9 divines!

Neither, they both are detrimental to mortals.

This thread will ultimately become a lore debate after someone states false information.

shouldnt this be under elderscrolls series?

Lol, what's a "dadera"? :mellow:

Deadra are actually Aedra.

I prefer neither. I do not believe in these so-called gods. They are just imposing beings most of the time, playing with people as if they are toys. If they even take one small step toward me without my permission, I will crush them all. Or at the very least tear out one of their eyeballs before I die.

The Nine Divines only protect mortals from outside forces is because they're bound to Nirn. The end of Mundus would be the end of the Aedra and vice-versa. The various heroes that pop up once in a while are just tools. Yes, some Aedra are genuinely benevolent and self-sacrificing like Mara, but compared to what they were before Nirn, especially from an Elven perspective, and they might be a little bitter, or insane maybe over their fate. I chose Daedra because they at least don't hide their intentions most of the time, and they're just more interesting.

the divines are better than dadrea they are smarter and more cunning i think that the dadrea are just a bunch of mad people who have nothing but feeble attempts to destroy the world of men

10 Divines. Sheogorath is one of them once you become him.

"The Nine Divines are BORING. Daedra? They are NEVER BORING!"

Lol. Serioiusly though, it depends on the Daedra vs. The Aedra in question. I am a fan of Sanguine AND Diebella, and many others besides. I am no more fond of Talos than I am of Mehrunes Dagon. A lot of it depends on their personal histories, as well as with what they are up to from one moment to the next. My regard of them changes just as their actions and agenda change.

Moved to the TES Lore section, as it is not directly related to Skyrim.

Nordic pantheon all the way. Screw the heretical 9, and the damnable daedra
