Post » Mon May 14, 2012 1:46 pm

Okay the postives are in blood moon when you were at tnear end of the quest and when you clashed with him it's kinda like he saw you as a equal..A fellow hunter, But his his sphere has Killed millions of animals, mer, And men alike! An top that he is the Lord of were-Creatures....Which obvious has dammed And cursed many people...So what is his true Nature? Is he good,Bad, Or just Grey?

There are no Good daedra, even Azura turned the khajiit from mer to cat people because she felt like it. Hircine only cares about the hunt, nothing else.

This really depends on the perspective of the person asking the question. He is the Daedric Prince of the Hunt. He does what he does for the sport of it, for the challenge. Some will find this morally unacceptable while others will find it agreeable. Personally I have to say he is in the grey area because I don't believe he is malicious or evil in nature, however some of his actions do come across as less than ideal.

Hircine is the phisical manifestation of the hunt. And the hunt in and of itself is not evil...nor is it good. He is the Sport of Daedra and the father of Mabeasts.

1. Not all werecreatures see themselves as cursed.

2. No Daedra is evil.

3. Yes, Hircine killed people. He is a hunter. Nothing evil about it.

Yeah like that.They don't understand what evil or good is so all of them are pretty much grey even the ones like mehrunes dagon who is viewed by mortals as evil is still not good or bad.But Daedra like azura are potentially the worse of them because the ones that seem good are the most unpredictable.

The hunt is the hunt. The hunt is survival. Anynone beneath a Hircine is subjected to be hunted. Even his own "Hounds" and "Children" are hunted by the day by werewolf or Lycanthrope hunters! I wouldn't even say he is grey, because what Hircine personifies is the hunt, an aspect of nature. And the hunt has no moral standing.

Werewolves wouldn't be evil in a sense because they don't kill for pleasure or for sport, they do it for survival. They lose health when they do not feed, so the beast within enables them, drives them instinctevely to hunt a person and eat them up.

Daedra are neither good nor bad; they just embody a concept, like hunting, madness, or revolution. Whether it's good or bad depends on those who perceive it.

FWIW, Azura didn't make the Khajiit just because she felt like it. She did it to make Nirn happy:
But Nirni soon forgave Lorkhaj for Nirni could make children. And she filled herself with children, but cried because her favorite children, the forest people, did not know their shape.

And Azurah came to her and said, "Poor Nirni, stop your tears. Azurah makes for you a gift of a new people." And Nirni stopped weeping, and Azurah spoke the First Secret to the Moons and they parted and let Azurah pass. And Azurah took the forest people who were torn between man and beast, and she placed them in the best desserts and forests on Nirni. And Azurah in her wisdom made them of many shapes, one for every purpose. And Azurah named them Khajiit and told them her Second Secret and taught them the value of secrets.

Wow, wait, wait...Daedra Princes are omnipotent? When did THAT happen? I mean, that implies something. Like, all-knowing, all-seeing. I think it would be fair to assume that they are omnipotent in their given realms (i.e. Sheogorath), but if anyone was omnipotent in Nirn, it would be the Aedra - you know, the Nine Divines and such. Which...isn't saying much. If you created something, you well know what's going on in it. Besides, you can generally tag a Daedra with a level of evil.

Mehrunes Dagon = Pretty evil.

Hermaeus Mora = Grey.

Meridia = Good (I think?).

And to be objective, Daedra seem evil, whilst Aedra seem good (though that's a very misinterpreted view). Superficially, however, they do fall into such accordance.

"The funny thing is... I believe from the lore that Dagon's plots have been trying to stop Skyrim's doomsday from occuring: First, by kidnapping Emperor Uriel and the Amulet of Kings somewhere for "safekeeping", preventing Akatosh's warranty on the world from expiring, and then by assimilating Nirn into Oblivion to keep Alduin from having anything to eat.
