She had been murdered by Sinding, (the new farm hand) who had transformed into a werewolf and ripped her apart due to the cursed Ring of Hircine that made his transformations sporadic. Her father and mother had trouble finding enough pieces to give her a "proper burial."

Hircine (The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim)

First Appearance: ?

Played By: Daniel Riordan

Hircine is the Daedric "Lord of the Hunt" and is both the creator and ruler of the "Hunting Ground," his own realm within Oblivion. He had many titles including; "The Spirit of the Hunt", "The Huntsman of Princes" and the "Father of Man-beasts" and is one of the more socially acceptable Daedra to worship, like Azura being seen as not completely evil. 

He is the creator and patron of therianthropic diseases/ illnesses such as Lyncathropy. His presence was discovered later than the other Daedra and although had a summoning day on the 5th Mid Year, the ritual was very rarely done. He sees the God of War, Ebonam as an enemy. 

He is worshiped by the Glenmoril Wyrd Witch Coven, who arranged a deal with the former Harbinger of the Companions- Terrfyg that Hircine will grant them great power if they agree to spend their afterlife in the "Hunting Ground," resulting in the main Circle of the Companions being Werewolves. 



"The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim"

Hircine was furious about the theft of his Ring at the hands of the werewolf Sinding, casting a curse upon the artifact that would take away the control of Sinding's ability to transform whenever he wanted and force him to do it at random times, which resulted in the death of the Caerellia's daughter when Sinding became a werewolf during his hunt for the White Stag. The stag was said to have been a challenge for hunters set up by Hircine to show who was worthy of communing with him. Sinding had hoped- before his arrest for killing the girl- that he could return the ring and beg the Daedra's forgiveness.

The Dragonborn offers to except the cursed Ring and take it to Hircine, killing the creature and ask him to remove the curse.  

After killing the White Stag that was roaming around the Falkreath hold, the Dragonborn is communed by the "Aspect of Hircine", who takes the astral form of the dead animal and congratulates the Dragonborn for what he saw to be a good hunt.

(Please see the Aspect of Hircine- Stag and Aspect of Hircine- Sinding for the rest of the Hircine file)

The White Stag (The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

First Appearance: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

A stag larger than all the others in Skyrim and that had much lighter fur, the stag was said to be a right of passage for those wanting to commune with the "Lord of the Hunt"- Hircine-  but will only do so by those who are skilled enough to slay the "beast".

After being cursed by Hircine for stealing his ring, the werewolf Sinding went in search of the Stag in order that he could return the ring and seek the Daedra's forgiveness. He had located it in the forest outside the town of Falkreath- near a pool- but before he could kill the creature, the curse caused him to transform; which led to the death of the Caerilla's daughter, his arrest and his incarceration in Falkreath hold jail. The White Stag was free to continue roaming the land around the hold.

The Dragonborn offers to kill the creature and accepts the ring from Sinding, so they can return it to the Daedra and remove the curse from the artifact.


"The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim"

Upon learning the location of the stag from Sinding, the Dragonborn seeks the stag and after giving it chase across the hold finally manages to run it down and deliver the final blow. 

Just seconds later the aspect of Hircine appears, taking the form of the dead Stag and communes with the Dragonborn.

High King Torygg (The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim)

 First Appearance: The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Played By: Christian Svensson

The former High King of Skyrim in the Third Century of the Fourth Era, Jarl Torygg of Solitude was the son of High King Istlod and was formally recognised as ruler by the communing moot after Istlod died. He was the husband of Elisif, whom lived with him in the Blue Palace.

He had a high respect for Ulfric Stormcloak's passion for a free and independent Skyrim and planned to hear what the latter had to say with no bias for either Stormcloak or the Empire when he had come to Solitude. It was thought by members of his court that he would have considered Ulfric's proposition and even stood with him if Ulfric would have asked him.

However Ulfric arrived in the Solitude court to challenge his title of king; using his "thu'um" to disarm Torygg and then kill him in a challenge by combat (following the Nord custom of not backing down when a challenge was made in court)- some say with Ulfric's blade, others say "ripped apart" by another "thu'um."

"The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim"

During the Dragonborn's hunt for Alduin in Sovengarde they run into Torygg, who tells them that he fought Ulfric bravely and with honor and questions if Ulfric can claim to feel the same way. He also feels sorrow for his wife having to feel grief for him.

He begins to warn the Dragonborn of the threat of Alduin and that the mist was very easy to get lost in, asking them whether he knew the way as he felt "weary and tired." He tries to persuade them to "turn back" and that "courage is useless" in such danger.

After Alduin is killed by the Dragonborn, Torygg happily exclaims that the mist of Sovengarde had lifted and that the dead have no reason to be scared anymore since "the World-Eater" has been ended. He proclaims that the dead will "sing of you forever" and that they praise him greatly.

The Morag Mural of Creation: Infinity Stones (Guardians of the Galaxy)

First Appearance: Guardians of the Galaxy

A stone mural depicting the  Four Cosmic Entities and the creation of the Infinity Stones- just after the creation of the Universe- from the energy that was expelled by the explosion, that was located in the ancient temple vault on the planet Morag (where the Orb had been hidden.)


"Guardians of the Galaxy"

When Star-Lord broke into the Temple Vault on Morag to retrieve the Orb for the Broker (although going behind Yondu's back- who had arranged the deal) he saw the mural etched onto the floor. During the fight with Korath the Pursuer, the Orb is knocked from his hand and hits the floor and rolls on top of the Mural.

While Taneleer explains the origins of the Infinity Stones, he shows Star-Lord, Groot, Rocket and Gamora a hologram of the mural (whether or not the picture is taken from the temple is unknown, but the mural is identical). 

The Four Cosmic Entities (Guardians of the Galaxy)

First Appearance: The Avengers (Mentioned only)

A group of four cosmic beings that lived before the Universe itself was even created; Death, Entropy, Infinity and Eternity were the forgers of "the six singularities" that would eventually become the Infinity Stones- The Energy of the creation of the Universe compacted into "six concentrated ingots."


"Guardians of the Galaxy"

Inside the Temple Vault on the planet Morag- where The Orb had been kept hidden- the ancient civilisation who created the structure etched a mural that depicted the four Cosmic Beings and the forging of the Stones.

When Taneleer Tivan was explaining the origin of the Infinity Stones to Rocket, Star-Lord, Gamora and Groot (before the Guardians of the Galaxy became an official team), he shows them a hologram of the same mural as well as several of the stones.
