He was trying to take over the world with the Blight and the second Numidium.



That's Tribunal propaganda crap

all he was trying to do is turn every mortal in the world into a God, he want all people to have the gift of divinity

but he failed sadly :(

:facepalm:

Again, the Nerevarine still has the Corprus disease which makes him/her immune to diseases and aging. (S)he's immortal.



still could be dead to other reasons like falling in combat or something, would be a slap to the face of morrowind players, but it's feasable if the developers want to off the neverarine off-screen for some reason. :P

To say the trught if bethesda developers want to include the Nereverine, the only think they need is to make someone ask the player of the gender and race of said character and then give those characteristics to the nerevarine. Of course I don't think they will do it, as it's absolutelly unnecesary, but it's not imposible at all.

Consider the fact that none of the 3 roles you take from Arena to Morrowind has shown up in the flesh yet or never will. Read the previous posts in this topic.

Then realize why.

This isn't The Witcher. This isn't Mass Effect. It isn't Final Fantasy. It isn't Dragon Age. Nor Deus Ex.

Your character is mostly defined by you. Not the developers. You.

Vehk :P

Vehk can only be alive if you didn't kill him in Morrowind and in that case there is no reason for him to kill the Nerevarine.

He tried to swipe impure influences from Morrowind, by this point he was insane and thought that only the blood of House Dagoth was pure, thus he used a genetic disease-

After seeing the very murderers of his friend and king besmirching his honor by using the Heart, driving him to use it as well, accusing him of murdering Nerevar and using the Heart, actually building a religion around that lie, hunting down his family, and isolating and vilifying him for 4000 years, his insanity shouldn't be that surprising. Still his original motivations were honorful, although his actions were twisted in the end.

Much resemblance to Orestes, King Lear or even Anakin Skywalker - doing wrong/evil things out of good/honorful intent. Dagoth Ur is the tragic hero of the whole story, (of which the game Morrowind is just the epilogue.)

Roleplay it~ If your a Mer then you can live long enough to be in Skyrim~ I think Argonians/Khajiit can also live that long aswell, but im not sure~
Btw, i thought original Nerevar/Vivec/Almalexia/Sotha Sil were Altmer *hence why most of them have golden skin even after being turned into Dunmer by Azura~ They were only named Chimer because they broke off from the Altmer to pursue the life of daedra worshipers~ And turned to Dunmer after the betrayal of Nerevar~

He may be as powerfull as you want before and after Morrowind but not while Morrowind. The guy in the top of the temple was him, not an avatar.

Oh. and I continue without seing any reson for him to kill the Nerevarine.

Yeah I mean the hero from Morrowind who we played as. It would not be a lore breaking occurrence. It would make sense for him to be overseeing the dunmer who migrated there.. and to oversee the troubles of the civil war there.
Except, MY nerevarine doesn't give a [censored] rat's ass about the dunmer, or anyone for that matter. Seeing MW go boom would only annoy him, at best, as his book collection and priceless relics would have been destroyed. Someone else's nerevarine may have became the CoC, or did go on the expedition to Akavir. Fact of the matter is, the fate of the nerevarine after MW is left to the player, and solely the player. Bethesda was kind enough to allow this to continue on what we want to be the nerevarine's canonical actions and fate.

Also the nerevarine is a Dunmer in canonical terms.
Wrong. The fate of the nerevarine was purposely made very vague. To you, the nerevarine was dunmer. To me, it wasn't. And there is nothing contradictory or wrong with having any other race be the nerevarine. [censored], even the "prophecy" was incredibly vague.

Frankly, I don't want a nerevarine popping up, as it does establish a canonical fate to the nerevarine, instead of our own.

As for the fate of Vivec, it's also ambiguous. Personally, I prefer The Trial of Vivec fate.

The Nerevarine is probably never going back to Tamriel. He/She is too powerful and important of a figure to go unnoticed in the lore. The only way I can see it happening would be for the player to find a body decayed to a skeleton (to avoid lore conflicts on he/she's appearance) in some cave with a note written by the Nerevarine explaining the situation, Wraithguard, Sunder, and Keening.

Or....not even closely mention the nerevarine at all.

No need to revisit this, as the nerevarine's journey is over. The one writing the scrolls this time is the Dragonborn.

For me he will be. I am he, he is me. I've developed a whole backstory for my "Daiyus gro-Dyyg" character. I am playing Morrowind and Oblivion side by side with the same Birthsign and Skillset. They are one and the same person, just at different points in their life.

He leaves Orsinium as a blacksmiths son. He as an unnatural affinity for magic (as Orcs go). He holds Orc traditions highly (Close quarter combat, armouring/smithing). He utilised magic as well (Conjuration, Touch Destruction, Restoration, etc).

He gets caught and sent to Morrowind, becomes Nerevarine. He then wishes no more fame, and puts himself back in prison then Oblivion happens. He then grieves for Martin, Jauffre and Baurus. Goes mad, and Mantles Sheogorath. Two hundred years later he decides to go home via Skyrim........

And to add, a rumor for Beth to semi-write out the Nerevarine. It's a statement that is to be taken as being suspect, in order to allow the player in Oblivion to have their own canon fate of the nerevarine, but also keep the nerevarine out of the picture, should the player wants.

Logic aside.

But you know something VERY cool?
Wouldn't be interesting, since all the events throughout TES games are connected to the return of dragons, that actually each part of history had a part of with Alduin's return? I mean, actively.

Think about it: Wouldn't it be very interesting if Nerevarine could be eventually a part of some cult that are responsible for bringing Alduin, the god of time, to end the world? This could bring a WHOLE other dimention of thinking with the storyline, making it very dark and mysterious. Why would Nerevarine want the world's disappearence? Why would any of the demi-gods want it? Could be cool if each and every figure in the history of TES (important figures, of course) eventually cooporated with each other in order to awake Alduin and end the world. Could also be shocking if Dagoth Ur back at the day (who was pictured as "Evil" or as an "Idealist") resisted for such a plan, and thus he destined to die by the Nerevarine's hand.

Damn... my mind is exploding right now...

Like many said. He left for akavir and probably for the reason that bethesda wouldn't be able to have him appear again but still perhaps release a book authored by him or by someone who followed him.

As for the canon discussion... While there's no canoncial version of either nerevarine, champion of cyrodiil or dhovakiin
I would still bet my skyrim copy that if there was he/she would be native to the particular games province.
