Mehrunes Dagon: “Mehrunes Dagon is the Daedric Prince of Destruction, Revolution and
Change. He is associated with natural dangers like fire, earthquakes, and floods. In most
cultures, though, Dagon is merely a god of bloodshed and betrayal.”
Mephala: “Mephala is the Daedric Prince of Murder. Unlike many other Daedric Princes,
who almost always appear as the same gender, Mephala appears as either male or female
depending on whom the Daedric Prince wishes to ensnare (though she's typically female).
Mephala's only consistent theme seems to be interference in the affairs of mortals for
amusement. Mephala's sphere seems to indicate a careful plan carried out through
executions, each life a portion of a massive web. Mephala sees the affairs of mortals as a
weave; pull but one thread and the whole thing unravels. She is also associated with more
simple concepts—lies, sex, and murder.”
Meridia: “Meridia is the Daedric Prince of living energies. She has a great and everlasting
hatred for the undead and will greatly reward any who eliminate them from the world.
Meridia is one of the few Daedric Princes who is usually not considered to be wholly evil.
However, she is known as the Daedra Lady of Greed and as an avid collector of human
specimens.”
Molag Bal: “Molag Bal is the Daedric Prince of Domination and Enslavement. He is known as
the God of Schemes, the King of Rape, the Harvester of Souls, the Lord of Brutality, and the
Prince of Rage. His main desire is to harvest the souls of mortals and to bring them within
his sway by spreading seeds of strife and discord in the mortal realms.
He can be associated with domineering and violent acts, including sexual sadism, and sexual
masochism.”
Moonshadow: “Moonshadow is Azura's plane of Oblivion, where she lives in a rose palace. It
is reported to be blindingly beautiful and colourful, with flowers, waterfalls, trees, and a city
of silver.”
Mundas: “The in-game name for the TES universe.”
N:
Nirn: “The in-game name for the TES World.”
O:
Oblivion: “A realm, often ruled by a Daedric Prince – inhabited by lesser Daedra.”
Offering: “An item given by a worshipper to a Daedric Prince to appease and please them.”
