Where is it stated the Nerevarine is a warrior? In my game he's a Dunmer Battlemage.
I wish the Tribunal were still alive. That would've made this question easy as hell.
in my game hes a khajit skooma addict rotting away in the sewers of st olms, does that make him a useless [censored] in lore?
nerevar was a warlord, thus a great warrior, and so is the nerevarine
Nerevar, Indoril
When the Chimer race follows Veloth to the northeastern part of Tamriel (now Morrowind), in order to create a new nation based on daedric principles, they are many warring tribes, with no law or leader in common. The Dwemer who have already lived in the area accept the incoming Chimer suspiciously. The Dwemer are an atheist race that have faith on their own science and enchanting rather than Daedra or Aedra. They are known as a great enchanter.
One Chimeri warlord of Indoril clan, Nerevar, has the ambition to rule all the Chimer. In secret, Nerevar meets with a Dwemer smith for an enchanted ring that would help him rule and unite the Chimer tribes. The ring gives its wearer a great power of persuasion; for safety precaution, the ring is also enchanted to instantly kill anyone who wore it except Nerevar. The ring is known as Moon-and-Star. The ring helps Nerevar to finally unite the Chimer and also the Dwemer, destroy the occupying forces of Skyrim and form one powerful nation, the Kingdom of Resdayn. Nerevar and the king of Dwemer, Dumac Dwarf-Orc are known as the First Council.
