Dagoth Ur (Character)

Dagoth Ur, known as Voryn Dagoth in life, and whom Vivec would later come to call The Sharmat, was a powerful Chimer lord and Lord High Councillor to House Dagoth, and is the main antagonist of .

Early life and Councilorship
Voryn Dagoth was born into the great house Dagoth. Accounts of his early life are few but it is known that he did later in life become the Lord High Councillor of the house. After the defeat of the Nords at the first Battle of Red Mountain, the Chimer and Dwemer formed an alliance known as the First Council, formed by Indoril Nerevar and Dumac, the king of the Dwemer in Morrowind. The First Council lasted for centuries, until Voryn - through unknown means - claimed to have discovered that the Tonal Architect of the Dwemer, Kagrenac had found the Heart of Lorkhan and that the Dwemer would use the power of the heart to create a giant Golem known as the Numidium, to use against the Chimer. Voryn, along with Nerevar, Vivec, Nerevar's wife, Almalexia, and Sotha Sil were the only ones before Kagrenac to learn about the heart. The Daedric Prince Azura later confirmed Voryn's claims and Nerevar declared war on the Dwemer, culminating in the race's disappearance at Red Mountain.
