Xiuhcoatl the fire serpent: Daedric prince of flames, light and incineration

Appearance: a muscular Argonian male with a serpentine lower half instead of legs and two Alduin styled wings on his back. Wears a burning daedric chestplate and flaming daedric gauntlets. All his scales are black and his face is like that of a revered dragon, except its ebony dark and his eyes glow orange. He wields a flaming scythe in his hands. Also, he has a flaming daedric greatsword of reduced size that he uses one handed, as well as a massive repetoir of fire spells.

Backstory: Xiuhcoatl was originally an argonian mage who lived in ages long past, studying the art of magic under a tsaesci teacher, who trained him in the arts swordfighting, scythe fighting, fist fignting etc. He learnt that of the 5 lines of magic, two suited him best - alteration could render him invincible while destruction was far more efficient that daedric summoning or melding minds. For all his control over the supernatural, he was best at pyromancy, where even the most basic spell he cast incinerated dunmer who wore an entire set of magic resisting gear and fire resisting gear. He soon had a full mastery of destruction, using it to level entire armies. The freezing of atmora was the last ice spell he cast, as he decided that he hated the cold.

However, the as the lizard wizard grew older and his mastery over alteration increased to on par with his destruction, he found out that the world was like a spring - it pushes back if you push it feebly, like the attempts of the most powerful alteration masters, but if you could push it hard enough, the shape change is permanent. Xiuhcoatl found his answers and decided that he wanted more power, the power to shape the material plane.

And so he did gain more power, through using his mastery over the world to fuse himself with a black dragon by force, mortal and dragon soul fusing as one as the pair dueled over the throat of the world. His tsaesci master attempted to stop him, but failed horribly as his soul was absorbed into the resulting soul vortex as well. The three souls underwent an emantiomorph and became one being, a mosiac of all three and yet none of them, having all their memories. The new being still called himself Xiuhcoatl, as the argonian mage had the most willpower, allowing him to overpower the other two and absorb them completely. The new false god had radically altered his apperance and he was now in control of flames enough to turn oblivion in its entirety to ashes.

And so the infernal serpent ascended into godhood, achieveing CHIM by using his alteration as a power to warp the world into a favourable realm for doing so. WIth his increase in power, he created the phosphorum, the pyrokinetic sphere of infinite flame, a world that is comprised of flames and only flames. No soul, Mortal, Daedric or Aedric, besides his own, can enter the plane, for they will be incinerated.

Xiuhcoatl has left the material plane, but his presence can still be felt through his artifact, the scythe of pyrokinesis, the very scythe that he wields, gifted to mortals who are willing to incinerate their beloved as a sacrifice to recieve his unholy artifact. The wielder of the scythe is surrounded by a powerful flame cloak and all its attacks inflict horrific burns directly to the souls of those unlucky enough to be cut by it. Also, it will perform a firestorm after every power attack and after a kill, it occasionally summons a meteor storm if the wielder is outdoors. However, the unnatural power of the scythe burns its wielder severely, so one who holds it must be mindful of when to tap into its abilities.
