Is it better to bring the star to Aranea or Nelacar?

For pure power and utility, give the Azura's Star to Nelacar to get the Black Star, which easily refills with human (grand) souls, but you lose Aranea as a follower; give it to Aranea for a less powerful but morally cleaner refillable soul gem (Azura's Star) and the option to have her as a powerful mage follower. The Black Star is generally considered superior for enchanting due to its ease of filling with human souls, making it the practical choice, despite its darker nature.

Who is the best person to give Azura's star to?

You should bring Azura's Star to either Aranea Ienith (for the standard, good Azura's Star and a follower) or Nelacar (for the more powerful, "evil" Black Star that traps sentient souls) in Skyrim, a choice that depends on your character's morality and gameplay preference for reusable soul gems.

What is the best option for Azura's star?

For utility, the Black Star is widely considered the best option because it traps powerful human (black) souls, which are always Grand, and often functions like a reusable Grand Soul Gem, superior to the standard Azura's Star (white) which only traps weaker creature (white) souls. However, choosing the Black Star means losing the chance to have Aranea Ienith as a follower and potentially roleplaying a darker path, while Azura's Star offers a "good" choice with a reliable, powerful white soul source.

Should you give Martin Azuras star?

No, you should not give Azura's Star to Martin in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion because it's an incredibly powerful, reusable soul gem that's essential for enchanting, and giving it to him means losing it permanently for that playthrough. Instead, find another Daedric artifact you don't use much, like the Mace of Molag Bal or Wabbajack, to sacrifice for the main quest.

YOU CHOSE WRONG! Azura's Star or The Black Star?

Who should I give the star to, Aranea or Nelacar?

What does a black soul gem do?

A Black Soul Gem in The Elder Scrolls games allows you to trap the souls of humanoids (like people, elves, etc.), which are normally "Grand" level souls, making them incredibly useful for powerful enchantments or recharging items, a feat regular soul gems can't achieve. They're essential for getting easy Grand Souls from plentiful human enemies (bandits, guards) rather than rare creatures, and they're used to craft powerful gear, like Daedric items at the Atronach Forge.

Does Auriel's bow count as a Daedric artifact?

No, Auriel's Bow isn't technically a Daedric artifact; it's an Aedric artifact of Akatosh, but with the Unofficial Skyrim Patch (USKP) installed, it counts towards the "Oblivion Walker" achievement because it's a powerful unique item from the Dawnguard DLC. Without the patch, it doesn't count, as the achievement requires artifacts from Daedric Prince quests, but the USKP fixes this for the achievement's sake, making it a key item for completionists.
