Goldbrand.

As for favorite Daedra, I'm undecided.
As for least favorite, (in terms of personality) I hate Azura. Not saying she was badly written or anything, but just that she would be the last Daedra I would serve. I don't hate many things. But she's one of them. Poor Dagoth Ur.

That being said, I'd love to visit her realm to pillage and destroy it.

Thats rather a strawman argument considering the lengths I and many others have gone through to show her true nature.
Daggerfall dialogue not fitting and therefore being waved away is a typical mistake often made by bad scientists. If data doesnt fit the pre-conceived hypothesis the data is ignored or handwaved away. Its of course better to, when presented with new data, change the paradigm under which youre operating.
Then there is the dev quote floating around somewhere saying that 'Azura might not be as benevolent as she seems.'

Im sorry, but your assesment simply doesnt fit the facts.

And I've adressed those "facts". I don't consider a lot of Daggerfall stuff regarding the gods as valid as the other games and "operated" under that line of thinking before Azura was brought up.

And for the record, I don't think she's "good", I just think she's nowhere near the worst.

Oh but I never said she is, I said she is duplicious and that I prefer the direct approach.
I prefer Bal and some of the others over Azura because with Bal there is no pretence, what you see is what you get.
Thats a matter of preference and not of who is objectively the worst or best Daedra.

When talking about 'worst' and 'best' as in most heinous and most benevolent I think they are all in the same ballpark really.
Gods. Ineffable, above concepts of human morality and pursuing their own agenda which at times may be beneficial to mortal society and at other times detrimental.

Really? I think it fits perfectly. It sounds dark, cruel and sinister. Opposed to ... what? If he's meant to sound brutish and angry, I think that would suit more Mehrunes Dagon.

Bal sounds like he wants to creep up on you in a dark alleyway and ... do rather unpleasant things. Which, lets be honest, is exactly the type of thing that is ...

* puts glasses on *

right up his alley.

Hes a manipulative jerkass who loves to watch others do his dirty work and prostrate themselves to him. Seems pretty spot on if you ask me.

I personally want to see more of Peryite and his plague shenaniguns. He seemed to be up to something in Skyrim, or at least thats how it seemed at the end of his quest.

Hermaeus Mora has the sixiest voice in skyrim and his realm was probably the most interesting realm we've seen so far

Could be the same voice actor, I wouldn't know because I couldn't get into origins, I thought it was terribly generic.

The two overlap into one another. At least when you wake up after a night with Sanguine.

Seriously though, whimsical as he is, I have no doubts that the levels of potential depravity you can get yourself into would be disturbing at best.

I'd most like to see Azura's realm, but Sanguine's or Vaermina's would be great (these would get my "atmosphere" vote). Malacath, Molag Bal, or Mehrune Dagon's realms would get my vote for "exciting to visit".

I don't see why people would think we know all of the Princes. BGS just popped Jiggy out of nowhere, didn't they? And I don't see why there are lore requirements to a limit. I'm not saying I want new ones, or would be happy to see a new Prince every game, but I don't think it would be shocking to find out there are more.

Unsure about the Lorkhan thing, but it seems to me he'd be considered one of the Aedra, if anything. By defniition, Aedra just means "a Daedroth who helped (or was tricked) by Lorkhan". I'd also like to see/hear more about Mankar Camaron's rant. Myself and most forumites seem to think he was spewing nonsense, but some people believe he was revealing a big secret.

Sanguine's realm would be impossible because his realm is really 1000 pocket dimensions that are nothing but beer garden, harems, and everything in between.
