Theory/Speculation

Post » Tue Jul 19, 2011 10:48 am

As the topic description says, how does Camoran wear the Amulet of Kings when he allegedly has no Septim blood? Well, I have a couple of speculations:

1. The covenant may only exist on Nirn, thus when the Amulet is outside of Nirn (specifically in Oblivion), it is not bound by the Alessian covenant, so anyone could wear it.
2. Mankar Camoran happens to be aided by Mehrunes Dagon. Is it possible that Dagon gave Camoran the power to wear it?
3. It could be an illusion - making the champion THINK that Camoran could actually wear it.
4. Could it be possible that Akatosh allowed Camoran to steal it and give him the power to wear it and in turn make the champion kill him to get the Amulet back? In consideration of the fact that Camoran was considerably against Akatosh, and Akatosh against Camoran, that could make sense. Also, it could be part of Akatosh's plan to dissolve the Alessian covenant so he could attack Skyrim in the pursuing years as Alduin.

Just a few speculations, feel free to correct me anywhere I'm wrong. :)

He may have been a Dragonborn, which should allow him to wear it.

There is no rule stating only people with Septim (or rather Alessian) blood can wear the amulet. Its imperial propaganda.

He wears it even before he teleports to paradise, so he can wear it on Nirn (and it was confirmed that it isn't bug).
He is part of the enantiomorph so he can wear it (imho).

Well I had a theory in my thread that I started earlier today, that he had attained CHIM, and thus being everyone and everything he could wear it. Seems I was wrong though. Or people didn't agree with me anyway. Still I thought it was an interesting thought tho :)

EDIT: Oh, I just saw you already posted in my thread. Nevermind.

He actually tied the clasps together with twine.
