When people say that want to meet Sheogorath, I think they're signing a death warrant. The only reason why Sheogorath talked to you, or let you step on the ground he walked on, because he wanted you to be in the Isles. Anything else, he'll just kill you or make your life a living hell.

I doubt so. Daedric Princes are fickle.

Vaermina is the best.

She has by far the best task, that tower she sends you to is one of my favorite places in the game. The staff she gives you might not be the best weapon ever, but it's still really entertaining.

She gets my vote
Sanguine is a male.
Anyway, my choice is probably Boethia, he's cool, if not him, Azura. :wink:
Boethia's worshipers and some books refer to Boethia as a she, this game is strange when it comes to gender.
I would say I would like to meet Meridia because of the whole against the undead thing and all. Or Sheogorath because he is fun.
Typically, Daedric Princes can be any form they choose.

Like I said before, If Mehrunes Dagon wanted to be a hot chick instead of a red skinned rip-off of Goro from MK, he could do it, according to the books in the game.

All Daedric Princes are unpredictable. Some of them are thought to be good, but I think they're all evil and sick-minded.
Example 1:
Spoiler:
When the Tribunal became "gods", Azura flipped out and cursed their ENTIRE race to have dark skin.......because of three people. Plus, she caused a mountain to explode........and she might have taught Nerevar how to destroy an entire civilization.
Example 2:
Spoiler:
Mehrunes Dagon tried to change Tamriel from a beautiful land to a heaping lava-pit and make some random Altmer king of the world.

My 2nd choice would be Nocturnal and of course I would be wearing the Gray Cowl while meeting him/her.
Nocturnal is a her, but i dont understand why you'd want to meet her, according to the book"Song of Hrormir" Nocturnal is a shriveled, decrepit, ugly old hag whose soul desire is to shroud the world in darkness and chaos

Personally i'd like to fight Akatosh,
Spoiler:
He saves the world at the end of the main questline of Oblivion so i'd like to see how I'd fair against him, being as I'm also a Daedric Prince, Sheogorath (yet I have no spectacular powers :cry: )
Also, Corvinus, Sheogorath and Jyggalag both do not belong on the list as seperate entities since they are the same person, if you wanted to include both of them i'd have them as a single choice as "Sheogorath/Jyggalag", or since the original version is Jyggalag, "Jyggalag (Sheogorath)"

After all the stuff i've seen you post being so obsessed with the Dark Brotherhood, I'd think you'd know this, "Sithis is the start of the house. Before him was nothing..." "...Sithis sundered the nothing and mutated the parts, fashioning from them a myriad of possibilities. These ideas ebbed and flowed and faded away and this is how it should have been. One idea, however, became jealous and did not want to die; like the stasis, he wanted to last. This was the demon Anui-El, who made friends, and they called themselves the Aedra."

Sithis is nothing, he does not exist. He is neither Aedra or Daedra, he is a powerless figment of imagination created by Zealots.

I vote for Jyggalag (wonder if I spelled that right....) because, I like his sword and his library intrigues me.
Maybe Sheogorath because he is silly, and Dyus in Knifepoint Hollow was boring and it would be funny to torment him.

Jyggylag *technically* isn't a Daedric Prince. He counts as the other one.

Hermaeus Mora, Peryite, Sheogorath and Hircine are my favorites. ^^ Peryite because he looks awesome and he actually seems to speak quite politely to the player, unlike other Daedra Princes. And Hermaeus Mora sounds damn hilarious in Oblivion, and he too seems quite polite to me. :P And he also looks hilarious. Sheogorath is funny as hell, especially in Daggerfall, although he is somewhat annoying in SI. And again in Daggerfall, he looks kinda cute. <3
Hircine is possibly the coolest of the Princes, and hey, he created those always-so-lovely lycanthropes! :D

It's sad I could vote only one of these, but I selected Hermaeus Mora. :P

Hermaeus Mora. Just so I can ask about the whole green blob thing he's got going on. And then probably Peryite, because you really don't hear that much about him.

If I would in no way come to harm, probably either Molag Bal or Mephala.

Molag Bal mostly to see what makes him tick; how he's driven to be so cruel, violent and rapacious.

Mephala because I'd be interested in seeing how she weaves her little "interferences" in mortal affairs together, and what her goal(s) might be.

Mind you, if there WAS the possibility of harm, I'd probably say Sheogorath, because even if he killed you outright, it'd probably be funny as hell. :lol:

Im not sure because Sheogorath, although hilarious would get really annoying with all the death threats (eye balls, brain pie, intestine jump rope etc). Azura supposedly knows all but speaks only in riddle which I would hate because im rubbish at them. Mehrunes sounds like a really loud, annoying drunk person, Vaernima... who would want to scare themselves that badly? and most of the others sound cruel ( like Molag Bal) or just plain weird like Hermaues Mora. I don't know what to think but if I had to choose i'd probably say Azura because ive heard she's a chick. Ha im so shallow.

Hermaeus Mora, although if I lived in Tamriel I would probably go the way of Morian Zenas sooner or later.

well, i would choose sheogorath, if i hadnt already had enough of that crazy b*****d "cheese for everyone! no, no cheese for anyone, well maybe just a little."... i wanted cheese... and i would choose molag bol but then hed probably promise me riches and crap for killing some guy with an evil mace... my third choice would be hermaus mora, but hes nothing but a huge "wisp wiff pwinsers" and i wouldnt be able to listen to him for more than 5 minutes without ripping out his tounge. and 5 minutes isnt long enough to learn all the information in the universe. my fourth choice would be azura, but she would probably be a little too... distracting... 0.0 (drool) my fifth choice would be the one high up in the mountains near cheydinhal, because his trial was FUN and i got a TON (literally 2000 enc) of amazing items (go level 45 or 55 idr which.) and finally mehrunes dagon, if only to gloat.
