Shivering:Dark Seducer

The UESPWiki – Your source for The Elder Scrolls since 1995

Dark Seducers are Sheogorath's Daedric guards in Dementia, and can be found guarding the Crucible section of New Sheoth. Their base is at Pinnacle Rock, where Sheogorath placed a wellspring from which they are able to enter and live in his realm. They are rivals with the Golden Saints and the two can often be found battling each other.

Dark Seducers exhibit little beyond their appearance to match their names, and can seldom be considered seductive. While they too assert their superiority over all others in the realm, they appear to have a more patient, introspective nature than their Golden Saint rivals. They often appear humble in their dealings with mortals, and are known to be patient with the "lesser races". Like the Golden Saints, they are matriarchal society, with the males playing secondary roles. They call themselves Mazken.

Most of the Dark Seducers are related to Shivering Isle's Main Quest. They generally have no unique name. The generic varieties of Dark Seducer that you may encounter are:

• Dark Seducer
• Dark Seducer Guard
• Dark Seducer Archer
• Dark Seducer Warrior
• Dark Seducer Mage
• Dark Seducer Kiskedrig
• Dark Seducer Grakedrig

For more information about Dark Seducers read the book Saints and Seducers.

[edit] Bugs

• Dark Seducers refer to male characters as "The Duchess of Mania." The bug is due to the Dark Seducer dialogue checking her own gender instead of the player's gender.
  • This bug is fixed by the Unofficial Shivering Isles Patch.
