So why can't he awaken and end the universe. I bet Alduin eating Nirn and Sovernguard would have awakened him, thus destroying the whole Aurbis, if the Dragonborn hadn't stopped him. Also, why CAN'T he effect the dream. It's possible to lucid dream IRL, so it should be possible for the Godhead to interact with the events going on in his dream. Perhaps the hero of each game is just the godhead's version of himself in his dream. There's also speculation that godhead is what's keeping Tamriel technologically fixed, so that the mortals don't blow each other up with nukes or something. The Godhead exists PURELY to sleep and dream. It can wake up, but it instantly falls back asleep, as proven via the evidence posted before.
