Hermaeus Mora has collected an unimaginable amount of knowledge, has strong ties to Aka and his forbidden knowledge includes the Bend Will shout, which is lore-wise unimaginably powerful, CHIM, the Godhead, the Psijic Endeavor, etc.

Hircine has, or had, quite some power over Solstheim.

I have clicked the link, and I have read Vehk's Teachings several times already.

And we still don't know if an Ur-Dra does have any kind of special powers. ''Nocturnal is accorded the title Ur-dra by nearly all the Royalty of Oblivion. As the mother of night, she claims to be an aspect of the original Void itself, and it is generally deemed best to fortify this declaration in one’s evening prayers.'' - Imperial Census on Daedra Lords

Sheogorath is only connected to the Void insofar as other writers (ie not MK, whose word I'm gonna take on this matter) have called him that. But he isn't connected to the Void itself, other than being the subgradiated soul of a being who resides in it. He's just as much void as Anuiel is.

OMG he had some power over Solstheim? Must be the most powerful! XD ...Still doesn't say what powers a Ur-Dra has.

And Sheogorath is one of the remnants of the direct subgradient of Sithis, which is the direct subgradient of Padomay, which is Change.

I never read about Nocturnal having much power on a specific place on Nirn, except maybe the Twilight Sepulcher.
