Mehrunes Dagon

==Summary==
Mehrunes Dagon is one of the sixteen Daedric Princes that govern the infinite abyss of Oblivion, whose sphere of influence encompasses the concepts of Destruction, Darkness and Disaster. A chaotic entity by nature, and supremely dangerous even when compared to his cohorts, Mehrunes Dagon is one of the least favored Princes among the populace of Tamriel, and his worshippers tend to anarchists and other dangerous individuals that spread wanton destruction wherever they go, and with his manifestations and interactions with the mortal plane often falling within the context of his numerous attempts to invade and conquer it, something which has earned him the utmost enmity of the Empire, surpassing even his alleged rival, Molag Bal, in that regard.
It should be noted, however, that much like the majority of the other Princes, Mehrunes Dagon is not an entirely negative force, and that even he has his positive aspects, as his domain also includes the spheres of Change and Revolution, which may allow one to view him also as an agent of renewal, who breaks and shatters the old and stagnant, so that the new may emerge in its place.
Falling under that view is a curiously widespread account of Dagon's origin, which posits that he, in truth, was created by none other than the Magne-Ge, the et'Ada that abstained from the creation of Mundus alongside the God Magnus, and in disappointment with the flawed nature of the mortal plane, created a weapon of destruction that would rid the Aurbis of it, allegedly imbued with their most precious asset: Hope. Ascending in terribly fury, Dagon's first act as to destroy the very place in whose bowels he had been fashioned, the domain of Lyg, whose vanquishing seemingly consolidated the destruction of the whole Kalpa in which it existed, paving way for the world of Tamriel to arise.
