[edit] Jephre, Elven God of Song and Forest

In Valenwood, Jephre is considered one of the Major Sylvan gods with temples and altars in the deep woodland places. Elven tradition holds that children with a gift for song have been blessed by Jephre himself. Legend has it he blessed the Wood Elves with a natural affinity for nature and particularly the forest. Most Wood Elven Rangers worship Jephre.

[edit] Jhunal, Rune God

The Nordic god of hermetic orders. After falling out of favor with the rest of that pantheon, he became Julianos of the Nine Divines. He is absent in modern Skyrim mythology.

[edit] Jode, Big Moon God

Aldmeri god of the Big Moon. Also called Masser or Mara's Tear. In Khajiiti religion, Jode is only one aspect of the Lunar Lattice, or ja-Kha'jay.

[edit] Jone, Little Moon God

Aldmeri god of the Little Moon. Also called Secunda or Stendarr's Sorrow. In Khajiiti religion, Jone is only one aspect of the Lunar Lattice, or ja-Kha'jay.

[edit] Julianos, God of Wisdom and Logic

Often associated with Jhunal, the Nordic father of language and mathematics, Julianos is the Cyrodiilic god of literature, law, history, and contradiction. Monastic orders founded by Tiber Septim and dedicated to Julianos are the keepers of the Elder Scrolls.

Note: Julian Lefay was the original creator of the Elder Scrolls universe and the games Arena and Daggerfall.

[edit] Jyggalag

Jyggalag is the Daedric prince of Order, but his sphere and other characteristics were not revealed during the early Elder Scrolls games. Prior to The Shivering Isles, Jyggalag had only been mentioned in books such as "On Oblivion" but had not appeared in any games. Jyggalag commands his own Daedra, the Knights of Order, which are spawned from obelisks summoned by his followers, the Priests of Order.

Shivering Isles reveals that Jyggalag is in fact Sheogorath, a fellow Daedric Prince. Jyggalag had grown in power, and the other Daedric princes had grown fearful of him. They cursed him to live as Sheogorath, the incarnation of the thing he hated most. This is also why he does not show up in the Elder Scrolls universe apart from TSI, he spends most of the time as Sheogorath. He was, however, allowed to return to his true form at the end of every era in order to retake the Shivering Isles from his mad alter-ego in an event known as the Greymarch. However, once this was done, Jyggalag would be transformed back into Sheogorath, starting the cycle again. At the end of the third era, at the dawn of the Greymarch, a lone Champion of Sheogorath was given the chance to defeat Jyggalag, halting the Greymarch before it could conquer Sheogorath's Realm. This released Jyggalag from his curse, allowing him to remain in his true form. The Champion was then permitted to assume Sheogorath's station in the Shivering Isles. It is unknown yet if Jyggalag will ever return to the Shivering Isles in an attempt to retake them.
