That's kinda the main problem with Oblivion, it had so many cool built up characters lore-wise, but the execution for them when it came to gameplay was just bad. Take Mannimarco for instance, he's supposed to be the ascended god king of necromancers, but in the game he's just a weak pompous high elf that you kill in a few swings in the back of some random cave. A lot of cool very important lore things happened in Oblivion, but you'd never really know that without actually reading up on it.

You know, with the Skelton Key you could theoretically unlock the Razor's ability to effect Mehrunes Dagon, thereby unlocking it's true potential of effecting the only entity it was ever prevented from effecting. With the power of the key and razor you could bypass any barriers and reshape the entire world as you see fit. The Dragonborn has access to both of these items. If they were to ever discover this fact, there isn't an Aedra or Daedra powerful enough to stop them if they so chose. They could transcend any and all limitations and become a true god

It's kinda scary to have the timeline of the games put into perspective: the fact that Oblivion takes place only two years after Morrowind, but Skyrim takes place a full 200 years after Oblivion. This makes you wonder how old some characters actually are, like Cicero who is cited to have been in Cyrodiil prior to the fall of the Imperial City, and, to an even greater extent (assuming it's the same person each time) M'aiq, who, according to this, is over 200 years old.

[@MLPDethDealr32]

The Dagger that i used to end Emperor Titus Meade. So in a way history repeated itself. The Dark Brotherhood Assassinated Pelagious.

[@KryyssTV]

I feel you may have misunderstood what Camoran did to himself. In the mythic dawn first commentaries Camoran speaks of going into seclusion, something happening to cause him to "speak with a new voice" after he "offered himself to that daybreak". All of this suggests that he used the razor to kill himself but for whatever reason it severed his connection to the mortal realm instead thereby making him immortal like Daedra. Being just like Daedra, he was not bound to just one form upon ressurection. Indeed, Daedra can look totally different upon their reincarnation. It would therefore follow that Camoran would now be able to take the form of any mortal race - including being Dragonborn. In the same commentaries he says, "Mankar Camoran was once you, asleep, unwise, protonymic, but Am No More". The word protonymic is a word created by TES writers and based upon words like matronymic which means to have a name based upon your mother. Protonymic therefore means "before named". What is interesting with this is that in order to summon Daedra, you need to know their true name. Camoran now had a true name as well which is further proof that he was like a Daedra. So, what this all means is that Camoran simply used Mehrunes razor on himself after retreating to solitude when no one would listen to his preaching. He tried to commit suicide but actually severed his connection to Nirn and became like a Daedra with all the benefits and drawback which come from that existence.
