Did Mannimarco ascended to replace Arkay as the God of Life and Death? Elder Scrolls Oblivion Lore

In the grand theatre of fiction, where villains are often just shadows for heroes to punch, there are those few who burn with a light of their own, a cold, dark, ambitionfueled star. Mannimarco, the King of Worms, stands among the Elder Scrolls’ most formidable antagonists, not merely as a villain, but as a will made manifest. He is driven by an ambition so cold and self-contained that it rivals the most compelling figures in all speculative myth. His ascent began in the First Era on Artaeum, within the inner circle of the Psijic Order, where he studied as a peer to Vanus Galerion. Where Galerion envisioned magic as a force to be shared and elevated beyond secrecy, Mannimarco’s immense aptitude bent inward, fixating on what magic was never meant to command: death itself. This philosophical divide became irreconcilable. When Galerion uncovered Mannimarco’s experiments, his manipulation of souls through mysticism and his early reanimations of the dead, the result was exile. Cast out from Artaeum, Mannimarco abandoned restraint entirely. He established the Order of the Black Worm and pursued necromancy without limit, ultimately transcending mortality through lichdom, a perilous metamorphosis demanding absolute will and the violent harvesting of souls. As his power swelled, Mannimarco ceased to operate on the margins of history. He entangled himself with emperors and empires, most infamously deceiving Varen Aquilarios into enacting a profaned ritual that triggered the Soulburst. This catastrophe tore at the boundary between Mundus and Oblivion, granting Molag Bal the opening needed to initiate the Planemeld. Yet even this was not the summit of his ambition. During the Warp in the West, Mannimarco seized the Mantella and achieved apotheosis, ascending into the firmament as the Necromancer’s Moon, the Revenant. In this form, he stands in direct defiance of Arkay, eclipsing the god’s dominion over life and death and enabling the creation of Black Soul Gems. Whether walking the world as a mortal mage, reigning as an undying lich, or looming overhead as a celestial god-form, Mannimarco endures as a testament to unrestrained ambition, a reminder of how far brilliance can rise once morality is discarded.
