Shivering:Court of Madness

< Factions
SI-icon-Court of Madness.jpg

The Court of Madness is the faction you rise in as you progress through the Main Quest. It is the only main faction and represents the ruling body in the Shivering Isles. Its leader is, of course, Sheogorath the Madgod and Daedric Prince. Immediately below him are the Dukes of Mania and Dementia leading their sides respectively. The ruler of Mania has control over the Golden Saints and oversees the well-being of Mania. On the contrary, the leader of Dementia controls the Dark Seducers and is in charge of the health of Dementia.

Joining

The player is automatically made a member and given the lowest rank of 'Tourist' when they accept the invitation/challenge from Haskill and enter the Shivering Isles for the first time.

Advantages

You will gain access to all the powers, artifacts, spells, and privileges listed below as you rise through the ranks in the Court of Madness. In addition, Xbox 360 players will collect an achievement for each new rank. Some of the privileges are obtained during the quest(s) done under the associated rank, but the majority are given as rewards for completion of the quest.

Since advancing in the main quest is the actual method of advancing through the faction, a particularly nice bonus touch is added to Sheogorath's Throne Room each time you complete another quest in the main storyline/faction. Each time one of the quests is finished, a unique and specific item relating to it is displayed like a relic in the throne room. Almost like a personal Museum of Oddities accounting for major decisions you've made. These are merely decoration, but serve as a nice reminder of the quests.
