Mehrunes Dagon is one of the Elder Scrolls series' most iconic enemies, though some lore suggests he isn't necessarily as evil as most Tamrielic religions describe. Nonetheless, he is the Daedric Prince of Destruction and was the main antagonist of Oblivion hundreds of years before Skyrim, where he sought to merge Nirn with Oblivion by bypassing the Septim bloodline and the Amulet of Kings.
