Hello everyone. I've been playing The Elder Scrolls series since 2003, when Morrowind was released. But I find my lore to be limited when it comes to the Aedra. So here are a few questions I have on them:
1) As far as I've always known, the Aedra sacrificed themselves to create Nirn. Now I've also heard because of this, they are considered dead gods. Now my question is: Are the Aedra dead? Or did they just sacrifice a portion of their power, leaving them weakened?
2) If the Aedra are dead. How is it their are still able to manifest avatars of themselves on Nirn? For example: Akatosh vs Mehrunes Dagon. Also I remember during the Imperial Cult questline in Morrowind, you met a few Aedric avatars. Can't remember there names though.
3) Aspects? What are they? Are they parts of a god themselves? Or something else?
4) Lorkhan is he dead dead? Or just in a weakened state?
5) Also what is the difference between, Lorkhan, Shor, Sheor, Shezarr, and The Greedy Man? I always thought they were the same thing? Just different names for Lorkhan.
Well that's all my questions for now. If I remember anymore I'll post them.
