Why Wasn't Jyggalag in Skyrim?

Post » Thu May 09, 2013 5:57 am

Why wasn't there a quest for him? Just a simple question, seeing as he's been around for around 200 years since Oblivion.

Why would he be? He was a nice enemy in SI but i don't think he would have any need to be in Skyrim.

Pretty much this.

He doesn't get out much anyways. That and the other daedric princes would have a s***fit if he was strolling around. Remember it took all of the other princes to curse him to be Sheogorath.

Because you wiped him from existence during Shivering Isles. Sheogorath is technically you from Oblivion.I think. Mantling gods is a subject I'm not too keen on.

I think the main reason is that he is the prince of order therefore he doesnt really enjoy meddling with mortals since they represent chaos pretty much.

I got the impression that Jyggalag had no interest in the affairs of the mortal realm and therefore did not interact with them, focusing more on the realms of Oblivion. So when he returned at the end of Shivering Isles, he went off to do his own thing.

no, you can't "wipe out" a Daedric prince, all you can do is cast them back to their realm.

All we did in Shivering Isles was release him from his curse. by us becoming Sheogorath, it broke the curse as he could not transform back since someone else sat upon the throne of madness.

Jyggalag clearly stated at the end of the Shivering Isles that you broke his curse, and that he shall now return to the waters of oblivion and rebuild.

Then it's taking him a long time to rebuild, I guess.

True

After reading a bit about Peryite I have the impression that the pestilence part is the dominant one and there isnt much about order in his actions but Jyggalag is all about order as seen in Shivering Isles. Transforming the land and people into a something orderly. Besides most people dont even know that Jyggalag even exists so you could argue that people think that Peryite represents order even though is he isnt the "true" one.

Well he is completey alone and every other Daedric Prince is his enemy so he probably has it not that easy to return to power.

You know what, this is the first time that I'd heard of Jyggalag. I'm now glad that he wasn't in Skyrim, because after a few readings on uesp and eswikia, I'd be pretty much his B**** to order around. He is the baddest most awesomestest Daedric Lord I have ever seen and would not even think twice about becoming his champion, and would even think of murdering every other possible champion in Tamriel just so he'd pick me.

On another note, why did dwemer equipment look so much like Jyggalag?

OHHH MY GOOOOOOOD JYGGALAG RETURNS TO TAMRIEL IN TESVI WITH HIS ARMY OF DWEMER.
I wish. haha.

Probably rebuilding his Great Library with Dyus. Recording everything that ever happened, happen, and will happen takes a while.

Cuz they forgot, Or 11.11.11, or it's the ps3 fault, or because Ulfric is a racist, or my favorite the guys working on that quest at the time were added to the fallout 4 war effort. Those excuses are just the classics though.....could be others.

I'm drawing a blank. Why is 11-11-11 relevant to Jyg?

Jyggalag is probably recuperating, and rebuilding his realm and gaining followers.

He used to be powerful, but now he is invisible. It'll take a long time for his influence in Tamriel to spread...

11-11-11 is an excuse alot of us use to explain why lots of things aren't in the game that should be, as Bethesda wanted a cool release date instead of a quality game.
