What if the heroes are actually aspects of Sithis? Think about it from the moment you start the games to the end, you become a walking death machine. I wouldn't think that if the divines blessed a mortal with the ability to slay anything in his path if the divines are all about peace and life. Also Sithis seemes to have no problem with the hero being of men or mer, unlike Lorkhan. In Oblivion and Skyrim if you were to join the Dark Brotherhood you are the one that becomes the listener, and the night mother always seems to favor you over any of the other members. She even states in Oblivion that from the moment of your birth your fate was written in the void (i may be paraphrasing). Meaning that you may infact be a child of Sithis sent to stop these world ending events because if there is no world, there is no death to feed Sithis.

No what if the player doesn't become a member of the Dark Brotherhood? how can he/she be a aspect of Sithis? well think about all the death that happens at the hand of the Heroes. I would think that the deaths would still enter the void for Sithis weather they know it or not. The hero also slaughters half the population of the province your in and nobody bats an eye (save for breaking the law) and the hero just moves on with no emotional repercussion and in fact becomes stonger for it. I know in from at least in Morrowind (can't speak for the first two games as i have not played them) the Dark Brotherhood trys to kill you in some random attacks, but what if that is the Night Mothers way of getting your attention, calling you home in a sense.

So in my conclusion I believe that at least from the Hero of Kavatch to the Dragonborn you may in fact be a literal child of Sithis that was put on Nirn to with the willpower and ability i.e. dragonblood to save the world so that more death happens to feed Sithis.

I know i may sound like a death worshiping psyco but as i was reading this thread and seeing the logical conclusions that others have come to I haven't seen a theory as to this point. I guess Gravitate to this is becuase I find that the Dark Brotherhood has the best storylines in the games.
