Does anyone know if there are any acounts where there are Daedra in places other than Tamriel, like Akavir, Altmora, Pyandea?

We're rather short on accounts from those places. Though I don't see why not if the local cultures are not completely opposed or ignorant of the Daedra they can't really be avoided.

Hey, its prowler from the IL wassup man? lol
Do you think they are even aware of the Daedra, for all we know, Daedra are just known in Tamriel right?

How would we know? We know next to nothing about the other continents. Though there also seems to be nothing that prevents the Daedra from making themselves known over there either.

That would be it, since we know very little about other continents we lack any good accounts on this subject, but logically, I'd expect Daedra to appear in other continents too, the existence of Daedra doesn't seem like the type of thing that could go completely unknown anywhere, and even if the inhabitants of say.. Akavir were completely opposed to any traffic with Daedra as a whole, there would still be those who break the rules, no doubt, and maybe they would start summoning and worshiping Daedra.

We really don't know though, and unless Bethesda decides to give more information on other continents in future games, everything we do now is purely speculation.

There are two Akaviri-styled Daedric artifacts that I know of, Goldbrand and the Ebony Blade. This isn't conclusive, but suggestive of some Daedric presence in Akavir.

They have probably had influences all over Tamriel or Nirn for that reason as well as they're pretty similar to mankinds "Gods".

So I would be pretty sure that they have been there and here and everywhere.

Perhaps the Daedra could only appear where people believed in them?

While faith do seem to strengthen gods, both Aedra and Daedra are "universal" concepts - where there is destruction, there will be Dagon, for example.
Kind of.

Perhaps the Daedra choose to appear there where they are the strongest?

Yes that would be a decent suggestion and that certainly what I would do.

I believe the Sload are known to be Daedra worshippers (leaping from the top of the pillar of Thras is supposed to -however randomly- transport the jumper to Oblivion).

Which Daedra, or do they have specific cults as the provinces did?

I dont think we're really sure if they worship any Daedras but they probably did, and I dont think that there is any sources for it either at the moment.

But I would think that they have some cults of Daedra worshippers or not.

I'm not sure which specific Daedra they worship, but there's a small entry in "The Doors of Oblivion", plus N'Gasta was supposedly a servant of Clavicus Vile, at least according to Artisa Arelas in Morrowind.

Yup, but Clavicus is known for attracting necromancers. And since their culture is heavily based on necromancy, he might have a prominent position as well. Though it would also be likely that they revere Molag Bal, "harvester of mortal souls".

And now they might even worship Mannimarco in some way.

I'm not 100% sure thou that I remembered correctly but didn't Mannimarco meet with the Sload a long time ago?

I couldn't find anything specific, but I read in an article at TIL that he was the "hero of the Sloads". So my guess would be yes, but I don't know for sure. :shrug:

In the past thirty years, things have been quiet in the western seas, and the hero of the Sload, the so-called King of Worms, Mannimarco has likewise ceased to trouble Tamriel. It may be that they slank back into their dark seas together. That is the more hopeful assumption. - http://www.imperial-library.info/pge3/other_lands.shtml

Yeah, that's where I got it from. I should have quoted it and included a link as you've done.
