(Plothole?)  if nerevar was a shezarr then the nerevarine by definition is as well, in the lore specific shezarrines are mentioned: pelinal whitestrake, hjalti early beard, ysmir, Wulfharth, all incarnations of the underking. however neither the nerevarine or nerevar are on this list, furthermore, most shezarrines who are actually noted by lore are of the race of man. I'm not sure if its impossible for shezzarine to be mer, but I would imagine lorkhan would favor man to represent his actions. my conclusion then is that   nerevar (nor his incarnation) are in fact an embodiment/emissary/champion of lorkhan.

as for the hero of kvatch becoming sheogorath (or at least gaining the title of Daedric prince of madness) it never really made much sense then that you see the original sheogorath in Skyrim and not the hero of kvatch. so did the real sheogorath just come back at some point in the 200 years and kick the hero of kvatch off his isles? or perhaps thats why he was on "vacation" in the first place, because the hero of kvatch is still there running things until the dovahkiin convinces sheogorath to return home?

some of these mysteries could be results of dragon breaks (I feel that is how bethesda may officially deal with the Empire V Stormcloak war in future games if they don't do something more final with a DLC) however it is definitely impossible for them to litterally be the same person as we know nerevarine and the hero of kvatch were alive at the same time. time is more maleable to the spirits and aetherius however, so the thought of 2 people sharing the same (extremely heroic) soul at the same time is not completely out of the question, though evidence points against it... would like to say that when a deadra dies on the mortal plane their spirit travels to thir original plane ant their bodys reform so when the hero of kavach dies on the mortal plane his spirit travels to the shivering isles and reforms in to have the same apperance as the old sheogorath

p.s. sorry about grammer just got a prothstetic hand and learning to type with it.
