[[File:SR-npc-Night Mother.jpg|right|thumbnail|The Night Mother's sarcophagus]]
The '''Night Mother''' is the Unholy Matron, bride of [[Lore:Sithis|Sithis]], and spiritual leader of the [[Skyrim:Dark Brotherhood|Dark Brotherhood]]. According to Dark Brotherhood beliefs, she is the wife of [[Lore:Sithis|Sithis]] and bore five children. Despite being a relatively powerful spirit (possibly the Daedric Lord [[Lore:Mephala|Mephala]], her corpse is needed for communion with her. She receives prayers from people seeking to arrange assassinations via the [[Lore:A Kiss, Sweet Mother|Black Sacrament]], and relays those desires to the Listener, the mortal leader of the Brotherhood. However, since the destruction of the Brotherhood in Cyrodiil, and the death of the Listener in a riot, the last remaining Skyrim [[SR:Dark Brotherhood Sanctuary|Sanctuary]] has been cut off from contact with the Night Mother. Without a Listener to guide the Dark Brotherhood in way that the Night Mother wants, [[SR:Astrid|Astrid]] has taken complete control of the Brotherhood. They have eschewed the [[Lore:The Five Tenets|tenets]] and traditions of the Dark Brotherhood, and to many are considered no better than a group of mercenaries. Although the Night Mother is no longer respected as she once was, she has a [[SR:The Silence Has Been Broken|plan]] to help change this and restore the Brotherhood to its former glory.
The Night Mother is being transported by [[SR:Cicero|Cicero]] to the Falkreath Sanctuary when his wagon wheel breaks and they are stranded together near [[SR:Loreius Farm|Loreius Farm]]. Cicero and the Night Mother will make it to the Sanctuary with or without the player's help, and will live there until the destruction of the Falkreath Sanctuary. After the quest [[SR:Hail Sithis!|Hail Sithis!]], she will be transported to the [[SR:Dawnstar Sanctuary|Dawnstar Sanctuary]] by [[SR:Babette|Babette]] and [[SR:Nazir|Nazir]], where she will remain indefinitely.

== Notes ==
* She is not technically a game character. Technically she is implemented as a talking activator, meaning she is just an inanimate object with some associated dialogue. Therefore, she does not have a race, health, magicka, FormID, or any other statistics normally associated with game characters. However, she will shed red blood if her corpse husk is attacked within her coffin with a bladed weapon.
