Divayth Fyr, a male Dunmer, is an ancient Sorcerer and the caretaker of the Corprusarium and the only person in the game who can cure your Corprus disease. He is a member of Great House Telvanni, though he generally stays out of House politics. Although he is the oldest and one of the most respected members of the House, he is not a member of and has no desire to join the Council. He can be found at the top of the tower of Tel Fyr (You will need to Levitate to reach him), where he lives with his four "daughters," Alfe, Beyte, Delte, and Uupse, who he reveals are actually female clones of himself. He appears to be the oldest mortal character in the game.

Divayth has a full set (minus helm) of Daedric armor, a token of his long life, which contains the only Daedric Pauldrons and the only unenchanted Daedric Cuirass in Vvardenfell. Unfortunately, you cannot obtain them from him without a fight. Killing him is an extremely bad idea, as he is essential for a major section of the Main Quest. Instead, you can acquire them by casting Disintegrate Armor on him repeatedly until they break, then casting Calm Humanoid to stop him from attacking you, and pickpocketing the broken armor off him and repairing it. This is the only way to get a complete set of the armor without both the Tribunal and Bloodmoon expansions installed.

Before coming to Morrowind, Divayth Fyr was a member of the Psijic Order. He was taken in by the Order as a gifted youth in magic, knowledge, and the pursuit of truth. Eventually, he left because of matters of personal interest. He abandoned the Old Ways and devoted his life in the study of the New Ways, the Ways of the Dwemer.

There are several hints in his dialogue and in Tel Fyr itself that Divayth is in fact the hero of Battlespire. For example, there is a Small Ornate Lockbox in his room that contains the Daedric Sanctuary Amulet that, when worn, will teleport the player to Magas Volar, a Daedric room reminiscent of Battlespire. In the room, the player must face Lord Dregas Volar, a unique named Dremora who carries the Daedric Crescent, a unique weapon featured in Battlespire.

Fyr is also likely to be the most knowledgeable person in the game, and along with Yagrum Bagarn, can teach you much about the Dwemer. He takes a deep interest in their history, as is evident in his workroom, where you may find many Dwemer artifacts. His luxurious care of Bagarn is also a testament to his pursuits. He considers the Corprusarium to be his "hobby," claiming that all ancient wizards need one.

[edit] Notes

• Divayth Fyr is an honorary member of House Telvanni, but he is not technically a member of the Telvanni faction. This was probably done so that his disposition does not lower if you are a member of one of the rival Houses or factions.
• He is mentioned in the books The Doors of Oblivion and Varieties of Daedra.
• Interestingly, Divayth's daughters' names correspond with three of the first four letters of the Greek alphabet, Alpha, Beta, and Delta, while Uupse corresponds with the fifth-to-last letter, Upsilon. (Not to be confused with the fifth Greek letter, Epsilon.) One might wonder what happened to the Gamma model.
• At one point in the Telvanni questline, Master Aryon requests that Divayth Fyr join the Council. In response, Fyr politely refuses.
