Usually if I'm playing an evil character I'll go for the staff or if I'm virtuous I'll choose Erandur. My most recent character is a virtuous type but I started to notice just how much of an untrustworthy liar Erandur is. I gave him a pass on his history of being a reformed former daedra worshipper but even with that he's evasive and deceptive regarding what he knows. A list of things he's not being completely honest about include: the barrier, the Dreamstride, Vaermina's Torpor, how the temple initially fell, and his involvement in it. He coldbloodedly strides through the temple killing orcs and daedra worshippers alike, worshippers that were formerly his friends. At the last, his former friends, Veren and Thorek, call him out on his cowardice and treachery but he claims they're lying. Erandur doesn't know, however, that we were in his head during the Dreamstride, and we know that he's the liar. Vaermina is known for her penchant for evil omens so when she claims that Erandur will betray the Dragonborn it's not all that implausible.
