Allow me to introduce myself, then. I am Nocturnal, the Daedric Prince of Shadows, Secrets, and Darkness. A thief once got a cowl from me, but little did he know, the prize would render his identity unknown to the entire world, and the cowl itself became his identity. Was he witty enough to have stolen it from me, or did I simply allow him to take it? I'm not telling.

My sphere and motives are unknown to mortals. While I'm not one for worship, I grant certain mortals, generally thieves, some extra secrecy when they need it.


Addendum: An introduction is kind of contradictory then, isn't it?

... or is it?

Mehrunes Dagon,
Why?
Well he is pretty cool in Oblivion in that final duel,

But within skyrim he gives me an opportunity a "test" to be able to get his blade, is brings the evil out of my character to do so. With this you get a few tests on daedric monsters, that respawn every week.

= InfiDaedraHearts = win

The monsters respawn every week even if you let him live

Hircine, and Molag Bal. Vaermina is interesting to me as well.

Nocturnal.

Simply because she was the Goddess of my Oblivion character and the patron of all sneaky type people. Not to mention Nightingale Armor is the greatest vanilla armor in Skyrim. I wish the Thieves Guild wasn't so mediocre or I'd be willing to do it.
