» Fri Nov 16, 2012 7:23 pm Ever since I first played Morrowind, so many years ago; and first hearing about Lorkhan and his heart. I've always wondered was Lorkhan acting through Dagoth Ur? According to historical accounts, Dagoth Ur was a pretty cool guy before he came into contact with Lorkhan's Heart.
Over the centuries he slowly became twisted by the heart's power both physically and mentally. Could Dagoth Ur's madness be contributed to two powerful personalities, fighting for control of Dagoth's mind and body? Maybe Dagoth Ur wasn't easy to possess, cause Vivec states, that by the time of the battle Dagoth was already a mighty sorcerer. To be a mighty sorcerer requires a strong mind and will.
"Dagoth Ur is the former Lord High Councilor of House Dagoth. He was of Lord Nerevar's generation, older than we, and a mighty sorcerer and enchanted in life. In his sustained shadow immortality, he appears to be a highly intelligent, severely deluded immortal monster with unparalleled supernatural abilities. He appears, by turns, lucid and deranged, compassionate and bestial, profoundly wise and profoundly disordered. In short, he is a mad god."
Lorkhan is known as a trickster, couldn't he have seduced Dagoth Ur while he slumbered in the heart chamber? Maybe he promised Ur a chance at revenge against those who wronged him?
