Although the beings are considered evil by most, they are widely worshipped in the realms of Tamriel. Elaborate shrines are created to honor the Daedra as gods. They often take a keen interest in their worshippers, and it is speculated that this is either because of the obvious ego-gratification of being somebody's god, or because the Daedra like to keep an eye on potential future subjects assuming people of demonic disposition enter Oblivion after death, that is; there are as many afterlife theories as there are religions in the world.
Mainstream religious authorities discourage Daedra worship, and often mount witch-hunting expeditions to drive out Daedra worshippers from the local area. During these encounters, they are often surprised at the marginal sanity that comes of worshipping the Daedric Princes. For the most part, however, dealing with the Daedra, one gets the distinct impression of being mused over as a person peering under an upturned rock may momentarily wonder at the lives of the bugs living ignorantly there.
For more information, see main lore article. The Daedric Princes are only the most powerful of the Daedra, and many of them have many servants known generally as lesser Daedra not to be confused with Lesser Daedra , a specific type of Daedra similar to Daedroths.
Even though many lesser Daedra are associated with a Daedric Prince in particular, in reality, any individual Daedroth can serve any Daedric Prince by taking part in an "Oath Bond" while others stay unaligned, though the specifics are characteristically unknown.

Just call them Daedra, and the opposite of them would be Aedra. User Info: CenturionSphere. Yea the Daedra is like the demons of the lore, mehrunes dagons oblivion planes basicly simulate hell if you played and beat oblivion you can tell bethesda inspiration of oblivion came from hellish voids. User Info: parradox But apparently someone found that particular part of the book offensive. However, if the Daedric Princes are so many and they have so much power that they can create these absurd personal and private universes, why wouldn't they want to take the glory of creating the mortal world itself?
It seems a bit counterintuitive. It's hard to pinpoint what exactly the term "Daedric Prince" actually means, the main difficulty being that so many different kinds of Daedric Princes exist. There are creatures like Hermaeus Mora that have no humanoid appearance, and then there are beings like Meridia and Malacath who were born from other people.
How do they all still fall into the same category? How did they come to reach such a similar status? It's not just an inconsistency in Daedra lore, but also a question that hasn't received a full answer that's clear enough. Could it be that their refusal to participate in creating the mortal world is reason enough for them all to be cast into Oblivion? It's been made very clear that the Daedra aren't exactly fond of all things mortal.
After all, if that wasn't the case they would have participated in the creation of Mundus and considered it worth their time. But, maybe they did consider it worth their time, and simply wanted someone else to do the job for them? This is an important question to ask because the Daedric Princes in particular absolutely love meddling in mortal affairs.
They find mortals fascinating, and will often choose particularly promising mortals champions for their cause. It's almost as if their personal realms in Oblivion weren't enough for them after all. Those who were introduced to the Elder Scrolls universe solely through Skyrim might not be familiar with a particular Daedric Prince that wasn't included in Bethesda's fifth installment.
