Is Talos Actually a Divine?

Post » Sat Jun 30, 2012 9:35 pm

Okay, Im here to answer a discussion I saw on the forums a couple days ago. People were discussing whether or not Talos is actually a divine in Elder Scrolls lore. There were both Thalmor and Stormcloak/True Nord Opinions on the forum. The thread was locked so I could not post and justify the right answer. The correct answer is...Talos is a divine. I justify this because in Oblivion *spoiler alert* to enter Mankar Camaran's Paradise, you need the blood of a divine. You acomplish this feat by getting blood off of Tiber Septim's Armor in Sancr Tor. So that settles it, Talos is a divine.

Yes, you meet him (or an aspect of him) in the Morrowind MQ.

The Thalmor just can't accept that man can be a god. I remember doing that quest in oblivion and thinking exactly the same thing in skyrim, he is obviously a divine.

You meet an incarnation of Talos in Morrowind as an imperial named Wolf in Ghostgate. So yes, Talos is a divine.

You being Dragonborne proves he is a divine.

If Talos wasn't a divine, the Mundus would have fallen apart long ago.
