Namira Namira ( Daedric : ) , whose sphere is the ancient darkness , is the Daedric Prince of sundry , dark , and shadowy spirits . She is associated with spiders , insects , slugs and other repulsive creatures which inspire mortals with an instinctive revulsion . She is also known as the Mistress of Decay , the Devourer of the Dead , and the Spirit Daedra . She also is the patron of Tamriel ' s cannibals , taking pleasure in the consumption of mortal s . Namira ' s plane of Oblivion is known as the Scuttling Void . History . First era . One of the first recorded encounters with Namira is of a tale about a person who had dealt with the Prince sometime in the First Era . The person , known as Wheedle , was the 13th child of a king in Valenwood . As such Wheedle was in no position to take the throne or even inherit much property or wealth . While searching for fortune and fame , he met and saved a vagabond who was actually Namira . Recognizing her , he begged to be her apprentice for power and glory . He followed her for 33 days and nights begging at her feet ; on the 33rd day Namira revealed that by doing so he had completed the apprenticeship , and thus gave him her power . She gave him three " blessings " : disease , pity , and disregard . With those " blessings , " his name became legendary among the beggars . First , he could choose to have any disease with visible symptoms , but he needed to always have one . He then became a beggar : a terrible beggar who could evoke pity from any passers - by . Finally , Wheedle discovered that the power of disregard gave great access to spoken secrets : people unknowingly said important things where Wheedle could hear them . Wheedle grew to know the comings and goings of every citizen in the city . To this day , it is said that if one really wants to know something , one should ask the beggars , for they have eyes and ears throughout the cities and know all the little secrets of the daily lives of its citizens . Third era . When summoned by the Hero of Kvatch at her shrine , Namira spoke to the champion about the Forgotten One s , a group of fanatical worshippers that lived in the darkness of the ruin Anga . Some priests of Arkay were planning to bring light to Anga and " save " the Forgotten Ones . The champion was asked by Namira to use Namira ' s spell on the priests and let the Forgotten Ones finish them off . When the priests of Arkay were slain , Namira rewarded the champion her ring . The Ring of Namira reflects both spell damage and physical damage . Fourth Era . During the Fourth Era , the Dragonborn encountered a group of cannibals who worshiped Namira . The cannibals wished to kill and eat a priest of Arkay , the Dragonborn either killed the priest and was rewarded with the Ring of Namira or slaughtered the cult of cannibals . While the ring is worn , Stamina is increased and the wearer can feast on the dead , which provides increased Health and Health regeneration . Invocation . The summoning date of Namira is 9th of Second Seed . Namira can also be summoned at her shrine by someone repulsive ; she does not like attractive people . Daedric artifact . Namira ' s artifact is the aptly named Ring of Namira . To acquire it in , the Hero must complete the Shrine of Namira quest . In , the Dragonborn must complete " The Taste of Death " quest , and side with Eola . The rings in each game have different enchantments , however .
