Favorite of The Nine Divines?

VDoom1

Who is your favorite of the nine Divines? (I am including Talos.)

For me it's Akatosh all the way. For one because he has saved our collective hides like 4 times. And he is the almighty Dragon God of Time, chief of the nine Divines.

9 Divines???

No love for Talos?

Akatosh

Though Dibella also has it´s point

VaranisArano

Stendarr

Stendarr, because you don't mess with Stendarr.

Seriously. Strike down a beggar while wearing the gloves of Stendarr and he will curse you and your descendents with a wasting disease that can only be removed by someone willing to take the curse upon themselves. Stendarr is good, but he is not a nice guy.

Most of the Divines really have this Good, but Not Nice vibe to them.

Mara, because she doesn't care who you fall in love with, so long as it is for love.

Talos doesn’t exist in the ESO timeline - think that’s what Sixty5 was getting at

Also my favourite is Akatosh, created dragons, enough said.

That is true! Since Tiber Septim died in the Third Era and became Talos. While ESO takes place in the Second Era.

But, I intended this poll as overall, across all eras aka Nine Divines.

Lorkhan does whether the Elves wish to admit it or not.

Dibella

whose talos? sounds like a deity that doesn't exist yet

Xvorg

Dibella

Is this even a question?

The question should've been the second favorite, and in that case Talos.

Talos

Talos the mighty! Talos the unerring! Talos the unassailable! To you we give praise!

We are but maggots, writhing in the filth of our own corruption! While you have ascended from the dung of mortality, and now walk among the stars!

But you were once man! Aye! And as man, you said, "Let me show you the power of Talos Stormcrown, born of the North, where my breath is long winter. I breathe now, in royalty, and reshape this land which is mine. I do this for you, Red Legions, for I love you."

Aye, love. Love! Even as man, great Talos cherished us. For he saw in us, in each of us, the future of Skyrim! The future of Tamriel!

And there it is, friends! The ugly truth! We are the children of man! Talos is the true god of man! Ascended from flesh, to rule the realm of spirit!

The very idea is inconceivable to our Elven overlords! Sharing the heavens with us? With man? Ha! They can barely tolerate our presence on earth!

Today, they take away your faith. But what of tomorrow? What then? Do the elves take your homes? Your businesses? Your children? Your very lives?

And what does the Empire do? Nothing! Nay, worse than nothing! The Imperial machine enforces the will of the Thalmor! Against its own people!

So rise up! Rise up, children of the Empire! Rise up, Stormcloaks! Embrace the word of mighty Talos, he who is both man and Divine!

For we are the children of man! And we shall inherit both the heavens and the earth! And we, not the Elves or their toadies, will rule Skyrim! Forever!

Terrible and powerful Talos! We, your unworthy servants, give praise! For only through your grace and benevolence may we truly reach enlightenment!

And deserve our praise you do, for we are one! Ere you ascended and the Eight became Nine, you walked among us, great Talos, not as god, but as man!

Trust in me, Whiterun! Trust in Heimskr! For I am the chosen of Talos! I alone have been anointed by the Ninth to spread his holy word

Julianos

Tiber Septim? The greatest warmonger Tamriel ever had? No thanks.


Julianos of the Eight, plus The Great Chapel of Julianos (Skingrad) is amazing as the city itself.

Can't vote, no option for "None".

No gods, no masters ...

Talos

Anything that angers the Thalmor and pleases my Nord father is good enough for me.

Dibella, hands down.

Dibella - You can't go wrong with a Goddess of *** and Lepers...

Hmm.. I suspect Vaermina and Dibella could come together in such fascinating ways.

And yet when I ask that windbag to tell me more about Talos, he tells me to go read a book.

Kynareth.

Mainly as I love Jeremy Soule's Wings of Kynareth from Oblivion.

Stendarr

There are only 8 devines.


And Talos.

I really don't like any type of tops or tell-me-your-favorite polls, but I was always fond of gods of the cycle, birth/death and such in different fantasy universes, because such deities represent one of the fundamental category of the mortal beings. Nevertheless, I don't share Arkay's followers prejudice regarding necromancy. Speaking of magic, Julianos is probably my second favorite god. Concept of Akatosh being time himself is peculiar from the lore perspective, I like it a lot too. Also, I find to be interesting idea of the knight order (Vigilants) based on the Stendarr belief... Overall, TES approach to the religion lore I find to be well-made, self-consistent and quite uncommon.

Azurya

the divine nine are fake gods!

as ashlander just that way!

Akatosh

I mean his avatar will literally save the world from Mehrunes Dagon.
