"Chaos" as it is named, in Greek Mythology, is also not really considered a god, simply put, it is just there. While Elder Scrolls Lore draws on some elements of Greek Mythology, they mostly follow a Taoist Duality belief that can be seen in most everything throughout the Elder Scrolls Universe, which draws upon Chinese Mythology.

Sithis and Tartarus are not the same. Besides Sithis banging up the Night Mother, something some speculate, including me, isn't what actually happened, but just a crackpot zombie induced by vampiric or possibly Molag Bal forces, as it seems so out of the ordinary for suc a character to do so, Sithis doesn't actually do anything other than interplay with Anu, who in turn doesn't do anything. Why this woman? How? It makes no sense. Tartarus on the other hand, is actually a living thing inside Gaea, the Earth, in Greek Mythology, and actually does stff, which we can conclude he is actually a living entity. Father of the Giants and all. The only thing I really see in common with both of them is they are both associated with Darkness, but even in that they are different. Sithis, or Padomay, isn't necessarily evil, but just Nothingness, or the Void. Tartarus is Greek Hell. Padomay is just Nothing. I wouldn't say Tartarus was the most powerful god either. Besides being the father of giants, there is nothing to suggest he was any more powerful than his fellow primordial bretheren.
