:''"He is the pus in the wound. Oh, proper ones curl their noses, but it's pus that drinks foul humors and restores the blood. I worship Peryite, yes, because sometimes the world can only be cleansed by disease."'' — Kesh the Clean{{ref|name=SRKesh the Clean|[[Skyrim:Kesh the Clean|Kesh the Clean]]'s dialogue in [[Skyrim:Skyrim|Skyrim]].}}</noinclude>

{{Lore Link|Peryite}}, also known by the title of the '''Taskmaster'''{{ref|name=TBOD|{{Cite book|The Book of Daedra}}}}, is one of the Seventeen {{Lore Link|Daedric Princes}} that dwell within the realm of {{Lore Link|Oblivion}}. Although he is typically depicted as a green four-legged {{Lore Link |dragon}} (and often takes on the form of one), Peryite is considered one of the weakest of the Princes. His sphere of influence includes tasks, natural order (to not be confused with the perfect order of {{Lore Link|Jyggalag}}), and pestilence.{{ref|name=SRLoading|[[Skyrim:Loading_Screens#Daedric_Princes|Skyrim Loading Screen]]}}<noinclude> Some unfortunate {{Lore Link|Dremora}} Churls and Caitiffs find themselves in the employ of the Taskmaster.{{ref|name=LFAYQ|{{Cite book|Lyranth the Foolkiller Answers Your Questions}}}}

==The Blighted Lord==
:''"Ah, a wanderer, yes? No? Pilgrim, perhaps? You have come to commune with Peryite, Taskmaster and blighted Lord, yes?''" — Kesh the Clean{{ref|name=SRKesh the Clean|[[Skyrim:Kesh the Clean|Kesh the Clean]]'s dialogue in [[Skyrim:Skyrim|Skyrim]].}}

Peryite's summoning day is the [[Lore:Calendar#Peryite's_Summoning_Day|Ninth of Rain's Hand]].{{ref|name=Daggerfall|Events of [[Daggerfall:Daggerfall|Daggerfall]]}}, but an incense can be created from vampire dust, one silver ingot, a deathbell flower, and a flawless ruby that will allow one to communicate with the Prince.{{ref|name=SROnly|[[Skyrim:The Only Cure|Events]] of [[Skyrim:Skyrim|Skyrim]]}} He "blesses" his worshippers in the form of [[Lore:Disease|diseases]], and is considered one of the more malevolent and destructive Princes.{{ref|name=OO|{{Cite book|On Oblivion}}}} His enemies are the deities [[Lore:Ebonarm|Ebonarm]], [[Lore:Vaermina|Vaermina]], and [[Lore:Mephala|Mephala]]. Peryite has been known to appear as ghostly apparitions of vermin, such as {{Lore Link|skeever}}s.{{ref|name=SROnly|[[Skyrim:The Only Cure|Events]] of [[Skyrim:Skyrim|Skyrim]]}}, and according to ''[[Books:Kyne's Challenge: A Hunter's Companion|Kyne's Challenge]]'' the goddess gives him the spirits of skeevers when they die. The ''[[Lore:Song of Despair|Song of Despair]]'', a poem about the Daedric Princes, states his breath pollutes "both cloud and pool". According to the [[Lore:Demiprince|demiprince]] [[Lore:Fa-Nuit-Hen|Fa-Nuit-Hen]], Peryite is in charge of keeping daedrons - chaotic creatia made sentient from the exertion of Daedric or mortal will - from causing damage in Oblivion, mainly through events known as 'realm-rips'. When asked, Lord Fa-Nuit-Hen says that "trying to keep ahead of it all keeps Peryite mighty busy, but nobody really feels sorry for him - after all, he earned it."{{ref|name=LFNHTRPAYQ2|{{Cite book|Lore:Lord Fa-Nuit-Hen and Tutor Riparius Answer Your Questions 2}}}}

==Worshippers==
:''"Did you leave any alive? The Afflicted are mere vessels for my Blessing. It will spread to others through their touch and my own. Another Overseer will replace Orchendor, when the time comes. For now all is cleansed and ordered."''" — Peryite{{ref|name=OBPeryite|[[Oblivion:Peryite|Peryite]]'s dialogue in ''[[Oblivion:Oblivion|Oblivion]]''}}
[[File:SR-npc-Afflicted Refugee.jpg|thumb|left|An Afflicted Male]]
Peryite's worshippers are not well known or documented, but a particular group known as the Afflicted were {{Lore Link|Breton}}s located within {{Lore Link|the Reach}} of {{Lore Link|Skyrim}} during 4E 201. Peryite's "blessing" for them was infection with a plague, although they were also granted some amount of resistance to it's deadly effects.{{ref|name=SRAfflicted|[[Skyrim:Afflicted Refugee|Afflicted Refugee]]'s dialogue in [[Skyrim:Skyrim|Skyrim]].}} They had unusually bright red skin and the ability to spit poisonous vomit at their enemies, but were eventually killed by Peryite's champion in his quest to kill their overseer, the Wood Elf known as Orchendor. Originally from the town of Cul Aloue in {{Lore Link|High Rock}}, they were 'shepherded' to the Dwemer ruin of Bthardamz.{{ref|name=UAL|{{Cite book|Unsent Afflicted Letter|ns=SR}}}} According to Kesh, Orchendor and the Afflicted were ''"meant to stand ready, awaiting Peryite's command to cover the world with his Blessing."'' The Afflicted also used the titles of 'monk' and 'apostle', as well as strange draconic totems and brews in their worship of Peryite.

:''"You have returned my followers, mortal. The natural order is restored, and for this, I thank you. Perhaps they have learned the folly of attempting to touch a Daedra Prince. Take this, with my blessing. May it bring you order.''" — Peryite{{ref|name=OBPeryite}}

==Notes==
* The ''[[Lore:Pocket Guide to the Empire, 1st Edition/Invocation|1st Edition of the Pocket Guide to the Empire]]'' states that Peryite's "Foundation is Falling Rock".
* There is apparently an ancient shrine to Peryite located on the {{Lore Link|Summerset Isles}} that depicts Altmer fighting [[Lore:Sload|"slug-like creatures"]] according to the section on the Isles in ''Kyne's Challenge''.
