mara and stendarr because love and mercy, i suppose. it just makes sense. i dunno though, i just agree with their teachings/ways. i don't approve of the vigilants of stendarr though.

lorkhan because lorkhan, guys. without him there wouldn't be existence. pretty cool dude.

akatosh and not auri-el because i think that despite both man & mer creation myths being correct, mannish religion was more accurate in depicting this god. anyways, our favorite priest-turned-emperor-turned-god was a facet of this guy, and we're his son in skyrim, so we do owe quite a bit to him. Vigilants of Stendarr follow the orders of Stendarr exactly. Not only are they actually merciful, but they will only show hostility towards the PC, when and if the PC are a threat to mortals. Bounties in holds count as a threat and so, they will chase you if you're a thief, murderer, or dangerous magician. In other words, they are merciful towards your victims.

Lorkhan was partly responsible for the disappearance of the dwemer. An entire race, he wiped out! Because of that, men and mer have differing opinions on him. The mer think him evil and the men think him good.

Akatosh and Auri-El are the exact same daedra's, just different forms and different names of the same divine.

Do you mean Talos/ Tiber Septim? In what way is Septim a facet of Akatosh? Who's son are we in Skyrim?

If you mean Talos: No-where and no-when does it say that he is the last dragonborn's father.

If you mean Akatosh: I'm guessing that you mean that since Akatosh is the father of all dragons, that the last dragonborn is the son of him. Just because the last dragonborn has the soul of a dragon, doesn't mean anything, except for him/ her being the Born hunter of Dragonkind.

Also, I have a feeling that Akatosh would despise the last dragonborn more than the previous ones, because of how many dragons he's killed. The last dragonborn would definitely attempt and possibly succeed at destroying Akatosh. If he does, the other Daedra would fear him. Even Jyggalag, at the time of Greymarch.
