You realise the Nine don't count as Daedra right? So I guess Mara, Kynareth or Dibella would be the answer.

Seriously...I vote for Ayrenn, by the end of the AD story. I don’t think Almalexia counts because she clearly has some sort of supernatural power (to defy gravity at least). Ayrenn is an experienced warrior and she has enormous political power.
The Vestige is also exempt, because they're (at least partially) Daedric, on account of their soul being bound to Cold Harbour, and their ability to reform after death as a result. They may have been mortal before they woke up in The Wailing Prison, but they're not afterwards.
Our Soul isnt bound to Coldharbor. At worst its held by Molag Bal which is then reclaimed from him at the final battle. We defeat him, releasing all the souls he stole. Meridia saves ours from being lost to Aetherius and we reclaim it. In actuality the Vestige's Soul is untethered, not bound to the Mundus or any plane. Its why we can just revive willy nilly after death and use Wayshrines.

@ZOS_GinaBruno obviously xD
Meridia is a Magna-ge. One of the original lot who fled to aetherius. Technically a daedra by original definition, aka not an ancestor of men/mer. But didn't become a daedric prince until she was kicked out effectively for dealing with daedra of new definition, those who reside in oblivion. Hence why she isn't evil.

Daedra/Aedra aren't good or evil, those are mortal concepts. Meridia's "friendly" to mortals and "hostile" to undead for her own reasons, because it advances her power, not out of any morality. She'd burn you to a crisp if it was useful to her.
If we leave off the Aedra, Daedra, and pseudo-aedra like Ayem, I'd list:
- Lady Montclair
- Lyris Titanborn, quarter-giant
- Gwendis Ravenwatch? She's more of a sneaky vamp than a straight-up fighter, but could take out any lesser mortal in a fight.
- Queen Ayrenn
Drake of Blades is beyond human now though.
My memory is too short to actually pick out a individual to nominate in the asskicking category.
If we're being abit abstract, I might say the Overseer in Vivec or perhaps even more so her wife for sticking with her :P

*SPOILERS INCOMING!*
This cousin of High King Emeric loses her husband and both her son and daughter all in different questlines. Yet this grieving widow confronts a traitor, takes on Septima Tharn (another powerful woman!), dons armor and fights at Emeric's side in a pretty epic battle. She does not let all her personal tragedy stop her from tending to the welfare of her people and being in all ways a Queen.
There's a reason my pirate character named her ship The Queen Arzhela's Revenge and is a total fangirl of Evermore's Queen! LOL

True, but I mean pure evil with distain for humans and the traditional daedric desire to tamper for no specific reason.Beamer_Miasma wrote: »The Wilderqueen (/Wilderking) easily beats Almalexia.

I doubt it. The wilderqueen is effectively tied to the green, which is part of yffre. Who isn't really all too powerful after giving so much power to order nature. Alma is probably stronger. She killed sotha sil, even in her weakened state, who has so much, non HoL related things. The HoL is probably the strongest artifact on nirn since it actively ties the world together, wheras yffres reach is more just the jungles the green is, and what she did before to order nature is spent.
