Sheogorath (Morrowind)

Sheogorath is the Daedric Prince of Madness, ruler of the Shivering Isles. Sheogorath is the Fourth Corner of the House of Troubles, who always tests the Dunmer for mental weakness.The House of Troubles
==Background==
As one of the "bad Daedra," worship of Sheogorath is against the law of the Temple and Ordinators will hunt down and destroy any signs of these unlawful practices.The House of Troubles Thus, Sheogorath receives worshipers in hidden locations, such as the sewers in the St. Delyn Canton in Vivec City, as well as several seemingly abandoned ruins, including the Daedric shrine of Ald Daedroth. 
Sheogorath is believed to have propelled Baar Dau towards Nirn either out of boredom or with the intent of destroying Vivec City as an act of revenge against the Tribunal for its disrespect.The Pilgrim's PathA Tale of Baar Dau
Approximately one hundred years ago, Sheogorath made a wager with Azura on the nature of solitude, with Sheogorath believing it causes madness against Azura's belief it allows for solace and meditation. A priestess of Azura named Rayna Drolan has been living alone on an island north of Dagon Fel to test which Prince is correct. Unfortunately for Sheogorath, it appears the priestess has yet to go mad even as the deadline nears.Events of "Azura's Quest" in

==Personality==
Sheogorath is said to test individuals for mental weakness. Legends fail to pinpoint whether he is an obstacle or a useful ally to those who call upon him. He enjoys inflicting madness or giving mortals a taste of it, as he does not view madness as a curse.Dialogue with Sheogorath during "Sheogorath's Quest" in 
He is believed to harbor hatred toward the Tribunal, like with the other members of the House of Troubles. This has led Temple doctrine to accuse Sheogorath of being the one to hurl Baar Dau at Vivec City. While such a cruel act has never been verifiably attributed to him, Sheogorath is willing to cheat to get what he wants, as shown in his bet with Azura. 
Unlike his later characterization as a hammy or mood-swinging Madgod, Sheogorath appears quite calm and collected and even very formal in his conversation with the Nerevarine. This does not negate his utter willingness to bring harm upon mortals and his apparent disregard for his worshipers, who often suffer at the hands of Ordinators or that some enjoy killing each other as part of a "dance."Events of Dialogue with Hlireni Indavel during "Ahemmusa Nerevarine" in 
==Dialogue==
Show: Sheogorath's Quest
At the Shrine of Ihinipalit:
"What is it, mortal? Have you come to be of service to Sheogorath? That in and of itself speaks toward your madness. This pleases me. Fetch the Fork of Horripilation from the mad hermit near Ald Redaynia. Take care with him. He's not the most...stable man. Use the Fork wisely, mortal. Few have wielded it who have not come away changed. Use the Fork to strike a deathblow to the giant bull netch that resides near the hermit. Do this, return the Fork of Horripilation to me, and Sheogorath will reward you well."
After you complete the task:
"Ah...I see you have completed my little errand. Well done. Perhaps you've gotten a taste of madness as well? Do not believe madness to be a curse, mortal. For some, it is the greatest of blessings...a bitter mercy perhaps, but mercy nonetheless. Give me the Fork of Horripilation. I believe I have something more suitable for your needs. Go now. Remember what you have seen."
