God of the Eight Divines/Nine Divines, Stendarr has evolved from his Nordic origins into a deity of compassion or, sometimes, righteous rule by might and merciful forbearance. Stendarr is the inspiration of magistrates and rulers, and the patron of the Imperial Legion. He is said to have accompanied Tiber Septim in his later years. In early Altmeri legends, Stendarr is the apologist of Men. Stendarr created the Gauntlets of the Crusader for Pelinal Whitestrake, to help him defeat Umaril the Unfeathered. He also created Stendarr's Hammer.
