History WMG / TheElderScrollsIVOblivion

[[WMG: Jyggalad and the Grey march arent real]]
Everything about Jyggalad, from his belief that the other princes were working against him, to his apsolute obsession with order, to his nature as a split personality, fit perfectly withing Sheogoraths domain of madness, he was never a prince of order, that was merely a delusion of a mad god, which also explains why we dont see him in the other games, he dident really go off to wander oblivion he just faded into the back of Sheogorath/the heroes mind

[[WMG: Dagail is a retired necromancer]] One of the more common Mage's Guild rumors is that "Half the Council of Mages retired after necromancy was banned!" Implying that many heads of The Guild were necromancers themselves and fled before they could be arrested. Well guess who used to be on the Council herself, is a master of Mysticism (which overlaps with necromancy), was ''encouraged'' to retire and sent off to the furtherest possible town from the Imperial City

* It's notable that the Hero never has the option to show romantic interest in anyone or even react to the handful of NPCs who flirt with him/her. It could be that they simply aren't interested in the living...

::Skyrim gives another possible explanation. All previous wearers of the Amulet of Kings were Dragonborn (Alessia, the Remans, Tiber Septim and his line). Before Skyrim, these folks had all been humans, either Nords or Imperials, and thus possibly related. As of Skyrim, a Dragonborn can be a member of any sentient race, so there's nothing stopping Mankar Camoran as an Altmer from being Dragonborn. Ironically, even though the creators weren't thinking of it, I think it actually explains Camoran better than anything that was present at the time of Oblivion.
* From his own Commentaries on the Mysterium Xarxes: "Offering myself to that daybreak allowed the girdle of grace to contain me. When my voice returned, it spoke with another tongue. After three nights I could speak fire." Three days is far too short for a non-Dragonborn to learn the Thu'um. The Greybeards spend years training to understand enough to use the Thu'um. But unless "speak fire" is metaphorical, and given how the rest of the Commentaries are written that's a definite possibility, all it would have taken is for the Mysterium Xarxes to have the construction of a Word Wall on the pages we didn't see, but that only works if Camoran was Dragonborn.

Most Altmer follow Auriel (although there are exceptions), but most Ayleids were Daedra worshippers (they worshipped Auriel too, but still). Mankar's Paradise has Ayleid architecture. He even loves torture as much as they did. And it would explain the need to claim being the son of the Camoran Usurper (because, officially, he would have ''no parents'' to speak of, Ayleids being "extinct" and all); alternatively, he ''is'' the son of the Camoran Usurper, but performed nymic surgery to become Ayleid. His offspring is implied to be artificial in some way, and the reason for it could be that no female Ayleid was available to beget the kind of offspring he wanted. Kirkbride's Nu-Mantia Intercept said that Ayleids were coming back, but 200 years after (''Skyrim'' time) they are nowhere to be seen. Mankar could wear the Amulet of Kings because Ayleids were the builders of the White-Gold Tower, and the Amulet contains its Stone. His plan doesn't only fulfill Mehrunes Dagon's wishes, but it also breaks the covenant between the killers of his race and the "false god" Akatosh.
