{{Lore Link|Magnus (god)|Magnus}}, also known as the god of magic, was a prominent {{Lore Link|et'Ada}}, one of the Original Spirits. During the {{Lore Link|Dawn Era}}, {{Lore Link|Lorkhan}} persuaded Magnus and several other et'Ada to help create the mortal plane, {{Lore Link|Mundus}}. Magnus was said to have been the architect of Mundus, as he created the schematics and diagrams needed to construct it.{{Ref|name=TM|{{Cite book|The Monomyth}}}}{{Ref|name=VoFitE|{{Cite book|Varieties of Faith in the Empire}}}}{{Ref|name=BtAoM|{{Cite book|Before the Ages of Man}}}}
As Mundus began to form, it became evident that many of the et'Ada would be required to sacrifice much of their power in order to form the mortal plane.{{Ref|name=BtAoM}} As their aspects began to die off, many of the et'Ada vanished completely.{{ref|name=TM}} Magnus decided to terminate the project.{{Ref|name=BtAoM}} He fled to {{Lore Link|Aetherius}} in the last of Mundus' birth-pains, and his departure tore a hole which became {{Lore Link|Nirn}}'s sun, itself known as Magnus.{{Ref|name=TM}}{{Ref|name=VoFitE}}{{Ref|name=BtAoM}}{{Ref|name=36LoV33|{{Cite book|36 Lessons of Vivec, Sermon 33}}}}<noinclude>

In the eras that followed, many {{Lore Link|Altmer}} and [[Lore:Breton|Bretons]] venerated Magnus as a god and he became a part of their respective pantheons.{{Ref|name=VoFitE}} The [[Lore:Ayleid|Ayleids]], masters of the arcane arts, worshiped him as the god of Sight, Light, and Insight and were known to dedicate temples in his name.{{Ref|name=GaL|{{Cite book|Glories and Laments}}}}
[[Lore:Cyrodiil|Cyrodiilic]] legends say Magnus can inhabit the bodies of powerful mages and lend them his power. He is also associated with {{Lore Link|Zurin Arctus}}, the Underking and is sometimes represented by an astrolabe, a telescope, or, more commonly, a staff.{{Ref|name=VoFitE}}

He supposedly created and used the {{Lore Link|Staff of Magnus}}, one of the elder artifacts of {{Lore Link|Tamriel}}.

In {{Lore Link|Cyrodiil}}, a {{Lore Link|Doomstones|magical stone}}, supposedly associated with a long-forgotten cult, can be found southeast of {{Lore Link|Bravil}}.
