I still don't understand Jyggalag. His sphere is 'Order'. What does that have to do with Chaos, and how is he a Daedra if he's defined by Order. In other words, Jyggalag sounds more in line with Anu than Padomay, whereas Sheogorath is more Padomay than Anu. I understand why he's not et'Ada but Jyggalag always struck me as an 'other' candidate, like the Magne Ge. Sheogorath though fits the Daedra style, in the same vein that Malacath is a daedra: Daedra by conversion. There's only 3 daedra that fall in this arena as far as I'm aware: Meridian, Sheogorath, and Malacath. Then again perhaps the other daedra were converted at one point as well.
On another topic, I've always wondered what the relationship might be between Magnus and Herma Mora, and if it were possible that they are either two opposing factions (one Anu (order) aligned and one Padomay (chaos) aligned) or if they are in fact two sides of the same coin (Think Two-Face from Batman).

Not only that but you can't really measure daedric princes strengths. None of them seem to be stronger than the other. Mortals seen to think some are stronger, but that has more to do with those princes being more dangerous to them and tries to destroy the world and stuff.
So of all 5 year old polls to necro, this one is bad. Bad necromancer!

Hermaeus Mora may have all the knowledge in the world, but Jyggalag could get anything done if he wanted to. Sheogorath can't do that and that's why all the other Princes made him.
There are only four Daedra that have entire races at their disposal. The Three Good Daedra and Malacath. Now, I figure that Boethiah would be the strongest of the Three because not only do us Dunmer credit her with the majority of our cultural advances, but she was the one that struck down the Aedra Trinimac and formed him into Malacath. That takes quite a bit of power.
She's obviously influential and she obviously is quite powerful. No other Daedra has performed such an action. Jyggalag may be organised enough to accomplish anything, but it's Boethiah who holds the raw power.
Yeah, Jyggalag IMO

Who? I never heard of a Daedric Prince by that name. Something in a lore book I forgot?
Molag Bal is intimidating (love his taunts at the dolmens ) but maybe he’s overcompensating and his bark is worse than his bite.
Mehrunes Dagon is apparently try and fail at the same thing twice? Hmmm...
Hermaeus Mora has great knowledge and probably also the greatest wisdom of the Daedra and is above feeling a need to prove his power.

Jyggalag was the Daedric Prince of Order. His realm was so massive and his armies ever expanding it that the other Daedric Princes became fearful. They ganged together and cursed him to madness, changing him into the very opposite of what he stood for: Sheogorath. Every few hundred years, Jyggalag gets to come out to play via the Grey March where he undoes the Shivering Isles, only to fall back under the curse and return as Sheogorath.

Is that just in an Oblivion expansion or have their been references elsewhere? Just curious...
But it seems he was not so very powerful after all if his very nature was completely altered by the other Daedric Princes...
