Gods in Mortal Form

WhiteCoatSyndrome · November 2017

How many can we find?

Note: for the purpose of this thread, Daedric Princes count.

Deshaan:

Creeper/Barbas - thank you @Vuldovahkriid!

Eastmarch:

Aspera Giant-Friend/Boethiah

Grahtwood:

Daraneth/Sheogorath (I'm sketchy about counting these two, since Daraneth was possessed by Sheo rather than actually being Sheo, but worth a note anyway)

Coldharbour:

The Groundskeeper/Meridia

Craglorn:

The Mage's aspects - Valla, Ahlora, Mahlia, Faryan
Hara/The Celestial Thief

Vvardenfell:

Archcanon Tarvus/Barbas

Creeper in Mournhold Outlaw Refuge, is also Barbas.

@Vuldovahkriid: Forgot him! I'll add him to the list.

Deshaan has this character, Aspera the Forgotten, whom (IMO, but I'm pretty sure) also is Boethia (unless I'm mistaken, of course.)

Yes; she also appears as Aspera Giant-Friend and Aspera Arena-Friend in Eastmarch and the Dragonstar Arena respectively.

Stolen divinity aside, Vivek (Vvardenfell), Almalexia (Deshaan), and Sotha Sil (Clockwork City) still count.

This is purely speculative but maybe the player character counts as Shezarr (sp?).

EDIT: Nocturnal also makes an appearance at the end of CWC's main quest-line.

I don't count the Tribunal because:

1.) It's questionable whether they count as gods in the first place, given that they need to keep recharging.
2.) They aren't in mortal form, that's their ONLY form.

You're never going to mistake them for anything other than themselves.

That one orc in place where orcs do orc-stuff.

This is actually a very common theory throughout the fan-base, with regards to every TES game; that theory being that the Hero is a Shezarrine. But is it correct to consider an avatar of a god as a god in mortal form if they do not know it themselves?

This is why I left Captain Caudex and friends off the list.
