@Prince of Pacts

Again, another example of how flexibly the Daedric Princes can be interpreted.

@all Trying to assign Daedric Princes D&D alignments is extremely difficult if not entirely futile, because unlike mortals they think in an entirely different way (since our psychology is inherently tied to the workings of the mortal plane and theirs are not) and we don't really understand their psychologies or why they do they things they do; we can only guess, and while the hypothesis formulated by mortals of Daedric "spheres" somewhat explains their strange behavior, it may just be an expedience, especially because there are sometimes disagreements among cultures about what their spheres are. Vivec hypothesises that they have no ability to act outside of their "spheres", but maybe this is just a mortal rationalization after the fact of their behavior.
