Auri-El

Not to be confused with Anui-El. Auri-El or Auriel is the Elven variant of Akatosh, the chief god of the Nine Divines. Auri-El is seen by the Snow Elves as the creator of everything. He is often seen as chief of the Aldmeri Pantheon, by his followers.

History
Most Altmer and Bosmer claim direct descendance from Auri-El. In his only known moment of weakness, he agreed to take his part in the creation of the mortal plane. That act forever sundered the Elves from the spirit's world of eternity. To make up for it, Auri-El led the original Aldmer against the armies of Lorkhan in the Mythic Era. Together Auri-El, Trinimac, the other Aedra, and the Aldmer vanquished Lorkhan and established the first kingdom of the Aldmer, Aldmeris. He then ascended to Heaven in full observance of his followers so that they might learn the steps needed to escape the mortal plane.
