Also, just wanted to touch on this. I have a hard time with the Anu=Aedra and Padomay=Daedra thing. There are many reasons why I feel like this is wrong, but Jyggylag is the easiest to point out. He's daedra and excessively anuic. Also, if the Daedra were Padomaic, don't you think that they'd have liked the idea of Mundus that destroyed the universe as they knew it?

Also, if Lorkhan is an Aedroth, then he's absolutely the most Padomaic Aedroth. (although I don't subscribe to the whole idea of Lorkhan being Aedra, just used this to illustrate a point). Well, Daedra don't have to necessarily be padomaic, nor do Aedra have to necessarily be anuic. As you said, Jyggalag is extremely anuic. So is (probably) Peryite, and Meridia maybe as well (although Meridia was a Magna Ge at first). Lorkhan, if he is considered a Aedra, is extremely padomaic, as you said.

Technically seen, Aedra just means 'our ancestors', which means that the spirits dubbed 'Aedra' were the ones to help Lorkhan and Magnus create Mundus and Nirn. Daedra means 'not our ancestors', meaning that these spirits did not help them in any way.
