Talos

[Aroht]

Hello everyone,

What make talos so special ?

-he is a tower (he hold the world together)

-he is an oversoul (talos)

-he use and control the numidium

-he mantled lorkhan

-and if all of that is not enough, he reach the state of CHIM

How is it possible ? Vivec for exemple only reach CHIM, he temporary became a god due to the heart of lorkhan but not a real god like talos did.

What is a "real god" then? It's entirely subjective. Talos was called a god because he mantled Lorkhan, whereas the Tribunal merely used Lorkhan's heart as their path to godhood, Vivec, however, is different, where Sotha Sil and Almalexia fueled their godhood solely from the heart, Vivec attained enlightenment and achieved CHIM, if anything, that makes him more of a "real god" than any Aedra or Daedra.

The Tribunal were certainly powerful enough to be considered gods in their own right, though I suppose the reason they aren't considered "real gods" is because they took godhood from the heart and were once mortal.

Vivec is and remains a god, as he always has been.

He is called a divines because he mantled lorkhan yes, but for the "reality" he does have a great importance no ? If vivec being zero-sum no bad things happen but if talos is zero-sum what happen to mundus ?

That is true, Talos does have great importance to reality whereas Vivec does not, that doesn't make either any less of a god though, as for what would happen if Talos zero-summed, that, I cannot tell you for certain, but I assume The Aurbis would destabilize and probably be destroyed.
