The Daedric Princes (sometimes referred to as Daedra Lords, or the Old Gods by Reachmen) are the most powerful of the Daedra and thus most commonly worshipped by mortals as deities. While Daedra can manifest as either male or female (being, in reality, genderless), all of these high Daedra are typically referred to as "Princes." In all, there are sixteen widely known Princes, with a "seventeenth" prince, Jyggalag, emerging following the events of The Elder Scrolls IV: Shivering Isles, at the end of the Third Era.
Every Daedric Prince has their own specific plane of Oblivion, which reflects their nature.[4]
