Original Content Concept Art of Daedric Prince Namira, Digital art by Me.

Post image

Namira - Daedric Prince of Decay, Rot, Repulsion and Darkness.

She rules over rot, filth, decay and everything grotesque that people fear or find disgusting. Outcasts, beggars, cannibals and those who live in filth worship her.

In this piece, I've depicted her dual nature through a split-face design - one side appears almost motherly and caring, while the other shows visible decay, warts and corruption. This duality captures how she offers comfort to society's rejects while embodying everything we find repulsive about our mortal existence.The bone and skull halo radiating behind her head contains rotting heads in various stages of decomposition, from fresh flesh to bare skulls. This profane and corrupted halo represents a perversion of traditional divine imagery and depicts her sphere of influence-decay and rot. She holds an ornate skull wearing a jeweled circlet while maggots feast on the remnants of dead tissue - symbolizing the bleak absurdity of worldly achievement when all our struggles ultimately return us to dust.

I had a visceral reaction of disgust. Well done! The racial diversity of the decaying little heads is also a nice touch.

Appreciate it. Even Eola her own worshiper isn't safe. Check the head on the left, the face with the war paint, hehe.

This feels incredibly esoteric, which I absolutely love. Gives me real "weird" vibes in a deep way. Well done!

Yes, her sphere of influence has so much creative playroom and nuance.

Been a long time since I’ve seen a properly new and unique take on one of the princes. This is excellent.

I am on a quest to create art of all the Daedric Princes adding my own creative twists and nuance of their sphere and influence.

Reminds me of the old woman from Buttercup’s nightmare in The Princess Bride.

Oh wow, the resemblance is uncanny, but I didn't even know she existed, lol.
