Is Vivec a good or evil character?

Vivec is not simply good or evil, but a complex, morally ambiguous figure—a benevolent protector and warrior-poet who also committed terrible acts like murdering his friend Nerevar and holding his people hostage with a meteor, embodying duality and operating beyond conventional morality, often seen as a tragic, egotistical demigod whose actions serve a greater, yet questionable, purpose for the Dunmer.

Did Vivec actually achieve chim?

Yes, according to much of the lore, Vivec achieved CHIM, the state of universal awareness where one realizes reality is a dream but chooses to remain within it, using that power to become a god, alter history, and suspend the Ministry of Truth. He learned CHIM from Molag Bal, used it to reshape his own past, and even guided the Nerevarine in using its power, though some believe his claims might be self-glorification, as the Elder Scrolls universe thrives on ambiguity.

What does killing Vivec do?

Killing Vivec in The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, especially after the main quest, results in minor in-game reactions like NPCs calling you a blasphemer, but doesn't break the game; you'll find an artifact on his body to help with the main quest, though he offers unique dialogue if you finish the Tribunal expansion first, leading to various lore discussions about his fate after his godhood ends.

Was Dagoth Ur actually a god?

Yes, in The Elder Scrolls lore, Dagoth Ur is considered a god, or at least a being with divine power, by many, especially after he merged with the Heart of Lorkhan, becoming an immortal, powerful entity who sought to impose his will on Tamriel through the Blight and his dream-woven reality, effectively becoming a deity worshipped by his followers and feared by the Tribunal. He's often called "The Sharmat" or "Dreamer God-King," existing beyond mortal constraints, though his "godhood" is tied directly to the Heart, making him a unique, corrupted divine power.

Why did Almalexia go insane?

Almalexia went insane primarily due to the gradual loss of her divine powers after the Heart of Lorkhan was blocked, leading to paranoia, obsession, and a desperate clinging to her identity as a goddess, transforming her from a compassionate figure into a megalomaniacal tyrant who eventually tried to murder her fellow Tribunes and the Nerevarine to regain her glory. Her sanity crumbled as she lost the source of her power and immortality, failing to accept the natural decline that Vivec and Sotha Sil struggled with differently, according to Reddit users and Quora users.

Is Elder Scroll a dream?

Yes, a central, though complex, lore theory in The Elder Scrolls universe is that all of existence is a dream within a sleeping, divine being called the Godhead.

Who is the strongest enemy in Morrowind?

Gaenor. It's kind of ridiculous that Gaenor, a Bosmer pauper, is arguably the strongest enemy in Morrowind, but it's also exactly what we'd expect from Bethesda. Gaenor is capable of killing Almalexia, a level 100 foe, and also a god. He lingers outside Mournhold Temple, and will ask you for a few septims.

Who would win, Jesus or Cthulhu?

In addition, Cthulu is rather sturdy, having a boat ramming into him merely stunning him, plus regeneration. I'll give it 8/10 Cthulu, with Jesus having a slight chance due to being able to multiply things and maybe bury Cthulu until he's immobilized. If he's able to get God's feats, it's a literal Godstomp.
