The most ingenious post ever

 

What makes a person mad?? is it just a person who thinks he's mad but in a sense he's sane- Sheo's probably one of the smartest Daedric princes around probably because he wants to be left alone, so he reinvents himself as being totally mad, but is he, is it that its his "smart" plan to out do the rest or he Daedric princes, or princess's, or he "wants" that image of insanity. You can't make up your mind that your mad or crazy, its a mental state of mind, anyone can think you are mad, but to be truly mad, you must have some sort of mental illness that can't be changed or reasoned with, unlike Sheogorath you can talk to him in a civilized manner. How does one define true madness, a person that talks all weird or is brain dead??? I believe the population has a certain illness that can't be fixed, but Sheogorath is a different story.

Madness is an entirely subjective definition.

 

There is no objective medical, sociological or even semantic criteria that can really be applied to form an unchanging definition. In RL or games.

 

Mad is as indefinable as beautiful is. The closest you can get is something like "one whose mental processes are considered to fall x degree outside the recognised averages or norms".

 

But the guy's a Daedric lord. What is the recognised average or norm for the mental processes of Daedric lords? There aren't even enough of them to form a large enough sample group to calculate an average for starters.

 

Comparing to Tamrielic or Earth humans is equally pointless, as it's an apples and oranges comparison.

 

Therefore, it is literally impossible for a Daedric lord to be either mad or sane, because madness and sanity can only be defined subjectively, and there is no available appropriate basis for any such subjective comparison.
