Daggerfall:The Night Mother

The UESPWiki – Your source for The Elder Scrolls since 1995

At the head of the Dark Brotherhood hierarchy is the Night Mother, an immortal spirit who is revered and worshiped by the Brotherhood. She is only ever met face-to-face in very exceptional circumstances and is seen as a phantom-like form. When a person prays for the death of another, the Night Mother hears and passes on the details of the prayer to her Listener. At this point, the Listener informs a Speaker, who then goes to meet the hiring party in order to draw up a contract. It is said that the Night Mother and her children were the first sacrifices to Sithis many years ago.

[edit] Notes

• It is not known whether she exists as actual person in the game, but she is one of the many political factions that exist.
