Can a Dremora serve more than one god, at the same time?

Would it make any sense if there were a statue of Malacath, Boethiah, and Molag Bal (hypothetically) within one organization of Dremora?

If not, could it make sense if the gods in question were to ally over a particular scenario/goal, and give it their blessing?

Thanks...


Sorry for re-posting/asking this, but I tacked it on to the end of my last question, and I was afraid that the sidetracking posts would get it buried.

The Dremora don't worship anyone. The Daedric Princes are their brothers (stronger brothers).

The Dremora serve Dagon for protection, and it is fully possible for them to serve another prince if they found it in their best interest. They are free agents and their own seperate Et'Ada. Also, the Dremora are made up of multiple clans with different interests, for it is fully possible for one clan to serve a prince other then Dagon and for the others to continue to serve Dagon.

Dremora, like the other lesser daedra are still daedra. That means they are spirits of the same nature as Daedric Lords, just smaller in power and stature. That also means their motivations are unintelligible to mortals. So you can have them do whatever you want. The question if Dagon would punish such a group for going against their natural allegiance would probably have the same answer: no way to tell.

So, with logic (if you can call it that) outside of mortal understanding, anything goes. Anything could happen without known reason, like the Dremora in Oblivion who decided to communicate with you.
Thanks!

I'd say read http://imperial-library.info/tsobs/part06.shtml for some perspective on dremora and their clans, outside the RWAR SMASH EBERFINGZ!

Daedra can serve more then one Prince, it's just that the ones refered to as "servants" to specific Princes tend to live in that Prince's realm and be more associated with that Prince's sphere. It's like this:

Winged Twilight: Their own name is associated with Twilight which is Azura's sphere, plus they're ravishingly beautiful and feminine like her. Also another thing to know is that they're like harpies, which in Greek Mythology were Zues's punishers (Azura is a Goddess who just LOVES giving out punishments).

Dremora, Clanfears, and Scamps: All are very destructive and blood-thirsty like Mehrunes Dagon.

Golden Saints and Dark Seducers: They're opposites, both to their appearances as well as their personalities (Saints being cruel and arrogant, Seducers being more humble). They represent Sheogorath's split personality.

Spider Daedra: Very dangerous creatures who enjoy killing, and are also associated with Mephala in the fact that they are spider beings, and she is the "Web Spinner" who spins webs of strife and plucks the threads to get mortals to kill each other.

Coming or going?

Let me clarify, are each only the way that they are because of the Prince they serve, or are they simply "like that" and as such naturally inclined to serve that Prince anyway? As it's said, the Dremora did not always serve Dagon. It could be that thousands of years serving the prince of Destruction made the Destructive over time, and if, for whatever reason, they started to serve Peryite they would become less destructive and more calculating and precise after a very long time, perhaps even a number of years beyond mortal conception of numbers? Daedra live long (long here having the meaning of "forever"), and of course there was the time before Time itself that was an unknown length of proto-time for things to happen in.

Well I never said they stayed with those princes forever. Yes they do change according to the prince they are labeled as servants to, but like I already said they are not bound to just doing tasks for that prince. The Dremora are Dagon's servants, but they could still serve Peryite if he wanted. But right now they are most associated with Dagon because his sphere suits them. All I was trying to say was how the individual "servants" are related closely to their Princes in terms of what the Sphere is.

Thanks for clarifying!

Muthsera,

Although I cannot find a text that unambiguously determines whether the dremora engage in the worship of Mehrunes Dagon (or any other entity, for that matter), I feel obligated to remind the thread that the Champion of Cyrodiil stated that the citadels fortifying the Deadlands contained "worship benches" within. Considering that the dremora, xivilai and atronachs seem to be the only entities found within with the wherewithal to engage in the higher intellectual endeavor of "worship" (the spider daedra, scamps, and occasional daedroth are too bestial in nature, I presume), we would be amiss to assume that dremora, as a whole, do not worship....something.

However, it must also be stated that to come to a definitive answer solely based upon the objective evidence currently available would be allow ourselves to gambol down the Golden Road of hasty decisions.

Further this merchant sayeth not.


Yours in the Scrolls,
