Molag Bal is a good choice. He would likely try to throw a wrench into the monkey works later on if he wasn't gaining the most out of the alliance though. I expect betrayal on his end.

Mehrunes Dagon is quite obvious, but a good choice. He's been an antagonist in two games, and it's obvious what he wants. I can see him as the ringleader, at least by force.

Namira? She seems fairly passive compared to the other three, even if she covers rot and decay. Personally, I would've went with Vaermina, since she's more actively hostile, what with her governing nightmares and stuff.

Ah, Peryite. Really good choice. Organizer of the lower planes of Oblivion, Lord of Pestilence, all around jerk. He would also gain a lot out of this too, since despite what he does, he's still one of the weakest Princes around. Either him or Sheogorath would be fitting final bosses/actual antagonists.

My main issue is in when the main plot comes to fruition. I'd dial Jyggalagg and the true level of Daedric elements back towards the middle of the plot, where the true scope of the issue can be revealed as a plot point. I'd actually have the protagonist get rescued by a group of people opposed towards the Thalmor like DDH says in the beginning and then have said conflict be the backdrop for an even bigger clash in Oblivion. My dissent is really towards the when, not the what or how. At least at the moment.
