Sheogorath is the Daedric Prince of Madness and ruler of the Shivering Isles. He tasks the player with stopping the Daedric Prince of Order Jyggalag from invading the Isles, an event known as the Greymarch. It is discovered only after you have successfully stopped the Greymarch that Sheogorath is not Sheogorath at all, but is in fact Jyggalag, who was cursed by his fellow Daedric kin to forever become the Prince of Madness. Every era, Jyggalag was allowed to be restored to his true form and invade his own realm destroying the madness that his alter ego had created. This curse is upon him until he can find some way of breaking the cycle, and luckily for him, his alternate personality didn't wish to continue it either. After defeating Jyggalag, he explains all of this to you, and the reason behind it was simply that the other princes were frustrated or even jealous of the order he maintained. You find out that it has always been Sheogorath's plan (Jyggalag's as well) that you become the new Sheogorath, and with the "destruction" of Jyggalag and the end of the Greymarch, you are appointed new ruler of the Shivering Isles, and Prince Sheogorath of Madness. Jyggalag is then returned to the waters of Oblivion to be free. So at this point in the game the correct definition of Sheogorath is you, the player. You are now the first Mortal to be titled with being a Daedric prince, and the first to ever rule over a Daedric realm. Keep in mind though, even the Prince of Madness has responsibilities, as Haskill will remind you.

[edit] Notes

• If for any reason you want to attack Sheogorath, you'll find he has a spell that teleports you straight to Execution Point. To be more precise, he teleports you several thousand feet above Execution Point. Gravity takes you the rest of the way there.
• Sheogorath is voiced by Wes Johnson.
