Born several hundred years after the birth of Nirn, formed of the sick of the earth by Namira's hand. Nakyalag takes the form and power of a daedric demiprince. He is the icon of mold, the fly in your soup, an idol of poor harvest and other food-related misfortunes. He enforces the laws of decay, and subsequentally, rebirth.

Nakyalag is most commonly associated with olms, worms, moles, fungus, and termites.

Nakyalag greatly enjoys meddling in the affairs of mortals, and revels in the few summonings he receives. Though he doesnt require a summoning to manifest on Nirn. He takes joy in hearing out requests or pleas, only to twist their words in a monkey's paw fashion. His presence is often blamed for food that has spoiled too early. This myth does have merit, as in his presence, food rots extremely quick, and liquids will coagulate into a brown sludge. Mold colonies and fungi will spring up in areas he has graced.

Nakyalag generally just enjoys taking the piss out of mortals. Most of the trouble he causes is for his own amusement, and though he rarely ever intends to directly kill people, he wouldnt necessarially care if he did. He isnt afraid to quarrel with beings of his own or lesser power, but he keeps his head down around Princes.
