Other Section[edit]

I'm wondering if we need a different name for the "Other" section on this list. This category should be exclusively for creatures that don't meet the standard definition of Daedra - unmortals, Khajiiti mythology, constructs, and unconfirmed beings. It seems to be serving as more of a catch-all group for regular Daedra who don't fit into the above sections. I recently moved Meridian Guardian out, and I'm not sure if shapeshifers like Doppelgangers and Omens should be listed there. —⁠Legoless (talk) 12:15, 3 March 2023 (UTC)

I'd be alright with a constructs section, Meridian guardians don't fit into humanoid cuz far as I can tell they have no legs. A shapeshifter category wouldn't be bad either, but its complicated cuz of Daedra's ever-changing nature, and Daedra that change between two different kinds (ie Arox going from Titan to Daedrat, Doshia going from Dremora to Harvester, Aelif turning into a Titan somehow).

Maybe we should rename the current "Other" section to something else then? So as to separate the edge cases from genuine Daedra that just don't fit into another category. —⁠Legoless (talk) 20:19, 3 March 2023 (UTC)
"Unclear / Disputed"? That would cover everything there except for the Omens and Doppelgangers, which could be grouped with the Meridian Guardians in a section like "Amorphous" to account for the Omens' variety of forms with no clear original, the nature of the Doppelgangers, and the 'armor' form that the Guardians take.
