A Dragonborn for example may be able to do it, granted they can absord enough Dragon souls, but that would mean they need Akatosh's blessing. You see what I mean?

In addition, the Aedra are almost impossible to reach, so finding them would be another challenge. It has actually been done a few times. (The Sun Birds of Alinor, for example).
