    What about Shor? Who are his Deadra.

    Shor's an Aedra, which is another reason the Wheel as it's commonly displayed doesn't work.

    Another dead end. What if shor is a deadra? Who's his aedra, and +1?

    Is Shor Aedra? His heart has undoubtedly influenced Nirn. Aedra aren't supposed to be able to do shit.

    He gave up his power to create Nirn, he is Aedra. It isn't a question "if" he's a Daedra. He's not.

    He definitely was Aedric by nature but if his divine spark was separated from him Shor would be more of a fallen god and wouldn't count towards the eight (or nine) respectively. I think his influence on Nirn is proof of that. But either way, I've never liked this representation of the wheel either.

    I don't think that it's clear cut like that. His heart is still doing it's thing, like it and Nirn are the phylactery of each other. If you believe the tales, it's like sauron and the ring, except you cant destroy the ring, so what power has Shor given up?

    Everything. He's the first one to give up everything for the world. He's the Prime Aedra.

    ...I'd like a picture. Pics or it didn't happen, because it seems like it was a team venture.

    If you seriously have to ask for an explanation at this point, you shouldn't be having this conversation Shor.
