Daedric Princes cannot be permanently killed. However, they can be banished or sealed away. Hermaeus Mora has got to go. My request is an immersive Questline mod that happens after you defeat Miraak, back home on Skyrim, where the Dragonborn decides to try and find a way to seal away Hermaeus Mora and banish him after all the dangerous things he used mortals into doing for him and more. Of all the Daedric Princes you encounter in Skyrim, Hermaeus Mora is the one who always bugged me the most, how you could never confront somebody so dangerous. He has proven himself time again that he is too much for mortals, using his selling points of knowledge and fate to seduce people into his terrible grasp.

JasperBark Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 I'd be down for this honestly. Some other mods have tackled the idea of fighting a daedric prince and turned out pretty well imo. I love the idea of going on an epic quest and using my literal divine artifacts like Dawnbreaker, Auriel's Bow and Shield, and the Staff of Magnus to fight an eldritch deity like ol' Mora.
